So, EA is making Battlefield 3 obsolete before it's even been out for a year, despite the fact that they've got a year's worth DLC yet to release. I was already uninterested in Premium, and now I'm even less enthused. The only way this is going to work is if there is a LOT of overlap in both Premium and BF3/4 DLC. Between all this crap and having to deal with Origin, I'm thinking of swearing off EA for awhile.

Battlefield 3 and CS aren't as big as SC2, LoL, and or fighting games. Back in the day CS was great and i hope CS:GO will bring shooters back to the spot light. Battlefield 3 is a Esport but where do you see it in the sport light like SC2 and LoL?
As an avid Battlefield 3 player ( casually, but a lot ) I just don't see how it can be truly good as a spectator sport. I understand playing it competitively, but I don't think its something people really want to sit down and watch. "Just another FPS" with some fun gameplay but hardly a spectator sport.
they have a 32v32 tournament going on at 21cwforums.com, very organized and they have been around for 10 years doing it. I will be streaming it from an outside PoV, sad part is they dont give the Esports world in Battlefield 3 and other games the tools for it to be fun to watch. I have to do a gun glitch and remove the hud to get a clear PoV. If companies that made FPS games started to make games for Esports and not just money FPS games would be great to watch. Give the community the tools they need and we will build it.
