So how will Battlefield 3 differ from Medal of Honor and BFBC2?

I thought people said that MOH was a COD clone?

It will be a lot more varied and much more open.

Not to mention the online is going to be a great mix of BF2 and BC2. It's going to be amazing.

Not going to differ, BF3 is going to be like BFBC2 with 64 players and jets on the PC at least. The true Battlefield series will most likely die with BF2/2142.xXDrPainXx

64 players, vehicles, jets, and the usual, new campaign, new weapons, ect.

You even watch the latest video? Tank battles on huge open fields, massive cities, jet fights, a mix of special forces and large battles.

I mean, what more do you want from a modern military shooter?

Medal of Honor was basically BFBC2 in smaller environments and without vehicles. BF3 will be more of the same. We already know the environments are being shrunken down from the PC version. BF3 will be a mix of MoH and BFBC2. Not a bad thing IF you liked those games, but BF3 isnt the second coming of Jesus or the CoD killer that some are making it out to be. drakekratos

Pin the tail on the donkey

First of all, if you are not playing on PC you will not get most of what will make BF3 so awesome. Well besides the gaming being completely different with a new campaign (co-op apparently), maps, guns and so on, it has jets, massive environments, better destruction, prone, 64 players, amazing graphics, and more features that are either brought back from PC exclusive BF games, or new to the series. I think that is quite a jump. More than most games take, my gosh.

I'm just curious if they will be using 4 or 6-man squads for the PC version multiplayer. I'm really hoping for 6-man since those seem to be the most effective. Four is only good for sneaking around.

I hope 6 man squads. It only makes sense with 64 players.

If it isn't divisible you're going to have a leftover team with less than 6 members, how's that fair? I'd say just stick with the usual 4 man combo.

I imagine because you just owned TC that we won't see him again in the thread. But I agree completely with your points, it will be amazing

[QUOTE="cobrax55"]

[QUOTE="PurpleMan5000"] 4 or 8 would make more sense because 64 is not evenly divisible by 6.XVision84

True, BUT...

1. Do you really think we will have full squads in a full game with no one locking theirs?
2. 8 man squads are too powerful (likely) and 4 man is tiny for 64 players.

IDK they will do it right though :P.

Never played BF2 Im guessing?

Differ from Medal of Honor and BFBC2?

How does this

look like this?

Or this?

They look nothing alike. Oh, and please no depressed Battlefield fans going ":cry: this isn't teh true Battlefield, Battlefield died when Battlefield 2 came out, :cry: BFBC2 rip off" Stop being depressed, it's just as good, no, it's better.

Nope :) but I can't imagine why they'd choose a number non-divisble by 6, if it worked out in BF2 it might work out in BF3.

The squad system in BF2 is completly different (and vastly superior to) then the squad system in BC2

Really? Interesting, I'm really looking forward to seeing it then :D I also remember there being Commander in BF2 (sadly that was taken out) I would've enjoyed having or being a commander :(

Commanders and Jets would be my assumption

and i hope they stop medics LMGs

They haven't confirmed commanders, but they said they aren't doing it just like BF2. If they do it, it will be a hybrid. The commander system was awesome yet it had some flaws.

Jets have been nerfed, not in terms of power, but you actually have to land to reload. That alone will really balance them out. A jet should be a feared thing, just not as crazy OP as in BF2.

LMGs are now stupidly inaccurate unless you prone and deploy. Just watch the video. When he sprays standing up, bullets fly everywhere but straight.

Jets? Battlefield 3 will probably be similar to Bad Company 2's multiplayer except served with a heaping dose of steroids ie, graphics, sound, animations, unlock ables and overall gameplay. I know the latter will apply to the PC version.

All of the gamers are afraid of change, why is it that whenever there is a sequel, heck even when it's PC focused, you have hordes of fans saying the "real Battlefield" died? What more of a class do you want? Engineer, Medic, Assault, and Recon. That's it, it's like Skyrim's case where all you really need are the basics and you can expand on that. M60 was overpowered at first, but that was fixed. There is no problem with the perk system, it's just stuff that's useful to you that you can use. It helps you play the you want to, use your playing style. It's not overpwoered or anything, I don't get what's wrong with the gadget system either. You go back to equipping a knife and grenade in order to use it, I much preferred that. I don't need to play BF2 to tell people that DICE knows what they're doing, and that they should stop complaining about the death of Battlefield. It looks great! These guys aren't trying to let down their fans and destroy their game, they're changing it according to what the community wants or complained about.

Also, the game is going to be "better" because of the better graphics, destruction, jets not being overpowered, more weapons, weapon customization, verious tweaks or things they learned from BF2, A co-op and campaign (the campaign is looking pretty good), better gun mechanics, more vehicles, switching fire rates, new engine, etc. It's a loooong list.

Commander is cool but complex to use, lulz.mitu123

Also it only worked on certain servers with people who wanted to obey, if not, only useful for spotting and artillery. Just the whole match laying somewhere, with the occasional battle with a spec-op or someone else hunting you or just passing by to spawn kill someone.

are you kidding me? 64 player battles across H-U-G-E Maps, vehicles of all sorts from tanks to helicopters to jets, Frostbite 2.0, top of the line graphics... at least on the pc, if you're buying it on the consoles, sucks for you :P

While I have heard some worrying things about BF3, I remain somewhat hopeful that it will be a true sequel to BF2. Maybe that's why I'm always getting crushed by devs ruining my favorite franchises... but still... hopeful

They need to support teamwork more somehow. Like a lot more points for squad objectives or team objectives compare to going solo. Too many times in BC2 I have been the only one taking areas or moving forward. Whil M-COM stations were getting ready to blow, no one was disarming, just sitting back in tanks or camped as snipers more concerned with their K/D ration than winning

It will be a lot more varied and much more open.

Not to mention the online is going to be a great mix of BF2 and BC2. It's going to be amazing.

If they manage to incorporate the sandbox-ness of Battlefield in the campaign that would also be great, I hope the campaign plays more like Bad Company and/or Halo in terms of design (linear shooting sections, followed by open vehicle sections and huge massive shooting sections).

cod is more of the same since cod 4 so whats your point? cod keeps being best seller even though every year its the same, its obvious you are just a fanboy mad because there may be a better game that what you play
