Good customizable classes, hopefully it'll be different configuration than both bf2142 and BC2, I want something new.

As long as DICE remembers EU =/= French accents only (I'm looking at you EU Forces )

Thought they were German accents.

Ah well

If so, they are very, VERY bad german accents

Some where German:
"Enemy MTW spotted"
MTW = Mannschaftstransportwagen = APC

Some where French:
"Medic ici"

Don't know if there were any other supposed accents, as those two lines were the only certain ones for me.

Biggest ones for me...

I hate footsteps in this kind of game... it gives people with headsets a HUGE advantage over us "speaker" people

What?
I can hear footsteps equally good with both speakers and headphones.

The real big advantage over a surround speaker system is that you also can distinguish between events in front and behind you.
That doesn't really work with stereo headphones and surround headphones are way too expensive for their scope of performance. Also, I somehow doubt that you can get a proper surround sound with multiple speakers crammed into a few centimeters of headphone.

what?  you need a computer as you said.  you dont need a 500 dollar gfx card and a cooling tower.

I hope a Demo will be relased, so i know if ITS WORTH OR NOT!

Can we just agree they both have their good points and bad points?

On the PS3 you don't don't have to worry about 12 year old admins kicking you for being too good or having to play servers with rules that would make fascist cream himself. On the PC you get a server browser and can pick your games better.

People on PC are more accurate because of the mouse but people using consoles have better movement thanks to the setup of the controller.

Etc.

im not sure an analogue stick is provably better than WASD, man...

the keyboard is a great interface tbh

Who the fuck said anything about that?

plus i dont have to buy a uber 100000zillion dpi gamer mouse

You think PC gamers do?


Lets stop arguing 11B, you are clearly just as biased and maybe even moreso pulling shit out your arse than me...

no one 'needs' to buy them. your problem with pc games seems to be that there's a lot of unnecessary shit... but why does that actually bother you? it's UNNECESSARY, that's exactly the whole point. if anything, it's a bonus to pc gamers that there's a choice and option. if you don't like or get along with a particular console controller... it's basically tough-shit.

my problem is pc world is filled with hackers, thief's, and people who can get an advantage just by spending more money.  thats lame if you ask me.

Hackers are a little-to-non issue since the introduction of VAC, Punkbuster and similar filters...

You honestly think you have an advantage by having a 5k DPI mouse rather than a 800DPI ?

srsly where do you come up with this shit...

similarly people that blame their suckiness/disadvantage on 'hardware' or 'gadgets' are just looking for excuses, imho... i've never been given such a boost by a gaming mouse or keyboard that i'm noticeably 'better' at the game. sure, it'll be more comfortable to use for long periods of time, and it'll have some nifty extra features that make my life a little easier, e.g. macros and an LCD screen... but how is the extra $50 bucks meant to gift you godmode powers?

well sir, i keep track of everything i spend..have been doing so for about 15 years now.  and i spent way more when i had a pc for gaming versus the ps3.  i will admit some of the stuff was prolly not necessary but even if i subtract that its still more.


btw where is that 300 dollar bf3 puter you mentioned?
