Never has a game made me rage like battlefield 3

I hate so many things about it:

1. the weapon attachment system is a stupid, half-assed way of prolonging the upgrade system. There is almost no incentive to use new weapons if you're going to be left with inferior atttachments.

2. The helicopters, and especially the jets SUCK. It is almost impossible to get any kills with it and without the flares you die from homing devices within seconds of being airborne, making the first upgrade for flying impossibly difficult to get. Not to mention it is almost impossible to get kills anyways. It seemed like they wanted to tack on a flying component but didn't want it to effect the tide of the game at all. Planes are useless.

3. People spawning onto or stealing your plane/vehicle. There should be some sort of process to allocate who gets what and when. It is totally unfair and BS that I am repairing a plane and some douchebag steals my plane. The current process of vehicle aquisition is unfair and pisses gamers off. I was repairing a jet that would of otherwise exploded when some BEEPhole stole my plane.

4. The people who take planes/choppers and crash it immediately after flying it for 100 feet. Not the developers fault, but it pisses me off so much. They need to make a practice map for these people.

5. Cheap back kills

6. too difficult to spot enemy

7. It takes way to long to level up. They figure that is the only way to get players to keep playing but their approach is way to blatant and boring. Progress is slow. I go up a rank only to receive a new camo! Even if you do tediously unlock all the weapons there is no practical reason to use it because of point #1. Remainder EA: This is a shooter, not World of Warcraft.

I'm sure there are other problems. I hate these aspects of BF3 and it reminds me of why I love COD. COD is simple, fun and action packed. COD3, my body is ready.

The point in Batllefield 3 is to show you the true war, it's a very tactical game! Not like COD (that i really like) which is a run and gun and don't care about your deaths game, Battlefield is all about strategy, they are 2 different games!

LOL at people who think this is "true war".

i didn't even comment on that. My complaints are the people stealing my planes, the planes sucking and the upgrade system.

i hate to say it but with MW2 and BBC2 although i hate Activision as its a pure buisness only company with terrible no thought of what users want and infinity ward i do prefer the cod games, they get them spot on

they have the funnest gameplay, you can work in teams unlike many say (if you work in teams you can absaloutley demolish the opposition)

and its FUN, BBC2 lost that as it implemented a long leveling system, bland maps etc

just my two cents :D

You know, TC.....you were actually writing a really nice post until you got to the very end with your blatant COD fanboy-ness. Anyway, I mostly agree with you to be honest. I was going to buy BF3 but after my experiences in the alpha and beta, I realized it was just going to be a very frustrating game. I will always have BF:BC2 for my BF experience and other shooters for an arcade exprience

I don't think anyone who genuinely enjoys the CoD series as it currently is can be taken seriously when they say some other FPS multiplayer is frustrating. anime_gamer007

What do you mean?

Dont get me wrong...i'm not a COD fanboy at all. Did not buy MW2 and will not be buying MW3. I think the entire series is rediculous and the fact that so many people pay $60 every year for a reskin of the same old multiplayer with a 4-5 hour long single player campaign blows my mind.

However, i dont see how the game is "frustrating". I think its good for what it is, its just extremely overrated.

Battlefield 3 is nothing like true war unless your crazy.No game is like true war maybe arma 2.In real life you get shot and bullet goes through your armor it might stop inside you,ripe a hole through you and you bleed to death or die instantly.You can be heavily wounded from a single hit,etc.

Never compare a game to true war.CoD and battlefield are not reskins.Each new one is packed with new content and better then the last.The flamewar between both games is just idiots who throw opinions everywhere.

The planes and helicopters don't suck, you just suck at flying them.

Battlefield is more of a long term game, the more you put into it the more you get out of it, and practice serves you well.

LOL at people who think this is "true war".

EXACTLY, totally agree with you man. The bf players really sound defensive here...hehhe, why so i wonder? I would say the same about cod players, but they haven't really posted in this thread yet (besides the tp).

I agree with Original Poster. Hey we just have opinions, that's all. This game sucks just like bc2 or any bf game. I don't need to go into detail because the op already covered that. Oh and by the way I play on pc. I should have bought MW3, even the pc version.

okay tc i agree with you on 2 points

1. yes it is annoying that you have to re-unlock every attachment every time you get a new gun (but luckly you unlock them really fast)

2. The jets are incredibly pointless the only thing they can do is kill other jets. if the jets could drop bombs then they would be useful but their machine guns do absolutely nothing. But the helicopters, if you have a good pilot, can be useful since they have machine gun turrets and missiles, and they can float in one spot instead of flying past the battlefield at insane speeds (like the jets)

I prefer "Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising" set to 'Hardcore' for a simulation experience. An enemy soldier within 200m is a deadly threat, no radar, no persistant HUD, real wind and gravity factors in bullet physics, and one shot can erase 45min. of tactical creeping and firefight progress... If you want a "real" experience you go with that game, not BF or CoD. Both BF and CoD are good games, and respect to their communities, but neither of those are what I would term "realistic" in gameplay.

BF3 is pretty easy.

[QUOTE="DarthJohnova"]

[QUOTE="THEGoD1"] Haha. Ohhh goshhh. When you mentioned your love for CoD I totally understood why you're bashing such a great game. 1. CoD is getting a weapon attachment system sorta like Battlefield the fact that you're complaining makes your argument similar to someone uninformed. 2. You bash the vehicles because CoD holds your hand whenever you get vehicles and you dont know, or care to know how to use them. 3. You dont typically fly a plane, take a few shots, then land it to repair so I could care less about your crying. 4. True, but its nothing to get butthurt over. 5. You talk about cheap back kills when in CoD you could knife someones TOE and they would go down. Thats not cheap? The way the pulled off knifing is 10x better in BF than in CoD. 6. There is a spotting function, look it up. It would be difficult to spot in CoD too, but the maps are unrealistically small and they like people breathing down each others necks. 7. Slow progress? Wtf. CoD has you go through 15 levels of prestige with the level to prestige like 70 or something? In conclusion, I think your arguments is just one of another cry baby who shows a tremendous about of bias. THEGoD1
