EA delivers dig at Call of Duty franchise

4.2
Electronic Arts has delivered another sly dig on Activision's Call of Duty franchise.

Battlefield 3's beta test press release has given another low blow to their competitor once again as it states: "Go Above and Beyond the Call".

EA's Labels president Frank Gibeau recently said on the shooter's competition this holiday season:

"This Christmas we're definitely going to take market share in the FPS category from those guys. Customers like competition, they like these kind of heavyweight fights so were going for it."

Battlefield 3 is currently scheduled for a release on October 25th in North America and three days later in Europe. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, meanwhile, is currently scheduled for a worldwide release on November.

8th.

iDigsby BF3 looks like it will play like BFBC2 on consoles which SUCKED!. Great "new engine" that still runs at 30FPS dice...


Popular games that run at 30fps on console:
Gta IV
Crysis 2
Halo 3 through reach
All battlefield games
Killzone 2/3
Gears of war 3
Uncharted 3
And a few dozen other games.
You probably didnt know this because you cant tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps. o yeah, I like CoD around just as much as I like battlefield but dude, ur a fanboy.

Dont really know what else to say because I'm tired and I'm going to sleep. If you read this, I will put you to shame tomorrow.


Dude It's very big difference between 30 and 60 fps..

If I had a dollar for every time someone said "Oh my god! it's only 30 FPS!!" (or something along those lines), and had no idea what the real difference is, I'd be a rich mother f**ker. Most console games are 30FPS. And my personal favorite (Halo) is also 30 FPS. And the Halo franchise has done more for the FPS (first person shooter) world than CoD or BF ever will.


agreed with you on Drphil
also BC 2 didn't suck on consoles, I'm deeply sorry that you couldn't quickscope and 360 no scope across the map


play gears of war 3, then go straight to black ops, its such a big difference because of the FPS, everything feels 100x faster. its just unexplainable. but its definetly noticable

BF3 will run at 90FPS on pc, its consoles fault that this game will be running at 30FPS, not the devs, and tbh i dont care

It's like watching little children to be honest.
If you say stupid things like this about your competitors you just look like a dumb, jealous, insecure, immature retard. Regardless who it is (EA, Dice, Activision, IW, etc.).
Games don't care about insults, puns, or whatever, we care about the product: the game.

Can we stop all of the goddamn insult? It's getting really old. I'm beginning to rethink my preorder...

A-Fat-Mudkip Just wandering why is BF3 released 3 days early for NA, seems a bit unfair to be honest

Its like that for most games. We in NA will get it first. But you can still come to america when the game comes and buy it and then fly right back to great britian to play.


No you cannot, as on the games in different country's they have different region codes so it wouldn't work.

I like how EA makes it that BF 3 could stand up to MW 3..... As much as i hate the CoD franchise MW 3 will one top..... again.
