DICE’s Alan Kertz, one of the lead designers of Battlefield 3 (and an avid Tweeter), has confirmed that Battlefield 3 will ship with 9 maps, a fact we’ve known since GamesCom. However, Kertz also revealed that all 5 game modes — Conquest, Conquest 64, Rush, Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch — will be available on all 9 maps.
In addition to the 9 maps, those who have pre-ordered Battlefield 3 (1.25 million of you), will be getting additional 4 maps from the Back to Karkand expansion pack: Strike At Karkand, Gulf of Oman, Sharqi Peninsula and Wake Island. Back to Karkand is scheduled for release approximately 1 month after the release of Battlefield 3.

Thats totally sick dude

Cant wait for bf3!!! It is gunna be amazing

Only 9 maps? Wow.

13 if you pre-order

One of these maps is the equivalent in size to all the COD maps put together.

One map equivalent to the size of all COD maps put together?

WOW!

for 9 maps are good considering they are big ass maps lol

Nice. Cant wait to play on Karkand again! For those of you who have pre-ordered and haven't played bf2, KARKAND is epic.

9 maps each one supporting 5 game modes.
So 9*5 = 45 maps in total almost. Some game modes would have differences between maps overall layout the same.
Along with the fact quite big maps and they are being scaled down for consoles etc
It alot of work.........
Hope BF3 has alot of DLC that cheap/free
