Is Battlefield 3 worth it?

Hey guys, I just got a new PC and I'm running out of games to play and now I'm done with Skyrim, SR3, and AC:Revelations. Should I buy Battlefield 3? I don't mind the Singleplayer that much because I know it's all about the Multiplayer anyway.

I just want a good multiplayer game that can last long (like TF2).

Cheers for the advice guys

Easily

It's missing a bit from BF2, but if you can live without VOIP, it's a great game.

Best online shooter in my opinion.

BF2 is better and with PR it is much better.

It's great, but there are some really bad design decisions that kind of marr it for me. There's no menu, you have to use battlelog. It always has to be online even if you're playing single player. You can't change the options unless you're in-game, and if you get killed while you're looking at controls or something, it kicks you out of the menu.

Also, it's an EA game, and I try not to support them at all because they're about as close to satan as you can get when it comes to ruining gaming. But BF3 is so much fun once you get into it that it's worth supporting satan a little bit.

Yes its worth the multiplayer alone. Just try and find a clan that gets on a lot. Which btw is there anyone in a clan that plays a lot that I can join. SN: DaMann22

I'm sure if you liked past iterations of the franchise, you'll like this one - even if it is a glorified light show.

what's it missing besides that?

It's got the planes, the helicopters, the big maps, squads.

It's also missing the big maps that made BF2 special.

But granted, I remember how many people **** about BF2 back in the day and how 1942 was better. It happens with every new release.

It's a fantastic game. Amazing audio too.

Yes. One of the few MP games that doesn't get too monotous and repetitive after 30 minutes.

Hopefully it's better than the cluster**** Operation metro beta

Imo nope, its has some strong points, but dice ruined alot that made bf good

Yes, Battlefield 3 is awesome, but a little bit too realistic if you ask me.

It's missing bot matches too. And modding capability.

Borrow a copy from a friend to see if it works on your PC first.

BF3 is buggy as hell, but it's great when it works.

And destruction, more customizable weapons and vehicles, rush mode as well as other modes, and other minor things. BF3 is a great online shooter. BF2 will always be a great game and BF2142 is still probably my favorite shooter of all time, but I like to advance with new games.

There are ships but not player controlled ones. They're either spawn points or decoration. bonafidetk

darn. at least it's better than no ships. I love maps with water. Good times in BF2 sneaking onto enemies ships camping down below.

can you blow up the ships? I remember in BF1942 destroy the ships. Now that was awesome.

Honestly I enjoyed BC2 more, BF3 is just more of the same.As much as I tried, I just couldn't get into it.I get bored after like an hour of play time at most.I think I'm just getting sick of war shooters; I immensely regret buying it.

I bought the game ust to benchmark my pc. The game itself is a bad first person shooter but a decent multiplayer game.

It's pretty good, but after about 50 hours of playing I'm pretty much done with it. TF2 lasted way longer if you ask me.
