Battlefield 4: Chinese vehicles, shoot-while-swimming confirmed

4.5
Battlefield 4 developer DICE has answered some burning questions regarding Battlefield 4's vehicles and marine combat.

The studio has confirmed that the game will feature a whole new selection of Chinese vehicles thanks to the addition of that faction.

It revealed one new vehicle - the Chinese Z-10W Attack Heli - in a new screenshot pictured above. Some of the other Chinese vehicles in the game include:

Type 99 MBT
ZFB-05 Armored Car
Z-9 Haitun Transport Heli
DV15 Interceptor Attack Boat
The studio also discussed one of the game's biggest new gameplay mechanics - naval combat.

"Amphibious Assault will play a big role in Battlefield 4 as we've added attack boats like the RCB-90 (U.S.) and jet-skis. Controlling the sea in addition to the land and air will play a crucial role in victory," it explained.

DICE confirmed that, for the first time in the BF series, infantry will be able to use one-handed weapons and gadgets while swimming - useful in the case of a pre-explosion bail-out.

The PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 Battlefield 4 release date is set for October 29 in the US and November 1 in the UK . Next-gen versions will be out "this holiday" alongside the new consoles.

lel shooting while swimming is cool :)


I guess it will be a pretty cool feature, Not being able to shoot while in water was pretty annoying in previous battlefield games.


Especially when you are left like a sitting duck with people mowing you down over and over again.

Still unsure if I should wait for my Xbone to get BF4 or just get the 360 version. It'd be nice to know what happens if you buy premium on the 360 edition then trade up to the Xbone edition do you still get the premium or do you have to pay again?? Hmmm.
