Mine roll into the ground like a ferris wheel.

Please fix the game, DICE.

This kind of fundamental problem is really unacceptable.

I don't like the game play more towards COD.

Wait till you play Caspian Border.

Thats a true Battlefield map, not shitty Operation Metro.

Still Metro would be a nice breakaway if you have other maps mixed in the server map list. I just hate it if you keep playing on Metro for next 3 hours.

Lets hope they improve Battlelog.

I start to see the point of having Battlelog. It is meant to remove the time of loading the main menu and then, wait for server browser to load then only get into the game. Anyone played any previous Battlefield will know how much fail is DICE's main menu design. The server browser sucks, especially BF2's one as its so slow. Using Battlelog does cut down the time by a lot. It is also nice that i can spam LYN when waiting to get into a server.

On the other hand, it still feels weird to start a browser to play a game.

I start to hate the damn remote spawn radios.

They are damn annoying as you'll get random defenders backstabbing you. Looks like its gonna be a pain in Conquest too with enemies ninja capping you all the time, like a ninja.

I think i have enough of the Beta.

Operation Metro is just a damn map trying to please the CoD audience. It has everything that defines CoD, such as selfish camping or corridor shooting. No point trying to be team player here as no one cares at all. I play medic and most of the time, i am healing myself.

The unlock system is stupid, why do i need to unlock red dot for every single gun separately? To keep the stupid CoD fans playing BF3? I dont need this kind of stupid carrot to keep me playing. I just need a large map like Caspian Borders with lots of vehicles to keep me coming back or interesting maps to keep me interested.

That brief 1 hour i had in Caspian, i had much more fun playing than playing 10 hours on Metro, because its a Battlefield map. Not CoD in Battlefield skin.

BF3 suppose to be a Battlefield, not another fukken CoD.

Dont give me the bullshit that its a Beta, its 24 days before release and there should not be retarded bugs everywhere. The game has so many flaws and problems.

They shut down all Caspian servers already

Caspian should be the main map for the Beta. It defines what Battlefield is.

Metro is just a piece of shit.

The last time I've checked, BC2 have an infantry-only map too... with lots of corridor shooting and grenade-spamming.

And... don't you need to unlock red dot for every single gun in BC2 too? Why complain about it in BF3?
*
Even cold war isnt as stupid as Metro, as least its still pretty fun trying to sneak around. Not to forget almost everything in Metro is indestructible and none of the BC2 maps has so much corridor shooting. I have no doubt that Metro is made to please those CoD dumbasses to buy the game. Whats the point of showing an infantry map on a public beta for a game that is about vehicular warfare?

In BC2, once you unlock red dot, you have red dot for other guns. In BF3, you have to unlock them one by one, which is stupid or like CoD.

Looks like you have played the wrong game.

There are a few issues that I think DICE needs to do about the game play though. BTW, Operation Metro is already starting to bore me even after only a few games.

If you keep playing Cold War in BC2, it will get boring too. Metro is the same, as if there are other maps mixed on the server map list, i would say it wont be that bad. Instead it might be a nice change of pace from those big maps.

DICE took the wrong map,IMO. Caspian Borders will be a better map for Beta.

why the f do you guys compare it with the previous battlefield games. sure it was fun but hey, i mean dont you want something new?
*
I am sorry to say, even any Battlefields and Beta are not as buggy, retarded and lack of features as this one.

So, you say something new as a CoD map in a Battlefield? No thanks, and i'll take 5 more Cold War any day, sure, it is infantry combat but at least i can level buildings in that map. Metro is an indestructible subway with only some random walls and signs destructible. Except the last bit where you can destroy a building's facade which is pretty cool.

Even the ground is indestructible, so much for Frostbite 2, where i remember BC2's ground are destructible too, where a hole can be also used as cover. And snipers werent as powerful as BF3. Then, i wont fall through the ground for no reason and BC2's unlock system was pretty reasonable. None of this present in BF3.

How about Squad Management? Its gone now so that CoD kids can play without worrying about team work. And DICE confirmed that the full version will not have any in game squad management.

Do you remember Port Valdez map on BC2 Beta, it as an AA vehicle and a MBT? Why Metro dont even have an APC? I doubt its because of balance, as the first MCOM at the defender side has no vehicles too, and Metro have plenty of cover, if not more. Dont forget that vehicles in BF3 can be disabled and people can be killed from the inside if you fire your rockets properly. There isnt any logical reason on why there should not be a vehicle in the first 2 MCOM.

BF3 is made as anti-CoD, by copying some of the CoD's gameplay. Metro just made me feel like im playing CoD than a proper Battlefield.

Thanks for sharing.

From a post by DICE
EA is trying hard to discourage people from using Origin.
Maybe you guys should consider playing with another mule EA account if you want to play those "illegal" servers, especially if you have other games in your EA account  sweat.gif

Good work, EA.

At first you made me to start hating NFS World, and then, now, you also want me to dislike your BF3.

