The only real difference is that the new one takes it a step further with user integration instead of just being a shell needed to run the game. For the end user it doesn't really mean anything (unless they want to use the extra features) if they were part of the crowd that used the legal download solution of previous EA games.
As I said, there really isn't that large difference between this and a server browser in how one would use it. All-Seeing Eye was such a tool for many older games before such things got usefully integrated. Difference being you have to have it running to get it to work at all instead of just getting it to work good. See it as another version of steam if you want to. What annoyed me the most was having to install a browser plugin to use the server browser site.

I'm gonna be getting BF3 on the PS3 anyways. I know the majority of people will be getting it for PC... but I want a healthy community because (in secret)... I want BF3 to beat MW3. :P

Now if they scale down the console versions, I will not be surprised that we don't have jets... >.>

If we can fly jets then that would be orgasmic... just like BF2!

By the look of the new Caspian Border video, that playable map IS HUGE. I would say it's a good square 16 miles. Then again, those jets are not really flying as fast as they should, but DAMN did it look fun. My used vehicle (which I will wait for at a base) will definitely be the helicopter though. I'm just hoping the console versions get the same vehicles/map sizes/etc. as the PC version. I understand that it's only 24 players, just the same everything else would be lovely. Cause honestly, 64 players means that 40-48 of those players will not have vehicles while in the console version... there will be 2 people in jets, 1 in helicopter, 2 in tanks... and the rest are either in the secondary spots OR on foot. It'll strike a nice balance unless the PC version with 32-64 players will have more vehicles than just the 5 on each side.
Did anyone see this video? Best shot ever taken.
EDIT: PS3 Co-Op video
Yes, it has those really nice water reflections, shadows, muzzle flashes, and thermal scopes all on PS3. There is Co-Op, great vehicular multiplayer, a single player campaign... if this game ends up having a survival mode... I don't really see a need to buy MW3.
