We suspect there's a good many of you ready to dedicate a gross amount of your personal time to Battlefield 3's multiplayer component. Your significant others will be ignored; children will be unbathed; dogs will be unwalked. Try as you might, you're powerless to avoid it. This is a fait accompli.

But despite your destiny, you still don't know all that much about it! Like ... what kind of guns it has? KH2002? Got it! How about a M40A5? Oh, you know it's got that. If you were as worried as we were that your trusty MP412 wouldn't be making an appearance, well ... rest easy 'cause Battlefield 3 totally has that gun too!

But what about maps? B3's got nine, including Caspian Border and Operation Métro. Modes? How does Rush, Squad Rush, Team Deathmatch, Squad Deathmatch, Conquest, and the PC-only Conquest 64 sound? Toss in nearly two dozen vehicles, a bunch of soldier equipment and specializations, and you're beginning to appreciate just how much raw data is in this Battlefield 3 fact sheet. Head on past the break to rationalize your future dependency.
