Battlefield 3, its here! - Saxperience

Gabbastard · 26th October 2011, 23:37

omg etc. Totally living up to my expectations so far. Feels much better than BFBC2.

Maps seem really good, no issues with lag as yet

Visuals are excellent, and what Ive played of the campaign so far is tremendous.

My only gripe? Everyone keeps fucking off in the vehicles without me.

Best thing? You can use lock on missiles on heli's in this, instead of having to fire a stupid magnetic dart into them as they spin in a circle of death!

Sounds awesome mate, a MW3 beater?

Gabbastard · 26th October 2011, 23:44

Hard to say, not tried MW3! But I used to REALLY love CoD, then played battlefield and thought the whole experience was better. MW3 doesnt really seem to be bringing anything new to its game (though kill confirmed play type will stop camping a wee bit).

I was concerned about snipers lying prone in BF3, but a lot of people know about marking up targets, so Ive already knifed a sniper in the back of the loaf!

Played with a load of guys earlier who played totally tactically and just dominated the game start to finish. So much better (imo) than the run and gun (or run and quickscope) of CoD.

So tempted...

Gabbastard · 26th October 2011, 23:50

meant to say, with the snipers hiding as well, you get lens glare off their scope, so it makes them a bit easier to spot.

And cunts cant hide in flames anymore, the flames fuck you up

How have you got it so early?

Gabbastard · 26th October 2011, 23:57

Theres a shop in Glasgow always releases games early. As soon as they do, the Gamestation a few doors down sells it as well

karlh944 · 27th October 2011, 10:26

I want it now

jonathon5 · 27th October 2011, 11:51

I have got my BF3 & I am trading it in tomorrow, the graphics are quite simply terrible

This game is very poor compared to Medal of Honour.

I will be getting MW3 & sticking to bad company 2 instead

GolfJay · 27th October 2011, 12:56

Well, it's been decided.

Half past 11 me and the Mrs are going to fetch BF3. On top of that, she's paying!
