thisI really don't care and I'm not going to participate in any retarded boycott. I plan to pre-order the game and it's going to be awesome.
Reward? My ass.Q: Why do you offer pre-order bonus items?
A: Because we believe in rewarding our core fanbase with special offers -- such as giving them the Back to Karkand expansion pack at no extra charge.
Actually there's a Q&A session they did showing slight footage of a jet over burning oilfields is actually an MP map and it's big: http://live-event.ea.com/e3/chat/battlefield (around the 8:08 mark). So I wouldn't write it off just yet.I am actually more disappointed with the game its self, if you search up Youtube and look at the footage of people playing it on the test booths you might see what I mean. On the grand scale of things, I personally don't like the maps that are close quarters like the metro/subway map. This to me is not in line with its predecessor Battlefield 2.
LOL I completely agree, sometimes the server browser still doesn't work in Bad Company 2. And what's more upsetting, they NEVER EVER took the time to fix the voip, like honestly?My biggest concern over the game isn't exclusives, it's the crap that plagued every single other Battlefield release:
- buggy lagfest for first 6 months - 1 year
- minimal and/or nonfunctional server browser for first 6 months - 1 year
Yeah, they say that they want to reward the customers who pre-ordered. But if the game ships broke with lag or bug infested, there will be a lot of pissed off gamers. So for their sake, I hope they ship the game as polished as possible(However it seems so unlikely for game developers these days unless you're Blizzard or Valve) if they are trying to market this whole pre-ordering shtick.LOL I completely agree, sometimes the server browser still doesn't work in Bad Company 2.

Yup, I'm staying away from BF3 for a few patches. If BC2 was any indication, BF3 will be nearly unplayable (or at least a pain in the ass) for the first month or so.My biggest concern over the game isn't exclusives, it's the crap that plagued every single other Battlefield release:
- buggy lagfest for first 6 months - 1 year

Agreed. I remember being so frustrated with BF2 when I was playing it because of how buggy it was. It was a shame because when it worked properly I had a blast.My biggest concern over the game isn't exclusives, it's the crap that plagued every single other Battlefield release:

what do you mean finally?Oh god, EA finally got to Battlefield too![]()
but yet you guys keep eating it up version after version.Yeah, they say that they want to reward the customers who pre-ordered.
