Yes, we use to use the jet taxi tactic in clan matches too.. But I never agreed with it as an even remotely realistic thing to do. I don't know, call me a sucker for simulation I guess.

From that blog above, http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/batt...-overview.aspx

Quote:
From the opening park, you need to push underground through a dark, bombed-out metro tunnel section, and then up and out onto the downtown city streets for the final confrontation in front of the Paris stock exchange. This seamless transition in the map between contrasting areas is something that makes it feel like so much more than your typical walled-in multiplayer arena. For a sense of scale, each of the different areas in Operation Métro would be large enough to house a very good Team Deathmatch experience.

Speaking of which. We are bringing Team Deathmatch back to the multiplayer menu! It's been absent since Battlefield 1942, and to quote Lars Gustavsson, “It would almost be a criminal offense not to offer TDM to our fans, especially with the tactical destruction and realistic soldier movement that Frostbite 2 brings to the game”. Our efforts to let you play Battlefield 3 your way also means that you will have the option to play infantry only matches, for that up close and personal touch.

I really hope this game doesn't turn into BFBC2.5 one of the best things with BF2 I thought was having conquest only doesn't dilute the player base into sub sections.

Conquest ftw IMO.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

No prone jumping
No self healing medics
No medic can revive unlimited fallen soldiers

In my opinion, the medic class completely ruined BF2. I got so sick and tired of having the impossible task of dealing with a group of 3+ medics all dropping medic packs and paddling each other.

No self healing? Good luck with that.

For the first month/few months it will be people working out exploits, ie. pronejumping, c4 throwing, and the developers trying to fix them. Same as bf2.

I just want BF2, 2. The same but better. My favourite online game of all time. So so much fun. Don't want less classes. Don't want different map types. All I want, bang bang bang.

Won't be playing those modes.

I don't mind the medics, c4 throwing doesn't phase me, but prone jumping and halo jumping shit me up the wall. Hopefully you can't just jump as often as you like.

Whats wrong with rush?


Best servers are the ones that rotate all modes, each map is something new.

I think it's a good thing actually. It'll mean those that are playing conquest will be more likely to play it properly

Rush ftw. I hate running around in circles capturing empty "flags" and getting shot in the back by campers.

Conquest in BC2 sucked I thought, I only played rush. I think it had to do with not enough players. You would go to cap a flag, get it then try defend only to die. Then your teammates wont defend and try and cap another flag causing this flag to get lost.
Was just a massive circle of cap then lose, cap then lose.

It wasnt as bad in bf2 with more players. So I reckon I will be playing both.
Rush is just as good when you get behind enemy lines and cause havoc.
