yeah everything done exactly this way. still, it feeld very buggy.
it's really hard to find a server that does not lag. i also have this "stutter"
problem, seems like the hyper threading of the i7 2600K is the problem, dunno
have to wait for an update or something. at the moment it's pretty unplayable to me
Oh man, that blows. Hopefully they do come out with an update.
As for Steam releases? Won't happen, the game was published by EA and belongs to them. They've got Origin running now so I don't see any game published by EA being released on Steam anymore which is really annoying.
Well yeah every little dipshit plays this like its CoD.
No teamwork whatsoever 90% of the time.
Total chaos, campers, no commander like in BF2. Maps are shitty and predictable for the most part (Damavand and Metro in particular).
The graphics are astounding but I get way too many server disconnects.
Not very enthused about this so far.

Camping is an integral part of the gameplay for me, because there is an actual element of defense in this game, unlike most others.
I actually really like Damavand and Metro, on rush at least.... conquest is a different story.
For conquest though, there aren't enough maps like the North African ones from 1942.
With the whole teamwork thing, it just depends on the server, I think because there is the COD crowd playing a BF game for the first time, they will take their time in understanding that the game is about points rather than frags.
Then (hopefully) teamwork will become more prevalent.

I was raging so hard when my entire team was going as recon snipers when we were the attackers in Rush. I was the only one sneaking into the base and attempting to blow the M-Com stations up.
Sure on the urban maps I do it too cause it makes no sense, run out the alleyway to the market in grand bazaar you're setting yourself up for slaughter.
I only play conquest, didn't care for rush.
And yes, precisely, nothing like El Alamein in this one (or was that Tobruq, haven't played that game in 6 years).
Sadly I must conclude that yeah, I kinda suck at MPFPS, but the maps are what they are though. I do miss Karkand (which was better than any map on offer here) but they should have reused something from 1942 instead of Wake Island, Sharqi Peninsula and Gulf of Oman as far as I'm concerned. Operation Firestorm is already better than those three.

Blasphemy, WAKE ISLAND <3
They should have used more than just one 1942 map, there were loads of great maps on there, surely it wouldn't take much investment to re-create most of the maps from the previous games?

Wake Island will definitely be in the Back To Karkand DLC. I think BF3 lacks the real big conquest maps with spread out flags, where you did have to decide in which direction to go because they were literally in all directions.. that's kinda gone now with the flags being so close and pretty much in a row.
I didn't like Rush in BFBC2 at all but now I actually really enjoy it. Hate being attacker in Damavand Peak though, the first parts should be called "Sniper Peak" or something. I mean come on you're running downhill into the arms (guns) of like two dozen snipers.. pretty ridiculous except the team is really good.
And yeah there is 0,00% teamplay whatsoever. Also, people just don't spot. ever.
I love the jets but the teammates never spot anything so the only thing left to do is having dogfights with other jets (and fail miserably) and kill the occasional helo. I also noticed most servers have the 3d spotting turned off, which kinda sucks because it makes the spotting even more redundant. I hope after some time people will understand how important spotting is (and it's so damn easy, too!) and thus teamplay will rise. Also hope that most CoD guys will stop playing BF3 when MW3 comes out
The game (or the servers) are horribly buggy for me btw. Can't play more than 2 rounds at most, and connecting takes forever and won't work on a lot of servers.. plus the game lags a lot and the FPS drops without obvious reason from 45 to 5 every now and then.

Yeah, I think the issue is that they've not made any conquest only maps, so they all have to be bunched and fairly linear in order to work for rush.
I also think they could have made some slightly more impressive set pieces for rush, it's hardly an original game mode, yet every other game that uses it manages get a little bit creative.
