COD defense force back at it again. Anyway how are people switching from COD which is already the top selling/most played game. God these games aren't even out yet, at least let the full games come out before you jump to idiotic conclusions.

after playing the beta on both consoles i own(ps360) i have come to conclusion that this game is quite boring. Its feels like BC2.1. Forgotten how boring BF is. Plus the graphics are shit. Even the leaked blackops closed beta i had last year on JTAG looks better than this. Is it me or has BF3 gone more noob freindly. Ive have seen people use rockets alot in the tube, its fuckng annoying.

Nope, mw2.1(mw3)is still much more fun, but thats my view as im not a fan of territory & objective based game which BF mainly is. I prefer the classic shooter style of run & gun, its plain fun as GAMES should be, but i did enjoy the first BF while it lasted. BF2 was ok the first few weeks but u get that same feeling of tiredness of playing as apoosed to COD annoying but addictive multiplayer. Looks like MW3 will slaughter BF3 franchise again. Poor EA. All those billboard and advert they are spending on here in the UK, all a waste.

I'll defo buy Uncharted 3 now on day1 as i though BF would be the game that finaly delivers but after playing it, feels the same as BC2. Looks like another COD for me again this year on FPS genre.

Well if you mean Cod people going back to cod yes, but if you mean battlefield people going to cod no. All the people i know that play cod all day and everyday will not switch if their life depended on it. After reading the new gameinformer mw3 preview i was not impressed with the way its heading.Even the person previewing wasnt impressed. Why would you want to play a game that is a stepdown? I did my research on this game. Im still sticking to BF3. Cod4 was the best Call of Duty. Im not saying bf3 is better than mw3 blah blah blah ,im just saying dont expect change for mw3. If you like buying the same game every year like madden than go ahead.

By the way is the new Operation Flashpoint good? I need an honest opinion. I really want a good tactical singleplayer game. And no not socom. That game blows!!!!

[mrsatan]

Yeah, I wish we had some good ole Ghost Recon or Swat 4 right about now.

[Jdub895O]

hell friggin yeah. Thats what im talkin about. I think i still have swat 4.I had to install rogue spear the other day. They really dont make games like that anymore. Most games are dumbed down for the casual crowd. Sad isnt it?

[DasTier]

What is with this link between Madden and COD, I love the Battlefield franchise, I love the Madden franchise, but i don't like COD, so why is there this assumption that people who love one must love the other?

[mrsatan]

Yeah, tactical games are no where near the level they once were. I remember playing the original Ghost Recon and being amazed at the difficulty level.

[Angrymorgan]

Not me, already got mw2 so pretty much already played mw3 = /

[gamernova]

*yawn* I pre-ordered both. Not a life decision for me.

[ginsunuva]

Only fools preorder games.

Wise people wait to see if they turn out good, because even the best of the best sometimes flop.

[Ocean]

Making that decision based on a BETA? of which one of its purposes was to to test servers etc before the games release....have fun with MW3 then and we'll enjoy BF3 upon release

The only people going to CoD are the ones who would have gotten it anyways. I don't even see where all the hate for BF3 is coming from, everyone I know that has played it said they'd rather have it that CoD (besides the few hardcore COD fanbois I know because they can't set in 1 spot the whole game in BF). The only bad decision IMO with the beta is they used a map without tanks and etc, which was prolly so the CoD players would give it a chance.

To be completely honest I've bought every CoD and theyve all felt the same but with worse map design and unbalanced gameplay with each new game. I loved CoD2&4 but after that it was meh, I only kept WaW for the zombie mode (same with BO) and sold Mw2 after a month. That's CoD though, Ive bitched about them all but still bought them (not buying mw3 though), same with some of my friends all they do is complain about the games the whole time their playing but once a new one comes out they're standing in line at midnight.

[EVO-OM3GA]

From my understand a lot of gamers intended on getting BOTH games.

There are some that are disappointed with the BETA, but a lot more are happy with it, even with glitches and bugs as they are getting to at least test the game out, the same cannot be said for MW3.

I was always gonna get MW3 anyway, but BF is a good franchise and BF3 looks good from the footage I have seen.

[andibandit]

After playing the beta im not sure im going to get it, it felt like i was just playing BF:BC2 again. Would definitively get it if i had a powerful PC. Getting MW3 for sure.

[ginsunuva]

Does every single person NEED one military fps constantly to play?

[pctrollv4]

you dont "switch back" to COD...if you do that, then you were always a COD player cause if you are even a little bit smart you would know that the beta def does not represent the final game and i bet you, bf3 will come out with a lot less bugs than rage did on pc, yet ppl praise rage and their developer and here comes bf3 taking a risk with a beta and ppl go back to COD...please, bunch of noobs

[sigfredod]

Well first i understand what a BETA means, so i'm not disapointed at all with the beta i was solid, fun and dice is on the right track with BF3 still 1 day purchase for me, and MW is a no no
