In a action that I can only describe as Bungie level community interaction,

Please don't insult what they did. This was very nice of them and we want them to do more of this stuff in the future. Calling them dicks for fan service? Uncalled for.

Hm?
Do you have an issue with Bungie, because they are probably the most dedicated to the fans in the business. Seriously, their forums are regularly checked and they include the requests in monthly updates...so, if that's your concern...

I often look at marketing and I go "Come on, you can do better than that."
But this...
This makes up for all the pretentious Apple commercials and dramatic-car-driving-on-dark-road ads. ALL OF THEM.

They have focused on copying Call of Duty in every way that makes Battlefield not be Battlefield for this game and even in their trailers they can't take their eyes away from Call of Duty.

Hooray for small multiplayer maps and a linear campaign. At least they can make a joke about the one difference from CoD they have shown so far.

BF3 is gonna have big multiplayer maps , destructible environments, and vastly superior to MW3 in every way.

And DICE did modern warfare 2 years before COD did.

Bloody hell, how much non-valueadded me-tooism behind a weak ass joke like that can you get.
This is activision saying they see their target audience as snotling hoardes when they fish the troll pool like this.

I paid the entirety of my preorder for BF3 Upon its announcement. BFBC2 is one of the best games I have ever played. Period. This dinosaur business is the icing on the er, French Fancy.

What th- Have you even /played/ a BF game? Ever? Cod Took Battlefield's gig and screwed itself over.

I have no words.
DICE, you have done right by us humble internet dwellers. And I now love you.

You will have my money come release day of Battlefield 3.

 

[WorldFree55]

This is pretty damn hilarious but I ask, is 4chan really the audience you want to cater your game to? Aren't there any respectable gaming communities *ahem* to turn to for recommendations?

 

[captaincabbage]

Oh fuck me, this is funny!! I was on that thread when it was originally posted on /v/ too! I got at screencap before this one, but this one was much better.

I'm so fucking glad they included dinosaurs. Good job DICE.

oh, you must only have a console, well Im going to be enjoying my 64 player maps but I am one of the pc gaming master race

 

[Denamic]

That is absolutely hilarious.

Excellent marketing and all, but I just love the fact that this sort of thing happens.

Can you call it derailing a thread when it was never 'on' the rails to begin with?

4chan threads are always on topic.
The thing is that the topic isn't always what you expect it to be, or what you intend it to be if you're the OP.
Make a post with a sexy girl and call for a discussion, the actual topic might turn out to be about the furniture in the background, and so on.

I like the way that the 4Chan thread in response to this devolved into bickering less than halfway down the page.

Personally, I think that this is awesome! I love it when companies interact with the community like this, even if Gearbox's wedding proposal was even cooler.

...I didn't see the dinosaur! WHERE IS IT DICE

Most indie devs are more involved with their fanbases AND produce better games.

For MW3 to even contest with BF3, they better have T-Rexs with lazers. Because if not, they are not getting my money.

 

[sansamour14]

so it wont be the graphics, gameplay, or massive maps that will determine who wins this years fps war...........it will be dinosaurs........awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
