I can say from the alpha that it definitely didn't feel like they were :)

The AK was very distinct from the M4 (even tho it was an AK74 which means they are both 5.56)

The weapons all had their unique handling and I'm thinking that in the beta/full release this will be even better!

I think this game is gonna be awesome guys :) I literally cannot wait :s

I was in the alpha :p Didnt pay much attention to how they handled as it was an alpha.
 
I'm on with Ron on a fake account. If I get a code I'll post it here...could be in here....FFS Ron hurry up....I get the feeling Ron is messing me about now...

You're making the assumption that a reduction in weapon handling difficulty is required to attract a mass audience. CS is still popular because it actually takes some skill to get the top of the server.

I think where COD succeeded was in game play features such as the party system. BC2 (a team oriented game) could learn allot from this feature in my opinion.

thats the conclusion that we've arrived at because the games that sell the biggest number of players make those kind of concessions

Nobody has really tried to take on COD, whilst doing something different. They reportedly had Andy Mcnab teaching the Devs & Animators how the guns should be handled and feel, so they are definitely very keen on realism.

Whether they do actually beat COD this autumn, i wouldn't like to predict.

Me ? i don't care. I'll be buying both :)
 
Success!!! Ron is the man!!!!

Ron: Hi, my name is Ron. How may I help you?
ching: Hi Ron.
ching: Are there any discount codes available for Battlefield 3? I'd like to pre-order it on Origin but it's very expensive.
ching: Are you still there Ron?
Ron: I am really sorry.
Ron: As it's provided by the Ea servers to the users.
ching: Eh? Can you have a quick word with the server and get back to me then. My wallet is at the ready to buy but I only have £31.99 available to spend. :)
Ron: Please wait let me see if I can do any thing for you.
ching:
Thanks.
Ron: Okay.
Ron: I am going to make an exception only for you.
ching:
Cool
Ron: May I know your country?
ching:
UK
Ron: Okay.
Ron: Can you please stay online while I investigate this issue further?
ching: Yeah. I'm not going anywhere, hurry back :)
Ron: Here is the code for Origin Store Appeasement 20% Discount "VIAMC-EAPAB-MOYC2"
ching:
Ron you are a star. My first kill on BF3 will be dedicated to you!!!11!!!
ching:
I shall recommend you for a promotion when I get the survey to fill out.
Ron: It was my pleasure to assist you today. I would appreciate if you could take out some time to fill our customer service survey that you would receive in your email within next 24 hours.
Ron: Thanks
Ron: :)
Ron: And its only for you.
ching: Bye Ron. Nice chatting to you
 
Because origin gives you all of the extra content, such as back to karkand, classic battlefield weapons, and 48 hour early beta access. I preordered via ocuk as i already have early beta access from buying moh.

Let me get this straight.

If I pre-order from Origin, I get all the extra packs such as physical warfare, back to karkand, etc? What if I buy the game from Origin on the day of release, will I still get all the extra packs, as mentioned ?

Do these extra packs come with retail disc aswell, if I were to buy from another shop?

Please put my mind at rest.:(
 
specact kit is an amazon exclusive. The only thing origin gives you over selected retailers like Game is the 48 hour early beta access, which is no big deal.

Yep, i see on origin, you get a few items for bf heroes not specact. Will the specact kit be available later as a free or paid for update, ala bc2.
 
No it has the specact kit as a bonus?

So the three major extra packs are physical warfare pack, back to karkand pack and specact kit pack?

It seems we can only get some of them depending on where we pre-order/buy the game.

Is it not possible to get all three of them in one buy lol?
 
FFS!!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I would say so, same situation with the PWP being released for free a month after the game has been out. Hope it's free cos some new outfits aint really worth paying for.

Raven, you seem way too into this game and it isn't even out yet. What are you going to do if it is terrible?
