I held back and sniped anyone rushing our way.

If they can sort out most of the bugs, think I'd love this game. Most COD players will probably hate it because it's a different style of gameplay.

I agree with the COD players comment. When I first started playing the demo I played it like I played CoD, and I got ruined.

I finally adjusted to the new gameplay and started doing much better.

I enjoy the demo, the gameplay is refreshing.

My biggest bug bear and this might just be me getting old, is that it's sometimes a bit hard to tell the difference between team mates and enemies! Loads of times I've thought it was someone on my team in front of me and for me to find out otherwise

Not just you mate lol. Me and Kooj were discussing this earlier in the day. I remember one time I was staring someone in the face, and that person was looking at me, neither of us shot for a while.

Then we both figured out we were enemies.. I died.

This.

Is friendly fire on? I'm pretty sure I killed some team mates. It was very difficult to tell who was who without concentrating your aim on them for a while.

[Morph Phoenix]

I was wondering that myself, because I'm also sure I killed a few teammates, I couldn't tell. I'll test this out on Kooj later.

I also found that stabbing doesn't work too good. I was standing behind a guy wanting to stab him without doing the animation, I stabbed him about 5 times and he wouldn't die. The animation works fine, but if you want to stab people quick it doesn't work.

[RaMarcus]

I got stabbed a few times and that animation is terrible, all glitchy. I hope the 'Kill Cam' type shots are sorted as well as you either see your killer so close you can see their underwear or spleen or you look at an empty bit of floor

Aren't warriors supposed to go ''commando''

The view I get in one in 3rd person looking at them from the front. Which isn't much fun at all. I don't need to see the face of the guy who just killed me.

If what Cabbie said is true, then I'm a warrior.

You...are...a...chav, going ''commando'' won't fix that

[Morph Phoenix]

I feel the only way to fix you insulting me using chav is to bring Tokyu back.

You know, tokyu, an actual chav and not me, not an actual chav.

Ooh yes, please do The best thread on TER ever was Tokyu's birthday presents (he called it something like that), where he post pics of what he got with his birthday. It was brilliant

Same here but its too close for comfort!

[Kooj]

they announced "Platoons" which is basically clans need to access their social media bullshit and cant import friends from XBL till launch but i'm sitting on "The Elite Renegades" name as believe it or not other people have used it, doesnt see if names are purely unique but though best to be safe, if anyone wants to pre-emptively join before launch sign into battlelog search for us, logo is like a shield with a bird on it, *(banged it up fast like) and if i have to accept or anything gimme a poke

Very cool mate, I'll take a better look at this later.

[Morph Phoenix]

It won't let me log into that link Kooj, says I'm not allowed?

Send a request to join Kooj, you have to accept it your end.

[Kooj]

you need to sign in with your EA account and shit first and make sure your own battlelog is working first, when this shit is live i can just invite you from xbox live or facebook but right now its origin inviting only or you have to log in and apply

[Morph Phoenix]

I did it, I just tried signing in with the wrong account at first, I clicked the apply to join tab.

[Kooj]

ok sorted when we get everyone in who plays it has like in clan rankings and average stats across whole clan, like, whos best as an engineer and average accuracy, seems better for consoles this, as PC you have to launch the game and do everything via battlelog, but im getting it on xbox so lol to hermits

[Kooj]

oh guys in regards to the beta heard a EA staff member on battlelog say flat out joining as a squad is disabled, so i think it just dumps you in the same match and makes no attempt to put you together and if you get together its coincidence

also game generally works better like before 8-9 o clock as less yanks on but weekends could just be a write off, but weekdays get on early as possible if you want a smoother experience

[RaMarcus]

Well my PC is fucked so I'll be on my 360 a lot more... damn thing just stopped working, power light on Mobo is on but nothing works... will try and sort it out tonight though.

[Kooj]

Giantbomb has a quicklook of battlefield 3 nothing but Xbox 360 footage with the high res option on

http://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-batt...3/17-5134/

[RaMarcus]

Skipped the campaign part and watching it now

[Kooj]

Giant bomb guys kinda nuts but makes me hope post man is nice and early got work at 3pm

[Kooj]

Looking at videos of multiplayer of the final version, one main thing thats changed from the beta is, when you blow buildings up and debris falls to the ground it does stay there

http://uk.gamespot.com/shows/on-the-spot...ve20111024

3 hours of multiplayer footage, the 360 footage as it swaps between versions is without high res texture pack

[Morph Phoenix]

It's a battle for me, but I think MW3 will win this battle due to the amount of people I know who will be playing it over this game.

I have eight people I'll be on MW3 with, not so many on BF3. But I will get the game, just nearer to christmas perhaps.

[RaMarcus]

Zavvi posted mine yesterday, hopefully have it tomorrow. I think I prefer the idea of this over CoD for two reasons.

One, CoD Elite. I hate the thought I'm missing out on something, mainly as I won't buy it as it offers little for me.

Two, just the pure scope of the game type. I can be a healer and a support person with midi packs and suppressing fire, have fun in vehicles and just feel it will be less about K/D ratios.

[Kooj]

On beta finished top with like 6 kills in games sometimes just rolling as a medic type ressin and dropping medi packs

I totally get why Ian is getting it though

mine could be here today for all I know not seen post man and had to leave for work 3 till 9 shifts for rest of week joy...

[RaMarcus]

Mine didn't come today but should be here tomorrow as I had an email yesterday to say it had been posted. Owen got his FIFA 12 a day early from the same company so I will be on it tomorrow night

[Kooj]

Had to remake platoon for TER its up now, feel free to join let me know when to accept

[RaMarcus]

Sweet, will take a look later.
