Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

[Goldy]

How much will the Close Quarters expansion pack be? The premium pack is £40 which seems a lot.

 

[Number_25]

£9.99 - £13.99 being touted.

more servers will start requiring them to play.

And thus the game will die quicker when the community gets split up. As happened with BC2:Vietnam.

 

[~>Dg<~]

that is the problem with extra content

just watched the EA footage of warfirfighter lololol

starts with nearly identical mw3 speed boat scene but better graphics .

Probably a very true post there

Anyway here is the official Close Quarters playing tips video, which is the first 'Premium' content video you get when you pay. Seems that EA made it very easy to download so not really sure what the point of watching it on Battlelog is as it takes ages to be able to watch.

lol so lame. HD destruction you can barely see anything with all the garbage on screen.

And Gunmaster? DICE's blatant copy of Gun Game from COD:BO.

Why innovate when you can copy and plagiarise the competition.

Wasn't the gun game mode originally from counter strike?

It certainly is playable in CSS, but maybe it is a mod inspired by BO?

Gungame was around in CS way before it was in Black Ops AFAIK...

It was also a mod in CoD4 then that filtered down to Black Ops etc.

Yeah that may have been the case. But DICE showed no interest in imitating the mode until COD did it before them.

Like 90% of new additions in BF3, it has to be tried and tested by the competition first.

I didn't say otherwise.

It's all EA's work, Dice are just the pawns.

Premium is for those that like shiny things.

What disturbs me is this. Although I wouldn't put it past EA to skew the result to encourage people to buy Premium.

 

[RavenXXX2]

Consoles players voting. they the majority.

Anyway I have accepted the fact that battlefield as we know it is dead on PC, to consolized and shallow for me, Roll on ARMA 3 and planetside 2.

 

[Fr0dders]

Consoleized no.

Wake island 5 flag proved even console gamers like the big maps. Today i fired up mt BF3 server browser on xbox and asked for all servers playing gulf of oman conquest (4 flags on xbox with jets etc..)

How many servers ? 14 pages of them

Then i switched it to te 3 flag conquest assault version thy demod at E3 last year. How many servers ?

Just 3 and all empty.

You're right about being unoriginal and shallow however.

I can still enjoy shallow though

I am a bit confused as to why they can sell it for about £8 more than it sells for in the USA. It is $49.99 in USA, while it is £39.99 here. $50, at the moment, equals £32

 

[Fr0dders]

You can get 4200 MS points for £29.99 as well. Which is enough for premium and 200 points spare for dog tags etc..

 

[Sem]

In unrelated news, I need your guys help.


I haven't unlocked the MK3A1 yet. Wondering if anyone here would go into an empty gulf of Oman server and die a few times.

im up for this but you need to do the same for me
