Ok, so I've been on the Beta for a bit... the PC version is beautiful... absolutely gorgeous... Even on an Nvidia 9800GTX it looks beautiful.

I haven't seen the Xbox version yet, but I will play it some time when I get home tonight and inform you guys as to it's visual status tomorrow.

Move over Call of Duty... You're about to get pwn3d.

I've been discussing this elsewhere.  I don't see it.  CoD's got too large of a built in user base at this point.  BF3 isn't going to even put a scratch on it.

We'll see.

Just remember at one time, Medal of Honor WAS the FPS to own... now it's 2nd tier and "maybe" in the top 5 as far as FPS franchises go.

"maybe".

I hear you on that.  I guess what I'm saying is that BF3's multiplayer will have to be so far superior that it will attract a rabid anticipation for BF4, and then we'll see.

MW is just a juggernaut right now.  Largest ever in history.  It's going take time to cut into that.

CoD's mindless hordes of supporters has never been stronger. BF's popularity has never been this high either.

Never take sales as an indicator of a great game.

Battefield is such a better product.

Haven't owned a gaming console in many, many years. My wife and I always LOL at people in their 20's, 30's, 40's and beyond who spend hours of their day playing video games.

No you weren't.

In tu's initial comments he was mentioning the hardware that he was playing bf3 beta on. Everyone knows battlefield 3 is going to be a visual stunner. On top of being a better overall game. That what he was referring to. At least thats what I took from it. But he can correct me if i'm wrong.

My initial discussion was about how it was looking and overall game play.

I have no illusions that COD will of course at sell it by a good majority.

That said, I believe that overall it can chip away at the COD user base eventually, if COD doesn't get their act together and provide something better than MW3 is going to be.

Well its what I was discussing.   It was my response to him saying CoD was going to get pwnd.    I was referring to sales.

I generally don't get into which games are "better" since its a completely subjective medium.

I have been so busy lately I actually just sold my graphics card cause I haven't even fired up my gaming machine in over a month.  lot of great titles coming out soon, so maybe I will get another in a few months once things loosen up a bit.

Yes, it reminds me of a Stormtrooper, not that im a sci fi nerd but Im sick of all the cases that look the same, oh and the BF3 Beta fucking sucks, I hope the full game pulls off some miracles because the Metro map is like a shitter version of Bad Company 2

You're playing a REALLY old build in the Metro map.

I don't think it sucks at all myself, but that's just me. I'm a little biased.

Ive been playing the beta for the last few days. Couple points.

The tacticool light. Its like a bright ass bullseye. Does nothing to hinder accuracy or blind me or whatever the point of it is. But people still purposely try to shine it in your face. I thank them for doing this.

Glitchy' map. Its fun to camp under the map and pick people off. Not fun when youre crawling in a random area and you fall in to the sky.

The weapon layout. I liked bfbc2 version better. It gave you each weapons strengths and weakness. Also easier to navigate. The new layout is like what madden did with pre snap controls. Just complicated things and serves no purpose/advantage over the previous style.

Couple more observations.

I'm running past raggedy bodies on the ground that look like wtc jumpers..and out of no where they mow me down.

The hit box is very similar to bfbc2. You fire rounds at an enemy, see the head/body getting pounded by the bullets yet still perfect health.

I've spent a solid 12 hours to get the game to work properly on my mediocre laptop. Now that all drivers etc are all up to speed, the game is still buggy as hell. I'm getting a lot of audio issues.. but at least the graphics work fine now. Still an awesome game but it needs to be patched asap.
