Battlefield 3 or Modern Warfare 3?
What is your favourite

[CakeCom]

I think Battlefield 3's gameplay was better online but MW3's singleplayer campaign was pretty solid.

(owait)

The thread title would make sense if the question was "What game are you going to get when it comes out?" and then I'd say "I'm probably going to get Battlefield 3, because Modern Warfare has been the same rinse / repeat kiddy games for the past 3/4 titles" then you'd probably say "Well that's not right, Battlefield's been doing the same thing. Not only that but lately EA's been proving that they're about as a car without wheels. Are u just fanboying?" then I'd probably say "Well yes Bad Company games have all appeared to be the same rinse/repeat formula of their own, but I've actually bought and attempted to play the past 4 Call of Duty games while avoiding Battlefield Bad Company games, so I think I'll give them a shot" then you might say "Oh well maybe ur not a Battlefield fanboy but u definitely hate CoD" then I'd answer "Yes. Yes I hate CoD. I've paid full price on launch day for every CoD game to date (not including WaW) and 2 of the 4 recent products I purchased satisfied me, to the bare minimum a game can satisfy me. Deal with it."

/rant

Also Imma report this as needing to be moved and possibly severely edited, this doesn't look right at all considering neither games are out yet.

MW3. Ive already got it fully paid out on preorder.

I love MW's single player campaign.

I am still playing BC2, and do not need a new online BF yet.

BFBC is still a pretty solid game, but I think it's important to remember that BFBC is not really a true BF game. It has many similarities to a BF game, but it's more like a new story in the same universe than the next game in the bf series type deal.

I will be getting BF3 because it looks amazing and I love how destructibility affects multiplayer matches. It makes each round very unique and fun. I also think MW's story lines started out solid, but they've been getting shittier and shittier, so I don't really have any more faith in it's single player either.

Still don't see MW3 collector's edition, still not preordered.

BF3 already ordered.

[Original Sin]

Both are preordered. While the determining factor in which one I play more will ultimately be decided not by myself, but by which game my friends pick, I obviously can't tell you which I like more, since neither are out. herp

[x_byakugan_x]

I don't think Stiggy sees any threads outside of Newb noobs section.

But anyway, I STILL haven't preordered BF3.. I'm not sure where is the best choice. I want to avoid origin.

Where do you guys have it preordered? Where should I?

I preorderd for the 360, from BestBuy.ca. They had a "$10 off preorders" sale back during E3, so I got it and a 4 other games.

[x_byakugan_x]

I'm getting it for PC. Is there any truth to Origin being mandatory only on physical copies? Like if I get it off steam or direct2drive, I won't need origin.

Who the fuck cares about origin anymore, look at this:

[x_byakugan_x]

That's ridiculous... I'm sure there'll be some third party shit you can use though. There was one for CS 1.6 LONGGG ago, forgot what it was called.

I wonder if this is going to be something like LoL's out of game client thing. That wouldn't be so bad, but I'm not sure what their plan is exactly. That is a much more legitimate complaint than origin though.

edit: this picture kind of makes me think it is, but still not sure.

Neither. CSFL.

Well considering EA has outright said "Modders are bad and are pretty much all pirates so we will not support them lawlawl" me thinks it will take a long, long time.

I remember Battlefield 2 and Rogue Spear used to use something called something along the lines of The All Seeing Eye... this would be a good alternative if it will still be supported by EA.

Yeah, unfortunately, that's not just an alpha thing like I thought it was. But like I said, at this point I give 0 fucks. Battlefield is Battlefield.

[CakeCom]

Honestly tho, EA's been playing around with customers too much for me to give a fuck about this game anymore.

I'll prolly buy it a few months after the game comes out, but they've definitely lost this immediate customer.

So wait is it pretty much like the LoL launcher dealie guy? I'm fine if it's pretty much a main menu replacement

LoL launches with it's own little like browser doesn't it?

I think Battlefield 3 = Your browser, you just go to their site and start up the game.

[otaku_4_life]

Ehh, kind of. It just feels wrong though. :\
