I liked the story in BF3 a whole lot better, personally. It was just a cool way to present it, I was always excited to finish a mission to watch the cut scenes, which were very well done if you ask me.

What makes the COD SP better though? I think most people prefer is because it is a continuation of the previous story so you are naturally more drawn to it.

For instance, if you never played MW1 or 2 and just picked up BF3 and MW3 which would you prefer, and why?

BF3's superiority in SP can indeed be arguable, especially when both games aren't really doing the same methods of delivering a story. To me, BF3 has a much more manageable pacing and transition from cutscene to game has been really seamless. MW3 is gunning for more explosive, aggressive scenes to keep players reeled into their seats, which to most translates to a "better" experience.

There is no way in hell sales = a good game

A toyota corolla outsells a Ferrari 458, but the Toyota is a crappier car.

I know there is a different in price, but compare them as cars.


Just because more people bought MW3 just proves there's alot of kids buying call of duty to try and be cool.

BF3 story is fairly poor.. At best! But MW3's is probably better... Honestly I don't care I bought BF3 number one BF3 is well a new game with the best possible multiplayer experience possible! Whereas MW3 is the same game (Basically) even the menu is the same! It just has a different background, its not really pushing the limits of technology rather the limits of the engine which peaked with MW2 and hasn't really improved in MW3 at all. It is the same game even with some changes it is basically a update or map pack and I think the COD franchise really needs to move on!

If anyone is judging bf3 by the sp they are doing it wrong.

What's not to compare?

Both games have single and multiplayer modes....how is it not fair to compare them?


Also, you have to be a real die-hard FPS player to be suffering through these boring single-player shooters with the likes of Skyrim and LOZ out right now. Just my opinion of course thumb.gif

Watched my kids playing MW3 last night. They're 27 and 30. They don't like BF. There's alot of that going around. People vote with their wallets, and BF loses the vote.smile.gif
