That's right! We want you! To join one of our
Destructoid Battlefield 3 Platoons. Joining is easy, here's all the information you need (This will be a pretty short blog).
Battlelog is Battlefield 3's way of tracking stats, forming platoons and ultimately helping Battlefield 3 players find and connect with friends to play online with. Since Destructoid is all about the community (because let's be honest, we have the best damn community ever here) Battlelog now makes it easier than ever to hook up with your fellow Dtoiders for some serious carnage.
Finding platoons in Battlelog is pretty basic and Destructoid gives you a whopping three options to choose from. Here they are in no particular order.
First we have the PC Platoon:
Destructoid PC Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work).
If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid PC platoon you can look up
Swishiee (founder) or
DtoidShark(leader) and that should get you to the right spot.
Next up is the PS3 Platoon:
Destructoid PS3 Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work).
If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid PS3 platoon you can look up
Revolutionaire (founder) and that should get you to the correct platoon.
And last but not least the Xbox 360 Platoon:
Destructoid Xbox 360 Battlefield 3 Platoon (must be logged in to Battlelog in order for the link to work)
If for whatever reason you're unable to locate the Destructoid Xbox 360 platoon you can look up
Chillybilly (founder) or
MrAndyDixon (leader).
So that's pretty much the gist of it, simply log in to
Battlelog and search for
Destructoid in the "
Platoons" section or search for one of the above Founders or Leaders.
You can also feel free to leave your Origin name in the comments below so that other Origin Dtoiders can add you as friends.
We look forward to seeing all of you on the battlefield.
HOOAH!
Just a note to people new to Battlelog: it won't even let you login to the website until you've played the game at least one time. (This is true even if you already have an EA account.) Took me forever to figure that out :)
Anywho, who made the platoon logos and why is the ps3 one different? Just curious.
@Andy You can login before hand if you have the PC version tied to your account. That's the only way to get in early though.
@Lenigod We each made the logo for our own platoon. The PS3 one has more detail to it, which I like. In fact, the PS3 one was the first one made before ChillyBilly and I made the platoons for the other platforms.
I'm simply a detail oriented douchebag with too much time, is all.
