Go play the beta. It's free and pretty fun. Much better than the last 2 titles. Of course it's glitchy cause it's a beta and the EA servers are unreliable, but once you get into it it's a lot of fun. I played on Xbox and now i'm downloading it for PC.
 
Got it on PS3, glitches here and there; overpowered DAO-12 and Magnum IMO.
 
Unreliable as fuck. And next to impossible to get your crew in a squad together...let alone even on the same team. But when it works...damn it's a nice game.

I'm surprised it's as good as it is
 
1100+meg download?? no thanks...

I'm playing Bulletstorm (insane kills), And just bought Homefront for $13. I'll wait for Bad Co. 3 like I did the other 2 Battlefields and pick it up for less than $20. I did pre-order the HD ver. of HALO, just can't help myself.......when the frack is Infamous 2 going to drop below $20? It's pissing me off.............

What is your ISP...by carrier pigeon? Took me not even 10 minutes to get it on Xbox live with my Comcast.

Yep, download goes fast unless you're on a 56k, phoone booth, or tin can with string. :dunno
 
1100 megs is nothing like said above. 10 minute download.
 
30 minutes, but I have Verizon DSL. my download speed is 1000 kbps on one site & 5 Mbps on another site.

Played it for about a minute, but it's only online, so I deleted it.

I did think it was cool that I could gernade a tree down and use it for cover. But, I hate playing online.

BF2 is still 100 times better. All they need to do is take BF2 slap on better graffix and some better weapons call it a day.
 
3 hours in, I'm hooked .. looks sweet, can't wait to buy it and try out the vehicles
 
Agree, BF2 was way better......just bope full version is better than beta
 
The beta is crazy fun, and the game looks to be way more versatile than BF2!

BF3 is the Bees Knees. It has some beta issues but for the most part it is amazing. No lag, No video issues and the play is fluid. I really enjoy how I no longer come up to something and think "here comes that invisible wall I get stuck on". Now I just keep running and hop over the object like I would have in real life. I also enjoy the fact that no one is jumping all over the place! The scope glare is great, the flashlight lighting is amazing and the natural lighting effects are sweet. As much as I like shooting everyone I find myself starring off into nature because it is so pretty.
