I will buy bf3 in the next few weeks and see how it compares, a friend of mine loves it. Black ops has good points and not so. Unfortunately camping is part of any games like these especially when people trying to get their big killstreaks. Only bad thing about mw2 and the tax nuke. Unfortunately I am not good enough to get one and can't camp so run around like a headless chicken. I like black ops as a game, shame it doesn't have the guns of mw2/3?

Theres plenty of Campers on BF3 too, usually with sniper rifles, i'd say it's probably worse than MW3 for that actually. Difference is though you can drive tanks then their sniper rifles are useless!

But camping is part of Battlefield as it should be team work and the snipers should spot for the normal infantry.

Jamescsti

same could be said for any shooter really in that case.

Love it on COD when people are crying down their headsets about campers - makes me do it all the more. Pissed one lad off so much in one game he kept coming to find me and i took him out 17 times

Jamescsti

i do the same sometimes. hide in a corner kill someone then move corners and do the same when they come for me. that said i do find camping boring

I'm finding MW3 online quite hard at the moment. I was fairly decent on Mw2 and could almost guarantee a top 3 finish but I'm proper getting my **** kicked at the moment. Its frustrating as hell. I'm just hoping it gets better.

I see the one shot w4nkers with their quick scoping are still about though. That really p*sses me off because on the replay their shots are nowhere f*cking near me.

Its a lot harder to just run & gun in BF3 as you will get taken down. Its far more tactical in that regard as I guess there is a lot more open space with huge maps so being stealthy pays dividends.

There are plenty of noobs and plenty who go solo but you can choose to be in a squad and choose which one you join. Once you rank up your perks can be shared across the squad which is a great incentive and seems to make people play more as a team than you ever do in MW.

Sniping can be vital in a game as long as not the entire team do it. And as said before its useless against most vehicles and aircraft (I say most as check out the clip I put on the BF3 thread here of a chap taking a Scout Chopper pilot out with a long range headshot).

The only time camping is bad is when someone is not helping the team reach its objective. Ive lost track the number of times Ive received PM's on MW2 calling me a camping ****. If your that dumb enough to come into the same area 5 times and get shot then you deserve what you get. I take is a compliment as they are only pissed off your better than them!

Not really becuase you can actually have a 'spot' button in BF that highlights the enemy you don't have that in MW all you can do is tell people where the enemy are or moving to.
The worst problem though is when the snipers in BF don't actually spot targets or don't move up when the target (if playing Rush) has been destroyed.

camping ftw!

Thats one of the niggles though as on PS3 the spot (select on controller) button doesnt always work. Very hit & miss. You also use it to ask for ammo & medi packs and again its hit & miss whether it works (a lot more miss than hit too).

Possibly a bug but you do know you have a few spot attempts then it has to recharge.
What is annoying is when you do ask for the ammo/health most ******* just run off
I've found that using the defibrillators area bit hit and miss which is bloody annoying

I camp on cod sometime, but when i get bored i just run and gun to be honest. But all depends on what game mode im playing, i like playing headquaters always have done since modern warefare 2.

Iv only just started play mw3 online, and i must say im quite happy, even tho it does just seem like mw2 has just had a big update, and that sometimes the servers can be a pain in the **** to connect to.

P1Fanatic

Seems to be a bug as lots talking about it on Battlelog Forums? Where did you read the bit about spotting recharging? Most of the tips given on jet flying say just spam the spot button to help you identify enemy targets as not easy at high speed & altitude. Even if your right I can be looking at a tank and it just wont pickup whether it be the first push of the button or the 3rd.

Last night I was playing TDM (is good if you dont want to get stuck into an epic 30 min + battle) and usually play as assault so I can use my own medipacks for quick recovery time. Was running low on ammo and threw a medipack at a guy playing support and he threw me some ammo. Couldnt believe it. Normally you jump up & down, knife them, shoot them, flash your laser / flashlight in their face and still no ammo. I just dont get how stupid people are as its easy points for them.

Btw whats your Battlelog ID as dont think I saw it on the BF3 thread?

I've stopped Playing mw3 it's crap! I've returned back to BF3

Im enjoying MW3 - I heard all sorts of storys "the maps are small" "controlls have changed" err no map size is fine controls are the same

Agree with the snipers no scope - I get hit every time

@P1Fanatic
I'm on the 360
Tag is blackwrx93 and the spotting recharge system I think came into Bad Company 1 (this was my first Battlefield game) although ,as you say,it can be quite hit and miss.

P1Fanatic

Shame. Have requested to add you on Battlelog anyway. I got my 2nd Service Star for Engineer last night and was thinking it was mucho points but alas it was only 10k same as for 1st Service Star.

Found a few glitchers hiding under the map on outpost last night. Lets hope they sort this quickly, not like the rock glitch on mw2.

O only wish I could play. It's on my Xmas list and my gf says I am not allowed to buy anything that's on my list. Made a big boo boo there.
