So how is Origin guys? Is it a pain to use or just something different?

You click the icon, it opens and logs in, then you click on the game you want to play and it launches.
That's pretty much it. _________________

Origin doesn't do anything of value. Boot Origin, and use that to boot the Battlelog, and use that to boot the game. Though its not really intrusive so meh.
I've gotten used to the Battlelog but I do wish it were more versatile when it comes to tweaking your soldier. Specifically I really want to make load outs without having to find and boot a game. The lack of a practice mode in general is pretty lame.
I'd have less of an issue with Origin/Battlelog if it were at least flexible enough to do all the stuff you normally could without having to actually load a game. _________________

One bad thing about Origin is your Origin friends and BF3 friends are different. Who designed this crap?
I have to Battlefield again. I really hate Origin now. I am not made of bandwidth.
Edit. Wait it didn't Download or it took 5 seconds. I think it might have just updated.

Like said before, origin isn't intrusive at all and it doesn't clog up my system or anything, my only nuance with it is that it seperates my games from steam .
I've grown to battlelog, its a nice way to check out your own stats as well as others to gauge how they play, which is important when looking for a team of players for competitive play, of course nothing beats trialing a member right up front and see'ing him/her (HAH who are we kidding women in internetz?) in action. All in all a nice addition, and in between games I can multi task with whatever, youtube, forums, epeen stats whoring. _________________ xfire = andylulz

Three enemy chumps pile into a growler.
Floor it, speeding across terrain, towards one of our captured points on the outskirts.
Skid in, stop at the flag, ready to capture.
One rocket from me ends it all.
So good. _________________

Three snipers camping on second floor building.

Said building minus one wall.
Enemy team minus 3 tickets.

Three snipers camped on a roof top. No-one can seemingly get a shot or grenade off in time to take them down. I grab out my secondary grenade launcher. 1 shot, 3 dead tickets. I love this game.

when im standing on top of you jumping up and down, yelling "give me health" give me the bloody health pack.
when im repairing my own tank, dont jump in it and take off without me.
my highlight today was a sniper sitting on a rooftop near flag b and i just spawned at flag c on Operation Firestorm map, pulled out the rpg straight away took a quick scope shot with it, watched it sail for a direct hit on him.
wasnt anything special like a multi kill, but to see how far it flew and hit him direct on, was great. would of loved to have seen it from his angle. _________________

People really don't like teamwork, do they? I rarely see any ammo packs, and if I die next to a sniper, as an assault, they'll refuse to pick up my kit and revive me. And what's with all the snipers sitting back, not even being able to see the objective as defenders, killing people that is no help to the team? As fun as it is, I can't wait until all these newbs stop playing and people start working as a team. Oh, and about the only time I ever get revived is when I'm playing with a friend.

I dunno, I think a fair few of them will move off once Modern Warfare 3 comes out. It seems like a lot of CoD players are playing this to pass the time. It can only get better though!

If anyone gets the chance, go Assault (reasonably upgraded) with an Assault rifle of your choice, Underslung Rail attachment, and the M26 MASS shotgun in Gadget slot 1 (Dart rounds 1 hit at close range). You feel like such a badass with 2 weapons attached to each other.
Enter a street? Keep your assault rifle out. Enter an alley or corridor? Switch to your shotgun. Having it attached means you can use your scope and other attachments for both weapons, rather than just switching to your secondary. I like to use the IR Nightvision scope with the Tactical Flashlight combo. _________________

SV98, no scope, tact light, HC Mode
Stick to closed indoor environments, 1 hit wonderful. The light confuses the enemy for enough time to accurately aim before firing, you'll only come undone if you miss as it is slow to fire, until straight pull bolt that is... _________________
