Battlefield Tri-hard

Those game modes aren't what Battlefield is about.

People who play those modes primarily might as well just go play CoD.

Wow I actually pretty much agree with Freelancer this time. Yeah you can play Battlefield however you want, but it seems like with some of these other game modes Dice is just trying too hard to be like CoD. Battlefield's gameplay just isn't geared toward twitch-shooting. The quintessential Battlefield experience is on the big maps with vehicles. I REALLY wish we had the commander rank because coordination is awful. You all already knew this though.

Totally different play style. While they're not classic battlefield , still not the same as playing cod.

Been playing scavenger. Fun as fuck. And fuck the crossbow. It sucks. Too accurate to hit anything, but when you do with the normal bolt below 50m, it drops dead instantly. Still, fuck it because it's so incredibly hard to hit anything with it.

Played some Aftermath last night. I could count the number of polygons in some of the rubble piles on one hand, driving the rhino(?) while being in the view of the gunner's seat is asinine and disorienting. I also noticed a lot of places that had plenty of verticality that could've been taken advantage of, but instead were seemingly forgotten. The big cracks and fissures in the streets are just death traps for those dumb enough to hang out there. But I 'm only on begining to play it so maybe I'll like it better later. As far as first impressions, some aspects of the maps are kind of a let down.

The difference is that It offers them all, instead of just one specific. Also, despite the flaws that BF3 has, it plays those game modes a hell of a lot better than COD does.

As much as I agree about what Battlefield does best being the large conquest gametypes, saying that it shouldn't do them because its not normally what Battlefield does isn't really right tbh.

It takes a bit to get used to it. Its definitely a risk/reward type thing. It's much more fun once you get the High Explosive and Stabilized bolts. The HE drops like crazy, but can actually do some serious damage to vehicles. The stabilized bolt is fun to use against other snipers, just because they won't see it coming.

I know I brought this up before, but I think I'm just gonna go ahead and make an Xbox Modacity platoon. At best, it might bring some more members to a slowly decaying community. At worst, I'll be the only member. I'll "screen" everyone who applies to join to see if they play like dicks or not. What do you guys think?
