you roll your eyes at mw3 but bf3 is just the same thing with new skins...
i don't don't understand how you can either be so blind or hypocritical, other than you are a fanboy.
and you're gonna come back and call me a mw3 fanboy so i'll head that off now and say that i would be posting this whether it was mw3 and bf3 or C&C 12 vs WC12 or Diablo 4 vs. Torchlight 4
ah more pontiflex bf trolling
an entire new graphics engine is not 'new skins'
not trolling
new graphics, big whoop? might as well be new skins for all that adds to the game.
we've got tons of threads about how graphics don't make a game good. if its going to be the same gameplay as every other bf game, then i'm not interested.
Since BF2, new mode of play introduced - Rush. Destructible environments introduced. And the removal of the Commander function are just three huge changes to the game and only a troll would call them a new skin.
doesn't change the basic gameplay elements.
Strip half the gameplay elements from battlefield and you've still got a game that's far deeper than any of the CoD series.
doesn't change the basic gameplay elements.
LOL. Then every military FPS is a skin of the original. Keep trolling!
who are you trying to kid here? there are obvious differences between basic gameplay elements between all fps games.
I don't enjoy the ones in the BF series, namely weak and inaccurate guns, huge maps that take forever to get anywhere, lack of vehicles for all players to use/greedy or inconsiderate teammates. I give reasons why i don't like a game that I HAVE ACTUALLY PLAYED, unlike the trolls who go "lulz, CoD sucks!"
I like the gameplay that the CoD series provides.
I'm not a CoD fanboy or a troll. I don't go around making new threads stating I don't like BF like some people do with CoD. I post in existing threads discussing the games, usually after someone bashes a CoD and then praises a BF game despite them doing the same things.
This is a forum right? Just because I don't like you're beloved game doesn't make me a troll. If anything, you people constantly railing on CoD are the trolls. We heard it when MW2 was released, then we heard it when Black Ops was released.
I didn't like Black Ops. I don't know that I'll like MW3 or if I'll even buy MW3. I know I won't buy BF3 because I don't like the game play style it provides. Seems opposite of what a fanboy is.
The only thing I can say is that I'm tired of people bashing one game over the other when both series do the same things. It just so happens that you BF fanboys constantly bash CoD for stuff that BF does also or you supposedly never played the games you are bashing.
The thinly veiled personal attacks against people who like one game over another are getting old too. "You have to be an idiot to buy MW3 over BF3" or "BF3 is a deep game" or "BF3 requires thinking". It's bullshit, both games are full of people who are just running around shooting people, there's no more thinking in one game than the other.
doesn't change the basic gameplay elements.
Again, here you would be completely wrong. Strategy, team play is required in both games but more so in BF. Being able to take a squad of six(keeping the squad leader alive) around the enemy to control the Hotel in Sharqi Pennisula in BF2 can turn around a round of 64 players by being able to control the other team's assets.
For scrims and league play, strategy is almost as important as skill, especially when skill is usually equal on both sides for both both games but again, more so in BF.
In 64 player scrims, I've been involved with playing on several different maps, we'd spend a week mocking-up maps with specific instructions for each of the different squads based on their skill set to perform key roles in the scrim. Be it, defending key points to being dropped behind enemy lines to take over specific key points.
Maybe you should educate yourself before making claims like this.BF games only have 2 gameplay modes
Maybe you should educate yourself before making claims like this.
10 if you count hardcore modes as different modes (like you did for CoD).ok, there's 5 in BC2 but most of them are basically the same thing with slight variations.

I have to give Dice/EA a ton of credit for actually releasing a demo (or open beta, whatever they want to call it) for BF3. That's out of the norm for gaming these days and personally I really appreciate a chance to try before I buy. I never did buy BF2 but I played the hell out of the demo and decided it wasn't quite right for me.
What I'm not thrilled about is the inevitable "booster packs" that are bound to come out right around the corner. These really hurt the game by splitting the community up and always feel like such a blatant cash grab.
The booster pack for BC2 was the incredible Vietnam expansion, and at $15 it was the same price as the garbage five additional maps the CoD series doles out twice a year.
I'll be buying both MW3 and BF3, though I only play the Infinity Ward CoD games.
