EA, Battlefield 3 is a PC exclusive and it will blow you away.

BF2 was my favorite PC game, id probably still play it if i had a gaming PC. Looks like this and Diablo 3 give me a reason to get a new one.

[QUOTE="mitu123"]

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] Yeah my friends are getting it on 360, Plus it's a console shooter. I don't think the PC audience will be as supportive of it. I think they would rather hold out for BF3.

Let's just be real about it... BF3 most likely won't end up being totally exclusive. It'll have an alteration of it on consoles just like BF2 did. Yes it won't be near as good on consoles, but it'll be there in a form and no it won't be just like BC2... BC2 is super slimmed down, there's more DICE can do on there, but why spoil it now when they got a huge amount of profit they can make later on?

Or maybe because they haven't developed everything they needed to for BF3 yet.... If they had, BF3 would already be out for PC... yes? For all we know the BC series is them getting use to the engine.

[QUOTE="Instashot"]

Also, I didn't mean BC2 is a joke, the game is good...very good.

But overall BF2 has more MP wise since it didn't have a SP campaign.

This needs to remain a PC exclusive has the BF# type games for PC are huge in scale and really cannot be done on consoles without some serious downgrading to play on consoles.

That is why Battlefield BC2 exist, its a spin off from the PC series.

What about MAG? Yea it sorta flopped but it still proves that consoles can do the massive multiplayer shooter thing.

MAG is just infantry battles though, and even then if you've played the game, it's not full scale war. It's broken up into 8v8s, so even though you're in a 64, 128, 256 player battle, it never feels that way. You will never even see half the people, and probably not even see two-thirds of them.

MAG is a great game, but it doesn't even come close to Battlefield 2.

ya, what was really epic was setting up 63 bots in battlefield on a map made for 32... holy crap, it felt like such a real war, only they were too stupid to take cover XD

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"][QUOTE="mitu123"] Game nights are going to be interesting with this game.:P

[QUOTE="WarEagle1357"]I am a BF vet and I think I will like BC2 more than BF2...KungfuKitten

Lol yeah i miss the comma rose, it really made squad playing more efficient and fun (if you didn't use a mic). I would much prefer it to the socialise button they have in bc2.

[QUOTE="mitu123"]

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] We'll have a gamenight the week it launches probably. I want some GUFU dog tags :)Verge_6

[QUOTE="Dead-Memories"] mods like project reality, PC server support. gameplay mechanics, jets, map scale etc. bf 3 just wouldn't be a true succesor to BF 2 if it wasn't pc exclusive. Persistantthug

Consoles can do mods, btw.

not really...UT3 could do some very basic stuff, but never full conversion mods like Project reality.

This sir, I have been waiting for for 4 years. This is why I built an i7 machine. This, this is just great.

It better have more than 64 players.

Or else they'll lose a whole one customer... Right on!!

Not exactly blown away seeing as its pc exclusive. Not going to pay $1000 for a decent pc to just play one game. Hopefully onlive or something will come out in the near future that makes pc gaming more accessible to the general public at a reasonable price.

hope its not like battliefield 2142

Cant wait for the strike at karkand remake

Cant wait for the strike at karkand remakeLed_poison

Now that would be epic.

I don't think there will be a battlefield 3 for a long time. With the way PC gaming has been lately we may not even get one.

Why did you revive this? And PC gaming is bigger than ever, what are you smoking? PC is fine, why do people still say that...

Bah, I just prefer my consoles. If I miss out on a couple of uber graphix PC exclusives then so be it.

BC2 needs more Rush maps, I hope DICE isn't putting all their efforts into BF3 and MoH multiplayer yet.tomarlyn

PC gaming is perfectly fine, Digital Download sales last year where more then ps3 and 360 game sales combined. But you say PC gaming is TEH DEAD?
