ArmA 3 is going to Sodomize the Piss-Fuck out of BF3

Same I think the only thing CoD's missing is driveable vehicles. I know they're on their way there though (maybe 7 games from now in 2013). And I know when they get there they'll do them better than Battlefield. Because they suck kinda a lot in BF, which is why the whole vehicle thing kinda lost its luster.

I dont mind the vehicles in BC2 they work fine for me, if COD does come out with that then I will def buy a COD game

BC2 just kinda fucked itself over with the whole hit detection (both from bullets, and objects, and in vehicles) crap. Would've been a good game if that worked. Ugly, but good.

It's a much smaller number of people who are going to do this.

And you all wonder why DICE is opening their game up to the larger audience.....

IMO they are doing a good job of making the game more accessible while not making it pure twitchfest.

What PC players (that core audience) NEED to be asking for, instead of removing the accessibility (cause that ain't happenin, DWI), is to have fully customizable private servers to create your own Normal/HC hybrid.

Console Private matches should also have those same toggles which would allow leagues to come up with custom rules.

THAT is something they can provide without hurting their bottom line.

be rational

But people bitch when there's a WookieMode mode. lol.

Don't know why....

people like to play different ways.... what they need is to allow people to play any hybrid between the 2 that they want... though consoles that would be limited to Private Matches since we don't have private servers (or server browsers)

It's the 21st century, everyone who games has access to the internet. Facebook exists. It's all so connected. Look at Minecraft, which never spent a penny on advertising. Every player in Minecraft heard about it through word of mouth or good press. There's no excuse for "people stick with what they know" anymore. The game people find most enjoyable will sell.

This. Much as I dislike it, CoD sells well not because the consumer base don't know about BF, but because they're not interested in it. CoD 4 introduced a very smart, very addictive format that continues to hook people.

People are fucking idiots in general.

So therefore a game that everyone likes is pretty likely to fucking blow IMO, and a game that only a select few like, but like A LOT, is far more likely IMO to be something special.

....

But not arma. Arma can blow a staphylococcus.

Army of Two the 40th Day - Last time I checked, it had 200 players online lawl

...It's a fun game in co-op though but most of the co-op actions (open a door, step jump etc) feel really pointless and seem like they've been put into the game just to "artificially" make the campaign last longer.

Just so long as EA lets us rank said servers with that Shit turned off. Actually they should just Tear up the ROC for server owners.. i mean Jesus fucking christ- if people don't like the server rules find a different server. No one needs EA policing what privately owned servers do.
