Anyone that had a ps3 had to put in the ps2 version of BF2:MODERN COMBAT. Is that EQUAL? I think not. So Microsoft has rules, what does that have to do with PS3? It's not our fault or Dice's fault that the 360 has these limitations. The PS3 users should not be held back because of this, it's not fair. The only reason DICE won't give clan support to the PS3 alone is because they don't want to "upset" MICROSOFT when 360 Battlefield fans switch to the PS3 and stop playing on the 360 so they get the clan support, lol. It's always about the money baby. How many PS2 users that played Modern Combat left SONY to get the newest version on the 360??? ALOT! Did it affect SONY to the point where they didn't allow BF:BC not to be released on their console? no! So why are they so worried about what Microsoft might do?

Haha, I'm tempted to mention the deal between M$ and EA... This one:

EA and Microsoft launch dynamic in-game advertising system

So perhaps one might say there is a conflict of interest - but I'll curb my
suspicious nature for once. =]

You're right though - it definitely is not fair. Of course you've heard the
"Life isn't fair" line often enough, so give the PS3 users what they want
and tell that to the 360 users - they can take up the issue with M$...

Too often PS3 gamers get the sh***y end of the stick IMO.

its old argument some think its not finsihed rest of us think it is, ones who dont like it can trade it ones who like it can play it.

no its not over... we need to start blowing up Microsoft Fourums see if we can get anything done there... power to the people

So you see, you have a team of workers who are basically motivated by meeting targets rather than creating mind-blowing games. And it will carry on... Dice won't fix BF:BC because it's not in their interest... They want you to buy the next BF games so they can all pat each other on the back knowing that EA's share value has maintained a steady rate. It's a system rife in the games industry and IMO is corroding it from the core.

If Dice were any good they should have released the game when it's ready, not just to meet deadlines. And now we have the likes of gvd saying "oh, we can't do that, it's too difficult.". Yeah, and the reason it's difficult is because the dev team has probably been moved on to the next project to bring in the next load of sales figures for EA.

I think we have every right to slag off Dice. They're just part of EA's money making machine.

Never a truer word spoken. I've held these suspicions for a long a time.

If you remember, Conquest was never going to be included in the game ... why? EA axed it to save money.

But when everybody complained, DICE were desperate to tell everybody Conquest would be released as an update later on, just so they could secure more sales of the game (EA strategy no doubt). Even though the Conquest mode they released was completely half-assed (but that's a different story).

The fact is when it really comes down to supporting the game by removing glitches or adding features, DICE completely disappear. Too busy working on new projects like you say.

And what was with the truely appalling servers on this game, another trademark of EA? Proving they will only invest the bare minimum, and ultimately don't care about the customer.

right so the patch and the new maps coming out were done by the smurfs?

Wow, what use are new maps, when the fundamentals of the game are broken and need patching more than anything else.

If DICE put up a poll on what people wanted to see added to the game, new maps would fall way behind a list of other things e.g. full team communication, clan servers, patching the many numerous bugs, better servers, fixing conquest mode, being able to vote-to-kick team killers etc.

Its a joke how laggy it is without private rooms on the server.Imagine if they did have them.

What the **** are you on about? The game is very playable now. No clan support or mics doesn't make it unplayable does it? Besides the extensive messaging caters for that. Lag? What lag? You still have lag? Check your router and internet connection. I've been playing in the same room with japs and russians and the game was as smooth as baby's bottom.

killzone there is little point trying to explain to these experts that know so much that the reason they get lag 99% of time is their connection, because they are all experts running with moderate nats and all have 999mb connections and it couldnt possiably be anything to do with them.

I never made any direct mention to lag? I said the servers should be better. And by that I mean as somebody who lives in the EU I should only ever play on EU servers. Not be routed off to American servers where connection latency starts to have an apparent effect on gameplay.

If you played this game at any kind of competitive level you would see the many flaws in this game. However, if you're happy to treat the game as a 10 minute kick-about, then sure, you'll see nothing wrong.

We, as the paying customers, with a universal upset about clan support & lack of stable communication have EVERY right to complain, who do you think you are to say otherwise?

Would you be happy if you had a brand new TV, had every connection under the sun apart from a HD connection although it's ''HD'' ready?

I would feel bumped especially when the manufacturers came out with some bull it's not possible, the whole game is team based, so it's common sense to be able to create some sort of team based system which supports this is it not...get off the forums noob.

I would buy a PS3 for a fully supported BC.

It is sub standard for the serious, long term player, grow some sense. What would make a serious, long term player keep coming back? Just for the noobs to keep blowing your helo out the sky or to run you over while repairing a there tank?

Private rooms mean hand picked, like minded, competitive players united, not noobs are us.

[SpaceballsPlayer]

why are people still using accounts setup from 2007 just to agree with themselfs.

[norm4260]

SpaceballsPlayer, 'themselves' not 'themselfs'.

I would have expected your grasp of the English language would be better having spent so much time on these forums.

[Colossi Hitman]

Spaceballs, I moderated talk bad company, talk battlefield & talk gaming network, all 3 sites @ various stages when they were active, all owned by the same person but we saw many varied users file through our forums.

I have some of the best & most respected MC players on my f/l who all share the same passion, who wanted to BC to be the 'new' MC, we hoped for a lot but were delivered little.

I smashed the single player game in mere hours on the hardest setting, I played the multiplayer until Conquest came out then it all changed...that appalling excuse for conquest made me sad.

So, why would I mingle with the noobs & likes of you, who really has no idea what they are talking about when I communicated with some of the best & still best players on this game?

Who shared the same passion as me & same ideas for what will make this an all time great rather than another moneyspinner for EA.

That's why you have not seen me on here, I'm no fake account.

That is a pathetic analogy that you used to try and skew things in your opinions favor. Just looked at my Gold Editions box and manual and no where does it say "CLAN SUPPORT". Just because a game would work great with a said feature doesn't mean the lack of it is someones fault, just their loss if it would have benefited them. So the only n00b here is you!

Doesn't say on the game it has clan support, if you had imagined it, it is your problem.

No ladies, DICE were hinting @ it being a team game for months running upto BC's release (wouldn't it make sense to include Clan support for a team game? Like it makes sense to include a fuel tank in a solar powered car for when it get's dark & can't run anymore?) never claimed it was on the box, my point is that it's a team game & didn't deliver the support for that said type of game.

Do you think your smart Luther because you own the Gold edition? Your not alone as I also own that to.

Then you misunderstood what they were hinting at. It is a team game because both modes require team play to achieve the objective. Communication with your squad would help, but who said you need the whole team be a clan in order for it to be a team game?

So what your saying Colossi Hitman is your from a no longer operating forum who only posted on their own forum and had no need to come to the offical forum at any time no matter how many issues on any game in the battlefield series there might be, yet suddenly on one topic you find the urgent need to appear. now that makes sense. well done on beating it on hard, im sure someone will be impressed on here.
