“We shipped Battlefield 3, which we should be slapped for, with probably the worst set ups ever,” Gustavsson said.
“As a pilot, you had to fly your plane and only kill other planes with your cannons. You didn’t have any counter-measures; you didn’t have any missiles. And that’s basically for the best of the best pilots; that’s what they should do to show their skills. [As a beginner], you should have counter-measures, you should have heat-seeking missiles to give you a smooth ride into the game and then from there on you should customise.
“So that’s what we’ve tried to do; the full set-ups are supposed to be quite easy to learn and to master, and from there you can start unlocking things and seeing what your preferred setup is. So, a lot of learning from Battlefield 3 have gone into making the game.”

Undoubtedly, the vehicle unlocks were a huge negative as far as the unlocking system went in BF3. If you were even a month or two late to the game, you may as well not even bother with a vehicle because everyone else already had a ton of unlocks at their disposal.

They had another article a few weeks back saying how something else wasnt good in BF3.
Which irritates me because this is the same group that said they "Nailed It!" with BF3.
Dont get me wrong, I love BF3 and I understand marketing, but really?
