The first gameplay video for Battlefield Heroes has popped up on YouTube in the form of a tongue-in-cheek trailer starring several members of the BFH development team.

Watch it below before 'they' delete it from the internet update: the trailer is now up at www.battlefield-heroes.com.

The interview in issue 4's Battlefield Heroes preview was only a very small extract. Below is almost everything (all 5,000 words!) from our visit to DICE with Senior Producer Ben Cousins and Lead Designer James Salt which reveals even more about the game. It was an informal discussion rather than a formal interview but I've structured it here as a Q&A (off-topic chatter has been excluded which is why the questions don't always flow naturally). If you have any questions about the new Battlefield post a comment below or head over to the forums and we'll do our best to answer.   Total PC Gaming: Where did the idea for Battlefield Heroes originate?

A plane's trying to take off and 20 people try and stand on its wings and try to stay there as long as they can. Strapping your jeep full of explosives then jumping out and driving it into a base.
