I haven't forgotten. I know it's heretical but I thought BF2 actually wasn't very good, certainly not as good as 1942.Has everyone forgotten BF2 was one of the most bug ridden games ever released?
Yep, definitely a reskin - Battlefield 3 / Jay-Z 99 Problem Full-Length Gameplay TV Ad
1) I'll believe when I see it ( gameplay videos from real people, not marketing).
2) What kind of PC do you need to make it look like that? Is this going to be Crysis all over again where no one can make it look like the actual videos from the advertising?
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.

What resolution is your eyefinity setup? I'm wondering if a single 6970 would be enough to drive a 2560x1600 monitor in this game. I doubt it.you must be running out of tissues
I'm waiting for your next great one liner after calling it 'just a reskin'
we will get a much better idea of the performance this week, I had zero issues ever on a single 5870.
I will run the beta on a single stock 6970 to see how it does. I can't try eyefinity(atleast till the weekend) because the switch the 6970 meant I had to order another active dp adapter, my 2 are DP and the 6970 has mini-dp
you are correct, and everyone knows the gameplay is going to be similar to bf2/bc2
that makes you a troll
along with calling frostbite a 'reskin'
new physics, realistic animations to tell you what other players are really doing so you can react better, and destruction

Dude, seriously quit your crying and making up excuses. BF3 is going to require some horsepower, but not nearly as much as Crysis. BF3 makes MW3 look like a tonka toy by comparison, so your excuse of needing a powerful rig is lame.
MW3 is gonna sell more than BF3 no doubt, but on a technical standpoint BF3 is superior. Gameplay wise, that's all preference. I'll be enjoying BF3 when it releases regardless of what people prefer.
There are hundreds of videos on Youtube from people playing the alpha. Granted, it's the alpha, so you're seeing unfinished graphics, but it will give you a good idea.
You need a good PC, no doubt. They announced both the minimum and recommended system requirements just a few days ago. It will not, however, be another Crysis. Cryengine 2, IMO, was an extremely unoptimized engine at the time of release. Seeing as Dice's Frostbite engine performed considerably well at the release of BC2, it's safe to say that Frostbite 2.0 will perform similarly well next month.
Shrugging it off by saying "Oh, but no one can run that, right?" is not a valid reason to dismiss Battlefield 3's prowess. It's a pretty big technical achievement. I don't think anyone can deny that.
Graphics-circlejerking aside, I think it's fairly well-understood now that Battlefield's is far more technically advanced than Call of Duty; understandably so, seeing as CoD caters more to the console crowd, and BF is largely more popular on the PC. DICE can afford to make a prettier game for PC because that's where their market is.
definitely BF3. Cod4 and on is just terrible multiplayer. Crap spawnpoints, poor level design (way too open), just a spamfest in general.
BF3 is going to require some horsepower, but not nearly as much as Crysis.
Now this is hilarious. I'm just making a comment that seems reasonable enough for any rational person to make about any game that supposedly looks that good. Whats am I making up excuses or crying about now?
I wasn't bashing it any way.
But then again leave it up to the fanboys to start crying because I say something that doesn't make their game shine like the light of god.
That's what I was trying to say when I was comparing it to Crysis earlier. Yes, BF3 is better looking than Crysis. No, it won't be ridiculously demanding like Crysis was for many people back in 2007.
Because you're nit picking at to just pick. That I find hilarious. BF3 is technologically more advance, period.
EA/DICE doesn't have magical powers to make a more advance game run on inferior hardware.
Agreed
I'd get the PS3 version of BF3, it is like a bunch of games in one.
