Sarap maglaro ng multiplayer! Laging may kaba sa dibdib ko pag naglalaro na ako

[adspie]

Very disappointed in this game, did nothing more than alter the fan base, not create a new one. it served to shun the old and faithful fanbase while enticing the volatile and unloyal pre-pubescent console fanbase. if EA wanted easy money they could have simply made BattleField 2 with better graphics, and spent very little changing much of anything. it would have sold like hot cakes and gotten VERY good community press. then they could have scaled it down and sold it to the console players for some extra profit. instead we got a complete reversal all in the name of "re-vamping the fan base" which is a load of crap

BF2142 is clearly the last of a proper Battlefield game. Bad Company 1 and 2 doesn't count, that's a BF game on his own.

It's all right man, I felt the same way when they completely altered the Day of Defeat Beta platform to cater to the CS player market when they released the retail version.

I'm a Battlefield fan but probably not as hardcore as you. Can you please shed some light on your statement above?

I started playing BF on their Battlefield Bad Company 2, what was it that you didn't like from that game onwards?

^I Have a thousand of hours in BF2 & 2142, The removal of commanders,VOIP, reduction in squad sizes, lack of transports, and poor map design all contribute to the reduction of teamwork in BF3. The commander back in BF2 and BF2142 gave a sense of direction and guided the game. The bigger squad sizes also reduced squad fragmentation and focused power into fewer squads. Now you have more squads running around with the ability to spawn on any squad member, and no commander to guide them. The game loses focus as it becomes a situation of musical chairs with flags. Flags are essentially being swapped instead of being fought over, because even within the squad, often guys are split up all over the place, So it ends up being that you neutralize a flag alone, kill 1 or 2 guys, then the flag is yours. This happened way less in BF2 and BF2142...Not only do I hate Patrick Bach, I despise him. Hyping his product with lies (he said "true sequel of BF2":july 2011) in the beginning and then avoid the community AT ALL COST

Battlefield 3 on PC Game GUI was too consolised & NETCODE were soooo terribleee!

[froshie1]

Netcode for the PC is terrible? Interesting... Netcode for console is supreme! Or baka naman iyong pagkaka place ng mga servers ng PC ay hindi maganda sa current location mo. I doubt this because between PCs and consoles ay mas marami ang servers ng sa PC diba. Eh sa console nga maski naka 1mbps ka ay maganda pa rin ang connection.

Interesting post.. I wonder what's with the commander? Is the commander the same as the squad leader?

But even if the commander is still present in the current BF game if nobody listens to "the commander" eh panget din ang labas ng game.

And what do you mean flags? Ito ba iyong icacapture mo iyong base and itatayo mo iyong sarili mong flag?

bro go with i3 2nd gen or AMD equivalent kung medyo alangin sa budget.

Meh, I don't even care. EA ruined Battlefield to begin with, so I'm just waiting for suitable replacement.

.

Battlefield 2 was a teamwork-oriented game with a fantastic modding community who gave the players more content and variety than the developers ever could, all for free (Project Reality, Forgotten Hope, Point of Existence). You could host your own server for your friends, play on LAN, watch replays of games you played from any angle, there was tools for organized teamwork and so on.

.

They trashed it all for Battlefield 3 and made it a simplified DLC platform to compete with COD. At that point it's silly to even whine about subscription fees etc, there won't be a true sequel to Battlefield 2, accept it and move on to other games.

.

Even if ARMA sounds too HC, keep an eye out for ARMA 3 when it comes out late this year or early next year. Unlike EA, Bohemia Interactive wants to make the money by making the game their fans want, instead of finding ways to milk the consumers and abuse the popularity of a franchise.

I really miss old times! Devs made games what they wanted to play, wanted their followers to enjoy and not because of money(Well offcourse little bit, but no such milking like right now). And there was no DLC!!!Everyone was happy!

