Depends if you want a arcade arena shooter or a more realistic shooter
This is all it comes down to. And I totally disagree with @AkaDemiK on the shooting mechanics. COD is air tight.(fake) and BF3 is a little bit funky(fake) but both are really good games depending on what you want. I play both and I like both, no reason both cant find an audience.
Gotta stop drinking 
they're nowhere near the same and the gameplay is totally different
I get what he trying to say and it's true to a certain extent, COD and BF are damn near the same game. It's the execution, shooting mechanics, presentation and style that makes them different systematically but at a glance they look very similar since they both are military shooters.
...only thing missing from making that game goat was prone.
