Battlefield 3 Walkthrough

Americans and Russians collide. Our Battlefield 3 Walkthrough gets you ready for the fight with info about online multiplayer, kits and equipment, and unlockable goodies.
Recon Equipment
The Recon Kit uses long range semi auto and bolt action sniper rifles. Unlike other Kits, Recon doesn't have a starting gadget but will unlock the SOFLAM and MAV to help track targets.
We prefer to make use of two different builds: the classic sniper, and a speedy scout. The sniper of course makes use of one of the many rifles and gains some extra protection from the cover specialization. Your role is to camp in the back and take down Engineers or Support soldiers that are trying to destroy friendly vehicles; with your long range scope also be sure to tag any enemy you see. Keep a magnum on you to take out any close by enemies, as your rifle isn't ideal for close quarters.
Of course you'll also wind up in many sniper vs sniper fights. In these cases take cover behind any nearby wall and quickly pop out to land a head shot. You could stay prone for better aim, but this can leave you a sitting duck for counter attacks. Alternately there is the option of standing and sprinting away, but this is a double edged sword: you mobility makes you harder to hit, but you're overall a larger target. You can take these riskier options if you have support from the rest of your squad, but if you're on your own try to be defensive.
For our scout build we combine a shotgun with the sprint specialization. Your objective with this build is to get in close and take out enemies quickly. Also, since you are a Recon your other main task is to mark enemy locations with heavy use of your SOFLAM and/or MAV. Your quick speed and tagging capabilities will make you a key asset to any teammate flying a jet or chopper.

@aminal85 L M F A O your funny. hey genius, tell me this, you ever notice that when you do your so called "cooking" that the grenade stays in your hand for an infinite amount of time - and that when you do eventually throw it - it still has the same detonation-time as if you didn't "cook" / hold the grenade button..... ever wonder why that was... here I'll tell you: BECAUSE YOU CAN'T COOK THE NADE. dont go calling people a noob when your the wrong one: scrub.
@milan4554 You can change your weapons during game and customize them. Idk what platform your playing on, but for the Xbox 360 its "x" to customize and "b" to change weapon.
@ben_ster and all the noobs that gave him a like. yes actually you can cook grenades on bf3. press the grenade button as usual, then imediately after pull and hold the trigger button to cook it.
You need to include joystick solutions. BF3's so-called PC joystick setting are for game pads. They will actually make your grunt's gun fire nonstop if your joystick is connected because of the way the "fire" button is bound. When will DICE learn to let PC devs code the PC part of the game and send the console devs back to their console worries? So, in order to get real PC joysticks to work, you have to erase (hold esc while in the box) ALL so-called joystick key bindings, then go back and key-bind your real joystick to the vehicles you wish to operate via joystick. Some commands will still be easier from the keyboard such as X for flares, etc. You may still also need to tweak the sensitivity of your devices. I changed mine yesterday and was finally able to fly the chopper without crashing - I hate flying helos/jets with a mouse. So, GS, if you could add something about this for PC BF3'ers, that would be most helpful. Thanks :)
Love B3 but the campaign was over far too quickly without enough vehicle play for me. Multiplayer far better than C.O.D
I'm new to mp. So end up with really poor k/d ratios but love the engineer class, enjoy taking out tanks and choppers. Tho next target's a plane \U0001f609. It's good that you can get points for playing a more supportive role
@ devastion913 I grabbed it on the PC to test out my new machine ^_^ so the mouse feels a bit awkward for me when flying a jet, as i'm used to consoles. Not to complan, it'll just take a little bit of work. I am finding however, that tanks can absolutely dominate with teamwork, one guy repairs and drives and the other sits on the machine gun watching for little engineers scampering around in the shadows. If you face the tank at the enemies in a choke point and repair from behind while the other guy is shooting, you can keep the tank alive almost indefinately with constant repairs. I finished a match at around 17 - 0 by doing this with some random team member who had the same idea.
@OverlordGunnar The air vehincles take some work I agree, but what platform are you playing on? On the consoles the legacy stick layout seems to be the easiest for choppers but then once you get a kill in it you have 6 Stinger missles coming your way lol. I end up playing engineer the most too, that and support, using mortars in Rush mode is too hard to resist.
