I for one would straight up murder the DICE people if they change the game forever... 
i want a BF2-like BF3... no fucking awards and shit 
 
Edit: when i say Awards and Unlocks and Perks, i mean the huge list of those things, which simply become the goal to achieve for players, rather than to win the match itself. 
Yes, Battlefield 2 did have ribbons and medals, but it wasnt as essential for the gameplay as BC2 has it today.

I want the only awards you get to be for coming first, second  or third overall. Anything else should be presented on a scoreboard at the end of a game. 
 
Weapon unlocks like the old system, where you can get the first unlock to a kit whenever you want, then continue branching down that kit or start down another.
 
Battlefield is not call of duty. I hope they don't mess this up

Correct me if im wrong, but Battlefield 2 had weapon unlocking.

" Correct me if im wrong, but Battlefield 2 had weapon unlocking. "

I don't really care either way. It didn't take too long to unlock everything in bc2, so it wasn't a big deal. I just want to see good shooting, good opportunities for squad tactics, and great maps.

bump

I want BF2 with better graphics. 
 
lul

Weapon unlocks are okay I suppose, as long as it's not "HIGH LVL WEP=BEST WEP" they managed it fine in BC2, but I really dislike perks.

Poll seems pretty biased.
 
Of course I want it to be kit based and 64 players.

BF2 had weapon unlocks and XP and shit already, so I don't really care what they do with that side of it.  
 
Hopefully they'll keep the destructible environments of BC2, but with BF2's scale (huge maps, jets, etc.).  If they could ditch the whack-a-mole gameplay of BF2, that'd be great too.

Didn't BF2 have awards also? Like emblems, ribbons and badges and stuff?

I want Battlefield 3 to be Battlefield 2 with better balance, graphics, and shooting mechanics. I felt like I was shooting pea shooters in Battlefield 2.

Yeah i kinda enjoy that, but whatever they think works yinno, 

I never played Battlefield 2, due to the fact I'm not a PC player. However, I played Battlefield 2: Modern Combat, which seems to be the same thing at a glance, albeit for console. I like the idea of having the awards that were present in Bad Company 2. Awards made doing things more fun, and it allowed you to feel that you had accomplished something. I like the way that DICE took out one of the classes and streamlined them in Bad Company 2 from the original Bad Company. Giving too many classes bogs the whole experience down, and you wind up playing as a character who is good in only some situations, and will lose out in many others. At least with the smaller number of classes, dying is likely enough, but you can defend yourself a little. I'm not too fussy regardless, because i simply look forward to playing Battlefield 3, if it releases on console. Bigger maps would be nice, though it's unlikely to happen on a console version of the game seeing as people cannot maintain their own dedicated servers for it... though it would be sweet if they could.

I really don't want BF to jump on the "Modern Warfare" bandwagon. I'd rather DICE do what they do best, and not copy someone else's ideas. BF2 is still the greatest Battlefield game to me, and I don't want the series to turn into Modern Warfare with 32 people and vehicles.

I just remember loving BF2's system like crazy, but I think it was because it was one of the first instances of Modern Warfare's type of system.

no perks pls.
 
 
and there were awards and weapon unlocks in bf2.

64 players or more. no perks. more vehicles and maps supporting them at their fullest. building damage if possible. none of this over powered higher level player weapons shit. gun attachments to modify your weapon. better voice codecs. realistic hit detection.. i mean few bullets to bring down a target and realistic wounding. good play mode variety especially if they can think of a way to convert a titan type mode into it. maybe make it titan mode but using air craft carriers or something. realistic weather effects and day/night cycles. no spamming airstrikes via snipers. uavs and such are cool but should be called in by squad/commanders (only if available) not just any regular soldier and with that well defined leadership structure and incentives for following orders. if ships are present like other bf games make sure the calling in artillery support requires someone on the ship to fire the salvos, not just a called in thing that happens perfectly every time because it is a fixed type event. saime goes for air support. call for air support and someone flying an aircraft must respond for it to happen. i want realism above all else.  
 
 
this is my wish list =)

I can't stand perks...

What are you going on about?

Unlocks and perks were in BF games, long before MW came out. BF2 had weapon unlocks badges and ribbons long before MW came along. 
 
2142 had what were essentially "perks" a year before MW was released. Eg.. Sprint, advanced stealth, sniper beacon and more.
 
I want BF3 to be BF2 evolved. The only thing new MW brought to the table, was killstreaks and even then BF already had a commander who could call in artillary strikes and UAV support.

• You had 6-7 kits, and you could only unlock one alternative gun. that was it. 
•  The awards: they were just a part of the player's "profile" and rank. you gather them as you go, but they werent so essential in the gameplay that they'd distract you from the actual match. People in these new games dont want to win the round, they want to unlock the fuckton of stuff and get perks and dogtags... they dont seem to want to play the game right and win it. 

I want it to be a good mix of what unlocking and leveling was in BF2142 and is now in BC2. I really enjoyed it in BF2142, yet right now it would be  bit underwhelming, because you need more stuff to unlock, so a mix.

All I want is the Dogtags system, looking at the hundreds of dogtags ive gotten from knifing fools makes me happy. =)
 
And maybe an ACOG scope.......

Never played BC2, but I like the insignia's and pins in Battlefield: Bad Company 2. Get rid of the perk system, and keep the weapon unlocking.
