Going into town later. It was payday last Friday do is this worth picking up?

Yes. Servers are a bit dodgy because it's only just been released, but the game is amazing

Considering trading Arkham City in for this.

Most annoying thing is people playing Rush, i'm trying my ass off to try to defend the bombs and then you get people sitting at the back sniping just going for kills? They should go and play TDM.

Anyone got theirs off Amazon today? Should've spent 2 quid extra on shopto...

RideTheWalrus · « **Reply #805 on:** October 28, 2011, 12:04:56 PM »

Just got it. 30£, not bad.
Despise EA and their online passes though.

Anywhichwayucan · « **Reply #806 on:** October 28, 2011, 12:10:06 PM »

So, is it recommended? Much of a difference from the Beta?

Worth spending the money on? or am I best waiting a week for COD.

mrchimps · « **Reply #813 on:** October 28, 2011, 12:56:13 PM »

got it from ASDA last night 37 for the limited edition walked straight in past the 40 odd people waiting for the ps3 version.

I must say it pretty immense

Parachutes!? Tell me how.

This is the first Battlefield game I've bought so still getting to grips with all the features.

I'd imagine so, just think of what you can do on this as opposed to CoD:

(1) Jets, Helicopters etc... online

(2) More people in each game than on CoD

(3) No campers, more tactical really (IMO More fun you may not think so though)

(4) More game modes

(5) Bigger maps

(6) Environment is involved in this game i.e. if you hit a building with a rocket you'll see it, maybe with a big hole in the side, or generally just crumble the fucker to the ground

(7) And more importantly, less 12/13 year olds who go round spinning round with their snipers and shit, for some reason more kids opt for CoD as opposed to Battlefield, so that'll do me nicely!

As a COD man who has never played Battlefield I must say that is an impressive list. The jet simulator looks awesome, saw it on youtube. Does Battlefield have problems with servers as COD and having to upgrade patches? Thats the one thing that fucks me off with the COD series of games.

Lawnmowerman · « **Reply #820 on:** October 28, 2011, 01:25:20 PM »

What a chore this is to load it on the 360. Save the 2 discs to the hard drive, comes to around 15 gig, then downloading the HD content and all the other bits and pieces you get with the game

Every year I go for CoD as opposed to Battlefield but not done so this year as Black Ops and MW2 haven't really been great whilst this years Battlefield just looks too good, maybe I'll buy CoD when it drops in price but I'm pretty sure BF3 will be better than it, it just has so much more than CoD, see list for example.

If you've got the limited edition you've then got to go off to the market place to get your free stuff then go to eagunclub to go and get the pistol that you can unlock...

Then we must all wait for Karkand

Brilliant so far. Loving it, my fucking god I'm bad at flying helicopters/jets though. Really awkward when you get in a helicopter and 3 others get in with you, they have headsets and are asking you to go to the 3rd flag but I end up crashing about 10 seconds after we take off, killing us all

Same with me, get into a helicopter and your whole squad spawn inside it, a few moments later i've crashed into a mountain and killed us all

I just had a game where I got in a helicopter for the first time, had one passenger, managed to take off, fly to an objective, then just lost control, bailed out and parachuted down while the other bloke crashed. Never again.

As I'm running off I see a message in the chatbox "heli pilot wtf".
