is it going to give me that same feeling bf2 gave me? no

do the many unecessary changes annoy me? yes

will it entertain me for in excess of 100 hours? I think it probably will and thus i'll be getting it

I will buy but only because its a Battlefield and it might give me back that nice feeling of online playing with friends.

If it turns out to be a shit I spend more time with my GF probably...

The jets aren't useless, they're not as invincible as BF2 jets sure but it's fairly easy to get a double figures kdr and top the leaderboard in one

Every time I went up I got taken down in two shots by some fuckwad with a Stinger.
..and I couldn't use flares 'cause apparently they're an unlock.

Part of my dissatisfaction might've been because I couldn't bind my joystick..

Though others have said, I can see it giving me many hours of enjoyment, despite its flaws compared to BF2, so I'll probably end up buying it.

I still voted Yes/Yes. I don't think I would ever cancel a pre-order, but damn! DICE was really pushing it.

I voted Yes and Yes my self. I think this game is one of their best so far. Of course most of the bugs will be fixed in time if not at launch.

Yes and yes. I'm not naive enough to let a beta sway my decision. I know this game will be good from the videos I have seen and the experience I had with the beta, however terrible to was. It will be a good game imo, so I will buy it.

I think flares were the first unlock, it didn't take long to get them, once you have flares and heatseekers dogfighting is a lot easier

"stealth" was the first unlock.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuu, I've got to wait till the 27-28 to play it, depending upon whether I can get to the store to pick it up.

Played Shanqi on that BFplay4free lark. (granted that was toss) however looking forward to getting on to Shanqi on BF3 and having a jolly! I did enjoy that map on BF2.

Yes/Yes

I pre-ordered it before alpha, cancelled it (because I spent a lot of money for a car) and pre-ordered it again before beta.

Won't buy it unless they remove Origin
Why? Honestly what does it matter?
At the very least it's a matter of principle, I don't appreciate a triple A title being used as blackmail to force people into a service...

Ehrm... Half-Life 2, Valve and Steam?
Steam was seriously shitty back in 2004.

I had no problem with Origin so far, only that it's unnecessary for BF3, since that game is completely run through the web-based Battlelog.

You can't even join a BF3 game in progress through Origin, nor can you import friends from Battlelog.
Although, Origin is in beta state at the moment and if they fix those two problems, so I can use the in-game overlay for chatting, I don't care at all.
It definitely is better than GFWL, which is also forced on you.

I would have liked to have the game on Steam, with or without Origin, but on the bright side I won't have to swallow the overpriced 1€=1$ scheme and 50€ pricing there and can import a retail copy for 37€.

at the very least it'll keep me amused for the couple weeks before skyrim comes along. and pissing off people like patton with a sniper kit is always worth $60.
