Battlefield 3 out Fall 2011

[stankowalski]

The beta code is like 2 months old, the beta is strictly for testing network load capacity although some little things are being fixed from the feedback. Don't worry. Not to mention Microsoft frowns on demo/betas being over 2gig so they had less to work with.

Yeah the code is old and nowhere near the final version. So hopefully they've already fixed the prone issue and the grenade issue. I can't tell you how many time i've thrown a grenade only to have it stick on a leaf and blow my face off.

Nobody cares about your k-d ratio in this game....I've played with people who went 4-17 in the beta and they were great teammates and were able to help us get the win on offense.....

This. We used to play rush a ton on BC2 and we would have guys who were horrible at gunning, but they would go to the front lines for us and drop ammo and med-kits. We could go in unloading clips and know that more ammo was just around the corner. Teamwork is definitely key.

Rofl, I thought I could throw it through a window but that clearly didn't work.

Also, I hate how you can't "cook" grenades.

[Zaximus]

Yeah it's hard to get used to the non-cooking part of grenades. I have also died many times to a grenade getting stuck somewhere on a leaf or something.

[stankowalski]

Yeah i'm not getting the non-cooking of grenades either. Seems like that should be a no brainer as it is an actual tactic used when throwing real grenades.

Can anybody get on the servers right now? Mines not connecting to EA.

I hate the beta is over, I wanted to play last night. The 25th can't get here soon enough.

this franchise plays so sluggish. will rent 3 to give it a chance, ugh.

just don't understand the popularity.

killzone has a similar issue with me. heavy gunplay feel.. gives me headaches.

I always heard it was discouraged since the fuze length isn't always the same for every grenade.

The game is a team based game, objective based, not Rambo CoD style. You take your time, look around corners, communicate, heal/drop ammo crates, etc, with the goal of taking points.

It's just different. Why would we want another CoD clone out there? That's boring.

Yes...I only enjoy run and gun twitch shooters like CoD. :rolleyes:

lol I actually enjoyed MAG.. which is quite similar.

BFMP is just really disoriented. There actually is tactical team based games out there that play fluidly...I like..doesn't mean I don't like the FPS concept that Battlefield has.
