The way we play video games is changing, they have been changing for so long that most of us have not even recognised how much of an evolution there has been. Battlefield 3 is one such game, because it’s not really ‘a’ game, it’s two separate games.
Offering such a varying experience on a multitude of separate levels, it’s almost impossible to review as a singular entity without under-minding one side over the other. So, I’ve decided to pull double (Call of) duty of this one and bring you two separate reviews… which may possibly become three depending on the co-op campaign.
Whether it comes through remakes or a new game with a similar style, DICE should aim to revive the glory days of Battlefield 3 and Bad Company 2.
hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D
You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.
This Battlefield 3 Reality Mod installation guide will show you step-by-step on how to install the new reality mod by Venice Unleashed.
Battlefield 3 Reality Mod release is now set for July 17, and we get a brand new release date trailer that brings the action and grounded gunfights.
So the 7/10 was warranted by the graphics and the destruction. Eh, as good as they were, it doesn't make up for the horrible storyline. The 5 hour mediocre campaign deserves a 5/10 at best.
Seen a few of these single player reviews for this game. Now we are making concessions to mediocrity...*sight*
Next in line, Modern Warfare 3.
If the multiplayer is where is at, then the developers should slash the price in half and sell it for what it is. But why would they do that, when people keep gobbling up these type of games every year.
honestly they should have left out the campaign and just made it an all MP affair. They also cloud have added some offline modes with bots.
Its a shooter people... I don't see why people expect there to be this massive epic storyline tied in with a FPS experience... Want a story go play an RPG or an adventure game... Anyways, I will agree with SimpleSlave, if the campaign is as useless as most people seem to say, just scrap it and go like MAG did and add more multiplayer maps/gameplay modes.
@simpleslave yes but, if i recall half-life and darkness were pretty much SP games. Thus the devs don't really have much choice but to make an epic SP. Which is why I say, games like COD and BF. People play the SP usually to get a feel, of the game (if things such as fps is new to you or you want to get those achievements/trophies). Thing is people don't give a shit about the SP, just slap on a BOT session and so be it. Like some people say its just some BS crap devs and publishers put on so they feel they can charge the costumer the full price tag. However, IF I see a game with a the graphics of, say black ops and ALL of the DLC for free and just the MP, I would pay the full price tag.. Now of course give me BF3 no SP all DLC for free and hell I'll pay the entire thing once again.
Personally this is total b.s I love my SP campaigns, but when I get a FPS game the campaign is not what i look forward to in the game.
EDIT: sorry i thought i hit reply my bad simple slave...
