Battlefield 3

aye i got it on the xbox and the pc, but the xbox one is such a boot compared to the beauty of the pc game.

Actually loving it now, since they rebooted the servers there's been a fuck ton less bugs.
 
I think EA have fucked up with the open beta especially on the consoles, console gamers don't expect bugs in their games and the release of it on xbox marketplace etc gives the impression it's an actual demo of the game.

Basically by using this Beta as an advert/demo they might have just fucked themselves with a lot of people, I mean the point of it is to show it off to potential customers but when you have to leave out a lot of graphical effects and shit to get the file to fit under the demo size regulations of Microsoft and Sony's online marketplaces it is counter productive.

Saying that I'm loving it on the PC.
 
I'm not so sure, it's expected to sell millions, as far as I'm aware only about 100,000 are actually playing this across all three platforms. Drop in the ocean as the majority of people complaining are idiotic teenagers from what I can see...

well tbh some people do seem to think that the idea of the game is to sit in one place all the time and make marshmellows and toast.

I've never been more happy to pull someone up from laying prone in a dark corner, stabbing them in the neck and nicking their dogtags.

The problem was they backed themselves into a corner by offering the 48 hour early access to anyone who bought Medal of Honour a year earlier.

The biggest problem is the squad management. I would have thought they would have at least made sure that worked. I haven't played it half as much as I would of f it had worked. I could tell from the first match I had that if you were not using teamwork, you may aswell go play another game.

The classes also play a big part. The support class is now lethal if used properly. I got 5 kills in a row the other day in one of the side tunnels in Metro. Got to the corner, went prone and poked my head round and deployed the bipoid. I saw a couple of enemies so held my finger on the trigger and as I mowed them down more guys came running round the corner. Instant death.
 
Yeah, I invited Kid to a squad and then started a game and he was nowhere to be seen. That needs sorting, it's the best bit about the whole thing.

Yup that was bloody annoying, I kept accepting and trying to joining and it wouldn't let me. Then it greyed out my 'find a game' section and I had to restart the game to play...
