BF2S Forums Battlefield 3 - Main Thread

If I could play BF2 it was hardly brutal, except when I played infantry on vehicle servers, even then it wasn't bad.
C4'ing jets was always funny.

CoD was painfully boring by comparison, the SP was boring, "oh here comes another wave of enemies to mow down, I'll mow them down then, what now? Oh, another wave....", the MP was boring, "Oh I turned a corner, we both left-clicked, I won/he won", no team-play that I could see.

You pretty much described the core of all FPS games in your last sentence there.

Just sold my Laptop and about to buy a nice quad core one with a better graphics card just for BF3 lol. Dual Cores dont cut it anymore for PC gaming.

i hate the fact every gun has an optic. those things are fucking annoying. they looked gay in cod4 and i didn't use them, and i don't want them in bf3. it's going to be like playing spec ops with that shitty carbine 24/7. they obscure all of your vision (especially with the shit bf3 alpha fov/wep scale, as it is right now anyway...) and it's generally shit.

I like the option of having iron sights on the sniper rifles.
That was great in CoD1

although were just going to have to see if it will be very effective in bf3, havent been able to play a decent game on a decent map with it.

I'm wondering if you go sights or just ACOG or RDS, will you still sway and have to hold your breath for the sniper rifles.  No sway when assault is using a 4x./not fair.

bf2 was no way near brutal.

Not me and you, no, but for people who'd never played battlefield and didnt know what it was like, well, the learning curve was pretty huge.

Well, if it's any indication of BF3, my 13 year old played some of the alpha, and after a couple rounds getting the hang of keyboard control, he had no problem being in the middle of the leaderboard, despite having to constantly look at the keys and fumbling with crouch and prone.  My son has never played any FPS on the PC.

And even then, only pathetic losers care about that shit anyway so why would DICE waste their resources making the game to -Sh1tty-'s expectations when they could be using them to make the game suck less?

Well, with an ACOG you don't have to have you eye up to the scope like with a sniper scope, it has to be close but not too close. So you would still have peripheral vision (side vision) so your side vision should be blurry like in real life, but nothing in the scope would be blurry, just peripheral.

YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR EYE UP TO THE SCOPE EITHER IRL

SHEESH

WHY should peripheral be blurry? I just posted a photo of how it is IRL, it's not blurry.

Your peripheral is focused?  Wow.

it's a that photo is on 3x magnification

9x magnification isn't much different



PSO-1 @ 4x mag

i just hate it when people say "well irl, derp derp derp derp"

Well, I think Trotsky is either suffering from some lack of real peripheral and doesn't know what we're talking about, or Trotsky has super eyes no other human possesses.

You know how you can see people in a 180° angle? like from the left of your eye and the right?

And in real life you have you eye up close to the scope, closer than in that picture.

And DSL shut up RO did it.

from when I've looked through a scope with one eye closed, the peripheral (aka the stuff outside the scope) isn't that blurry. Yes it's out of perfect focus. But no, it's not blurred to any degree that would be logical to implement in a game
