So... Battlelog. Thoughts?

Who likes it? Who doesn't?

I was extremely sceptical when I first heard the idea, but, after trying it, I really like it. It's much quicker than loading a game up and joining a server that way, and it's all done from the browser, which I personally have open at all times. It means I can leave Battlelog in a tab and jump into a game immediately whenever I feel like it.

Thoughts are welcomed

Yay another thread relating to BF3.

Why don't we start a new thread for every single aspect of the game, that would be far better than discussing them in the 279 page thread we already have for Battlefield 3 that's had over 609,000 views, over 22,000 replies and has been going for 2 years.

Because posting everything relating to the game in one 'easy to read' thread means hunting through multiple posts in order to find the ones pertaining to the bit of the game you were talking about.

I'm really growing to like Battlelog after playing some more.

The arguments for having an in-game menu seem to be purely aesthetic, unless somebody would like to justify why they prefer this?

Battlelog has been open in my browser since the beta went live. You simply couldn't do that with an in-game server browser. I challenge anyone to load up Bad Company 2 and get into a game faster than BF3 gets you into a game through Battlelog. Quick match takes a few seconds.

As has been mentioned, it may not be to everyone's tastes, and it does need some tweaking (give them time, Steam wasn't perfect for a long time), but they can use this in all their games, rather than having to spend development time on a fancy menu.
