[QUOTE=hypno-toad;27940382]Sorry, I just had to politely sit and wait through 6 years of DICE games that weren't Battlefield 3. I mean there was only a three year wait between BF1942 and BF2. I'm just not particularly impressed by the incredibly vague and contentless teaser, Modern Warfare 2-esqu cover art, and desaturated color palette of the in-game screenshots. I was kind of hoping I would be blown out of the water when Battlefield 3 was announced, but really this is too little, too late. All of this would have been amazing if it were announced 3 years ago when the whole "modern warfare" genre wasn't in overused shambles, and the frostbite engine wasn't looking simply "acceptable" or "conventional," it was looking bloody amazing.[/QUOTE] you do realize they have been waiting to do Battlefield 3 for the exact reason that when they had an engine and technology to make a game that lines up with what they want to do? technological advances don't happen over night.
I'm getting more and more exited about BF3.
[QUOTE=DaMoggen;27940497]I'm getting more and more exited about BF3.[/QUOTE] Common side affect every time a Battlefield game is announced.
Not gonna follow this thread much but will say that I will be greatly dissapointed if Wake Island is not to be spotted in this game. [QUOTE=marlkarxv3;27940519]Common side affect every time a Battlefield game is announced.[/QUOTE] Common annoyance.
[QUOTE=marlkarxv3;27940519]Common side affect every time a Battlefield game is announced.[/QUOTE] Is it common that you almost puke when a CoD game is announced?
[QUOTE=DaMoggen;27940557]Is it common that you almost puke when a CoD game is announced?[/QUOTE] Not for most children.
[QUOTE=DaMoggen;27940557]Is it common that you almost puke when a CoD game is announced?[/QUOTE] nausea is a common side effect of seeing a series continue to wear out it's welcome yes.
[QUOTE=marlkarxv3;27939514]Except negativity is still what he wants, and what he got.[/QUOTE] By that logic you're successfully trolling me right now by making me reply to you in disagreement. Though I agree that the only proper way to deal with trolls is to just ignore them.

If DICE has been designing PC exclusive, we would have had BF3 3 years ago, easily. Frostbite is looking good, no doubt, but none of this stuff you guys are jaw-slacking to is anything particularly new. Everything they've shown in their technology trailer has been in UE 3 for quite some time, and almost all of it was in Bad Company 1&2, need I remind you Bad Company 1 came out [I]3 years ago[/I]. If Battlefield 3 had been made 3 years ago (instead of bad company) you'd be seeing basically the same thing you are seeing now, but it wouldn't have been 3 years late.
I'm not bothered with the single player, it could be shit and I wouldn't care. I just want DICE to create the best multiplayer experience possible. Agree if you like.

Oh god Dubai would be awesome, but I highly dobut it.
oh really? thought it was confirmed

[QUOTE=JerryK;27941207]oh really? thought it was confirmed[/QUOTE] No, some Middle Eastern places, but Dubai - I don't know.

Why is almost every gamer an entitled fuckwit anyway?
I dunno. where is the official BF3 forums anyway? seems like I need to go over there and bust some heads.
I dont think Dubai was announced, just some dev said they could demolish the Burj Khalifa with frostbite 2

The people who complain about mod tools should just read [url=http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-bad-company-2-pc/1350772-so-how-about-modtools.html]this[/url] anyway. A DICE employee explains why there are no mod tools in bfbc2, the same post can be applied to bf3.
