sounds like a better "PC" game then bf3 is bragging they got :)

Sounds to me like they're trying to have a **** measuring contest. Notice how the article specifically talks about how the pc version will supposedly have all the features that are "missing" from BF3? Considering BC2 now is nothing like BC2 was when it first launched, I don't think it's a fair comparison to well..compare them at all, at this point.

Edit: I actually had to self censor, lol

BF3 is the future for now.

like show that **** cd is the figure of rap music? if that's the case, you guys can have it.

all you can do is compare of what out there. BF3 devloppers are the immature ones saying how COD is **** and talking about how they are going to own them in sales... if anything, this ****ing contest was started by DICE by talking crap as where the activision guys are trying to win it by talking about themselves.

This game has been hiding behind it's name. I am unimpressed. WHERE IS THE GAMEPLAY?!?!

Hiding.

The gameplay? Just check the trailers for Modern Warfare 1, 2, and Black Ops and you'll see the gameplay. It's exactly the same! Yay, how original!

i like the gamplay. why fix what isn't broke? and besides, can't judge it until you have played it...

just fix the balancing, it was terrible in black ops...

Oh, but I've played it several times already. Why fix what isn't broke? Well...charging me $60 for the same game over and over isn't exactly nice, now is it?

I thought Black Ops was far better than Modern Warfare 2, at least in the multiplayer department. At least they gave us dedicated servers...

that is true. and yeah 60 bucks a year sucks but i do it every year with sports game so meh. sports game rarely change drastically year after year, but they usually do enough for me to get a retarded amount of hours out of it playing with friends. same with CoD and bf3 whenever it comes to steam when i pick it up. not saying i'm not going to buy BF3, just not yet.

We're talking single player here. At least that's what I thought.

well unless someone has some thoughts on the SP for CoD, i'll take what the members say around here that's it buggy and has terrible AI (like bc2 did...). those aren't judgements, those are facts that no one can deny. you can't have an opinion on crashing, it what it does. you can't have an opinion of dumb AI, dumb AI is dumb AI...

That's fine by me if you feel it's worth purchasing. That's what it comes down to...spending your money on something you enjoy.

The only reason I said something in the first place is because some of your posts came off as attacks towards BF3 and praise towards MW3 in the inappropriate thread (CoD praise in the BF3 thread, and vice versa).

Are you sure the guys who are giving their opinion on those things are playing a legit version of the game? To be playing a legit version of the game the store they bought it from would have had to break street date by 3 or 4 days and I don't see that happening.

I'm more interested in how those people got to play the game so many days in advance than in what they're saying about the game. Not that we can talk about that, so I don't ask.

i just hate it when douchebags talk crap (EA/DICE) about the competition/leaders (activision) and never ever back it up.

it's leaked for 360... the leak for 360 is the same version people will be buying. so yes, i am sure they are cause i know the retail for 360 has leaked. and yeah, we can talk about leaked games...

I can't comment on any of this because I'm not familiar with what happened. I didn't start following either game until around the time the BF3 Beta started.

last two DICE games EA/DICE have been talking about how they are going to dethrone CoD as the king of online FPS (did it with BC2 and MoH) and failed miserably at it. and they have continued to do it with this game.

It's all completely irrelevant really. My main thing was that I was questioning why we were discussing the single player so...passionately....when we all know that's not why we buy these games. At least not the main reason. (for most people)

I don't like that anyone talks dirty about the competition. The game should be doing the talking. BC2 started off rough but ended up a pretty great game, MoH sucked.

I get that. Not many singleplayer campaigns really have that "wow" factor anymore, and the Battlefield series was never known for it.

why? if it was the opposite situation bf3 fanboys would be saying the same thing about activision acting like a bunch of butthurt babies... but it's the opposite that's going on.

To be fair DICE is only responsible for half of MoH. Also to be fair, that half was still bad. :rofl:

Because until BF3 (most don't consider BC2 a true battlefield game) the battlefield series never had a single player.

