Single Player!

As for Gamestop...in my 'hood there probably won't be a line. :)

Good idea. Day 1 - SP, Day 2- MP :rockout:


Lucky you. Where I live, everytime a big game comes out there are always a sh!t load of kids waiting in lines that wrap around the buildings. Too much man... too much too much.:slap:

Single player and co-op!

anyone know how many players cab be in co-op at the same time? I think 4 would be sick and it's a great way to practice spacial awareness/team awareness.... which many people lack.

Co-op is two player only, connected via the internet. (two copies of the game running)

Yeah...you wouldn't really want to live around here. Unless you really like tacos and concrete.

Who knows there will likely be some people there mostly there for console versions-it is the middle of the big city- but I'm definitely not expecting a line.

Crap. But still better than not having it at all.

Am I the only one that is a little pestimistic, as where in the final release date either two things are going to happen?

1. Multiplayer will be impossible to play due to server overloads or will have the same ill fate that BFBC2 multiplayer had on launch

2. There will be a GPU error with Crossfire/SLi's on launch due to driver issues.

I know there is a new hotfix from ATI, but only time will tell

Eligible for preload? no email received? whats this all about MT:confused: kinda worries me because I have never used this Steam like Origin thing.

I don't know why MT Alex is so stressed about the pre-load, it's not like he will be able to play it as soon as the download is complete. Plenty of time to work out any issues between the 21st and the 25th.

The stress mostly derives from the fact that there seems to be a disconnect between my Origin account and my email. I have never received a single email from them. I had to go to live chat and get my early beta key, I never received any survey info after the alpha, and I never received any of the post alpha promos. The ding dongs at EA/Origin assure me that things are fine, but still no preload email, and at this rate I'm sure I'm going to have to mess around getting my product code on launch day. Good luck getting live chat then.

ditto that.

#1 is likely, may have to resort to single player for a day.

#2 won't happen. with special drivers specifically for BF3, you don't have much to worry about (they already tested on round of drivers on the bbeta)


jury is still out on the bike, but it's looking like insurance is gonna total it. in all likelyhood I will keep riding it (still mechanically sound) and turn it into either a track bike or a streetfighter. (or both) but it also means that I will be bike shopping this winter.

long story short, I will probably have money to contribute for a server, but only after I get my deductible paid.

Wow, that just totally blows away all the MW3 stuff i've seen so far. Way to go again Dice, makes me want to actually play the single player. Maybe best idea on first day to play the SP, let the craziness get settled out online.
