I would like to first off and say that I am sorry to see you go. But to those who still hang out on these boards I just have a few questions. Why is it that you are leaving this amazing game? It seems like most of you guys aren't enjoying the new patch, which baffles me because it seems like you guys were QQing before the patch. What is it that you would change and explain how the way you would want it be more balanced than the way it is. Also another question I had was, do you guys play with friends? I have noticed that when I play with my friend I have a much more enjoyable time playing than I do by myself. I feel that this game requires team work to perform most of the actions in this game. A tank can only be so leathal without a gunner watching out for C4 ninjas. I feel this game is much more greather than most people on here make it seem. --- I fully support ROFLCOPTER | |
It seems like most of you guys aren't enjoying the new patch, which baffles me because it seems like you guys were QQing before the patch. Im not on their side, but i would like to point out that the patch fixed things as well as broke other things. Its very easy to complain about one thing pre and a completely different thing post patch and that is more likly the case. For example, pre patch- usas frag post patch- the supression Not related at all and a problem in different patches. PS: i do not have a problem with the game currently other than the M26 Dart. I was just throwing in my 2 cents about the quitters. --- "It seems to have run its course, gone off course, rolled down a cliff, hit a cow and then exploded."~Sven(About a thread.) | |
While i am not quitting BF3 (not until a replacement shooter arrives) i can point out some serious flaws in BF3. 1. Custom servers have ruined the playing lists to the point where a average player can barely find original servers. There is no excuse on how this wasn't handled better, The fact that customer servers can include 'p24' and {DICE} shows how much effort and thought was put in before this feature was activated. 2. Suppression is overboard, DICE admitted it was too much and they are apparently toning it down in the next patch (END OF DISCUSSION). 3. Stale gameplay, This game has been out for nearly 7 months. Most games lose about 25% of the community every quarter(3 months). This is nothing you can control and is naturally the flow of the Xbox 360 community. 4. Last but not least still broken/balancing issues, We still have a bunch of useless guns and the m26 exploit. Everytime DICE patches something they break something else. IMO Custom servers and Suppression are the real deal breakers here. Custom servers let admins become total douches. Suppression makes BF3 gunplay very dumb-downed or 'unskilled' as it rewards inaccuracy. *Suppression however is not up for discussion, DICE has admitted publicly already that they went overboard with it. There is no reason to discuss this point anymore. --- Gamefaqs, The only place where a Single post can get moderated, Overturned and then RE-Moderated. Pathetic. | |
For starters This game borrowed way too much from bad company and some of the game mechanics just dont work when you throw them in a battlefield game. Vanilla maps are horrible. Without B2K I couldnt stand to play this game. The maps in this game were clearly designed for rush mode. B2K itself felt like a huge scam. The standard and limited editions cost the same price. Purchase the standard edition you will need to pay up an extra 15$ for the maps, purchase the Limited edition, you get the maps for free. Why not just offer the throw back maps to everyone who purchased a brand new copy of BF3 instead of throwing in some ridiculous online pass? Destruction is a huge let down. Only certain parts of building can be destroyed. The unlock system is just stupid and partially unbalanced. Its completely unnecessary to make the player unlock the same side arms 3 times. Tanks and other vehicles are required to unlock armor plating and secondary fire, this just punishes players for lacking play time. The patch made things even worst. Suppression is ridiculous and it failed horribly at simulating real life. the gun gets scared instead of the soldier being effected. Being more accurate with your shots at long ranges puts you at a disadvantage if the enemy shooter is missing their shots. weapon and equipment Balance was done poorly. The solflam has more explosives resistance then the eot bot which is ridiculously stupid. Tanks can be stopped in their tracks with one shot, really unnecessary when you weakened the repair tools. just like suppression, vehicle disable was implemented in the dumbest way possible. Dice is ignoring battlefield fans and only want to canter their game to people who whine or lack skill. Too long to read?. Ea is still alive and dice has no common sense, at all. | |
The patch should have eliminated mav riding, toned down the ridiculous frag rounds for shotties, and thats about it. I really had no other big issues with it. Now, server idea sucks, suppression sucks, recoil sucks, tanks are weak, flares are overpowered, ECM sucks a$$, I freeze up a whole lot more for some odd reason, and i've got gas. Also dislike how much love close quarters combat is getting....this is a BATTLEFIELD game! --- "Competition and Cheating can't co-exist" | |
Nirvandy posted... I would like to first off and say that I am sorry to see you go. Whenever I see someone start off a topic like this, I immediately picture them looking like this guy: http://jalopnik.com/5907932/vigil-tonight-for-man-beaten-into-coma-after-complimenting-wheels (scroll down for picture) TL;DR - two guys meet each other. First guy compliments the second on the way his car looks. Second guy, naturally, beats the first into a coma. Picture is of the second guy. --- "On topic: Eminem is the greatest rapper alive." - tarheelborn15 "Holy ****....How many rappers have died today????" - Luda848 | |

Honestly, objectively, there is a lot wrong with this game but that in of its self isn't terrible but rather how DICE likes to respond to problems with the game. Modern games have a lot of polish but very little refinement. The maps, weapons, gadgets, vehicles, and physics are all very detailed but are put together quite poorly. Then when DICE decides to "patch" things they think best to do it in just one massive batch patch which then breaks as many things as it fixes because the QA of such a massive patch is incredibly difficult. The proper way would have been small patches over a long period of time. I find it incredibly funny that DICE managed to roll out a hot-fix for tank armor yet leaves the completely broken M26 MASS, further degrading how the player views the developer. Now consider the life-span of this game. It isn't going to be the flag-ship Battlefield game for years to come. Its no Counter-Strike, lasting for over a decade. When people have a problem with a modern game, especially serials that have seasonal releases, it is very easy to just drop it and wait for the next "version". The only reason why BF3 will live for a while is because of the life-support it is attached to: the hope that the planned DLC will provide a "better" experience. Yet it doesn't help that for the first several months they completely alienate the player. --- This doesn't look like an accident... | |
#1 - private servers in quickmatch and no way to filter them out completely #2 - The gunplay is terrible in general and supression is a total disaster #3 - all the vanilla maps suck they are all too big or too small for the pathetic 12 man teams | |
I'm still playing every now and then. It's like what other people have said. They fixed some stuff, only to "break" other things. For me personally I used to use AA missiles and the IRNV pretty often. Now I find both of them to be pretty worthless. Mines are also nearly worthless. That was something else I used a lot of. I just had to change my gamestyle. Yeah it sucked a bit, but I'm still playing. --- HairyAssApeman Come at me. |
