DO NOT GET ME WRONGI’ve had my fair share of COD and BF3 and comparing them, like most of the other reviews, is like comparing Macs to PCs.So without any bias, here we goPros:The frostbite engine and motion controls are brilliantOnline gaming is definitely diverse, no two matches feel the same (depends on how you play though). Multiplayer will keep you occupied for a very long time, levelling up is fun, though some guns are definitely overpoweredCons:The campaign is fairly short and not very climatic. As one reviewer aptly describes most modern FPS games, the developers create a movie in which you have no control. If you don’t do exactly as they say (press a button, shoot that guy in time, move to that position) there’s no advancing in the game at all. It’s the same for all modern games, and it’s annoying for single playerConclusion: If you’re looking for a new single player feel, look elsewhere. If you want hours of fun and frustration online, this is the game you want
Battelfield 3 takes realistic first person shooters to a whole new level. This game has the most realistic graphics and the lighting element and blinding effects between the sun, laser sight and flash light are unparallel to any other game out there. The effects of gravity on the bullet make sniping a challenge, but a fun one at that. Sniping up to 1,200 meters in several levels takes advanced calculations. With accuracy of bullets and targets on other players, you can come very close to hitting your target and still miss. The game is as realistic as you will get.
This game is great all around, and only has a few minor flaws, but you can’t ever find a perfect game anymore.Campaign The games campaign is pretty good. The storyline is full of great cutscenes and adrenaline-pumping gunfights. The missions all beginning with Blackburn, a US marine accused of killing a fellow soldier in order to stop an "enemy" Russian from being detained. Levels begin with a little background, and then the recall of Blackburn’s memories on the battlefield. Much like Call of Duty: Black Ops.Co-Op Coooperative gameplay is a new feature in BF3. This mode lets you slay badguys along with a combat buddy over the Internet. This mode has around 7-8 maps that missions vary on. This mode also allows you to unlock exclusive weapons by leveling up through the Co-Op missions. Each mission brings around 10-12k xp, and that is shared between you and your colleague. The guns aren’t easily acquired though. The first weapon is unlocked after 60k of experience. These weapons can be then used in any loadout in Multiplayer.Multiplayer Easily the best feature of BF3, the multiplayer rocks. Maps are plentiful, and so is the raw action. The realism is back.Also, all the guns (unlike most all CoDs) are balanced, and no OP guns are really present. Vehicles are alittle hard to get used to, but are a HUGE asset to gaining xp when you can master them. I would also reccomend purchasing Battlefield Premium to get all the future DLCs and weapons for a fraction of what they wou.
At this moment, Battlefield 3 has been experiencing some server issues on the Xbox side. The same thing happened the first week after Bad Company 2 was released and once patched, that game had little network issues anymore. With that I am basing my review on the game itself and not releases-week network issues like everybody else seems to be doing.The single player wasn’t really expected. Battlefield has always been multiplayer only, so a single player mission is simply icing on the cake. Sure the SP portion of the game obviously doesn’t get the attention the MP does, but it didn’t need to. If you bought Battlefield 3 specifically for it’s single player campaign, then you just wasted your money. I am not even going to dive into it too much as it is not the main treat in the Battlefield 3 bag.Basically you are a soldier who is being interrogated for some atrocities that have been committed. Your character, Blackburn, tells the story of what happened, and thus the game begins and puts us in his shoes from earlier. Each chapter returns to the interrogation room where you find out more and more what is going on. You then start to play chapters as other characters in the unwinding plot. The graphics in the SP campaign are phenomenal for the Xbox. They really did a great job with lighting and building damage even though they were limited by the hardware. Much of the game takes place at night so you really get a visual treat when explosions go off and firefights are happening. Most.
