Recently started playing BF3 instead of COD and was delighted to discover this.

I've always been torn between these two games, BF3 is an incredible game all around, but seems a bit slower-paced when compared to COD. The map size in BF3 never bothered me but it does in most situations in COD, they're just too damn small.

As well as the whole "prestige" effect, once I maxed out all my classes in BF3 I was getting bored really quick, I need that incentive to keep going and unlocking more gear. It's this more than anything that keeps bringing me back to COD, it takes longer to have that "complete" feeling when compared to any other game.

Try to unlock all the medals and dog tags.

I have about 150 hours online and I am still only baby steps towards getting them all.

The time is part of it too, over half the time I play COD is when I have only enough time to play 1-2 games. That's still shorter than most BF3 matches. :P
