Battlefield 3 Gameplay Designer Leaves the BF3 Team.
Battlefield 3 Core Gameplay Designer, Alan 'Demize99' Kertz tweeted yesterday that he is no longer working on Battlefield 3. He has added that he has  NOT  left D.I.C.E, nor will he be doing so anytime soon, he is just working on a different team. Speculation is that he working in Mirror's Edge 2. He further states that Battlefield 3's gmaeplay is/will be in the "very capable" hands of Gustav Halling and Tim Kjell, both primary Gameplay Designers on Battlefield 3.

Alan Kertz, being haggled with questions on BF3 pre and post-beta as well as after release, and answering questions on "fix this" or "nerf that", he's proven himself time and time again.

It's good to see the DICE is one of the few companies that has true veterans that stick around once a game is completed. Here's to Alan and the future of DICE.
