Battlefield 3

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
My best game so far is 30 kills with 4600+ points.
 
I don't know if it feels that way for anyone else, but the semi-auto snipers are pretty easy to use, and a lot better then the ones in Bad Company 2.
 
This game is absolutely amazing. Never played a battlefield before. Fuck CoD, I'm making the switch.

I might download the beta for PS3 since I'm not on XBL Gold right now, how long does it last?

The beta lasts until the 10th.

And your stats won't carry over to the full game
 
This game is the shit. Fuck COD. That game pisses me off to no end.


I like team based games. COD is a run and gun, do what you want fuck fest.
 
For anyone who's worried about the state of the game at this point, hopefully this tweet from the community manager will make you feel a little bit better:

A lot of what you are seeing in the BETA doesn't exist in the main game already. 1st Party submissions mean we couldn't give a version of the latest code in the BETA but the retail game is well ahead of what you are seeing now with a lot more bug fixes already in place

Top 10 Battlefield 3 Open Beta issues and how we are addressing them
We’re more than half way through the open beta and thrilled to see so many people still enjoying the game while continuing to give us great feedback. As part of our dedication to showing you how your feedback is directly affecting and improving Battlefield 3, here are the latest Top-Ten Community Issues that we’re addressing.

1. Squad issues: Cannot play with friends within same squad, squads get split up onto opposite teams, etc.
There will be improved squad functionality in the retail game (including but not limited to): the ability to create squads prior to launching into a game, sticking with your squad when joining a game and continuing together through future games (If team balance on the server allows it), inviting friends to a squad and changing squads once in game.


2. Regarding additional Open Beta content and fixes/patches for consoles, including PlayStation 3 issues with chat and party systems
While we would like to patch the Open Beta, DICE is currently focusing its available resources on polishing the retail game.


3. Will DICE have enough time to iron out everything by release?
Please see General Manager Karl Magnus Troedsson's blog post regarding this question.


4. Can we have ability to change settings/options before deployment into match on PC?
The ability to modify your settings via the deploy screen has been added into the retail game.


5. Issues with terrain stability and “falling into the map” on Operation Métro
This has been fixed for the beta via a server side update.


6. Kill cam sometimes zooms out too far or outside the map
This has been fixed for the launch of the retail game.


7. A bug that sometimes keeps some players from being able to sprint
This has been fixed for the launch of the retail game.


8. Screen flickering/stuttering. Blue screen remains after respawn. Game locks up after deploying C4 (360)
This has been fixed for the launch of the retail game.


9. Downed bodies appear to be dead, but are not
The DICE team has been looking into this issue – which is caused by a combination of incidents in a confined area - and are working hard to address the issue for the launch of the retail game.


10. Why is the hit detection seemingly different from Battlefield: Bad Company 2?
The netcode is one of the many things that we are testing as part of the Open Beta and is not necessarily reflective of the final retail game. The DICE team appreciates and has heard the feedback you’ve provided and is further optimizing online play.

I was really hyped up and excited for this game but I just can't play this.

The gameplay style is very boring, I just wanna run around and be in gun battles. The maps are the size of egypt, too much camping, hard to tell who your enemys are.

I'll stick with COD.

Don't say that in here...they'll assume you're trying to start a COD vs BF war. I'm the same way; I try to play it but I'm simply bored the entire time. I put in COD and have more fun in the first 5 minutes...

It's a matter of preference, but BF lovers get pissed off at anyone putting COD in a positive light. Sure, go ahead and point to the little things that haven't been fixed all you want, but at the end of the day it provides more fun than BF. That's why I keep buying it.

RIP COD? lol ok

There's a flip side to that coin.


I'm not sure why people are so concerned about what others enjoy playing. Just shut the fuck up and play the game of your choosing.

No, COD players could care less about Battlefield. It's BF players that keep trying to throw around the "COD Killer" title. We don't give two shits about BF because COD is going to be just fine. Pretty one sided coin actually.

That's a pretty definitive, blanket statement there. I take it you've scoured the internet for every COD forum to see who's talking shit?

Not going to argue with you about it but, to think that COD players aren't bashing BF as well is a bit silly.
