Should I get this or COD?

I'll probably play neither much.

Do you mean you are getting shot before you have even spotted where the person is? Or you are seeing people but you arent sure if they are enemies or not?

Depends what type of play you prefer really, if you like the occasional hour with mates or just fancy a slug fest then buy CoD, if you want a good few hours working in a team and being a bit more tactical then buy BF. If you've never played a BF game before though I don't think you'd like it, unless you played it a lot.

Errr, putting it in COD terms, to me it's like everyone is running round with ghost pro on? Names never seem to appear on heads, etc. Even people on my team have like a shitty little blue triangle or somethin. Only seems to be people in my squad that have a name over their head?

Sounds like cod for me then.

I've enjoyed the past couple of COD's anyway tbh.

Have a look at MW3 videos online, there was a 4 hour livestream by IGN last night so that will be on youtube.

I forgot what Ghost Pro does

Isnt it something like you dont show up on the map when they have the UAV?

If so aye, you dont get that on BF, you only pop up when firing your gun (with no suppressor) and only briefly at that OR when a team mate "spots" the enemy, they'll stay lit up until they cant see them, they might show up when getting shot too, not sure.

Sorry, explained a bit more with an edit. I just mean nobody names seem to be above their head. It just doesn't seem obvious who's who, which is the same gripe I had with the beta.

Oh right aye, your team have blue triangles, your sqaud gets green with names and the enemies are red triangles (only when spotted). Its a little harder than COD as you dont get OnEsHoTkILlEr_OmG111 appearing above enemies heads but its something you get used to.

Basically if i see nothing above their head, they get shot

Suppose it makes it more realistic, but like i say if they have no identification they are enemy, so fucking shoot

You do get used to it, took me a while on BC2.

Dont look for Red, look for nothing.

Jay-sus HC is hard

I was 1-5 within a matter of seconds

Got some revenge in the next game though with the shotgun, it was that level with the shipping crates dotted about, people seem to flock to those for cover. Might try some CQ on HC, bound to be good.

Canals, i either do awesome or shit on there

Always loads of action at those crates on CQ with people trying to take A.

Yes, always get tanks and other vehicles steaming in over the edge on that. I rocket them whilst they get stuck

I do the same. I just jump around the trains and try not to stay still for too long.

Good place to go is far right of the tracks (if you are heading to A from C) lay down on the edge near the bridge, can see people running around the crates, get a few kills there, move on, then come back a bit later.

Is that where you have a view of that barge thing with a few crates on? I kept getting owned there the other day, some bloke had that area locked down

aye think so, seem to never get spotted there and never had someone run up behind me and get me either. Also fun just running around the crates trying to get people.
