      I like the maps. But it's not Battlefield there really is no strategy, especially with the random spawn points.

      It's frustrating when you see a squad capping a point, figure out what their next move will be, flank them and wipe them out, only to have another enemy spawn in right behind you and kill you.

      In the smaller infantry heavy original maps, Seine, Metro and Bazaar there is definitely strategy to use. And that, to me is what sets apart BF from the COD series.

      The CQ maps are too much Run n Gun for my tastes. I'll play them every once in a while but am perfectly happy with the rest of the rotation.

        I still haven't played any newer maps, but it sounds frustrating.

        With the custom servers, map rotations seem to be much improved. I have some solid Rush servers in my favorites.

          I'll only play RUSH with you guys. It's so frustrating jumping on a pub where no one is working together or have no idea how to attack or defend a MCOM.

            I played with a few random last night on firestorm. We had the other team down to just a few tickets every set of MComs and people would disappear or end up on the opposite side of the map.

            I felt like I was single handedly defending against an army.

                    Hey guys I'm new to the site, but I just got Battlefield 3 recently and have been trying to get into it! It's a lot different than COD and it's taking me awhile to get good so if anyone has tips or just wants to play I am down!

                      ^My man, it's simple: practice, practice, practice. You'll learn strategies that suit your play-style as you progress through the game and rack up tons of hours.

                      Find your class and your weapon(s) of choice, and work on your reflexes.

                        I will add you next time I am on XBL. I play battlefield pretty frequently.

                        I also haven't picked up the DLC yet, but for different reasons (read: I am poor) and from what I have heard from some of you guys I might not end up getting it at all. If it's too much like COD, then I'm not interested. That's the main reason I got into BF3 so much was because I was sick of the call of duty series. Last thing I need is to spend 50 bucks on DLC that makes this game just like it.

                          Well this should be the only DLC that is COD-like, it's $50 bucks towards all the other DLC's too with 2 week early access.

                            My PS3 has completely froze three times, tonight. I don't know if that is Battlefield related or not, but it never does that with any game.

                              Was it on the Kharkand maps?

                              Chizzy was saying that he re-downloaded the BTK dlc and his stopped freezing.

                                I forgot how much fun this game was and how much it totally immerses you. I was playing Conquest at Gulf of Oman last night. I have never been in the military, so I don't know if this is what real war is like. But it felt like it to me. While in battle, seeing tanks, mobile AAs, hearing and seeing helicopters and planes flying above. Man, I was so immersed in combat.
