theres a cooldown, dont spam spot when youre not looking at something and you wont waste it.

@SpaceInsomniac: Maybe i was just being a facetious prick...oh wait.

Don't destroy vehicles if you can avoid it. Once you've disabled it (you will be informed, with +100 points to boot) try and kill the prey that jumps out of his metal coffin. Jump out of your own metal coffin, preferably handing it over to a team mate, repair the other vehicle, then jolly rodger that shit. After all, 2 tanks are better than 1 especially if 1 of them isn't yours.

Minimap use. I find myself constantly flicking my eyes down and left when i enter an area with high resistance, no resistance or an area with several known camping spots (capture points come to mind). This will keep you aware of enemy positions pretty much constantly and will prevent you getting caught in crossfire.

@awe_stuck: I didn't include WaW (awesome as it was) as that would make 5, and it isn't modern.

@MildMolasses: Black ops is clearly a MW game. Just because it isn't named thusly doesn't mean it isnt.

You're 40 years old. You know better.

Battlefield has been going for 9 years and technically they're only up to the 3rd game.

Modern Warfare (not CoD as a whole) has only been around for 4 years and are already up to the 4th game. It will not last forever and you know this, but Battlefield will continue to exist for several more years.

When you buy into a franchise, that is what you are getting. Iterations of the same core idea and formulae, expecting revolutionary changes with every iteration is childish and will never happen of any title regardless of era.

Competing with MW3 is like competing with WoW at this stage, it's completely pointless so all we can do is wait out till it dies (Activision seems to have this effect on beloved franchises). MW has been on the decline since the first game but Battlefield has only gotten better since the first.

Why do you need Battlefield to make more money than a different game, when they still make plenty of sales and continue to provide you with what you want? i.e. More Battlefield.

You say Battlefield will never be bigger than MW, in that you are wrong. For a good 5 years prior to that piece of shit ever existing Battlefield was the best (and still is) FPS had to offer.

You say you're a big fan of BF, then you should know that every single release has been completely fucked upon release. Battlefield didn't even have a campaign until BF2 so i fail to see why you're complaining about it when it can be ignored completely.

You sir, as a true Battlefielder, rob yourself of pride. EA hardly had a hand in it.

@Tennmuerti: never tried 2, thanks for the reccomendation. I'll see if i can find it!

Disciples 3 is the shiznits. It's new enough and is graphically superior even to HoMM6. It's an Akella (russian) game however so it can be a bit buggy at times.

Games of this genre are all pretty much identical anyway so holding out for something new is kinda worthless. Heroes of Might and Magic, Disciples 3, Kings Bounty. All pretty much identical other than art direction and some fine details, and wether the grid is square or hex based.

I'd highly reccomend Kameo. How would getting a launch title make you feel like a cheapwad, she's 11, if she doesn't know who batman is she's not gna be able to tell what year a game came out especially if its good. It is still a videogame and who knows, Kameo might become to her what Mario is to a lot of us.

@TaliciaDragonsong: You know theres more new releases soon right?
