Papa Sasac 164 Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Gonna give this a miss for now. Splinter Cell and Crysis are keeping me busy at the minute, and I'll pick up Uncharted. Might get this after Christmas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueAndWhite 37 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 It's receiving some really poor (compared to expectations) reviews.Around 83% on Metacritic and Gamerankings, and that value will most likely drop a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a multiplayer game to be fair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAndWhite 37 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 The reviews incorporate multiplayer I'm sure, or else CoD games wouldn't score so highly.I played the Beta and wasn't a fan at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don81 2,837 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Loving it, except I keep meleeing instead of throwing a grenade , must be using killzone controls. Always someone there to shoot me when I do it as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBearAl 15 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Fired this up last night and I was not disappointed. You feel like you are actually in a warzone with bullets flying around everywhere and the scenery being blown to shit. Add to this every vehicle under the sun from speedboats, helicopters and jets and you can see the range of tactics you could employ. I can see why people would hate this as its not COD where the killstreaks and kill/death ratios matter. On this you get points for healing your squadmates or for spotting the enemy. You have to work as a TEAM....not run around blindly shooting or camping in a bush sniping. Running around aimlessly usually results in certain death.Don't get me wrong, I'm not a COD hater, they are just totally different games. COD is a more pick up and play straightforward shooter, BF3 is more tactical and squad based.We will need to get a RM Battlefield clan up and running as I think this is going to keep me off FIFA. I think the reviews in the high 80's have definately taken the ropey single player campaign into account, trust me the multiplayer is like a different game, amazing.

elgo 0 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 shouldnt we have a battlefield 3 thread instead of the beta one since its out now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
justingee 9 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I agree someone needs to start a Battlefield 3 thread and clan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HashPizza 198 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Having so much fun playing this! I am frickin' awesome in the helis, getting so many kills its unreal! Sniping is also a favourite for myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gash07 26 Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 Maps are so huge it favours a sniper rifle in my opinion. I'm usually cod loyal but tried this for the first time after the last few cod disappointments. I'm enjoying it. Very realistic.Im totally useless at flying anything, crash and burn and Still getting to grip with the intricacies of the game, like the hud and game objectives. I think it's obvious though that once I'm up to speed this is going to be an awesome awesome game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelle1880 225 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Loving it, hands down one of the best shooters I've ever played. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblue1872 2 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 It's unreal on the PC. Graphics are stunning and the sound is just jaw dropping at times. 64 player maps are just the biz. Only thing that is a let down is that i seem to get booted from a map after about 1 and a half rounds. Its doing my nut it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
