Big discussion as of late between the two, Battlefield is supposedly "better" because of the game engine being more interactive eg blowing walls apart, but MW2 left an itch unscratched.... Which will you guys be looking at?

BF3 for me, having just played the alpha it is very good some balancing issues with with a good team and mix of classes it works well the first map, there is a whole buch of tweak to gameplay mechanics too where you now get more points for suppression fire and bunch of other cool stuff

sprinting may be unrealistic but who in real life in a battle zone only sprints for 30secs

I'm leaning towards Battlefield 3..

I'm going to "demo" these two when they come out (for the single player experience) but I will pay my hard earned money on Battlefield 3 for multiplayer. BF3 will have dedicated server support from the word go and that's the big thing leaning me towards this

DICE have said that BF3's lead platform is the PC then Consoles where as Infinity Ward (Most likely pushed by Activision) will go the other way round (console first, PC second)...also MW3 has no dedicated server support so expect finding local games a bit more difficult (and deal with bad ping rates)

I will more than likely be buying both but no point in saying this is better or that is better blah blah blah

Until you have played both in their finished states it doesnt matter...in the end its all about which one is a fun experience for you and anyone with a narrow mindset will miss out on the fun in the other

BF3, anyday, i cant play COD no more after the whole destruction ability in BFBC2, wish battlefield had zombies tho, zombies go good with anything, especially a cup of tea and a hot cross bun. also this whole 32vs32 on PC will be EPIC, but the poor consoles will only support 12v12 players, haha

going for the one that's not based on Quake 3 games technology.

Hoping that MW3 will be the one that FINALLY kills off a stale cash cow franchise.

Its getting that way isnt it! I remember playing the first CoD on pc when it was up against medal of honor and everyone just blew out how much better it was but apart from going to modern warfare its the same setup ever since then.

I read that they're using a tweaked mw2 engine...

I admit, the single player in MW1 and 2 was cool, and the story interested me.

The multi however, has been exactly the same since COD2.

I dislike intensely how the video game industry has become not only dumbed down console focused, but the whole thing of having to release a franchise update every year at around the same time. How can a quality game be made or innovation had when everything is pandering to a tight schedule and lowest common denominator?!

BTW BLOPS single player sucked because of the ridiculous historical inaccuracies (like having M16's with 30 round mags and fancy scopes in 1960), and the multi was lag central on PC!

BF3 for sure. :thumbsup:

The Call Of Duty series seems to be focused on churning out very similar games on a yearly schedule, without new technology or major changes to the gameplay.

I'm very disappointed about how little the series has progressed since MW1. Call Of Duty was groundbreaking up until that point, i think that point is where consoles became the priority and gameplay started to be dumbed down.

Look at the tech Dice are using these days, the physics are just amazing not to mention the graphics.

Dice are pushing the envelope, trying to make their game the best experience. Whereas Call Of Duty developers seem content to keep churning out mediocre games with old tech and bland gameplay because they still make money.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
