Battlefield 3: Close Quarters DLC now available to everyone

Awesome expac. The maps are way better than any maps I've played on cod, this isn't a cod clone. The new conquest game mode is nice, but the real shine is the squad deathmatcfh / gun game on the new maps. The gun game is the finest I've ever played in any fps. So gd fun. The maps are very well designed. Can't wait to see what they have in store for AK

Tenklis why are you trying to compare cod with BF3 and vice versa? they are fps but one is a tactical and the other is an arcade :/

that's two different games with an entirely different way of playing. i'm not trying to sound rude and i know you mean well but both games have their strong and weak points when it comes to the maps they host. you're kinda comparing chessboards with damboards atm.

from what i know it often depends on what kind of situation the player is in along with everyone else in the server. sometimes people just know where they need to be and other times people just seem to scatter off with no idea where to go and to them you seem to do the same. to me the map is just a thing, a playingboard. the players are the guys that give it the shape and sometimes it's an advantage and other times it's an obstacle depending on the rules. i find the majority of maps in both cod and bf a challenge. but some can be crazy though. like conquest metro or (if anyone still remembers) killhouse

especially killhouse. that map is such troll on free for all xD

I would've agreed with you before CQ. It really is COD-like. There are virtually no tactics to be found.

Close quarters is more call of duty esque than any of the many other BF maps. But if your on the other maps, it most definitely does have loads of tactics. WAY more than Cod could ever muster up.

hmm, since you put it that way. i do recall running around like a madman in ziba tower capturing flags with every now and then a 0,9 - 3,4 second lasting encounter.

not exactly my thing either but some people prefer it that way. the next dlc pack might be something more our style you never know.

S-I-E It's not my thing at all. And I do know the next one will be my style...the maps that've been shown are absolutely massive.

chautemoc yeah, it was something based on vehicle warfare am i right?

S-I-E Heavily.

chautemoc hehe, nice!
