I like maths!

Enjoyed BC2 +1
New engine +1
Jam and cheese sandwich i just had +10
My "A" key is broken on my keyboard -1 for strafing left

Ohhh, and +2 for how ridiculous all this is!
Congratulations on contributing to the conversation by simply being condescending. I suppose you've never heard of "hyperbole"? Or, running with a joke?

Speaking of jokes, how humorous it is that the only people seemingly being mean or rude about this whole thing are those defending EA over it. Anyone who says something along the lines of, "This is stupid. Why are they doing this to BF3?" or "I don't want to play this game now", end up getting berated by everyone who doesn't feel the same way.

If that's how the average Battlefield 3 player is going to act, then I'm glad I've lost interest in it. It may be a better game, but I'm willing to bet it's going to be ruined by a quasi-COD type of community. Oh the irony.

Because server browsing in BC2 worked so well (sarcasm). Seriously, see y'all in game.

I think some people just like to find as much to complain about as they can so to ease their conscience when they go and pirate the game anyway.

Apologies for my apathy, but it just seems to be the norm on the internet. Again, the boycott episode of Jimquisition highlights it pretty well, how many people complaining are legit people actually turned off by this system, and how many is for the sake of bitching on the internet.

I used to be like them, bitching and complaining about everything that i didn't like, but then i realised, what does it matter? If something happens that i don't like, i won't buy it. The developer is far better more skilled than me, so if i don't like it i can either go out and make something better, or put up with it.

Not that it matters, people flinging their faeces is pretty much what the internet is about these days, and i honestly do find enjoyment in reading it all. Hell people could have very good points, and indeed you do. I just found it amusing the way you put numerical value into each one.

As for BF3, i will wait till it's out to decide. I havn't played it so have no idea what it will be like, so it would be wrong of me to complain. Hell, i've been avoiding Dragon Age 2 for ages, but i've just played it and personally found it better than the first.

As for me "ruining" the community, i wouldn't worry about that. I only talk to my mates on the xbox, have no intrest in the hate that is spewed out in CoD/Halo.

Who the hell thought this was a good idea? EA probably wanted to make it so you have to see more ads, so they went this route.

Meh, as long as it starts up quickly (devs have repeatedly said that it starts up very quickly), then that's not really a big deal at all.

And I like the idea of a centralised website with everything on it. It's nice when everything's in the same place.

And all of this is COMPLETELY fine if the game actually alt-tabs well (it would be nice to see game devs actually thinking about this for once).

Edit: I am once again sad about the lack of research into this and the incredibly blatant slant in the article. It would be nice if people would actually try to report gaming news honestly instead of reporting it in a way that will cause the most hype and complaining.

(Sorry for the reasonable post, you can all go back to the usual uninformed hatred of everything EA touches. Just pretend like you didn't see this.)

"I'm not buying it so I don't care... Tra la la la la la laaaa...."

That said... Oy. What a foolish way to take a step backwards and insult your clientele, EA.

Or as we say nowadays, "How about that marketing strategy?" )*rimshot*(
