This is just another game in a genre that has been done to death. And people are getting themselves worked up into an orgasmic state in 135 pages over a game that has absolutely nothing new or interesting in it. Just like the idiots excited about the new CoD game that is going to be the same crap dished up with the old name crossed and a new one written over the top.

lol.. Alright champ ..


Anyone got any more news?? So keen for another vid.

what do you want it to bring thats new? there is only so much you can bring to a game and BF have always brought new stuff to the table with each release. Back to WoW for troll boy!

There's a thousand other threads to post in, don't come into a fan thread and bad mouth the topic. Off to the pub with ye'.
On the contrary you need differing opinions otherwise it's just a bunch of guys circle-jerking each other about how good the game is hopefully going to be.

True, although it'd help if that wizzball's points where valid. He's just an obvious troll.

Thank you, took the words right outa my mouth. Difference in opinion is one thing, being a troll is another.

People have bringing out cars for years now, i'm sick of them. All they are is the same thing over and over again but people still buy them!

Anyhoo, roll on another trailer or something other than artist impressions of maps.

You do have a fair point, allthough presented in a passive agressive generalised way, so you must have some great ideas that could improve the genre? Want to share?

Wizball: The Game, everyone takes shots at wizball's nuts from mounted guns as he dances around the map.

BF3 beta hasn't even been released yet but this game has caused so much hype purely because of the graphics. No one else has mentioned a story line, or even a long enough video (an hour) of multiplayer recording. To me its just Bad Company 2 with better graphics. EA/Dice can sugar coat it all they want but Bad Company 2 was the worst game I have ever played. Well besides the guns & graphics of course, but the gameplay, input lag, servers, etc were absolutely pathetic. They released a few patches and gave up, if this happens to BF3 they'll just do the same thing.

I have 0 problem with input lag in BC2... sure you're not talking about BF2 there?

So we should reserve excitement until MP footage is shown and disregard how awesome the game currently looks?

Hey for me, give me a new engine where I can level stuff, sweet graphics and Wake Island/Sharqi and i'll pay $70 for that alone.

They're really pushing the marketing on cod mw3 to compete with this, it was on every ad break during state of origin and on the display of their desk during the game

Never had an Input lag or servers or anything for that matter. I have a CTD issue which was resolved by updating my drivers and that was it. Sounds like you have a lemon of a PC\Internet Connection...

Lol BF2 was fine, if not perfect in comparison to Bad Company 2.

I'm guessing this thread is built up on the 12 minute youtube video of BF3 that only shows how 'cool' the graphics look? well at least instead of assuming people needed to upgrade they will force them to with only have DX10/DX11 supported & probably a Hex-Core/8-core raping game. If you base a game on how it looks then you might as well buy a 'Xbox 360' and go play Black Ops and think your extreme, just like the rest of console retards.

Then you clearly haven't played either of them. The netcode in BF2 was shit. BC2 was brilliant in comparison. You should ask your seeing eye dog for another opinion.

The worst server lag was in 2142 on the Titans. That convinced me EA/DICE were taking the piss.
