Battlefield 3

meh, screw the objective. sniping peoples brains over the pavement is much more fun than capturing the mcom.

abusing the beautiful, beautiful Mobile AA to spray infantry to death is even more hilarious!!

For a number of reasons, which I'm not going to moan about, I am seriously not enjoying this, can't believe I've wasted money on another crap game

At this point in time I'm seriously thinking of never buying another game unless it has Gears Of War, Soul Calibur, Lego, Fallout, Fable, Tomb Raider, Madden or Mass Effect in the title!!!

what if Mass Effect 3 turns out to be sh*t then? and they change the mechanics for Soul Calibur 5, you'll end up doing jigsaws instead of playing games.

don't give up just because it's hard.

EDIT: Something went wrong with this post, i typed out a load of reasons I didn't like it but it obviously went wrong, I can't be arsed to type it all out again.

I'll perserve for a bit, my biggest complaint other than the graphics and the difficulty though is the maps are just too big

i found a lot of the TDM maps too small, but your right some Rush maps have large sections and short sections. Some consistency would have been nice. Don't get the whole graphics thing, i thought you were being sarcastic when you said they were bad. They're terrible without the HD install, feel sorry for 4GB slim users

With regards to the graphics, just take a look at some of the cars and vehicles, they look really badly drawn/rendered. There's one specific map that it looks particularly bad on but I forget which one. It's probably just me!!!

on MP? will have to take a look, i'm usually too busy running away from ... i mean towards the MCOM

Jaynestown · October 30, 2011, 05:17:02 PM

Yeh, there's 2 cars, absolutely identical parked next to each other and they just look like they belong in something like Perfect Dark Zero, plus there's a bus and other vehicles too. It may just be me being picky tbh, I have got very "snobby" over graphics lately. I'll be on tonight to try and get a game, I just wish I could get in a game with friends, it's just not as fun with a load of randoms.

i find it easier joining a friends game, than starting one of my own. remember when games were about fun, rather than graphics. *sad face* for JT

When i'm on tonight, we can Squid Up JT. We'll get Fuzz and the gang too, it'll be like old school BC2 nights.

Jaynestown · October 30, 2011, 05:27:53 PM

That would be great. I can overlook some dodgy graphics if we can get online together and kill (or be killed by) some randoms together

Failed · October 30, 2011, 05:29:58 PM

be killed will probably be the one, i havn't tried Conquest yet, so gonna give that a whirl

Jaynestown · October 30, 2011, 05:33:51 PM

I'll see you online later then. Hopefully Nick might be on too

Maibs · October 30, 2011, 05:43:58 PM

See the graphics to me are great, no problems at all.
The funny thing is failed I joined a few TDM's after getting annoyed with rush and that's when my K/D flew up, suppose the COD in me will take awhile to die.

Also my team always suck on CQ/Rush need to get together with some of you on here.

Jaynestown · October 30, 2011, 05:46:50 PM

I guess it's just me!

I do want to like it, I think I've just been disappointed because I haven't been been able to get a game with anyone but randoms, and when Nick and I tried the co-op mission with the helicopter we just kept dying. If Nick''s having a problem it MUST be hard!!!

Jaynestown · October 30, 2011, 05:57:35 PM

Aaaarrrrggggghhhhhh.

I come online to try and get a game before doing some dinner and what do I get?
