Guys I was curious how much of the BF3 population will leave once MW3 comes out. Im betting that atleast 1/4 of those playing BF3 are doing so simply because it is the newest FPS out there. I love BF3 and it is my multiplayer FPS of choice, but I somehow think there are alot of CoD fans who are just giving BF3 a try until their game comes out.

Who cares. Both are incredibly generic, unrealistic military shooters. That said I will play both, then go back to Halo & Gears. Sorry, but nothing can compare to arena style shooters like Halo, Gears, Quake, and Tribes. (I wish they would make a new one of the latter two for god sakes!! I want my BFG/spinfuser!!!)

I highly doubt it. Battlefield games have a large following. Heck, i can get on BFBC2 right now and find 20 full games. Im sure most COD fans are still playing black ops or waiting.

Obvious answer is yes. I will continue playing BF3, but they are very similar games to a lot of people and some that will get MW3 got BF3 because it came out first. Over time, as new games come out, some people move on. Once Diablo III comes out, I will likely stop playing a majority of my games, despite genre.

Only good thing about MW3 launch is that it will filter out all the crap players, from BF3.

I bought BF3 wanting to love it. I just had to try it because the only FPS I play are COD games. And boy, this game is too hard for me. I'm not a hardcore FPS guy, and BF3 was just too overwhelming for me to enjoy. Back to COD for me it is. Not the games fault, just too much for me to handle.

And what is wrong with that? Different strokes for different folks. You like your ice cream chocolate, and I like mine vanilla. So now, would you please step down from that high horse of yours?

They both have their own fan base, but maybe the numbers will drop a little on the consoles.... But on the PC BF has always had a strong fanbase.

I'm actually hoping the camping CoD players will go to MW3. There's too many noobs right now that sit and camp instead of moving up in BF3.

I'd rather play with players that do the objective, help the team.. instead of playing with who just sits, camps, snipes, crash.. whatever .. you name it.

I'd say some, at most. The BF players prefer a different kind of gameplay (more slow), so I don't think they'll move to CoD.

it isn't a high horse, BF isn't complicated. It's an fps, just like CoD. It has object markers on the map, unlike cod. If you cant follow objectives, thats sad

LMAO, it's sad that I am having difficulty with a game I have played less than an hour of? Really? So, not being able to grasp the complex difficulties of a new game is sad, but having a scantly clad animated woman in your signature isn't? Oh boy, I just love me some digital women! That gets me hot. And I am the sad one? hahahaha

I think it is. You get in a jet, you need to take off (In CoD you could already have a kill), then you need to find some enemies, and then you need the patience to actually kill somebody with the jet which isn't easy to learn.

Umm yeah they are comparable. Because call of duty has a rpg like system and responsive controls. But seriously, its not all about being realistic.

Nope, because alot of people want team work and not all the killstreak garbage and bad level design.

BF3 is king of multiplayer atm and I dont see any game passing it for awhile, including COD.

WIll COD sell extremely wella nd gret rave reviews? Of course it will.

True, CoD stop really much be good on PC after CoD4 at my Experience.

Other that no, BF/MW series got a good fanbase out there we could say.

You know.... I think the CoD players might have been the Valor Players in M.A.G. They play so horribly in a team base game it's not even funny. You see them at the rooftops just trying to get points sniping while their base is getting taken over by the enemy. You see people from Sver using gas grenades and people from Valor are like wtf is this? i never seen that before... must be a smoke bomb. And they all walk right into it... so yea....... Can't wait for MW3 so they can get off my other fav team FPS game BF3.

There's enough room for both shooters. So while technically they're competing for the same players, I don't see either game having a sales or online population problem because of the other's existence.

Exactly. If anything, MW3 guys "might" go over to BF3 if they feel things haven't improved enough. But for a BF player to convert to Call of Duty, that's rare. And then there are players that play both.
