MW3 vs BF3
 

a group of about 5 of us are trying to decide which one to get.
We like the Call of Duty series, but weren't big fans of MW2

BF3 looks good but ea servers being what they are we aren't sure if it will be that good.

Right now it is a toss up.
Does anyone have any big pros or cons for either?

I kind of like BF3 letting 24 people per map on it.

Wii Sports

Rock Band

Blast Corps

What exactly are the EA servers like?

If you didn't like MW2, you probably won't like MW3.

bf3 will have 64 per map...

On PC.

Gears

? like any other? you connect to it and play.

well yeah, thats where the real game is at

I was asking the guy. He seems to have an opinion on them and I'd like him to expound on it.

I'm behind a computer 8 hours a day, so yeah, I don't want the 'real' game. Besides, I would have no one to play with on PC. XBL > PC. :D

ea servers are not as stable as others, have you tried playing madden online and get disconnected or can't log in because servers are full or down.

No. But I did play over 200 hours of Bad Company 2 and 99% of the time, the servers were completely fine. The only trouble I had connecting was towards the end of the game's life when they were taking servers down to use them for BF3 and TOR.

COD has no dedicated servers, that's why there are hosts and that's why the connections are so random and why the game gets hacked mercilessly all the time.
