And the number of official servers is dwindling.

Yeah, I was reading about it recently myself. I think there were only like 17 official servers left or something and that's just EA. I don't think there are ANY DICE.

I think there was a Q and A with the DICE global community manager and I think they're going to do something about it:

Oh and I forgot to say Turbo, it might be a bit off topic but they are finally supposed to be fixing the controls for good so you might want to check the game out around the end of the month after the patch.

I might look into renting it or something, but I feel like I'd be getting it too late in the game, so to speak.  And like Jabba said, Awesomenauts should keep me occupied for a while.

About being too late, not really. Unless you're worried about having prestige you get most of the unlocks you need within a few hours.

I meant more along the lines of skill.  It'll be an uphill climb for me, just like BC2 was, and I don't have that much time to dedicate to another game.

As far as skill goes, you can be as weak as they come but if you hang with a good squad they make you good, even if for just one round. I know it sounds like the usual Battlefield propaganda but it's more true in BF3 that it ever was in BC2.

Anyway, they have content coming out for the next year or so there's going to be more opportunity to join down the line should you decide you want to. It really seems they want to improve the game they have now and support it for quite a while. We might not see another Battlefield game in quite a while

RAndoms? Not many but you'd be impying I meant that your squad would be composed of random people.

Well, yeah. I'm hardly on when anyone else is on, but I'm on a lot. You're never going to find people playing the objective in BF3 unless you invited them.
