BF3 is not just about conquest, why would they put Rush in if they thought BF3 was just about conquest? Rush should be a part of it, a bit of variety never hurt. Granted Rush sucks on some maps, so don't allow Rush to be on those maps.
Why is there no killcam? It's not like you can see where they are. I like to see who killed me so that in those last dying seconds I can watch my team mate kill the bugger in my revenge.
I don't agree with FF being on. All you get are idiots TK'ing on purpose or punishing for the wrong reasons. FF on = no fun! Especially when you're are at spawn and some little toe-rag is running everyone down in the jeep! Joy!
My decisions are based on playing BF3. I have not played BF2 therefore there is no comparison. BF2 is not BF3!
Although I have played Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Road to Rome, Battlefield Vietnam. Again, completely different games as I discovered when I played BF3, I thought I could play BF3 like I used to play the early Battlefield games, but they are all far too different. People play with different strategies, therefore it is almost impossible to judge a game just because of one's own experiences from a previous edition. I learnt the hard way unfortunately
