BATTLEFIELD 3: DUE 25/10/2011

Postby KWAK » Sat Aug 06, 2011 10:56 pm

Hey all!

I know there has been a few of us that have already pre-ordered it, so we might as well get "Team Atomic" rolling. Post below if you have pre-ordered or plan on purchasing it.

SO far that I know of:

I havent pre ordered it yet cause i was hoping it would come up on steam but it appears EA has announced its not going to be there for pre ordering and after just spending the day at the time attack challenge in sydney (damn you kiwis are good at drifting btw lol) i dont really have the money to pre order it yet. I will though, i will make sure of it!

Hmm so basically they are saying give us all of your personal details and your computer details or gtfo. I dont care if they collect information about their own products but collecting everything about my computer is a little bit annoying. The other problem is 90% of users wont even know about this happening.

Why oh why does EA have to be the publisher of the bf franchise :(

New info on the Origin service in there...looks like it's the same kind of launcher that Combat Arms uses being browser based. I'm rapidly losing faith...

To be honest krayy i lost faith as soon as i found out that it was on the damned frostbite engine i hate so much. In all fairness most of my experince with that engine is on a console but still. The web based launching is absolutely ridiculous. Remind me why we have to have origin installed then if the game launches from a browser.... The other brwoser based issue i have is im using the aurora release of firefox which is pre beta version of it so i doubt the plugins to launch the game will work anyway.

He says its not cod like but also states "but it seems like I won’t have to wait long to be customising my class, and I’m happy about that." and that sounds extremely cod like and is also something that drives me up the wall. I will wait a few more days and once i can get into the beta i will try it mainly cause i try everything when its beta... (even downloaded the windows 8 dev release lol. Looks like ill never be leaving windows 7 or linux if i can make games play nicely)

I really wish it was just BF2 with some nicer graphics, some new maps some more accurate shooting/dying stuff but doesnt seem to be the case so far. I guess it will be like finally getting to drive the car of your dreams and it turning out to be crap. Will post up my impressions after actually playing it. Hopefully i will be pleasently surprised.

TL:DR?? Basically im pissed with ea and dice and dont hold high hopes
