If there aren't any vehicle maps then I don't want to play anymore.

I am so fucking pissed. It's been like 3 months and still no patch.

I don't want some fucking stupid DLC that I'm not going to buy anyway, I that fucking 3 page of patchnotes to be in the goddamn game.

More Rocket/Genade spam otw...

I haven't played BF3 in about 3 months. Having more maps like Operation Zergfest is definitely not going to get me back to playing any time soon.

You're not the only one who thinks so and that's exactly why the third DLC is called END GAME.

I am kind of looking forward to Armored Kill, but I probably won't be playing any more BF3 until then.

Played BF3 for around 13 hours online and I already got bored with it. Half of the MP maps I don't like. And that fucking motar. With idiot thought it was an good idea to put that in the game? Doesn't help that it has unlimited ammo... (really?) So I am not going to buy the mappack('s). Only if it is a BF2143 mappack.

Boohoo. People need to stop crying about it. They're doing some different gameplay, big deal, don't buy it then.

2143 is undoubtedly going to be the next game in the BF franchise. DICE need to practice and learn from close quarter gameplay in order to make the Titan battles good.

All the drama and qqing about it is ridiculous. Gamers are the most entitled drama queens in the world. Watching the BF3 community cry about it is like watching an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras.

Boohoo. Quit crying about people crying about it. It's called an opinion, read up on it a bit.

I have no issue with the expansions. I agree with you, if I don't feel there's enough value in the content I just won't buy it.

HOWEVER, all of this DLC is completely holding back the real work that needs to be done on the game. Why have we been waiting for this recent patch for nearly four months now? Because they are wasting their time trying to get the next huge cashcow out the door rather then actually support the game.

The patch is certified and probably coming in ~ a week.
DLC is in June.

Obviously, things such as time management and multiple teams do not exist. You canallocate as many people as you have to one thing at a time. And you should! Because more people = a task done faster, always. Tell a million people assemble a single bicycle and it will be done in a tenth of a second. It couldn't possibly be more efficient to have a million people build 100,000 bikes at once.
What-the-fuck-ever. It's pretty damn obvious you've got no rationality about these things. You're just bitching because things aren't perfect for you.

The game works pretty damn well as is, you should not be this upset about it.

No, I'm bitching because the game had tons of mediocre things about it that needed fixing. They delivered an unfinished game, as well as making some horrible decisions, like Metro for instance.

Post patch will basically be what we should have had last year.

I would be playing a lot more of the game if my pc didn't blue screen after three seconds of playing it.

I have loved every bf game pretty much and I really like this iteration, few things I would tweak but overall good.

Their engine supports it, the mechanics are GREAT fun in close quater combat on Metro (except for the damned spam) and I for one can't wait to play BF3:CoD

What's wrong with it for me is a gamer is there is no originality in the industry right now. Everyone is just repeating the same exact things to rake in money.. no real innovation.

Sorry, Hamma but I've got to call bullshit on this, or severe nostalgia goggles. Talking blockbuster titles, perhaps, those have always existed in some form or another, but overall the gaming ecosystem is more diverse and interesting than it's ever been.
Systems like Steam, PSN and XBL Indy Games, and just the plain old internet.

Just of the top of my head, some stuff in the last year or so:
Bastion
Journey
Minecraft
Even bigger stuff like Portal 2, LA Noire, Deus Ex, ME3 offer mixes of innovation, style, story and familiar mechanics.

I don't think there's been a better time to be a gamer.

(this is the same fucking argument people make about any given media all the damn time, old movies were better, old music was better. Guess what? You only remember the good stuff, you don't bring the shit with you as a classic.)
