Poll: Battlefield 3 to be ported... :|

[JokerCrowe]

I don't think it should be exclusive. But I don't think anything should be exclusive. Personally I feel that exclusiveness benefits the company more than the player. So I voted "NO".

 

[Quala]

And the guy who said console players can't strategize? Not cool man, not cool.

You can, but the games don't really allow you to to the same extent.

I'll agree with that. I thought you were saying we were stupid, which quite a few of us are, but most of them are content with playing nothing but Halo or CoD, and biting the heads off of people who suggest othrwise.

NOOOOOOOOO THEY CANT PORT IT!

They will just make it too arcadey, can't they just make a updated Battlefield 2 with better graphics and a much better hitbox?

what does arcadey mean?

Ehem. Shoots guy in the head (HEADSHOT KILL! 20 Points) ffs ruins immersion oh well..

Kills a guy about to kill a teammate (SAVIOR PIN! 50 points) oh for crying out loud.

Kills another guy just after teammate is dead (AVENGER PINN!!!!!)

And the same goes for Modern Warfare.. (DUBBLE KILL. KILLSTREAK AWARD! FIRST BLOOOOOD)

What i liked about CoD was it was a pretty immersive shooter. When they ported it to consoles it started getting all the pins and awards. I guess people blamed it on them?

It's not fact that a mouse and keyboard allows for much better precision and the game simply being designed for PC allows for much better customisation? If you really think so, I'm sorry for you.

And I was being fair though, I said that you can enjoy your joystick more than your mouse, it just doesn't mean it's better.

its still an opinion and not a fact.

 

[Bobzer77]

To be honest I'm sick of console fanboys calling us elitists.

It is undeniable fact that when a game goes from being developed for the pc to consoles it's dumbed down.

No amount of whining from console fanboys can erase that fact.

I'm in no way saying that consoles are bad, I enjoy playing console games but when it comes down to it the games are dumbed down.

That has nothing at all to do with the port, and has to do with the direction the developers decided to take the series.

So it's just an opinion when I go over to my friend's (who owns his BC2 on a PS3) house and suddenly realise that everyone on his BC2 servers sucks ass, for reasons that are clearly induced by joystick controls? Cool.

It's probably also just an opinion that Unreal Tournament 3 sucked precisely for being designed with consoles in mind, E.G. completely dumbed down lobbies and shitty texture loading times, among other things.

No they just suck, not like everyone on PC is a pro, I have seen a lot of sucky PC players aswell as Console players.

Also thats not consoles fault for UT3, thats the developer to blame, developers should do what the developers for Two Worlds 2 are doing, have a modified engine for all three versions that use that systems power instead of it being limited by anohter and develop each at the same time so then you don't need to port and none of the versions suffer at all.

You know what I think is sad? That you want to keep Battlefield on PC and claim that giving it to console gamers is "Selling out". That's not selling out, that's called sharing the love.

 

[Ghostkai]

Just because a game is on consoles as well, it doesn't mean the PC version will suffer.

Bad Company 2 has no prone.
Modern Warfare 2 is garbage. With no dedicated servers.

Only ones off the top of my head in recent times (loooooong day, fucking tube strikes), but I am sure there's others.

I think people are misreading the No prone, that wasn't becuase of consoles (in fact many fps on console have prone), they took prone out becuase they didn't want campers.

Nah it was because of the Dolphin diving from BF2.

Is that when people in a middle of a fire fight just drop down to the ground real fast and get as easy kill? I hate it when ppl do that.

Oh that's what it's called. I used to call it super-bunny-hopping.

They jump and press prone in mid air, so this kinda thing happens:

The line is the player.

Dropping down to the ground is kinda okay, I think. I mean people do actually do that. They don't bellyflop the floor, however, because that'd probably fracture ribs.

I was browsing bf3nation.com and I noticed a topic about BF3 being ported to console?

Being an all format gamer I am sure alot of the PC Gamers out there wont be happy about it going to consoles too.

I think its a bit 'selloutish' by DICE considering they have givin the consoles Bad Company 1 and 2.

Although I dont think DICE had much choice in this decision considering they have some sort of partnership with Microsoft (Correct me if I am wrong)

Dude, just because it's coming to consoles doesn't mean that the PC version will suck. If you've played the PC version of Bad Company 2, then you should know that it doesn't matter.

And why is it selling out to have it on consoles? Is it so wrong to let others play the game as well? Or do you want to feel special with your game, all for your own?

 

[Splitfire3]

i am a huge fan of the bad company series to the ps3, but even I realises that battlefield's best features is on the pc.. or at least thats my opinion on this. To have it exclusively for PC would in my opinion increase the possibility of an ultimate performance just like in them old days.
