this keeps getting better and better.
 
I need this game. I miss BF2 and 64 players killing each other. PC all the way.

Yeah, and I'm not too happy with BC2 and Black Ops.
 
Looks cool, the pictures remind me of CoD4. Hopefully it will be good, I didn't really like bc2 (i would be constantly exploding from tanks) or medal of honor (one big sniper battle)
 
I recently started playing BFBC2 on Xbox 360 and I love it! I'm da** excited to be a part of this from the beginning now! From the small amount we've seen this game looks amazing. I'm really glad we have a competitor to COD that keeps the innovation and genre moving forward.

So 64 players on PC,...any hint yet as to whether they are expanding the amount of players for consoles?

Also I wouldn't think that jets are going to be exclusive to one version. Was it that way in any of the previous versions?

BC2 is awesome and IMO is already better than the last two CoD games as far as MP goes. Dedicated Servers and accurate weapons (both actual accuracy and power) plus the Vietnam add on was better than Black Ops for sure.

As long as Battlefield 3 sticks to what made BC2 better than other military shooters we're golden. Reading the article in game informer and it appears they are plus adding some cool stuff. It should have no problem being the legit military shooter we've wanted.
 
:lol

COD's an emire, this will have to be retardedly amazing to bring it down IMO.

It just might be, you never know.

I for one am a long time COD supporter, and I still support the franchise. I've been playing it since it debuted on the Xbox 360, every version, SP and MP. I personally enjoy the MW versions more than the Treyarch entries but I play them all. This time something just got old about them. I played the he** out of BO and enjoyed it for the most part but I was looking for something more.

Tried BFBC2 and once I got the hang of it I loved it. I even got my 3 other regular game night buddies to make the switch. As of right now, it's our favorite FPS MP game and we're playing it every Tues and Thurs. NONE of us are purchasing the map expansion for BO either and are about to purchase the Vietnam expansion for BF instead.

I'm not saying it's the norm or that everyone is bailing on COD. I also know people are diehard COD fans too. However, if the four of us, that have been with the franchise since it's beginning and ONLY played that out of the offerings of FPS's in the past....well there is a chance it might happen.

Truthfully, I don't care either way if there is a "winner" and I'm going to still play both. It will just come down to which one I decide to keep and invest my time in. Again, that will mean one of them will lose money as I won't be ponying up for expansions, etc like I always did in the past.

I like it when games like this have competition. It keeps them trying unlike games like Madden where I think they don't have any competitors pushing them.

For me it just comes down to preference. They are both FPS MP's, yes, but some people prefer a more realistic, team based, strategy game and that's what I like about BF. That's what made my buddies and I make the switch.

We love the gameplay or "feel" of COD but we always hoped with each new version we would get the team/ strategy that's in BF. Its just never really changed and we felt overall that COD BO actually kind of took a step back with what we preferred. We're a team when we play COD. Go ahead, call us campers, we don't take offense! :lol BO feels like it's actually catering to run and gunners, shotty guys, all that jazz. That's fine, I know people love those types of games. He** people like HALO for some reason too! :dunno :lol I just want something more real war like, that's what I prefer.

Josh are you playing on Xbox?

Yeah, thats one of the best things about BC2 is that in order to win you have to have a team that can play together while doing their own thing. Me and Kain4521 from here got on a team the other day and won like 10 matches in a row cause we had an awesome team.

CoD is still awesome but the lag/glitching is what eventually has made me run away a bit from CoD. In BC2 there are BS moments but being dedicated server based 99% if your kills or getting killed are legit. Plus when you snipe you have to factor in bullet arc which is cool.

Yup, my gamer tag on Xbox is The Josh023. There are several folks from the board that play BC2. Me, Kain, Dino Last, MFoga all play BC2 as well. We enjoy the crap out of it.

I'm not saying this won't be good - it looks great - but it seems as though whenever a new FPS comes out everybody says "this will be the new call of duty".... which hasn't happened in the last four years, and honestly I doubt it will in the future.
