A Battlefield 3 paperback and eBook has been spotted on Amazon and Barnes & Noble and is due to be released alongside the much-anticipated shooter towards the end of the year.

According to Amazon's details the paperback is 400 pages long and is attributed to bestselling author and former British SAS operator Andy McNab.

Meanwhile the Barnes & Noble listing states that Battlefield 3 the book is written by McNab and Patrick Bach, Battlefield 3's Executive Producer at DICE. It's listed as an eBook.

The book will be published by Grand Central Publishing and will be released on October 25, according to Amazon. Barnes & Noble simply lists the release as November 2011.




McNab is the one with his face deliberately obscured (reportedly for security purposes).

McNab rose to prominence in 1993 when he published his account of the failed Special Air Service (SAS) patrol, Bravo Two Zero. The patrol, the most highly decorated one since the Boer War, was deployed into Iraq during the First Gulf War in January 1991. McNab, the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he left the SAS in February 1993, went on to become a bestselling author of action-thrillers.

In early June EA revealed McNab's assistance had been sought regarding motion-capture and weapons handling advice. Word that he's collaborating on a book project, however, is new.

"Valve has announced that it has released new server and client code to improve its Steam download service.

The company says that the changes improve the service for both publishers and users. Valve has increased the aggregate bandwidth of the system, which will help it cope with spikes in demand for new releases, as well as service more locations around the globe. Users will also benefit during game updates. Instead of re-downloading an entire file during an update, the service will now only replace those parts of that file that are actually being updated. Therefore, game updates will be smaller and quicker. The increase in aggregate bandwidth also benefits publishers in that it has allowed Valve to write new publishing tools so publishers can ship more product quickly.

Valve says that the new code will enable future client releases that include improvements such as: game prioritization, download scheduling, bandwidth throttling, and downloading a game update while you're playing that game (the update will be applied when you leave the game)."

"It's technically possible to have earthquakes in multi-player using Frostbite 2. We feel like kids walking into sweet shops with Frostbite - it has so many features we never knew we needed, and we're still figuring out how best to use them.

"It's just the start for this engine. So far, the only limit to the things we can do with it are our own creative restraints."
