also, the guy from planetxbox360 did another article about MW3 > BFF3 (hurr durr)

http://www.planetxbox360.com/article_15270/Five_Reasons_Modern_Warfare_3_Will_Trump_Battlefield_3

the people on facebook defending CoD are just so funny...
personA-BF3 will be better than MW3
personB- LOL you can't prove it, neither of the games released yet
personC- yeah, MW3 will own BF3
personB- I'm with you mang.

....hah.

Hmm, between having to upgrade my PC, DLCs (already), and the no-Steam bs, I feel pretty torn on this one. Game looks amazing but I'm still not committed.

The irony in that BF3 vs MW3 article is that I didn't even know MW3 was in development until he actually wrote about it. CoD is fine for random pub stomps, or playing silly with friends. BF3 was always much much more teamplay oriented and had better play modes.

I haven't played a BF game yet, as I hear Bad Company 2 doesn't count, but I still enjoyed that game although I had it on 360.

Looking forward to hitting this game up on the PC, if it plays as good as it looks in the trailers, it'll be well worth the investment

BC2 doesn't count. Its not a bad game but it isn't really in the spirit of battlefield.

Sad that MW3 still going to sell better. Despite being a worse game in literally every way.

I hope Mw3 won't die, so that way it'll be like a filter, dumb people will play CoD, and only clever people will remain on Bf3 <.<

Squad members can spawn on any squad member instead of just the leader like it was in Alpha.

Hmm that's interesting. I'm not too sure what to think about it honestly. On one hand it's better since if the SL dies you don't lose your squad's progress, but on the other you can get anyone past the frontlines mass spawn on him whether or not he's your SL, and do easy backstabs.

This may be just nostalgia talking through me, but I think I would have preferred spawns remaining only on SL or beacons set by him.

Wasn't the squad member limit only 4 in the alpha? If that's the case I think it might be fine, the real problem would be if you could have 6 people all spawning on each other and running around hiding behind the front lines with the entire squad respawning immediately on any surviving member. With those larger squads the BF2 style would have made much more sense.

I agree. 6 people spawning in is too much. Though to be honest, I kind of like the idea of only being able to spawn in on the leader. It makes having a leader not redundant.

well sucks for you since if you've ever played BC2 you'll easily see that BF3 is exactly the same thing but with airplanes.

There's a rumor that 3d spotting is removed for infantry. God I hope it's true.

from this guy (not a DICE employee, but played the latest build at gamescon)
http://twitter.com/#!/d1ApRiL/status/103756942308155392

Really blows to hear they are reverting full scale back to the BC2 squad system. I hope it's not because of the alpha testing, where squad leaders were randomly assigned and would regularly go AFK as a result. That would be a very stupid reason.

What is 3D spotting exactly?

By the way, April is the guy who runs all of the Battlefield stats sites, so if he says it I'm willing to accept it as legitimate. It's unlikely someone like him would say anything unless it was true given his role in the community.

It's the way spotting works in BFBC2, so that you see an icon above the enemy's head instead of seeing an icon on the map.

Still thinking on whether I'm going to buy this. If 3D spotting is removed for infantry that seems okay. Maybe if infantry get a "last position" spotted mechanic that'd be a good compromise.

Otherwise flying around in a jet and not being able to do anything is always fun :D (I sucked at jet flying).
