I know people that have just brought a game because it's got a lot of modding potential an other who have braught a game just becaus some of the mods look great. So if most average normal human beings can reconise this so does that mean EA is an race that is not human?
I think this would explaim alot
hence why EA/DICE made such a big deal about how they where going to make BF2 so "modder friendly" cos BF1942 they didn't even think about mods when they made it, they only really thought about how good it would be after it was released after seeing so many mods come out, then they started to support them. So they where going to go with that rout with BF2, and at the start, they did, but after BF2 was released, they saw how "buggy" the editor was and they saw how hard it was for BF2 to be modded, they went with a change of plan and to simply stop focusing on mods and instead they focused on the xpacks, bf2142 but more importantly in this case there "booster packs" where there replacements for the mods which they thought they could make more money off than mod teams.
So ye, I think BF3 will have even less mod support than BF2...

except EuroForce (or whatever it was called) was megafail even by EAs standards. I think they lost money on that so they might think twice about releasing ultra-shit add ons again. Even the fanbois realised Armoured Fury was a total cash-in!
...unfortunately EA will be pleased at all the people that bought SF for the guns to use in vanilla, and I think there will be more pay to unlock l33t stuff in the future....

afaik they hired mod teams to do the booster packs, thou I dunno what teams, none of the teams that make mods for PR anyways.

The thing that really bugs me about that model is the nose. Seriously, even glancing at the CR2 would have helped.
