Graphics look pretty sweet. I'd expect the MP gameplay to deliver as usual, hopefully the vehicle physics are a bit better than previous titles.

Who cares about SP in a Battlefield game? I bought Bad Company 2 on a Steam sale and I haven't even tried to play SP campaign

Also a quote from DICE:

So for our target of what we want to hit, we are now using the more powerful platform to try and prove what we see gaming being in the future rather than using the lowest common denominator, instead of developing it for the consoles and then just adding higher resolution textures and anti-aliasing for the PC version. We’re do it the other way around, we start with the highest-end technology that we can come up with and then scale it back to the consoles.

:incline:

Wow, you can smell the butthurt in here. Why bitch about a game that is actually being designed with pc users in mind?

Because it's designed to brainwash kids into being future kwa cannon fodder. That's why!!

looks nice and all, but i wanted some other scenario then the usual Freedom bringing Americans in the Middle East.

why not something like a future muslim revolt in central Europe? or shit going down in Asia.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
With all these modern warfare games I wish good old WW2 would make a return.

MPs, heavy MGs and bolt-action rifles are more fun than all-round jack of all trades assault rifle.

that is old too, but consider either WW1 or near-future turk/african uprising in Berlin scenario.

What happened to putting cutscenes in games? At least you could skip those, these days you just get shit like that sniper hunt which doesn't actually have any gameplay, just stop/go/stop/go/stop/go/shoot a building, while a sniper who is coded not to hit you shoots at nothing. Are you going to be able to skip that? Of course not, that's apparently gameplay now. Gameplay with no actual play in it.

Not that the actual gunfight bits look any better.

How exactly do you think they will sell such a game to Americans? US and surrounding areas are the major gaming market for such games. Creating a game where you play as Indian or Russian forces fighting against Chinese and Pakistani forces isn't really going to be appealing.

So Americans saving the world from Chinese. Islamic or Alien invasion is the best bet for most sales. Especially for a military shooter.

EDIT: On the side note, BF3 looks awesome and is PC friendly. I enjoyed Bad Company 2 SP a lot so looking forward to BF3 SP as well.

They have their own shooters, usually reskinned Counter Strike modded to shoot Americans instead. :P

MP is gonna rock by all accounts. This is going to be the closest thing to a "proper" PC FPS since the older Battlefields. BFBC2 was a step in the right direction, and this will get it just right.

The game doesn't look terribly interesting but i guess they do deserve credit for having the balls to pump the graphics to the max and essentially give consoles a big fat middle finger, particularly after Crytek turned into a bunch of fucking pussies. The butthurt among Black Ops fags is going to be sweet.
