Aperently critics only gave battlefield 3 a 7 out of 10. Now this is coming from one of the biggest COD fanboys on the forums, maybe even the damn world... but that was underrated. I havent played it yet but planing on renting it. I would have alteast gived it a 8.5 from the gameplay I have seen so far. I mean seriously I couldn't tell witch was IRL in the damn TV trailer! Dont belive it only got 7/10? http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/battlefield-3 http://www.gamefly.com/game/xbox-360/Ba ... -3/146610/
I agree with you. I was forced to buy it for the PS3, I didn't want to waste my money when it wouldn't run on a PC. Medal of Honor only ran at a decent 20 FPS.
Yeah… a 7 out of 10 seems too low IMO. The campaign was very short and in some cases just felt like you're in a quicktime event, but I thought it was decent. As for the multiplayer, I'm loving it. I have it for the 360 (I wish I could have got it for the PC, but all my friends are on the Xbox) and it runs smooth, the weapons aren't to hard to use yet one can't just hold down the trigger to get mid to long range kills. Your character actually reloads properly, and select fire is finally back, which I really like because it adds more realism to the game and a really effective tool at your disposal. So far weapon and vehicle balance seems fine, and most of the maps are fun to play on. However, it is no COD killer (as it was advertised), it just doesn't bring in the same crowd - and it shouldn't because it's a Battlefield game, even though it is faster paced than games in the past, which I really enjoy. [On a side note I am not hating on Call of Duty, I actually really love the multiplayer. And I also really love the Battlefield series (FPS wise I actually grew up on COD, Battlefield, and Halo - and I like all three of those series).]
If you got Xboxlive or internet to play multiplayer I suggest battlefield 3. If you want realism you should get that game but there are ALOT of quick time events. If you like a solid singleplayer and dont use multiplayer COD should be nice. But its not that realistic but if you want just to have a game that sorta resembles modern combat I suggest COD. I am not like a bot or anything but I suggest you rent Battlefield 3 since it is out already from like gamefly or blockbuster. Then when MW3 comes out in like 8 or 9 days you can rent that. I think 8 days should be enough to finish it. Anyhow its all a matter of what your looking for.
I would definitely give BF3 atleast a 9/10 and say it's the best shooter of 2011. I haven't played a better shooter since 2007 when Call of Duty 4 came out. We'll see if BF3 is gonna last for a few more years or if it'll get boring in a few months, but I highly doubt the latter. I have the game for PC also I may add since I don't have a console and I want to be able to enjoy the full experience (64 players etc).
just read this... lol no, don't get BF3 if you're looking for realism because BF3 is as unrealistic as CoD (not in a bad way but your statement is just silly)
I dont get you, first you hate me for being a COD fan, then you are bitchin at me for liking battlefield... make up your damn mind.
How I would rate BF3 Singleplayer: 6/10 Multiplayer: 9.9/10 I do get a bit annoyed when game reviewers give scores that I think are too high or too low, but you've just got to remember that he or she is entitled to his or her opinion. When they give a game a random score and don't give a solid reason why, or when the written review doesn't seem to match up with the score, then I get MAD! *cough*ign*cough*
Of course, its among the best ways to gauge whether or not the game is worth your time and money. I wish I could instantly obtain every game and play it through to know whether or not I will enjoy it, but I cant.
It should've got at least an 8/10 Singleplayer is a bit lame but solid'ish. Multiplayer is phenomenal, nuff said.