Looks like i should be going indie with games now. Mainstream games are getting as retarded as mainstream music.

Yeah, that what I thought too. I just wish the whole bf community realize this and demand for dedicated server files to be released to the public after the retail. Sorry if I sounded too harsh but right now I felt the game is like pay2play on the multiplayer part. Maybe its fine for most of you here but I cant afford RM300 every year...sad.gif

Definitely, the game feels like a cheap Korean MMO connected to a really advanced engine.

The way DICE spew out garbage does make me feel like canceling my pre-order. Also, there are a lot of missing features in the game.

Cancel it then, and i dont think i want my Steelbox limited edition anymore, considering how shit is this game.

Reminds me of playing Black Ops.

Now i hope The Run and Mass Effect 3 dont shit all over me like BF3, NFS World, Crysis 2 and Dragon Age 2. 2011 is indeed a year of failed gaming. Looks like there are no major publisher to trust these days.

What one map?

Squad management has nothing to do with maps.

Even Metro is turning me off from playing because its so shit.

Just wandering where the hell you guys spewing such words without any sources
not that i care much it anyway but at the same time
putting a sources link will backup your word and make people think you aren't a troll
because nowdays we living in
Play it or GTFO

just a piece of advice from me
random talking is always like this

COOL STORY BRO~!

You know what, i dont accept bullshit like this so-called Beta that is bug ridden(kudos for them in fixing the soil issue) and lack of a lot of features. Its not like a cheap game to begin with and its a high profile game. I played numerous Beta before this and none of them are this game breaking and retarded.

I played Battlefield since BF1942 and i have no reason to hate BF3 before this. It does look good but the whole Beta just took off the rose tinted glass i have been looking through all these while to such a shitty game. BF3 feels like playing another CoD, with idiotic unlock system where a high ranked player no longer seem scary because everyone can level up easily, stupid CoD styled map, no squad management or even a proper menu to tweak settings. The game play is good, but the interface around it is so crappy.

Someone did post a thread about no Squad Management on Battlelog. Have fun looking through there.

Okay, a BETA for a game that is supposed to be RELEASED in 23 days that is so broken? I am taking you as trolling.

What can they do with the feedback they got these few days? They cant implement all these changes in time for even day 1 patch. So, you are assuming that i am getting my Squad Management menu back in full release.

2011 - Portal 2

This one also disappoints you? I play Portal series for first time and one of the game I preordered..enjoy it a lot although I play Single Player only, the co-op is nice too.
*
I am waiting for Portal 2 sale.

Its too expensive to spend 50USD on a short single player game.

So far only Shift 2, Space Marine and Human Revolution turns out to be decent games.

i personally like this. makes you squad up first before going into a server. but then again the old squad management should be in also imo
*
Then, what happens if im in a squad with 3 snipers? In BC2, i always change squad or start a new one myself.

Now, i cant do that anymore because there is no squad management.

I definitely do not want to be shoved to a team of snipers like how they force me to use Battlelog.

QUOTE(sasaug @ Oct 2 2011, 02:03 PM)
Since the open beta server is using lowyat.net and everyone know its hacked server, it's going to ruin our name for now.

It won't be good to my side either especially I'm so close to obtain gaming.lowyat.net domain D=

Yea, would be nice if we only use lowyat for legit purposes only.

There are only 23 days from release. No doubt there are a lot of improvements past few days, but the current state of the game is not ready for release.

I know the fact that its a Beta where things are suppose to be broken, but i never expected it to be this broken to the point where some basic features are also absent. A beta should a version of the software that has all the features and it should be ready to release.

Tell me what happen to server queuing, squad management in the game, changing graphical options in game, broken key bindings and that silly "The server is changing map soon, please try again later".

its just a matter of trust really... you and i know there are many bug + glitch + lack of features from past BF games (ie ingame squad management).. how many of those can they fix in a mere 15 - 20 days? do you trust them to able fix in mean time? or no?

and there is rumor saying this beta is actually tweaked alpha release, and there is actually more polished build they are hiding.. really? can you trust this statement?

thing is, do you trust DICE + EA?

as for me.. i wanna see the final release first before i buy... not gonna believe words anymore.. only believe what i see..
hope no more argument on this thing... its just silly... nothing is gained, and time is wasted...

nway an update? i love updates.. haha
*
I did read about the Beta is a separate updated alpha cause the alpha is even worse.

I doubt they can fix some of the major bugs in 23 days. The discs are probably in the manufacturing process now.

Definitely in the manufacturing.

Here hoping the day 1 patches to fix some of the problems.

I remembered BC2's server browser had no filters when it first released. It was patched in later on. So, here hoping that they will provide squad management later on.

Cheesenium: I've heard that the beta we're playing is a month-old build. This run is more for the servers really. Test load and what not. I am expecting the final build to be much cleaner.

I heard it's 2 months old, but there are no sources or anything.
