Look me up in the PS1 forums, I told you guys the population would drop off if both OS wasn't deleted from the game.

Which CoD? And yes I do like BF3.

No you dont, because you are on a planetside forum so you don't like any other games!

Also this reminds me of the OP playing diablo 3 for the first time

50% of BF3's problem is small maps, and THAT will be corrected in PS2.
Almost all of BF3's maps (excluding Close Quartars) are 10x the size of CoD maps, what are you smoking? The games are alike in lore/setting only.


And for the record, I play a couple hours of BF3 almost every day and still post here waaaay too often. So anyone saying posting in a forum means you don't like modern games is a fucking derp.

I don't really care if PS2 is super-hardcore or not. I don't even have much riding on it being good, because my e-'claim to fame' isn't at stake here. But then again, I'm not the one who's afraid of my world coming crashing down if PS2 is more about fun. Let's not pretend this is a competitive series. It's just a bit of large-scale good times, and if you're worried about it being any more than that, you need to take a step back and look at your life.

It's a video game, not your life's work.

Re: Don't dumb down PS2


Remember how there werent projectile based physics and hit boxes? Invisible dice rolls were definitely a better mechanic. Remember the awesome empty spaces in between incredibly similar bases? Remember BFRs? ADADADAD? Remember the ubiquitousness of med packs, which helped foster lone wolves? Remember the subscription fee?

People who play smart and play together are still going to decimate their opponents, stop pretending the changes that are being made are going to break the game. I haven't heard one yet (besides footholds) that I am worried about.

BTW: I do enjoy BF3 but I can't wait for the scale and teamwork that will be found in PS2. Turns out you can like quake-style games and "modern shooters"! Crazy!

Aye, how dare I!?!

Seems about right

I'm going to have to go with elfailo's assessment on this.

How true and fun none the less. However we all know thats not you because it said inferno. It makes no sense for you to spend the hours to make it to inferno on a game you hate right?

...which could have been improved upon, not gutted.

You know its funny that you say that because I gave your mother a "shot" and she didn't seem to like it at all either.

Sorry but that was like the perfect set up and I couldn't control myself!

Re: Don't dumb down PS2


They DID improve upon it! A better netcode for the strafing, a hand-crafted map for the fighting, a F2P model for the money, a class system for the wolves, and a projectile-based gun mechanic. What about these solutions seems 'gutted' rather than 'improved?

That's a pretty weak sexual innuendo, "shot", actually it's nonexistent.