Right now It's all about money. Dumbed down games so maximum ammount of people would buy it, DLC, day-1 DLC, on-disc DLC, exclusive stuff, this subscribtion s**t, devs ignore community, very buggy games and patches nowhere to see or patches that needs to be patched. How about thank you, we sold 10m, heres a free map, free DLC!!!

Nope!

CD Project RED, Bohemia Interactive, one of the few

awesome developers/publishers left!...the stuff they are doing to battlefield is a great example of how to kill your brand and loose your core fans..

Oo,very clear that netcode was designed for XBOX360 and PS3 and just ported it to PC, because it's based on lag, not low latency, sa PC worst na worst. for example sa PC yung ping mo ingame 250+ & sa akin 80+ talo parin ako

Ito po yung Job ng Commander sa Battlefield (video below) malaki yung tulong nya to integrate teamwork/teamplay sa battlefield, parang naglalaro sya ng RTS by giving orders,Logistics,surveillance,organisation,fire support, general oversight on the battlefield, vehicle drop at the same time shooting.





Explained Commander in BF2142 @14:46




siguro EA DICE nahirapan iimplement yung commander sa Frostbite engine since this was first introduce from BC1 (console) kaya parati sinasabi nila "to lower the threshold", BF1942 to BF2142 game engine used was Refractor. VOIP ingame tinanggal din nila one of the key feature in the battlefield sana ang dami features ng BF2/bf2142 na wala sa BF3 it was stripped and dumb down to cater consoles & COD fans.tingnan mo DLC nila nga ngayun "close quarter" COD clone and their planning to put subscription like "eilte" - battlefield Premium.

And what do you mean flags? Ito ba iyong icacapture mo iyong base and itatayo mo iyong sarili mong flag?

Yup

*bump* must...breathe...life...to BF3 Community in RP

[bf3]

Galing ako sa COD-mw, mw2,mw3,black ops at ang tagal ko rin naglaro ng COD sa ps3. Mas na addict ako sa bf3 dahil dun sa frostbite engine at sound effects. Linalaro ko sa ps3 at pc yung bf3. Mas enjoy sa PC dahil sa graphics at controls pero mas mabilis kumonek at flawless ang ps3. Sa PC panay hackers amf. Nakakbwisit minsan.

colonel service star 20. PC, colonel service star 5 sa ps3. Mas maraming bano naglalaro sa PC pero nasa PC rin yung pinakamagagaling. Wala pa sa kalingkingan ng ps3 at xbox yung crowd ng PC. times 6 or 7 dami ng players ng xbox at ps3. Talagang console ang naghahari. Kaya flawless rin ang takbo ng laro sa console kahit bitin sa graphics. Mura kasi console. Ang gusto ko sa PC eh kaya ng 64 players na punong puno yung mapa. At 24 lang sa console pero maayos naman yung spawning na parang puno narin yung mapa. Mas masarap rin magvehicles sa console dahil sa controls. Napagana ko rin yung ps3 control sa PC kaso naiirita ako minsan kelangan ko pa magswitch from keyboard to joystick kapag sasakay ako vehicle. Kakainin ka naman ng buhay ng mga keyboard players(infantry) kapag nagjoystick ka lang.

here are my stats
Kills: 18,412 Deaths: 16,701 K/D Ratio: 1.102 Headshots: 3,329, Longest headshot: 143.62m Lngst handheld headshot: 143.62m, Best kill streak: 19

6.5k+ shotgun kills, top 0% in the world. 36.7% accuracy, Rank 100 out of 84k. (spas 12).
5.6k+ sniper kills.
kills per minute top 4% in the world.

Sakin walang problema ke gayahin ng bf3 ang COD. Ganon talaga, mas malakas kumita ang COD. Panalo parin graphics, sound at gameplay ng bf3. Ang gusto ko lang sa cod di nakakaantok sa bilis ng gameplay.

Me silbi pala talaga in real life ang paglalaro ng mga games eh.
