BF3 has been announced and i think it will be a great contender against crysis 2 Multiplayer. It seems to take verything we love about BF, 64 players, huge maps and stick it on frostbite 2.0 (fighter jet bombing run FTW). so will it be better than crysis 2 multi player? the games are very different styles with Cryteks new multiplayer aproach but what will be better?

Well... first of all I love both Crysis and Battlefield. And it's really hard to compare these 2 because we haven't even seen any Battlefield 3 footage yet. But I belive that the Battlefield 3 will have a better... much better multiplayer, on the other hand Crysis 2 singleplayer looks very promising. I belive that it will be better than the singleplayer on BF3.
Although it's really hard to say because this is very hard to say because Battlefield 2 didn't have a singleplayer at all, so I basically have no idea what kind of singleplayer BF3 has.
But this is just my opinion.

Have fun with Battlefield 3 !

BF2142 & Crysis rank amongst my favourite games.

I have heard rumours that BF3 will have a single player campaign aspect. I think that's a mistake as Battlefield is all about the multiplayer. I cannot wait for the Crysis campaign but I would say that the MP aspect of the game will not even compare to BF2142 MP never mind BF3.

BF3 has Campaign and a Coop Campaign.

battle filed is war game.And crysis 2 is fast paced game like quake 3,cod series,etc.You need high skill in war game like battlefield.You don't much need skill i crysis game.But you will have to improve your dancing skills in game to stay ahead.You will know what am I saying If you have played crysis wars.;P

Its way too early to compare BF3 to anything.. because there isnt even a real ingame trailer for it.
By the way.. The Battlefield Series are pure Multiplayer games for me ( Just like UT and Q3) so it would also be a bit unfair to compare it to a Multiplayer- part of a game that is primary a singleplayer Shooter.

Battlefield 3 over anything,everyone knows how BF2 was,crysis without the cryengine is pure ****.
Don't bring up stuff like "they're are different games" crysis 1 multiplayer was a BF wannabe and it failed without any doubt.
But i must say,honestly, that i enjoy playing crysis on high/veryhigh details,but i wouldn't be able to play it more than 5 min without the graphics,but i will still be playing any BF games on the lowest settings and i will still have a great time.
So from now on i will ask like "When Crytek releases the Cryengine 3 pc demo?"
This is just my oppinion.

@Ro1918

Maybe thats how you experienced Crysis.. but in fact the absolute majority thought it was one of the best ego shooters of the past decade.
I know that the harshest critics call Crysis just a real big tech demo... but gameplay-wise Crysis is only as good as you want it to be. It heavily depends about how you actually play the game. Because of the freedom you have to choose your style of gameplay, Crysis earned many awards in the gaming industry. Again.. consider the multiplayerpart as "bonus"- contend and not as a stand alone game.. this isnt Bad Company 2!
Crysis never was famous for its groundbreaking multiplayer part and so will be Crysis 2. Its "like i said" bonus contend to keep you playing the game even after youve finished the Singleplayer.

Well BF3 MP will destroy C2 MP, but C2 SP will destroy BF3 SP

Well, in terms of single player, I thought BC2 was terrible.
I didn't play Crysis 1.

In terms of multiplayer gameplay, and what I've played of Crysis 2 - BC3 seems like the better option (not because of vehicles/large maps).
BC2 also has what I would consider the only half-decent sounding sniper rifle in any game, ever. [M95, .50 cal]
Crysis 2 has the weakest sound effects I've ever heard in any game ever. Even the old Nintendo games had better sounds than Crysis 2.

I couldn't care less about graphics.

The final deciding verdict though was search preferences. No search preferences = no buy. Simple as that.
If the final products of BC3 and Crysis2 don't have search preferences I wont be getting either.

You cannot compare these 2
MP: 64vs12, vehicles vs no vehichles, huge maps vs small maps
SP: lone wolf vs squads/large armies. small scale/large scale

its even more faired to compare crysis 2 to COD then to BF3 and they should be able to coexist as they aim another public/offer other gameplay.

its just a matter of personal taste which will be better

Different games.Stop saying that bf3 is gonna be awesome cause if i jugde the fact that is being released on consoles then another consolized version of no recoil weapons and fail movement ,balanced classses not (medic with lmg and 4x scope ,engineer with sub machine gun 4x scope=imba) is gonna get u raging to the bf3 forums

If Crytek sticks with the 6v6 and tiny map crap, BF3 will destroy it.

battle filed is war game.And crysis 2 is fast paced game like quake 3,cod series,etc.You need high skill in war game like battlefield.You don't much need skill i crysis game.But you will have to improve your dancing skills in game to stay ahead.You will know what am I saying If you have played crysis wars.;P

lmfao completely wrong. Battlefield you have to pray you dont get stuck on a crappy team. also Crysis from what I've played are a lot more skill than CoD games due to better engine and weapon physics. Same reason it requires more skill than Bad company 2. frostbite svcks. i cant say for frosbite engine since its new but they have a lot of changes to make to make the engine itself anywhere near as good as cryengine. it will be a great game im sure but completely different. like you said , crysis is more fast paced but you're wrong about it being like quake 3 and CoD.

Crysis is on its own area

battlefield is closer to CoD games than Crysis is, just with vehicles and larger maps.

Well, so far, I see no reason to "downgrade" from Crysis Wars.

My hope for C2 Multiplayer is that cheating will get far more difficult.
In wars there were just too many shameless cheating bastardz... even with Punkbuster.

Both win. They should make Battlecry, or Cryfield D

Now I'm with Crysis 2, because Battlefield 3 is all or nothing.

Yes, BF3 promises some great things. No, this is not the first time great promises have been made.

When you look at what we have reasons to believe I get teh following:
- Graphics should be fine, they have been working on their engine in terms of radiosity and lots of light sources.
- Gameplay should be close to BF2, but there really is no way to tell if they have the right intentions or are only trying to lure PC gamers back into their franchise. I'm saying this as a former long time BF2 player, I would love them to go back to the roots somewhat. Mostly I want them to ditch the arcade feel of the Bad Company games (which I liked on consoles nontheless btw)
- Physics should be a continuation of the decent destruction system they established on consoles.

I'm liking both.

Both are stunning shooters, coming our way. Looking forward to seeing what BF3 is like and looking forward to what Crysis 2 is like.

If Crysis wants to compete with them, Frankfurt should start work on Crysis Wars 2 and ditch that UK studio.

Unfortunately, as long as hit detection, etc. is client side ( i.e. on your own computer ), there will be cheats. A guy named LongPoke taught us this. He used assembler language to "hook" all the routines in memory, and then just made them output whatever he liked. He could kill everyone on a server at once (Mass Kill) by just getting his client machine to say it had happened to the server. The server believed anything the client sent to it, so it said "oh, ok", and sent death messages to all the players. He could make anything he wanted appear on anyone's copy of the map because the server believes whatever the client sends it. That has to be addressed in this next version of the engine if we want to stop cheaters.

Still for Crysis 2.....
