So SP campaign on BF3 is not worth purchasing the game for? I'm enjoying Rage now so I'm in no rush to get BF and might just wait for MW3.
FWIW, I loved BC2 much more than any MW SP campaign.

Yeah, I've leveled up everything at a stead rate.... except for jets.
It's just hard to kill anything with those main guns. The three different people locking on to you at once doesn't help either.

If you guys need help practicing flying try searching for "flight" on the server list. There are a lot of flight school servers up. A good server just to practice combat is "The beaver lodge". They usually only have about 6 people on at one time.

You know, the single player seems like "been there, done that," but the thing that really stands out to me is the voice acting. Something about it just sounds really natural and good, where most games come off as forced and scripted

Yeah, the voice acting is rather good. Their faces look very realistic as well. Some of their reactions are a little off though, it's like they don't move their eyebrows enough or something.

Goodbye.
My choppers and tanks are insanely awesome. Only thing that sucks is when I get in a chopper and someone else is piloting it......horribly.
I love the directional sound......except the few random times when the sound glitches out and I suddenly think I'm deaf because I can't hear anything but silence.

Man yesterday there was a level 35 guy. He had an blackbird helicopter on the norshar(?) canals.
Freaking had heat seekers, anti tank missiles and a flares on his chopper. Anyways everytime I would shoot him with a stinger, he'd switch from being the pilot to another seat and repair his helicopter mid flight and then switch back to being a pilot

ROFL that is some badassness right there, being able to concentrate that way.
Hmm.... that gives me a good tactic for the future. Only problem with that is some random noob will prob spawn into your driver seat while you are repairing and then crash you both
My choppers have heat seekers. They are great, but suck when jets come and kill you off cause you are stationary trying to lock on.

Anyways yes you can spawn into jets and helicopters (if they are landed and unused). You can spawn into active helicopters, tanks and Armoured cars if you're in a squad and someone in your squad is in that vehicle.
If you're in a vehicle others in your squad can spawn in the same vehicle if there is room.
So if you're not in a squad you dont have to worry about others hijacking your vehicle.

Honestly srika I never see you play team death match or domination in any of the COD games just FFA, so I don't really see this game as your type

Definitely better looking, but not as good looking as the game play videos.

I think I'm going to give up using squad respawn in urban maps, probably about 60% of my deaths in Metro or Grand Bazaar are from spawning into a rocket or hail of bullets. I've spawned in the middle of burst of machine gun bullets and was dead before I could even move 
.
And somehow my guns came back today... they were totally gone yesterday but now it works?

I played a couple of hours at a buddy's house on his laptop and we both had a lot of issues, mostly connection/server related. His internet is stupid fast even with 2-3 computers on the network, but we kept getting disconnected while attempting to join servers. Maybe cause he kept joining servers that were almost full......
Had zero issues in co-op. Fun but frustrating overall, I have to get out of the whole lone wolf mentality that COD encourages sometimes. And yeah, spawning near teammates = suicide... a couple of times I've died before I even saw the gun appear in my soldier's hands it seems. The graphics look amazing, the maps are huge and amazingly detailed. Installing on my computer now
I'm on PC btw. Origin = saltonasnail

I got several kicked by admin messages when playing on a few servers due to this problem as well.
on another note, i still get BF3 crashes on initial launch. I try joining again and it starts. Game's still pretty buggy but it's fun I guess.
