I want to buy one of the two games for my PC just for online gaming as I have already played both on the 360. So which of the two have a better online experience and which one is more popular?

ive played nearly all cod games, but found out that when mw3 came out that I would not buy it... bf3 is rewarding, challanging, but best played with friends or in a squad that acutally works together, the different modes also make it worth my 150 hours spent pounding my mouse in anger.

Battlefield 3, especially if you're getting it on PC. That game was made for it...

Played both and BF3 is the only game that keeps me coming back to it. A very fun online experience, once you get good at it that is. If you suck at first it's only normal

MW 3 for CO-OP and less problems (not just technical problems, also design decisions, etc), the normal mp is more enjoyable with friends compared to BF 3 (with friends), but really, I wouldn't recommend either.

If you've played both already then you should be able to make the decision for yourself, however it is worth noting that MWF3 is more/less the same on PC as it is on consoles while BF3 on PC has 64 players instead of 24, extra vehicle spawns, and larger maps than on the console version.

MW3 isn't bad, but the community is horrible. Too many people running around with Akimbo squirt guns, who have the audacity to complain about someone camping. The Spawn system in COD still sucks.

I haven't played BF3 yet.

However I played BFBC2 and it suffered from 2 major problems, 1. (hit detection was laughable) 2. Game suffered from Bullet sponging (took too many bullets to kill someone) even in hardcore mode.

Before I even think about investing in BF3. I need to know if those 2 things have been fixed.

For online, BF3 wins, no contest, especially if you can get some friends to get a decent squad together.

For co-op and single player though, MW3 has the edge. But online wise, BF3 is the winner I'd say.
