This isn't Battlefield. And considering that DICE is choosing to release this piece of shit before the "Armored Kill" DLC, it seems that Battlefield as we know it is dead. They've shown us their priority, and that is to cater to the CoD crowd and place the true Battlefield fans in second.
I am done. I'm not buying this, I'm not buying the Armored Kill DLC, and unless the next Battlefield game completely goes back to the roots that made Battlefield the great and unique experience we all loved at one point (and I HIGHLY doubt that's gonna happen), I'm not buying that shit either. Battlefield is dead, folks. Time to move on. DICE is moving further and further away from what Battlefield is, and they're not showing any signs of going back.

If you think it's gonna be any better on PC... LOL.
This next map pack is 16 players max on all maps. 8 vs 8. Have fun with that.
Oh, I'm sorry spacefox. I didn't realize this map pack would render all of our 64-player maps useless and obsolete, destroying the community in one fell swoop.

That's a bit overboard, and you've had that stupid attitude about the game since day 1, so your opinion means nil.
BF3 is a great game. It's by no means perfect, but it's pretty fucking good.

Nah man, I'm just kinda disappointed that the one FPS series I thoroughly enjoyed is turning into complete shit.
I felt the same, I only liked playing BF, my problem is less with BF3 itself since I thought it was good overall and more with DICE the cockslurpers, seeing that I decided I was never going to give DICE another penny I figured there was no point in even having a PS3 anymore

BF3 is a great game, and you're right that me saying that was going a bit overboard. But it's not a good Battlefield. It just lacks what gives Battlefield its identity, and I know I'm being ambiguous as shit but I just can't describe WHAT it's lacking. I enjoyed it enough to reach rank 36 but that's pretty much when I realized, "Wow, this is really fuckin boring now".

That's a good point too. My problem with this DLC is less with the actual game or content but more with DICE themselves. They just don't listen, or acknowledge their mistakes. The fact that they're releasing this DLC first and the vehicle focused one in Summer is not reassuring at all.

Don't listen? The entire console community has been complaining their maps are too big for only 24 people... Also, for some reason 24/7 metro servers are on PC like a plague... I'd say they are listening.
Most of the BF3 maps currently out are rather large actually, Karkand, the last DLC, added 4 big maps. The next DLC being focused on CQC and 16 players makes complete sense from both a product release cycle, and what the community wants... Also, I am excited for it, I enjoy the infantry gunplay in this game on the PC a TON!!! It is very tight.
They are launching 2 other DLCs after this, and both of those will have large maps again. One theme DLC that doesn't appeal to YOU and only YOU doesn't mean they don't listen to the community...

pfft

I'd rather have Armored Kill first, but I'll SPM pad in some CQB action.
#1: We're getting private servers. That means AoW will be getting our very own large CQ map only rotation server with custom hybrid normal/WookieMode rules. (likely std damage, no regen, no 3d, killcam? i dunno we haven't gotten that far). There will also be swarms of other rented public servers with other configurations. This means you can now actually play battlefield the way you want to.
#2: B2K was far more traditional BF than the original maps.... sure, they gave us these weird half sized versions, but hey, refer to #1 They're ALL vehicle maps to some degree.... there's always a minimum of 2 heavy tanks at least. So releasing a infantry CQB pack first actually kinda makes sense.
#3: This is OPTIONAL content. You don't need to play it or get it. If you don't like CQB fighting, then it's not for you... simple. Play on the servers running full size B2K + Caspian, Kharg, & Firestorm on loop. Armored kill will be out end of august to end of september by my estimate.
Oh, and I was thinking about this last night, actually getting pretty upset at DICE over releasing 3 new paid DLC... BUT...
4 maps each, with a small handful of vehicles and weapons to add.
Now... that means we're getting 12 new maps, and overall a total of new vehicles and weapons all totalling about equal to a full new game release.... all for $45.
Beats paying $60 for 10 new maps and 3-4 new weapons on the same game engine on a "new" game... when I thought of it that way, I was a lil less perturbed. Especially since, if you don't like CQB like you, you can just skip it and get only the content you want and save $$.
I mean, FFS... it's either this, or everything their building would have just gone into Battlefield 3.5 for a new retail release, and you'd be paying $60 at the end of the year for all this same shit... and you couldn't opt out of the CQB maps you don't like.

^thisthisthisthisthisthis
See, thats the conclusion about this stuff you can come to by thinking.
I havent touched bf3 in a couple months now, but i reckon ill dust my ps3 off for this, yessir.
I happen to like cqc fighting btw, so therefore these maps will probably be a plus for me, just as much as the long winded vehicle maps (which i also like of course)
