This is an early rummage of thoughts to give some people on the fence an idea of what they are getting into. Even most of the PC reviews out there have been pretty vague. I haven't cleared this 100% for the Platinum or put in 100 hours of ranking. But I have been playing Battlefield games for awhile so some early thoughts after a few hours.First off -- 200+ meg update before you can play then you're off to the races. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 was similar to Crysis, in that you could navigate the landscape the way you wanted, within an admittedly small area. Wooden huts and hideouts were for the destroying if you were so inclined. In Battlefield 3, you are literally led by the nose with little blue and red boxes on EXACTLY what to do. It's pretty insulting. Walk one foot too far this way or that way, and you are immediately...

My friends would talk to me about BFBC2 and I would say "That game looks boring, where is the action?" But got to admit, I got tired of COD, same old gun and run. I wanted something more complex. I played the BF3 beta, and damn after getting in the Metro Station, from the Operation Metro Map, and hearing the bullets, the RPG's on the edge of getting you, and the explosion all around, I got hooked up. It is so realistic, having "TurtleBeaches" or so, really helps a lot. It is intense, full of action, and really fun. For all those people saying "I get killed really fast, they are all just camping, I can't even get close to the objective, I get lost on the map 'cause is too big" Well, don't run like a noob in the middle of the street! take the long way around, be sneaky get behind them and kill them, and most important of all press the SELECT button when you see an enemy to "spot" it, as this is a team based game, your friends will...

Now it's finally here, and what do I think of it? Well you're reading so I assume you want to know. Right off the bat console owners need to accept the fact that it's not as pretty as the PC. No where close, but make no mistake, this is one gorgeous looking game. Yeah it's not as sharp or as pretty as the PC, but it still looks better than other modern warfared type of shooters out there *cough*. Graphics aren't everything though, and the gameplay and incredible multiplayer truly makes this the best shooter of the year so far. Single player is good. But much like single player modes in any FPS game for me, it served as more of a practice for multiplayer and getting used to the mechanics and setting your sensitivity and so forth than anything. The story is decent but really it's nothing groundbreaking. It's not "Bioshock" or "Uncharted... Read more |
