PS3 online gaming can be a wasteland at times.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

Pretty excited for it. Last BF game I played was BF2. This will also be the shooter that tides me over on my new 360 until Halo:ODST comes out.

 

[Rorschach]

I look forward to playing this watered down experience with you console plebs.

 

[cresto]

i lol'd

can't wait for this for the 360. GT: FREIGHT TRAIN68

pretty sure PS3 will have a hell of a time getting the 43 million kills necessary. 360 will probably have it fairly quickly, couple months i bet.

love love love the BF series even though its so simple

 

[HoTHiTTeR]

Took Wednesday off. If XBL fucks me over and doesn't have this ready @ 2am pst heads will roll. :lol

 

[BravoSuperStar]

i'll get it, but I'm still bitter that coral sea is planes only and the anemic 24 player count.

 

[darkressurection]

Oh man, I'm all over this. I hope the there's a big crowd on the PS3.

Getting into a Warhawk game is still easy as pie. As long as the game is good, I am sure there won't be an issue.

I'm cool with 24 players. I don't really look into nitpicking useless shit like player count, but I'm not a fan of Coral Sea either. Hoping for a map pack in the future.

Although if BF1943 just came with Wake Island, I'd have no problem.

 

[Automatisch]

I'm down.

Im sure it'll happen.

Oh yes and XBL: Gnarkill Bill

Eh well going from 64 players down to 24 is something worth bitching about, imo. but at least it's not 16...glass half full and all that. =)

Either way, as long as we don't find out it's a pile of shit between now and release I'll be buying it.

Worry not, I know plenty of people getting it on PS3. See you online.

 

[shintoki]

43million kills aren't going to be months...it's going to be weeks :lol

 

[Daigoro]

oh shit, forgot about this one.

1200 pts huh? twist my arm.

ok bought.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Finally, a few more days, only problem is I'm going to cedar point on wednesday when it comes out, I'll just have to play it later at night then.

 

[radrelic]

[ILOVEASIANS]

Never played a Battlefield game before but I'll definitely be checking this out. Need something new to get my multiplayer fix with.

Same here. I've been wanting to play a WW2 shooter online but Call of duty isn't my thing.

 

[ILOVEASIANS]

Yeah, I'm the opposite. I loved Call of Duty 4 and played a ton online. I just need something fresh at this point.

 

[ToyMachine228]

Will be getting the 360 version. My tag is RyoGCH.

 

[GodofWine]

Will get it on PS3 as soon as my new 320gb hard drive shows up!!

I think you are talking about such famous titles from PSN like Snakeball, super duper stupid cars, elephunk and high stakes poker....cause for all the usual games people play online there are more than plenty of folks playing.

See you on Midway, PSN - SKIGAZZI

 

[StriKeVillain]

So bought. I rented Bad Company in preparation.

I'll add a couple of XBL gamers in this thread. Gamertag: Strikevillain

 

[Nakazato]

Bought Psn:FFXI_Isamu

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

Finally and definately!

XBL: Mister Powers

No, sorry.

On that topic, how is the crowd for BC on the PS3 these days? I might give it a go.

 

[scoobs]

Yeah, no. But I wouldn't expect to be able to convince someone such as yourself.

On that topic, how is the crowd for BC on the PS3 these days? I might give it a go.

I play killzone 2 all the time and theres tons of people playing all day long. Of course thats one game...

 

[Sailor]

Day 1 purchase.

My GT is Nice Krispies if anyone would like to add me
Just make sure to put something about GAF in the message or I won't know who you are and deny the friend request lol.

 

[gregor7777]

And new. And hugely marketed. (for sony :lol) And exclusive.

It's the third party stuff that can be troublesome.

Not to start the nonsense, but I can log onto Shadowrun and UT3 on the 360 and easily find enough games. UT3 on the PS3 is a ghost town unfortunately.

Given the user base it's understandable I guess. Still annoying though.

 

[StriKeVillain]

3 clean weeks of BF1943 before MvC2 launches. Summer of Arcade is so sweet this year. Last year it was pretty weak besides Braid and CC.

Wait, there's only 3 classes?

How do we resupply our ammo?

 

[The Faceless Master]

TK has been disabled in BF 1943.


seriously

what the fuck?

 

[Hootie]

Wait, there's only 3 classes?

I may be mistaken but I could've sworn I read somewhere that you'll have infinite ammo

 

[StriKeVillain]

I may be mistaken but I could've sworn I read somewhere that you'll have infinite ammo

You will.

 

[endlessflood]

I may be mistaken but I could've sworn I read somewhere that you'll have infinite ammo

Didn't they say that it was regenerating rather than strictly infinite, i.e. you have to wait a while after using ammo before it comes back, you can't just fire endlessly? I don't know if they stuck with that for the final game though.

Haven't heard them change it.

The AT rifle and Rifle grenades have about 2-3 shots in each “bundle”. You can fire one rocket, reload and then fire another rocket pretty fast. But when your “bundle” is emptied a timer starts ticking, this is the replenish time. The time is being carefully monitored and tweaked under our playtests!

 

[Kibbles]

Damnit, I forgot I still have to pay for XBL Gold... =( Oh well I'll still get this, hopefully I can find a deal on the gold card.

 

[GK86]

Wait, there's only 3 classes?

How do we resupply our ammo?

Infantry, Rifleman, and Scout.

 

[Kibbles]

Since this is being released on the XBLA... there should be a trial version, correct? I'd assume not for this type of game, but all other XBLA games have trial versions.

 

[thegriefer]

Ill get this day one on xbl

 

[SapientWolf]

Since this is being released on the XBLA... there should be a trial version, correct? I'd assume not for this type of game, but all other XBLA games have trial versions.

I don't see how they are going to do a trial for an online only game.

No, we don’t really support any single-player mode. We will have a tutorial sandbox level where we teach the basics of the game and where you can just fool around.

Looks like you can play with yourself. Yay.

 

[endlessflood]

Wait, there's only 3 classes?

In answer to your next question, there is no medic and health regenerates the same as ammo

 

[GK86]

Yes, there will be a trial. Wake island, one hour I think.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Punisher let me down. Definitely buying this for PS3! I love Frostbite engine to hell!

 

[Kibbles]

Yes, there will be a trial. Wake island, one hour I think.

That's pretty cool.

 

[Isurus]

Does anyone know if there are going to be bots in the game like in 1942?

 

[CaptainStrong]

does anyone know how big this game is? file size wise....2-3 gigs??
