Yes. Battlefield has always been a cartoonish game, not CS.
Ok, I never played the old Battlefield games (was never a computer gamer) so I wouldn't know. Personally though, me and my friends don't play anything other than Hardcore.
I just think if you're going to have real bullet/gun physics, the least you could do is up the power. With the new engine having much more of the environment destructible, better vehicle physics, I don't really think of the game as "cartoonish". Just my thoughts anyway.
I think CoD is more cartoonish than Battlefield is.
I think there's room for people that enjoy hardcore and people that don't on the planet.
That would, after all, be why there's both options available.
I get killed enough without knowing why or from where without having to have it happen MORE often on hardcore.
actually in my experience in BC2, it happens less on Hardcore mode since people actually have to see you to shoot at you, instead of one of their team mates tagging you with a red triangle above your head and everyone shooting at that
I'm not sure about the part where I get shot at point blank range by paintball guns when I get shot in game. I guess that reinforces the notion of playing carefully and not dying but still...definitely would wear a cup.
Kind of a weird question, but does anyone know if in previous BF, like Bad Company 2, you could reconfigure controls so you could aim down sights using RB, instead of LT?
I have a physical disability that doesn't allow my to use LT efficiently, and I don't want to waste money on BF3 if I'm stuck fumbling to aim down sight (not fun!).
I don't like how EA is not making BF3 available on Steam. Also, no Mass Effect DLCs on Steam. And there's nothing compelling me to join yet. I'm sure BF3 is a good game, but I'm not buying it until the price comes way down, after the snafu that was buying BFBC2 at $37.50 only to find out that the 3D was broken and wouldn't be fixed until the price was down to $7.50.
EA is using it's own service. I don't see the difference in downloading it from Origin instead of Steam. Friends list or?
It's unnecessary fragmentation and anti-competitive behaviour. I realize Valve has behaved similarly, but they weren't forcing you away from an existing service the way EA is.
I don't like how EA is not making BF3 available on Steam.
EA says Valve's policies regarding how DLC and such is delivered to the customer (EA wants to provide DLC and patches directly, Steam requires they go through Steam or something like that) are to blame.
There was this when Crisys 2 was pulled off Steam for the same reasoning:
