Battlefield 3

The Cod 4 screen has ever-so-slightly blurry textures and much less bloom. Not much difference, I say.

BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

 

[Sarcastic Coffeecup]

I am disappointed about the fact that it still looks like MW games with bloom on.
So doesn't that make it BC graphics?

Did you guys really just compare CoD 4 with BF3? Of course the newer game's gonna have better graphics, they're 4 years apart ffs. This should do more justice.

BF3 seems too bright imo, and MW3 looks more detailed. Not to say BF3 won't be a great game but I think MW3 has it beat graphics wise and based on the type of gameplay I prefer CoD more. I'll end it at that.

BF3 looks more "polished".

Well firstly, that is the most boring part of Metro. I'd find the screenshots I took of the underground elements, but they've disappeared. But I do promise you, BF3 has way more in the Graphics department than MW3. And the huge-scaled maps... Hot damn!

 

[Flatline]

You're still arguing about the graphics? What is this, 5th grade?

Come on, guys.

 

[Aetius]

Im sorry, but if I really wanted to play Modern Warfare 3, I would play Modern Warfare 1.

BF3 has alot more innovation.

 

[CynicalCirno]

Error code 1 trying to launch the game... Nice move by Origin.

I fell in love with this game after I've seen alpha and the gameplay trailers, but now?

Which is to say "more than MW3, but in the scope of games as a whole, not much at all."

I've managed to get around this. Log onto the battlelog direct from your browser, and go from there.

That's the only thing I did... This game doesn't really support left hand players as well, since so many buttons are set to be chat buttons and can't be reconfigured.

Maybe it's the area.

Well if you really are in Israel, I doubt you'd be having problems if I can get on here in the UAE...

All of this stuff has been addressed, a lot of features have been turned off or not implemented into the beta.

Hey guys. n.n
I don't... Play a lot of shooters, 'cause I'm not very competitive or anything. Still, I'm quite enjoying what I've played of the beta so far, but for the fact that I don't have anyone to play with. Has anyone thought about making a platoon yet? I'm having trouble finding any furry clans playing on the ps3. :/

Pro tip: Don't ever mix with people just because they're furry. Furry should never have to be a requirement for anything!

It isn't a requirement. They just tend to be nicer to me than the average FPS player I've met. =.=
In very general terms.

Well, furries who are often so sickeningly super-sweet to those who they just meet are probably the ones you'd best avoid (in general terms), trust me on that one. I gotta warn you though, the furries in FAF are more often than not rather crass to the newcomers, which is how we filter out those aforementioned "Yiffeh time, woof woof =^.^=" types.

Welcome, anyway!

Bolded is actually very valid. A lot of your typical online FPS players tend to downtalk anyone with a lower K/DR or killcount than them. Never mind the fact that they're GAMES and those numbers don't really matter...

That's why I prefer to play games like Killing Floor with just friends. They are games after all, and the purpose of games is to have fun, but in the casual military FPS market, everyone seems to have forgotten that.

It's also one of the many reasons I gave up the F2Ps like Combat Arms besides their rampant hacker problems. I'd settle for a good old Unreal match with friends over the PSN or what have you any day. Hell, Ol' Faithful Battlefront 2 is great to play with friends too!

Though I have to say BF3 looks great, and knowing DICE, the beta is most certainly not representative of the final game. This should lure some prepubescent CoD junkies out from their rage harems and force them to use teamwork rather than go "LOLSOLO I GOT 1337 KILLS 0 DEATHS YOU ALL SUCK!!!11!!1!!" Besides, Battlefield is actually more fun imo.

Click here for a major turn-off.

Actually, I agree with this.
100 Players on a map made for 32? No. Just... No.
If EA aren't strict on this, it could turn into the travesty of mods that unlock everything on MW2 servers.

But don't forget that the server owners are paying out the arse to run a server that supports 100 players and adds to the fun by putting the game forwards in its potential with modded servers, and EA are not allowing them to do so. Very different from the "modded" servers in MW2, which were more of a cheat than anything else.

I still doubt a 100 player server would be very fun.
Meh.