Great game so far (if you ignore the campeign). I generally find myself choosing the engineer class simply because whenever i go with anything else, i find myself in desperate need of a rocket launcher, or i'll jump out of my tank and throw medkits at it before i realize what class i am, that i look like an idiot, and some a$$hole just jacked my ride =p Lag is a problem, and the maps tend to either encourage sniping or result in major rocket battles in narrow choke points which are impossible to break through (metro?). Air vehicles seem a little bit difficult to use (at least for me), has anyone else ever looked up into the sky and witnessed a deranged circus of jets and helicopters spiraling wildly out of control and colliding with one another? It seems a far cry from the terrifyingly lethal attack choppers from battlefield 2. With some practice, however, i'm sure the bar will be raised.
@shanethewolf: True I suppose, but Battlefield has never really been about the story (See Battlefield 2 and before, there were no stories or campaigns at all). DICE isn't the greatest for writing stories. This campaign disappointed me too a bit, but I moved on. Do yourself a favor and play online!
@Fandango_Letho i do attempted its alot of fun to play with your friends but only 4player squad that sucks. im a big fan of Battlefield. ive got BF 1943,BFBC1,BFBC2. sooner or later im still gonna get it back. but not right now its not worth it yet cos when MW3 you cant choose which to play and also UC3.
@jasonzilla11 It's related to Battlefield and I'm expressing my opinion, is that illegal? The lag is awful and there is no official HC mode, the quickmatch issues are currently being fixed. No, GS can't do anything about it but posting it on Battlefield hasen't done any good either as did posting anything else on other game's sites did. Look at the majority of these comments, they have nothing to do with a game guide either but I don't see you replying to them. Go sit in the corner.
@Fedorov92 Yes, I think you must be right, I just wished they made it clear the campaign is just an afterthought as I don't play games online.
@milan4554 You're entitled to your opinion, but it's obvious you played little of the game. It's pretty clear that this is not your cup of tea.
soo disappointed on Battlefield 3. what they did not do...changed nothing. 1.squad system up to 6 or 8 players 2.wouldn't let you choose or customize weapon classes during gameplay or after death 3.gameplay not balanced 4.online servers still 5hit 5.graphics similar to MOH and Bad Company 2 6.BF would never win over COD 7.RESPAWN ENTERTAINMENT TEAM the ex-Infinity Ward? employees are making FPS shooter cant wait i got it last Friday 28th then return it today.and gonna get UC3 haha
This feels more like an "interactive movie" than a game. I'm 4 stages in and I feel like I've barely had any control. And that flight mission is abysmal. Reminds me of those old CDI games with the streaming pre-rendered footage and a crosshair. Hope it picks up because I'm regretting wasting my time so far.
@nord calm down. It's not as if they hack your computer and steal your credit card number. Sometimes you need to trade inconsequential privacy for new technology. Besides, ever since the patriot act much more important private information than what settings your computer is on have been compromised.
@devastion913 And how does that connect with a guide? It's not like GS can do anything about it. Complaining on here doesn't help anything.
I want the MP7 and everyone I know either has it on PC or doesnt and wont even get it! What do I do?! I play with PS3!
I could care less about all of this I just want them to fix the lag problems and issues with the quickmatch. Also, why is there not an official hardcore game mode like in BC2? There are ranked hardcore servers but they are a pain to get in andthey vary in settings. Hardcore with a minimap is not hardcore.
@Jamejame the helicopter mission on ''hard'' give about 24k in score for each completion and it isnt hard. :p M39
Always been a huge fan of the engineer class / light-tank hybrid gamestyle. Love to fight, move guys around the battlefield, and then pop out in a safe place to repair my own ride.
How do I remove the Origin-Spyware? It is a trojan that scans my private data and sends it to EA o_O
So we have to play co-op to unlock certain weapons? About how long does it take to obtain 441,000 co-op score, because that sounds kind of agonizingly time consuming for a mode I won't play more than 10 - 20 times (even if it is quality).
I have a hard time getting all the pc controls down. You don't really have a ton of time in-game to look at your controls, so a guide on what buttons do what would be nice. For example, I had to google search how to spot on the pc, which btw is the Q key. Knowing how to switch seats in a vehicle would be nice too, so that I could switch to the turret on the humvee etc, when there are no passengers. Just little things like this that you seem to have to find out as you play can be somewhat frustrating.
OK, call me a n00b, old though I am. LOL How do you kill the guy in the cut the wire episode. He does me no matter what I try. Any help appreciated.
i'm not reading through all of it to ask this, but is this just a database or are there information given by the editors, like tips and whatnot? if it's the latter, then you definitely will need a vehicles section.
The first version of the guide is up. It will be updated in the next few days as we play more.