    • BATorrent 3.0.2 by Razvan Serea BATorrent is a lightweight, open-source BitTorrent client built with modern C++ and Qt 6, offering a clean, fast, and privacy-focused alternative to traditional torrent apps. It supports magnet links, .torrent files, resume data, sequential downloading, per-file priorities, and even imports from qBittorrent. Power users benefit from integrated RSS auto-download with regex filtering, duplicate detection, and automatic tracker lists from Stremio. Streaming is seamless thanks to auto-detected players like VLC and IINA. BATorrent includes robust VPN tools—interface binding, auto-detection for WireGuard-based services like Mullvad and NordLynx, kill switch, proxy support, and IP filtering. A full WebUI enables remote control, while integrations with Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby automate library updates. With themes, speed scheduling, system-tray alerts, and cross-platform support for Windows, Linux, and macOS, BATorrent delivers a polished, high-performance torrenting experience. BATorrent features: Core .torrent file and magnet link support Resume data — picks up where you left off after restart Import torrents from qBittorrent Create .torrent files from any file or folder Sequential download mode Per-file priority control (skip, low, normal, high) Seed ratio limits with auto-pause DHT, PEX, UPnP, NAT-PMP RSS Auto-Download Subscribe to RSS feeds — automatically download new torrents as they appear Regex filters — match only what you want (e.g. 1080p|720p, S01E\d+) Per-feed settings — custom save path, check interval (5–1440 min), enable/disable Auto-download — matched items are downloaded automatically in the background Supports magnet links, .torrent URLs, and tags Tray notifications when items are auto-downloaded Duplicate detection — never downloads the same item twice Stremio Stremio Addon System pre-installed — works out of the box Auto tracker list from ngosang/trackerslist Streaming Play while downloading — stream video files before the download is complete Supports mp4, mkv, avi, mov, wmv, flv, webm, m4v, ts Auto-detects installed players (VLC, IINA, system default) VPN & Privacy Interface binding — lock torrent traffic to a specific network interface (e.g. tun0) Auto VPN detection — identifies VPN interfaces (tun, tap, WireGuard, Mullvad, NordLynx, ProtonVPN) Kill switch — automatically pauses all torrents if the VPN interface drops Auto-resume — resumes only the torrents paused by the kill switch when VPN reconnects Proxy support — SOCKS5 and HTTP proxy with optional authentication IP filtering — load P2P blocklists to block unwanted IP ranges Protocol encryption (enabled / forced / disabled) WebUI Remote management — control torrents from any browser at http://localhost:8080 REST API with JSON responses Add torrents via magnet link or .torrent upload Pause, resume, remove torrents remotely View peers and files per torrent Dark theme matching the desktop app HTTP Basic Auth with SHA-256 password hashing Configurable port and remote access (localhost vs 0.0.0.0) Interface 3 themes: Dark, Light, Midnight (bat/vampire aesthetic) Real-time speed graph Detailed panel with tabs: General, Peers, Files, Trackers Filter bar: search by name, filter by state (Active, Downloading, Seeding, Paused, Finished) Drag & drop .torrent files and magnet links Drag & drop reorder in torrent list System tray with notifications (download complete, kill switch events, RSS auto-downloads) Splash screen with bat animation Bilingual: English and Portuguese (BR), auto-detected from system locale Bandwidth Scheduler Alternative speed limits — set different download/upload limits on a schedule Time range — configure active hours (e.g. 01:00 to 07:00), supports overnight ranges Per-day control — choose which days of the week the schedule applies Automatically switches between normal and alternative speeds Media Server Integration Plex — automatically trigger library scan when a download completes Jellyfin / Emby — same automatic library refresh via API Configure server URL and authentication token/key in Settings System Cross-platform: Windows, Linux, macOS Auto-shutdown — automatically shut down PC when all downloads complete (60s cancellable countdown) Auto-update system (AppImage on Linux, installer on Windows, DMG on macOS) CLI arguments: pass .torrent files or magnet: URIs directly Keyboard shortcuts: Space to toggle pause, Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+O to open BATorrent 3.0.2 changelog: Phone pairing & WebUI The browser WebUI was reskinned to match the desktop app — same dark palette, Inter font, flat surfaces, the real BATorrent logo (it was a random bat before), and a proper magnet icon. It now looks like the same product, not a separate dashboard. Pairing is one tap and zero typing: the generated WebUI password is now copyable, and the QR code carries the credentials — scanning it from your phone logs straight in (no typing the IP or password), then drops the credentials from the address bar. Search Two new providers: RuTor (CIS sources, no login, via a public TorAPI relay) and Torrents-CSV. Results are sorted by seeders (healthiest first), and each search now times out after 15 s so one dead provider can't hang the UI. Files & trackers Per-file priority is back: right-click a file in the detail panel to set Skip / Low / Normal / High. Rename an individual file inside a torrent (double-click or the file menu), separate from renaming the torrent. Remove a tracker from a torrent (the ✕ on a tracker row); adding was already there. Smart Paste on Ctrl+V — paste a magnet, a 40-char info-hash, or a .torrent URL straight from the clipboard and it's added immediately (text fields still paste text normally). Covers & titles Anime fansub naming ([Group] Title - NN) now resolves to the right show. Audio channel layouts in titles (DDP5.1, 7.1, …) are stripped so they don't pollute cover matching. Under the hood The legacy QWidget interface is gone. QML had been the only UI since 3.0.0 (reachable old code lived behind a hidden --legacy flag); with parity confirmed, the entire QWidget layer — main window, every dialog, the theme manager — was removed (~13,400 lines). The four restored actions above were features that backend already supported but the QML port had never wired. macOS: the WebUI password hash moved out of the keychain into app settings, so launching the app no longer pops a login-keychain password prompt on unsigned builds. The actual password still lives in the keychain. Cleanup: ~400 orphaned translation strings and a batch of dead code removed; internal duplication collapsed; an ARCHITECTURE.md added for contributors. Unit / security / memory tests and the ASan/UBSan/TSan sanitizers stay green.
