play rush or domination then tell me how you feel.
30+ kills is plausible in either gametype. i've gotten 100+ in games of TDM and domination in bf3

Well there's a lot that goes into consideration when comparing the two. Bf4 is a big team game with much larger maps and long sightlines so it caters towards a more slow paced gameplay, with more strategy.

Cod on the other hand, has much smaller maps, and more close quarters scenarios, which leads to a much faster paced game.

Both have different things going for them, in terms of gameplay, and have a completely different feel.

Graphics wise, there's no doubt that bf4 is superior, and has a much more fluid feel to it. The guns look better, sound better, and the details are all there in the environment. However, currently, bf4's server are so trash and the game is so buggy, each actually got sued because of it. Its an unfinished game, despite how good it may look.

Cod on the other thing has another thing ggoing for it. The servers make the game playable, and there's not too many bugs. However the game falls way behind in terms of graphics, and specs. The game runs on an outdated engine (look it up) and can't support the incredible detail that battlefield can. Ghosts is the same shit that cod was the last 5 times, and in all honesty, they didn't add anything to spice up the game, or bring any flair.they used a ducking dog as a focal point in the game, and that's what they excpected would sell them copies. Cod is a fun fast paced game, no doubt, but infinity ward are a bunch of fucking morons. Cod has turned into a really bad franchise, and is just being milked hard now.

Tldr: bf4 is buggy as fuck, ghosts is the same shit as before, and nothing special. Both are fun in their own way. Both suck big dick in their own way. Wait for titan fall.



And IMO bf4 is the better game despite the bugs

Easily battlefield. shooters should actually be somewhat challenging, not some 12 year old no-scope fest. battlefield is more of a squad based rather than a lone wolf type of shooter. you get way more points too if you roll with a squad. not to mention the frostbite engine is great. BF's got actual bullet drop so sniping dudes actually takes some skill.

I like bf3 because gameplay is consistent, and there is actually a logical reason behind being outgunned/dying. I don't scream "FUCKING BULLSHIT" when I die in battlefield. I can see why I was killed.

I like cod. But I think it's easy and I consistently get 40-50 kills/game. Bf is harder. Well I suck at it at least. I'm just not used to it and don't know the maps

My Buddy plays it, graphics are amazing, but I've heard you can walk a lot if you miss a convoy or some shit.

and OP, it depends on if you're on console or not, If you're playing on a console, you'll have no issue running ghosts as the main shit complains about it deal with stuff that doesn't matter to consoles, like having framerate above 30 fps.

Most people I know love Battlefield over COD, or like playing Arma 3, but then most of my gamer friends are on PC.

bf4.... the realistic ballistics and damage according to caliber/velocity etc, team play, tons of vehicles, etc etc. I prefer that style of gameplay over CoD

BF4!
You can enjoy the logic and realism of conquest and still play TDM but not have ass hats run up behind you all the time and do stupid shit. Fuck COD.
Put BO:II in a case 6 months ago and haven't looked back with BF3 and BF4.
UPDATES WILL BE SICK
Premium is the only way to go!

Arma 3 caters to a very different type of shooter group....a lot of the missions are slow paced and rely on communication and teamwork in comparison to say CoD that relies heavily on quick aiming. Either way, if you're thinking about buying it, I'd recommend first knowing how well your computer will handle multiplayer performance before buying it. Arma 3 is EXTREMELY inconsistent with different CPU/GPU performance in multiplayer

Also, with that being said, as an avid gamer that has over 13 years under his belt, I think Arma 3 is a fantastic game; in fact, its one of my favorite games. IMO, its where most shooters should be at this point: an open world, high strategy, mission based game.

not completely sure about that as I've never ran it personally and if i recall correctly he has a pretty beefy rig.

You'll probably be able to run it but im not sure of what quality, most likely won't be terrible.

big fan of bf4 multiplay, but i hate the blue screen of death that errors you out into the home screen. the cod campaign was actually pretty sick though. good missions, good story. bf4 campaign is dull.

overall bf4 wins for sure as im not a fan of the quick run and gun spazzy style of gameplay that cod offers. with bf4 the better you are with a team, the more strategic you play, the better you do. for me, it's a no-brainer. just depends on what you like, i guess. though in cod you can get away with spraying and doing fairly well. sadly, bf4 can be a little more frustrating because with the recoil and long distances your typically engaging at, the guy with the better aim is going to win.

COD sales have been abysmal compared to previous versions. Thank god people are finally realizing its the same shit over and over........just a half decade after the rest of the real gaming community, haha.

Ofc who am I to talk, I still play Quake Live religiously (a 13 yr old game, basically)

O wait............haha.

i feel as though they focused 100x more on multiplayer and the campaign is just training you up to that (although no flying mission, sad danny)



us navy attacked off coast of china, you are on survivng ship, each level is part of the escape (clearing a path, defending from boarding etc)

it'll come eventually, battlefield needs to be the one to do WW2 again. They can make it an insane game if they spend a lot of time really re working it and making sure the game is historically accurate. If it's more open world too, think of how awesome that would be.

Fuck I just want a WW2 game like Forgotten Hope for the Xbox so bad...it needs to happen!
