Battlefield 3 New Features:
Battlefield 3 includes a number of new and/or improved multiplayer features.
-Destruction 3.0 : With Frostbite 2.0 comes the Destruction 3.0 engine. This engine allows debris that can injure/kill players and micro-destruction, as well.
-Suppressive Fire : When you fire at an enemy and your shots go near him, the enemy's health regeneration stops and resets, their accuracy drops, and the edges of their screen become blurred. While suppression is most effective with the Support class and their LMG's, any weapon is capable of suppressing an enemy.
-Disable Vehicles : Vehicles can now be disabled before they are destroyed. This makes land vehicles immobile (but turrets are still operable), while air vehicles become extremely difficult to control. When a vehicle is disabled, it can be repaired, but will also slowly bleed health.
-Vehicle Health Regeneration : Vehicles will now slowly regenerate health when damaged. Repairs from an Engineer are still far more effective, and regen is canceled if the vehicle is disabled. Vehicles will start regemrating when it is under 75% health (server option).
-Console Server Browser : At Gamescom 2011, DICE confirmed that both consoles will have a server browser option.

-Immense Customization System : DICE claims that there will be years worth of unlocks and specializations to use in multiplayer.
Each kit (all weapons, gadgets, attachments, etc.) will take roughly 100 hours to unlock
Over 80 vehicle specializations (one secondary weapon slot, one gadget slot, and one upgrade slot)
Pistol variations available 
Weapon Fire Modes : Returning from Battlefield 2, the player now has the option of choosing what fire-mode some weapons can fire in, instead of a single fixed mode. 
Prone : The ability to go prone returns from Battlefield 2. The player is also able to dive, though there is a delay in the ability to fire as the player does so. 
Scope Glare : If a high power (6x and above) and is aimed in the direction of a player, a visible glare/glint shines off of the scope. This was added to balance the addition of the prone position. 
Commo-Rose : Also returning from Battlefield 2 is the commo-rose, or communication rose. 
BattleRecorder : A feature to record gameplay and screenshots.
According to screenshots of "Battlelog" there will be 30 or more ranks in Multiplayer and, in comparison to Battlefield Bad Company 2's multiplayer, Battlefield 3 will have 10 times the unlocks over weapons, weapon attachments, gadgets and an unlock tree for vehicles alone. In addition, unlocks will be more spread through the ranks.
A new feature to be in Battlefield 3 is "Service Star." Service Stars are added to the player's weapon skill badge, kit, vehicles, and their overall rank, and allows for further promotion.
Weapons unlocks obtained from the co-op campaign will be carried over to Multiplayer.

DICE said there are over 50 weapons to unlock, and also each primary weapon will have three attachment slots ranging from foregrips to optics. Weapon accessories are unlocked per  weapon unlike in Bad Company 2, so unlocking an attachment such as a Red Dot Sight while using one class still enables it for every other class that can use that weapon.

DICE says that it will take over "100 hours" to unlock everything for a kit in Multiplayer. They also said that there are over 20 vehicles at the player's disposal with the vehicles split into 12 different "classes".

According to Alan Kertz, the mounted MGs won't be in Battlefield 3 as there are portable deplyable bipods on LMGs.
