So I just found out yesterday about this, but cba to read everything, so...

Will this be as good as bf2 was in its day?

Will this multi-platform shizzle ruin the PC version?

So you'd rather update your console?

same shit tbh
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?
So you blame the entire platform for your own lazyness/shortsightedness?

consoles are cheaper. ignore any screens/speakers etc, build me a PC for £300 that can play BF3.

If the lead platform for BF3 is going to be the PC then you console faggots will not get the same same BF3 experience the PC users will get.  Get this through your thick fuckin skulls.  You will deservedly get a pile of shit that is reflective of the technological constraints of the whatever console you play your shit on.  Ever seen the BF2 console version? It's a joke.

Now if i want to drop £1k on a system that play BF3 so i can experience it in all its glory then i will.  So fuck you and whatever console you rode in on.

It will be multi platform but PC will be the lead development platform. so fingers crossed a worthwile sucessor to BF2 is released.  Oh wait it has jets so it is!

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...
if you are going to tell me someone with a uber graphics card and killer setup doesnt have an advantage (face value, not player specific) over someone with a basic dell that runs the game on min settings then i will never believe that.
uh, you realize running bf2 on minimum settings besides geometry, effects, and view distance gave you an advantage over everyone else who was running on max setting, right?

You can have my current PC... It will run BF3 and it's much newer than the PS3...

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.

having done both i prefer the analog stick..

I use the cheapest mouse and keyboard I can get my hands on for FPS gaming and they last for years at a time. For a benchmark, have a ~3 KDR with ~40k kills in BF2. For flight, I move to a simple joystick with a little non-spring thumb throttle. I have a gamepad as well with analog input, but it's reserved for platformers.

PC users have a choice to buy a bunch of extra bullshit that we don't need, but the beauty part is that we don't have to.

Sweet deal brah!
Any console I have that's capable of it is just plugged into my computer monitor via selector switch and/or AV receiver. Exact same thing I use for PC games.

Hey I'm not saying PC gaming isn't dying thanks to dumb 12 year old Activision customers...

I'm just saying I still have a tiny glimpse of hope for the PC...

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.

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.
Yea just remembered, depended on your class. If you chose a class with a French gun you spoke with french accent, if you had a german gun  class you spoke german accented. Not sure if there was British.

Consoles are cheaper for sure, but PC is better.
