Read my post where I quoted you. I post good shit sometimes. When I don't get quoted on the good shit I post, I get aaangry.

But how is that a good thing? It may be a good thing because you like realism in the games you play, but it's not a point to be used that isn't based on opinion. You can dislike realism. If you really want to say one is better than the other you need a point which is impossible to find that no one can disagree with.

I do agree that it is my opinion, as I much prefer realism in games. I do also realise though that CoD appeals to a huge amount of people, way more than Battlefield. People can think what they like, I'm just gigving my opinion. (:

It's a good analogy because it exaggerates your point. That is the purpose of an analogy. If you can't wait 30 seconds to respawn and it causes you to think a game is incredibly boring, you're just very impatient.

Take the 30 second respawns... and add them to enormous barren maps, slow travel times, and alot of dying. It adds up.

Protip: Don't die and you won't have to deal with that.

Also, shut the fuck up. Both of you.

I used the XM8 for the the first 15 levels. And that was the first assault rifle you get.

Go NOW, get Battlefield 2, then shut the fuck up.

Multiplayer wasn't as popular in 2002 as it is now.

I don't know about you, but I played a lot of multiplayer back then. I never had trouble finding games or anything either.

I always thought the very first LMG was the best.

So Battlefield is now like Call of Duty where everyone says, "get the first few games, they are the best". I don't remember people hating on the newer Battlefield games this much. It's ridiculous. It's like as soon as something gets popular it's shit.

I'm not saying BC2 is bad, I'm saying if he thinks that BC2 sucks he should at least play Battlefield 2 and stop trying to judge an entire series off one game.

Can you get a super-satisfying Tactical Nuke and blow the whole fucking map to smithereens in mere seconds in Battlefield? Didn't think so.

it only kills everyone, no destruction, you can even see afterwards and all buildings are still as whole as they where before, are you fucking retarded? Bf3 will own.

That's nice, but most of the people arguing (not fighting) enjoy both games. There's nothing wrong with being a fanboy, it's pretty sad when people think that just because someone is a fanboy they don't like anything else.

Actually, a fanboy IS someone who only likes one game/series/franchise/ETC. Otherwise, the term is simply "Fan".

Yeah, someone devoted to something. Still doesn't mean they can't like something else. Fanboys don't only like one game and nothing else.

I'm an Epic fanboy, I play lots of games that aren't UT or Gears.

Then what would you say differentiates you from someone who is simply an Epic "Fan"?

Even if they make something shit he backs them up. ... Fanboy.

Though I am much more in favour of Battlefield than other FPS multiplayer games, I have to agree with the OP about the unlock system.

It's not the guns that are the main issue, but you start as a medic... without medical equipment. That is bloody annoying when you want to get stuck in healing the FUCK out of people.

EAT PEACE!
