LOL! Patrick Bach recently gave an interview in which he proudly declared they "nailed" BF3. Over on EA UK, there was a thread denouncing this, and a poll thread, the thread disappeared and the poll thread just got locked after the poll had reached 363 votes for "No, they screwed it, not nailed it", and 32 votes for "Yes, it is a true successor to BF2". Nice censorship, EA.
If you read the interview, DICE said that they nailed in regard to what they were trying to achieve--marrying tactical gameplay with accessibility, which I agree, they did achieve that. I did not see the poll posted on the forums, but I'd imagine it's full of whiny trolls crying about how it's nothing like BF2 blah blah, as expected because the interweb is full of them. People who enjoys the game are too busy playing it to get on the forums and cry.
I do agree BF3 has some pretty shitty implementations, but the game is pretty damn good and fun in everything else that the good really outshines the bad. The game itself is light years beyond any other competitive shooters that are out there right now.
For me personally, one of the things that keep me coming back to the game is the random cinematic experience that I encounter: Running down a street and an RPG whooshing by my head in full surround sound and exploding on the building behind me, ears still ringing as I'm screaming "HOLY SHIT" to myself. Or being chased by a helicopter and I'm sprinting for my life trying to get inside a building just so I can escape the hail of bullets behind my feet. I'm sorry but shit like that is just too fucking cool to make this game boring.