Overall this game is a masterpiece and a blast to play. The amount of unlockables is one factor that keeps one playing; besides the entertainment and fun it will provide you with. There’s a variety of maps to play on (some dark and some sunny; some close combat and some open and free), and the vehicles that help you traverse them are realistic, yet easy and fun to use; especially with a teammate along your side. I have not played the single player, however, as I have been having too much fun playing the multiplayer; therefore, I can not provide a ranking on that (I’ve heard it was a short but ok campaign). Although, in the end, the main purpose for a battlefield game was the multiplayer; the campaign is just something extra. I’d recommend this to any semi-casual to hardcore gamer who wants to have a blast doing everything involved in the military.Also, I do realize there exists a few bugs in the launched game, but I don’t feel they detract from the overall experience of it and DICE will most likely be producing a patch for the problems anyways.
I’m no expert at writing reviews and there’s nothing I can say about this game that hasn’t already been said, so I’m only making this review because the game deserves a better score that it has received. This game has been spot-on in every aspect. The single-player was playable, and fun for what it was, but there was no real magic to it. So what. What military based FPS focuses on great single-player? None, not even Call of Duty. The people who say otherwise are either payed off for their reviews, easily entertained, or deficient in games other than Call of Duty.Multiplayer (and Co-Op) is where it’s really at, and in my experience with this game, it’s flawless across the board. This is Battlefield, it’s everything you’d expect Battlefield to be, and maybe even a little more. I feel a lot of the people who gave this game poor reviews were either misinformed, biased fanboys, or just simply trolling. The servers had maintenance problems the first few days. Big deal. I expected that, but I also expected for the problems to be sorted out and they have been, and I’ve been enjoying every aspect of the multiplayer since. I’d rather it be broken for a couple days then flawlessly work afterwards, all the way up until the next Battlefield installment (but hopefully not yearly installments, I prefer quality-based games, not quantity-based.)The biggest problem with Battlefield for a lot of people is this: it is not simplicity-based gameplay. A 12-year-old is not exepected, hell, a 40-year.
Good quality and a very good price
This game is entertaining and fun, coming from a casual gamer. The campaign mode was extremely short, as most FPS games are these days, with the majority of the action focused on the online multiplayer or co-op modes. I have had plenty of fun with this game, however, and would recommend it for anyone who likes this genre. As with a lot of the online games, however, it can be a bit frustrating if you aren’t hard core and game for days on end. There are people who do nothing but game and have now unlocked all the weapons that still play on the easy levels and keep the new/inexperienced players from getting very far. This would be my major complaint about the game. I think the multiplayer mode’s easy level should be restricted to only those players of low rank with few weapons unlocked. Give us casual gamers the chance to build up some skill before being confronted with the all-day gamers with all the weapons unlocked.
I have played Battlefield 3 for only 3 days now, and I can’t quite come to a full conclusion, but it’s a fun game. Less frustrating than Call of Duty, more intimate and ever-expanding. Much more accessible in my opinion. The multiplayer is pretty much the heart of the game though (not that I was expecting the campaign to be that good anyways, I only usually expect that from single-player-only games), and although there may be some server issues I’m sure they will get fixed in the very close future. I’m loving the gamepley. I’m loving the game. It’s fun, what else does it need to be? Is it the best game ever? No. But is it the best Battlefied? Sure.
I’ve played a fair amount of online shooters – Rainbow Six, Halo, CoD, etc. I had a buddy that talked me into picking up Battlefield 3. I have to say, this game blows the rest out of the water.What is great about Battlefield is that the multiplayer is very team orientated. So during the early learning / ramp up phase as you’re getting to know the mechanics, maps and guns you can still contribute to your team and quickly level up by supporting them in various ways. Add to that large maps, destructible environments, and vehicular combat.Battlefield also has great stat keeping – either through the build in battlelog or sites like bf3stats.com. It’s fun tracking your progress through new unlocks as well as seeing where you rate in the world for various weapons and vehicles.Finally the DLC is great. I’d purchased previous CoD DLC where you get a few new maps. With Battlefield not only do you get new maps but you get new assignments, weapons, vehicles, and game types. There’s a lot of value both in the base product and the DLC – something that’s not common anymore these days. Also they put out regular updates to patch bugs and balance the game better. That might be the sole bad thing as these can get quite large (several GB each) for the console – so if you don’t have a large hard drive it can cause an issue.I’d highly recommend this game and I’m looking forward towards the next installment.
