It's standard BF mixed with Call of Duty Black Ops shooting mechanics. People die REALLY fast and the recoil is almost nonexistent. This was my opinion from the beta of course, maybe they increased the health for retail? Ultimately if you played BF for realism then you will probably love the hell out of BF3, if you were hoping for a bit more depth to the shooting mechanics then you probably won't like it. Even though I didn't love it I'm still considering buying it because there just isn't much else to play atm. | ||

No commander, squad is like the bfbc2 i think, as for a true bf game is doesnt really compare to bf2(but then again i havent played that much of bf3 yet) its seems to be more gunplay with the whole unlocking mechanic and less focus on tactical and strategical gameplay(like i said above i haven't played all that much and when i have its been with randoms), but being a bf2 junkie i am enjoying the game so far the graphics and sounds are amazing in the game if you were even decent with shooting in bf2 you will be above avg here shooting is pretty easy and kills are easy to come by compared to bf2 | ||

You are missing out .To rankith yes this feels like a true battlefield sequel wholy shit :D | ||

Which I find total bullshit since I just want to search for multiplayer in the actual game, except I can't even get into it. Whenever I click search for multiplayer or launch campaign (from the webpage since I always get directed back to it), it says its searching than the window just goes away? Have you updated your battlelog? The battlelog is your multiplayer interface. There is no "in-game" main menu. [url blocked] Download the above (I uploaded it so it should be clean) and patch your battlelog. | ||

I installed it again just to make sure. To be a bit more descriptive, if I click play campaign a Game Manager popup comes from the bottom-left of the screen that says Initializing... I have it checked to launch game when ready. It stays like that for about 5 seconds, then just goes away. My game doesn't launch though. I installed the game on Friday and figured I would be able to play it now with no problem. | ||

Huh, that's weird. You tried reloading all of Origin and BF3? The Battlelog is buggy, but it should let you launch the game right off the bat. | ||

Says I will be finished in about 15-30min total. Way faster than any Steam or Blizzard game has ever downloaded by far. Max I've seen from either company/service is like 1-2MB/sec down. | ||

The story telling method is also pretty good, i'd say better than cod's style. + Show Spoiler + I thought it was CoD style, what with the whole "you are character being interrogated; the missions are you reliving your past" deal a la Black Ops. | ||

Yes, I just tried restarting my computer as well, and it's the same situation. This is the first game I've ever tried to play on Origin, and this is a terrible start. Wish they could have come to an agreement to get BF3 on Steam. T_T | ||
