Lainer130 here.....Would like to try some of those co-op missions with my fellow FH'ers.  Tried playing with a couple random types online and they seemed to be fucking idiots.

BTW: Do you have Kluge and Switzer added Elche?

I've got kluge, but not switzer, hit me up if you wanan do coop. I'll be on a lot in the next week or so. Trying to get new weapons. That one level where you start up top then parachute off during rush all the way to the village. AMAZING

What else should it be but balanced. It has mirrored maps, mirrored weapons and mirrored playermodels. ^^
I really hate the map design by now. So many useless and forced chokepoints on many maps, that just kill any kind of tactical idea you could come up with.

Anyhow played FH2 again yesterday and had a blast. Nothing beats a game where you have to THINK! ^^

When soldiers think ... things become dangerous. You're not allowed to think as a soldier, soldier!

Don't add Ciu! It will really fuck up your K/D when you end up in the wrong team. ;)

I like it. Can't wait for a patch that gets rid of that box. Ideally though, Id like the choice in the options to turn the chat on/off, and the kill messages too.

Battlefield 3 Review...

Pros
The graphics and animations are A-mazing
The Voice acting is EXCELLENT
After a dime-a-dozen modern warfare titles, its refreshing to have a plot worth uncovering.
Gameplay and sound effect is on point.
Screw BC2, damage system here is how it should be...
64 players on PC... I will take one DVD please...
Waiting to see what I can drive, what I can shoot, how people play, who I can kill
I foresee a spinoff of this engine being used for WWII and Vietnam as remakes of BF42 and BFV EASY
A more realistic enemy count
Some really engaging scenarios... Recall the sniper bit? Or the plane section?
Multiplayer...looking forward to playing THAT!

Cons
Its modern warfare... bORING!
Really short singleplayer
Extremely linear storyline
Awkward mission triggers, that you sometimes can accidentally bypass causing bots to stand about
Bots are almost as stupid as CODMW2, just less aggressive
Lacks dismemberment... Should have had
Not that interesting character faces... Apart from yourself and one 2 others.
death animation... I am spoiled for CODMW death styles.
Plot leaves you hungry. Realistic, sure... But still lacking CODMW awesomeness
BIG NEGATIVE, COOP  is like CODMWs and not sandbox?

Score
8/10

Final Word
I really felt for the 3rd in the series should have had EVERYTHING captured from BF42 and BF2, including a free-for-all cap the flag type deal rather than human-vs-bot missions, and I think it would have been worth something if you could use vehicles more freely in singleplayer like you can in MP, just so you get the Battlefield-ness...
Finally, the AI was painful! However, the gameplay, like Medal of Honor Reboot and BFBC before it, gameplay rules the day... and after playing it, I feel CODMW3, which i am yet to get, will simply have a stronger storyline, but as painful a singleplayer experience as ever...

all in all, I rate this game higher than CODMW-anything, because it at least kept the title going. CODMW-anything, simply causes me to plead 'No more, please no more- You've killed COD enough as is'

btw; we had a guessing game a few months back about metacritics BF3 vs RO2,

current state:

BF3 --> http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/battlefield-3 (struggling hard to reach the magical 90!)
I predicted 93 so Im 4 off so far... let's see if it gets raised after some patches...
RO2 --> http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/red-orchestra-2-heroes-of-stalingrad
I predicted 75 so only 1 off!

Let's add MW3 as well --> http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3
81? really?.. that's 5 below MW2, whereas BF3 is only 2 behind it's prior game, which had a gap of six years, whereas MW only had two years between...

Keep in mind these numbers will change a bit as at least 2 of those games are recently released.

+ 1 for the fun discrepancy between metacritic and user rating on MW3, lol  :P

Well maybe reviewers dont get payed directly, but they certainly get thjeir benifits by hyping games >:(
I'm taking my own freedom
puttin' it in my song
singing loud and strong
proving all day long
I'm takin' my freedom
puttin' it in my stroll
I'll be hop-steppin' y'all
lettin' the joy unfold
