I like it

Rush sucks in Vietnam and sometimes it can be frustrating your team is horrible but I really like it a lot! I also like the payload maps in Team Fortress 2...objective based modes are more fun to me rather than capturing and defending flags

I agree. I love rush and conquest both. They are both there, so what's the issue? I don't want to always play one mode. rush is more intense and a bit bottle-necky, but it's still tactical and loads of fun...

Rush is just a static, grinding, mindless gametype. Won't play it a single time.

You my not like it, but calling it static is not only unfair but ridiculous. (specially because the maps actually change on rush games, whereas on conquest they remain static).
Naturally it's normal that people don't like a certain gametype, but i get sick of hearing people bashing rush, for the most strange reasons. don't like it, don't play it. now don't make it sound as if it's bad, or broken or static etc, as this might dissuade people who'd probably enjoy it, from playing it.

on a funny side not, decided to get this for the PC (just upgraded my pc after playing BFBC 1 and 2 on the 360), this is the message i just got on EA's Origin:

Bevor du Battlefield 3™ Limited Edition in deinen Warenkorb legen kannst, musst du die folgende Auswahl treffen:
In Übereinstimmung mit dem deutschen Jugendschutzgesetz steht dieser Titel nur zwischen 23:00 Uhr und 06:00 Uhr zum Kauf zur Verfügung. In der Zeit von 06:00 Uhr bis 23:00 Uhr kannst du dieses Produkt deinem Warenkorb nicht hinzufügen.

for those who don't understand, it basically means that i can only buy it after 23PM, because of the kids..

So digital store is open only 7 hours/day for M rated games? That's ridiculous.

That's just so stupid, just as useless as asking people to fill in their age when entering a site or loading up a video on gametrailers or something like that..

Don't see why there's so much hate for rush...

Great game mode imo.

The reasons why people hate rush are pretty well explored. Awful map balance, limited vehicle/map resources, and choke points that funnel the entire server through a meat grinder. Conquest is dynamic. Rush isn't.

I'm very disappointed that the beta is OpMetro again, but what can ya do. It will still be awesome. Featuring a MoH/BC2 style map in the "true" sequel to BF3 is a bit of a gaffe I think, but at least they're not showing all of their cards.

The maps don't change. They progress. The frontline is constantly shifting in conquest. Squads are flanking, and at its best.. it's far more dynamic. And whatever dude.. like it all you want.. but in our opinion it is bad and it is broken.

I guess. I love both tho, rush largely when I'm on my own, conquest with mates. Do you know whether the beta has conquest or not?

Apparently not :/ I've been a little busy but from what I've gathered it's the same map as the alpha.

It doesn't include all of the gameplay features either. I don't think we're getting commo rose in the PC beta.

I got a chance to play all 3 versions at the Eurogamer Expo in London over the weekend. The PC version looks literally unbelievable, its soo far ahead of any other game that it just seems surreal. The 360 version holds up rather well but the same cant be said about the ps3 version which seems to have lots of framerate and vsync issues. The game is awesome, everything about it feels far more rerfined than BC2.

Nice should be able to try this tomorrow. Even if i like it i don't think i will buy it. Loved BF2, but i just don't feel like play in a MP shooter for now.

Some live beta gameplay. This guy is pretty good. He's on the defending team right now, in the subway, which is basically feeding him infinite kills.. cause ya know.. chokepoints are fun!
