The end of BF3???

It's going backward and they also are constantly taking it down during Asia pacific peak times this game is down more times than its up

lol I'm so glad I didn't waste $60 on this game. I tried the singleplayer (thinking that SP would be similar to BF2 and not BC2), and I didn't like it. BF3 can gtfo.

Just get bfbc2 cost $20,has good graphics and better then bf3. I haven't seen a hack yet on it but i'm sure if there is which most likely. But it will defiantly have less then bf3

Anti Cheat mechanisms like PB, and VAC etc are only effective to a minority of cheats.

And sometimes, PB can be problematic for legitimate users, too. (and I mean, truly legitimate, users)

Not the End

Hackers are always the problem.

A great advice for Dice is to hire a hacker :) and let him take out of this game-destroyer.

PS: never see a hacker in BF3 in-game (well Urban terror) a free game, 40 50 hackers a day on servers.

Yeah sort of like how Microsoft would hire the people who were able to break into their system and hire them and have them patch up their system. Now they get payed very well

And herein lies the problem with competitive games, where you have levels, power ups, earn weapons, unlock classes, etc and publish stats for the world to see. People are going to take advantage of it and cheat.

Although, I'm unsure where the fun is in cheating. It must be more about making the others mad than the actual gameplay.

Therein lies the problem IMHO, the need to keep the new gen entertain with BS like power ups is what is destroying the FPS games.

It is a catch 22 and they are feeling the hit right now of their own creation.

I am not an Online gamer but it is the first thing I read in all the forums I visit and it hurts what I like as well (Solo Campaign) because they are now making those games shorter and shorter with each new installment and so easy you can finish it in a couple of hours... I refuse to pay 60 cheeseburgers for it.

Same here. I wanted BF3's singleplayer to be like BF2 and it wasn't. Pissed me off, so I quit playing. I'm not really a multiplayer person. I haven't bought any of EA's stuff for at least 3 years now.

Pretty much almost everyone I know bought bf3 for the mp and could care less for the sp... Most people buy it for the MP so less focus is on sp.

Yeah, that's pretty much true. But I'm just not really any good with PvP in first person shooters, so I mostly go for the singleplayer portion, but EA doesn't really care much about their singleplayer modes, which in my opinion, is totally lame, and the reason why I quit buying their crap.
