Between Red Orchestra 2 and the other games coming out this year I don't think I really need to play this. Every time they announce something it makes me less interested.
Server browser... In a web browser
DVDs dont require Origin... oh they do.
Map editor possible... no its not.
So all of that bullshit about EA games not requiring Origin and EA just trying to fight Steam was a joke. They just want Origin to be Steam, they don't care about retailers or other digital stores. |

It never ceases to amaze me that people not only put up with this garbage, they actually pay for it.

Yep, it's annoying but not surprising if you played the Alpha.
You log in to the "battle log" website they've created, there you get access to a web based server browser, buddies list and can view stats, setup VOIP channels (web browser plug-ins required). When you join a server the game loads in the background, while this happens "Origin" pops up to the foreground and it cycles through advertisements on EA's store. If you minimize it then BF3 starts minimized as well. I couldn't find a way to stop it from popping up.
You need to leave your web browser open and have "Origin" running in the background while you play BF3.
There is no in game server browser, some people think that it was missing because it was Alpha but DICE went through all this work to make the game run with the web based frontend and "Origin". There's no way they would double their work and put a traditional server browser in game as well. No ingame browser? Have to login through the web? Plugins? Sounds like LAN play without a internet connection is shot too.
Well that sealed the deal.

The more I hear abot bf3 the more I'm convinced ro2 will be more of a true successor to the bf series than bf3 itself. |
