    I just rounded 100. Not saying that is a good thing, cause, my USC application is still uncompleted on my desktop....

    How many hours have you all played/wasted?

    about 16-18, the game really bores me, technically great, but after the first week or so I've only played it thrice.

    I pre-ordered it and only put in like 8 to 10 hours. I just can't enjoy this game. I realized that all I wanted this game to be was BF2 so I re-installed BF2 and played that.

    I think I played around 75 hours in the first two weeks, but I haven't really played since November 8th.

    200+ hours. Most of which happend before Skyrim hit. I do play regularly though. I'm just not too enamored with certain particulars of BF3's design. I much preferred the more empowering design of the Bad Company games. And I downright hate some aspects, such as extremely shitty visibility, bad scoring, lock-on weapons and mortars.

    All of which makes me enjoy and play BF3 less than other recent Battlefield iterations. My hopes for BF3 rest on DICE's 'Aggressive DLC Plans'. Something along the lines of BF:BC 2 Vietnam would be much appreciated. Stripping out the customization overkill and modern gadgets and lock-on weaponry in favor of iron sights, straightforward balancing and hopefully a kick-ass on-board soundtrack. There's speculation for a BF 2143 expansion. Never played BF 2142, but it certainly would give them the freedom create a more gamey and fun experience.

    That said, it's quite unbelievable when I overcome all the hate I harbour against much of its design.

    30-32 hours up till now. I've had too many games to toy with in between. My friends and I also jumped onto MW3, as we did with every CoD itterations until now. But of course, we realized Mw3 wasn't good at all. and went back to BF3.

    Right over 3 days on my ps3, so around 73 hours, give or take. Ive loved every minute of it. It keeps becoming the game I go back to. Even after my hiatuses for Skyrim and Dark Souls, I keep coming back.

    Uhh, about 3.

    I've been trying to figure out if I want to play on PC or PS3. I own both copies, but it's not worth it playing on super low settings on my PC so I'm going to stick to PS3 until I have the opportunity to build a gaming rig.

    You should really finish your USC app, don't most schools have their regular decision deadlines in like January/very early February?

    True that. I've put 92 hours into the game on the PS3 (& another 9 hours on Xbox), and despite the laundry list of gripes I have about the game's design and balance, at the end of the day, I keep coming back to it because dammit if it isn't fun as hell.

    That said, I doubt I'll hit the 500 hours I put into BFBC2. I dunno, hopefully there will be some decent DLC that will keep me coming back.

    136 hours. I still feel like I'm terrible at it. Took me the better part of two years to get 300 hours in BC2 but by the end I felt like I could do well most times.

    68 hours with almost all of that time as assault but I am getting a little bored of it now. I tried some of the other classes but "eh", traditional sniping is really dull and un fun. All people do is shoot at other snipers and they changed the Recon load out so it's not as fun or good to play as an assault-recon. I actually want to good back to playing 2142 for some reason I don't know why.
