Oh, makes sense.
Great thing about that tower is you can hide anywhere on the map and snipe the sniper up there
Exactly what i was thinking earlier
There cant be that many people who'll buy BF3 who havent already played the beta & Caspian, people are going to know to look for snipers hiding up there.
It might be pretty good when you've got a few flags in that area and your taking out people at a fair distance, but equally there will be snipers who'll look there first the moment they get the chance, as they're an easy spot. Cant see that being useful for more than a few days or so personally. No cover to fall back to, just crawl back a bit.
In BF2 you'd have people hiding up the construction cranes, there was better cover, and you could hide along any point of there, the radio tower you have 1 spot, its quite predictable. I suspect once snipers get a knack for spawning at the main base and knowing the bullet drop to account for, those who've died a few times from distant retalitory sniper shots while up there will realise and stop using it.

How much splash damage does the tank shells have, a couple of feet?
If even half of them pick up a copy on launch day, BF3 will be well on its way to matching COD for sales figures.
Which is ultimately what EA have set out to do with BF3.
So from tomorrow onwards, still 10 days left
Where we have waited 4 years, I guess 10 days is no big deal lol
You think? It's starting to drag a little though
it puts into perspective the small amount of people moaning again and again on forums
And on here.

Lol sorry mate, i did have a look back a few pages... but in work so cant the video's
I want to know this too
Was going to buy the limited disk edition but dont know if i will be able to use the in built browser. I would prefer not to use origin really, if i could just fire up the in built online lobby and launch a game that would be good

It automatically install origin on your PC and link Battlefield to it. So yes every time you play battlefield your origin account will start up.

No matter where you buy the game from or in what format (digital download or retail disc), you can't escape origin
Origin is an integral part of BF3 now

No matter how many hours you will play it and how much value you will get, you should obviously always go for the cheapest deal when the product is homogenous.
Having to load Origin then go to a web page before you can finally load the game is pretty silly, however if the game is good enough (which it will be) I'll soon forget about all that. I'm currently fighting the urge to spend £700 on a Sandy Bridge upgrade
