    A new pre-order version has appeared for Game. It has Back to Karkand and a pre-order pack with allegedly exclusive weapons.

    MW2 is a prime example...weapons have recoil except for the ACR..

    Thats not recoil, its simply a graphical representation of the weapon popping up and down, the crosshair doesnt move at all, it does graphically but in reality its not,its nothing more than a graphical representation.
    Play something like day of defeat source,red orchestra,ARMA or even BF2 and BC2 to see proper recoil, you physically have to compensate by adjusting your aiming , in MW2 you dont, try it out, the crosshair/ironsight simply pops back down automatically to where it started from with no need for you to re-adjust.

    I mean as in holding down the trigger.. as in recoil ;) not perfect recoil or proper recoil...just recoil :)
    It's there...just look at the scar-h for example..
    On the ACR..it's completely graphical alright

    anyway..back to BF3....any idea when we get to see a sneak peak of multiplayer? or do we have to wait for the beta?

    It's that time of the week, so it's time for more concept art.

    I'm getting quite bored with the drip feed of concept art.

    While yes, they look kinda cool - I want to see in game shots. And not mere screen caps of the vids we've all seen.

    In which case I present EA's own produced Pwned program, which does at least have tiny glimpses of new content:

    Er, is that a giant pentagram? Is the third faction to be demons?

    sweet baby jesus I need this game.

    I can honestly say that the last time I was this excited about a new release was probably modern warfare 2. Now I'm not a duty fanboy but I was really buzzed about that it that time. I even took a day off work, which I see is pretty popular now even for the next releases. I can whole heartedly say that I'm not even remotely excited in the least about the next COD, but what if this turns into a massive disappointment? I kind of want it to be a 6 year game, maybe more. I still play CS and quake live for fook sake. Great games, and timeless in a way. Is it even possible for modern games to be that good anymore? Like will anyone be playing MW2 10 years after release like cs and quake?

    Huh... I wonder what game they're referring to there? :rolleyes:

    Anyone else think that BF3 should have a song that defines it as well as this:

    did for Bad company? Obviously not as light.....methinks that a full version of the heavy distorted bass at the end of the trailers would be good.
