Paid off my pre-order yesterday. Played the heck out of BFBC2 with friends, so ready for this game to come out. The addition of server selection to consoles will be ground breaking for the FPS genre as far as the consoles go.

^this... The game will be the same on all platforms, the only difference will be that the Computer will support 64 player MP on conquest rather than the 24 on Consoles. But to counter-act this, the console maps will be slightly smaller in size to keep the action flowing.
The only thing that might make it better to individuals is the community on each platform, I for one play the Xbox and have around 10 people that I play with religiously in a clan. So that is what makes the game fun, I have to say it's not as fun if you don't have friends to play with.

Because the battlefield games are really really squad based, so it makes it a little harder to play if you don't have friends that can help you achieve certain goals.

Graphically, there will be little to no difference between the consoles and computers, the game was designed to take full advantage of the consoles graphic capabilities. Which to date, has not been done.

Exactly. I hate playing when no friends are on cause I always get in a ****ty squad and seem like I have no help. I hate sitting back and playing conservative or whatever. I like running right in and capturing or setting a charge. All my friends are the same way so its much more fun

Completely false. The game was developed on the PC, for the PC and ported to the consoles. Consoles will run at 30 fps while the PC will run at 60 fps (capped 70). There will be a great difference between PC and console in smoothness and graphics. Dice has already confimed every bit of this.

PC graphics for BF3 will KILL all consoles. I have a buddy building a rig just for this game to take advantage of it. However, it is 360 for me.

Not false, the designers of the game have said that there will be little difference in the graphics.....

First and foremost, Dice has completely built their new Frostbite 2 engine from the ground up. While I was impressed by what Dice accomplished with the original Frostbite, it did have it’s limitations. Frostbite 2 has been built to take full advantage of the extra muscle you can only find on a gaming PC. DX9 will not be supported by the new Frostbite Engine as it has been built primarily around DX11?s architecture, sorry XP users but it’s way past time you upgraded to 7 anyway. Frostbite 2 is also optimized to take full advantage of a 64bit OS and sports features such as multi-core optimization, multi-threading support, compute shader support, and tesselation.
While Dice seems to have taken great care in building Frostbite 2 with a PC platform in mind, the engine is still multi-platform. FB2 for the consoles will be tailored to each consoles specific strengths according to DICE rendering architect Johann Andersson…
“Frostbite 2 is developed simultaneously for the strengths of each platform”
That’s good news for PC gamers that were worried about their experience being somewhat lessened by a multi-platform engine for BF3! Instead of building a single engine that can run on all platforms, Dice has pretty much created multiple versions of FB2, with the console versions of FB2 obviously being scaled back to accommodate the limits of what said console can do.
I leave you with a quote from former DICE CEO Fredrik Lilegren…

“What the PC version is going to be, Battlefield 3, I think it’s going to absolutely blow everyone away, but I can’t tell you what it is, but it will blow people away.”
Lock & load gentleman!
