Have BF3 , enjoying the visual treat and MP gaming. On the other hand MW3 Doesn't impress me in GFX wise but game play looks ok. but at a price of 2.5K I will give this a skip for now. will check a month later and buy COD:MW & MW2

Thanks.



Anyway, voted for BF3.

[Extreme Gamer]

BF3 because its much better than Activisions money milker.

MW3 looks stale, finishes in 3-4 hours, and the reviewers were either paid by activision (except gameSpy) or mixed cocaine in their Vodka.

A request to team digit, please review the PC version of MW3, not console.

[Charan]

I think digit should do a Battlefield 3 vs Modern Warfare 3 Comparison in their print edition

[gameranand]

BF 3 anyday. I guess I don't need to point out reasons for that.

Do you own both the games?Have you played CoD online?It is a multiplayer game first.Going by (stupid) SP comparisons,BF3's single player campaign is distinctly average.

[JojoTheDragon]

MP is the selling point for both these games.

But SP wise, CoD always manages to perform(if you overlook the stone-age game engine).

Totally agree. I can hardly find much difference between COD:MW and MW3 when it comes to graphics

Nope didn't even tried it on my system. Played on friend's pc.

[Piyush]

MW3-->as usual very small gameplay
BF3-->quite buggy and glitchy as compared to MW

and BTW TF2 still pwns both of them

3rd option should be Team Fortress 2

[cyborg47]

BF3!! why? Its entirely new to me and Im enjoying the hell out of it
No hate towards MW3, just too tired of it. New comers might enjoy it though.

MW3 SP is very good.Gfx are not great but they do the job.

[Drumminggeek]

Well basically.... BF3 has better gameplay, graphics etc..
BUT MW3 has a good story and more entertainment value....so...MW3 wins for me....but by a small margin

[Shivam24]

just bought mw3,
and it feels like i wasted my money...
gameplay and graphics are not good than battlefield 3..
story i'll find out....

[healerneil]

Ambivalent as of yet....lets wait for the price to come down..at this price it is very easy to make a decision as which one to savour this winter

Feels as stale as the predecessor. COD4/5 were good and MW2/3 are terrible.

COD is a 1:1 (SP:MP) title. Many buy the game only for SP. BF3 has a longer and better campaign, even though its a 1:4 (SP:MP) title.

Obviously you have no idea that COD sells better on consoles (90% revenue)...and they play multiplayer more according to you (not including splitscreen because it cannot be done on PC)

In fact, the PC version's dedicated servers are only unranked, so you do not gain exp and unlock new weapons, which defeats the purpose of reintroducing dedicated servers.

Go to the metacritic website and look at the user reviews.

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Call of duty 1 and 2 might have been "1:1". Face it,people buy Modern Warfare games for MP.
And why are you going on about PC?The thread is about CoD vs BF3 the games.It is only fair if comparisons are done between their best versions.PC or console has nothing to do with it.

Oh,and BF3's campaign is plain boring.I don't care much though because I bought it for MP.

[Extreme Gamer]

I said "many" not "most".

I would not compare a console to a PC. The PC is the only platform capable of showing a game engine's full potential, which is why I go on about PC.

If people buy MW only for MP then the console version should not sell more than PC.

Face it, COD4 got critical acclaim because it had awesome SP AND MP. That is how COD in general is viewed.

COD6 removed dedicated server support, had too short a campaign, which made the game boring (low replay value). Spec Ops was fun, but not long. COD4 on PC still had more players online at any given time compared to MW2 on PC. All my friends who give a rats ass about COD tend to agree with me.

COD8 brought back dedicated server support, but the purpose of bringing it back was defeated because dedicated servers would only be unranked (no level ups, weapon unlocks or exp). Over that the added COD ELite BS where to get DLC you have to pay $50 a year?! You had to pay $15 per DLC on COD6/7, and it was free on PC in COD4.
When activision scum took over they decided to overprice everything, and so most of the team left.

Even if the best versions are compared, i.e. X360 MW3 and PC BF3, BF3 still wins.

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Yeah BF3 is better than MW3,because of superior tech and fresh MP.However for me CoD has better campaign mode and a fun MP which the fans of the series will enjoy.
What I can't stand is people jumping on "MW is sh1t bandwagon" without even giving it a go.


Btw. this perception is totally wrong.

People buy games for whichever gaming platform they have.Most have consoles.
Infact the MP community is much larger on consoles.

[Extreme Gamer]

On consoles you don't get a good MP experience unless it is split-screen.

I have played MW1,2,BO on PS3 and X360 so I know.

However for me CoD has better campaign mode and a fun MP which the fans of the series will enjoy.

I used to be a fan...

On MW3 there is minimal learning curve while BF3 is 99% about realism, so you have to adapt to the game.

How can you actually enjoy the MP if there are no dedicated servers (bringing ping and bandwidth quality into question)?

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Not as good as a PC granted,but like I said most gamers possess and prefer consoles.
