Good, Bad, Ugly.

Xbox 360!!

BAD
If you really want to spend your money please save it trust me.
- Horrible graphics not to mention its 2011
- Smart is not Smart. You have to tap the button for it just to work.
- Graphics frame rate is horrible. If you stop its alright, but if you move it still horrible.
The update did nothing, I thought this game looked good but good = horrible in their eyes.. Don't be surprised Please the Dev. hyped this game and its over rated.
- The moving around is bad, you don't even know if the smart system works..
- Level up to fast.
- Campaign is not Campaign its nothing special I didn't even understand it.
- The in game graphics look nothing like the game. Really receptive fast, you do the same thing over an over an over..

Good
- Characters Awesome.
- Weapons Awesome.
- Music Awesome
- In game Audio Awesome
- Controls was Awesome make it whatever you want.
- 1-8 coop.
- Concept was Amazing but was nothing compared to want this game is.
- Teamwork

Ugly
-Not $60. Not even close if it was 15 - 20 bucks then yes.
-Its just not good even though I wanted it to be good. Bought it now returning it.
- The title screen looked great but over the graphics are horrible.
-The game play is bad not smooth at all.

Overall, the only thing this game has is a great cover. I cant wait for Battlefield 3 to crush gay ass COD.

This was my brother and I being completely honest.

I guess proofreading and proper grammar aren't highly looked upon in Ohio, huh?

Would have been nice if you could have elaborated some more, but I guess that's too much of a challenge for two people.
That shouldn't surprise me after reading this little nugget of info, "Campaign is not Campaign its nothing special I didn't even understand it. "

I'll go through tick by tick and show you how my opinion differs from yours...just remember that a lot of people are NOT looking for a remake of a popular FPS franchise *ahem*

- Horrible graphics not to mention its 2011


What system did you play it on? XBox is supposed to get (already have gotten?) a patch to remedy the texture pop-in. LOSTCALI has said that the PS3 looks great, and I have found little to complain about on my PC.

- Smart is not Smart. You have to tap the button for it just to work.


I don't understand this...it was always intended to be this way. SMART is not supposed to take over for you no matter what, only when you want it to - hence the button pushing. The game doesn't aim for you does it? it doesn't interact with teammates or objectives for you does it? Like I said, I don't get this.

- Graphics frame rate is horrible. If you stop its alright, but if you move it still horrible.


Again, what system are you playing on? If its PC make sure you have the min specs and appropriate settings...wouldn't hurt to update your drivers as well.

The update did nothing, I thought this game looked good but good = horrible in their eyes.. Don't be surprised Please the Dev. hyped this game and its over rated.


To be honest, this game was NOT hyped that much. Perhaps to those of us who pay attention or who have been aware of it for a while it seemed to get more publicity in the last few weeks, but it is NOT on par with some of the blockbuster titles that come out.

- The moving around is bad, you don't even know if the smart system works..


I'm not sure what you are referring to. You need to hold down the button as you approach things in order for the SMART system to be fully utilized. Also be aware that body type plays into what you can do (only Light Body types can wall jump, etc.).

- Level up to fast.


The focus was never on the leveling up, but on the objective team-based multiplayer.

- Campaign is not Campaign its nothing special I didn't even understand it.


The campaign missions were designed to fit seemlessly with the multiplayer and the co-op. I find it awesome that we can have 8 person co-op missions against bots, or 8v8 multiplayer doing mission objectives. The real difference is Solo v. Multiplayer, not Campaign vs. Multiplayer.

- The in game graphics look nothing like the game. Really receptive fast, you do the same thing over an over an over..


I don't - wha - hrmm.....Perhaps you mean the trailers don't look like the game? It gets repetitive fast? I don't know. Repetition shouldn't be a problem as you can be paired with different people each game. Really, is it much different than playing a rotation of matches on other servers? I used to play Rainbow Six: Vegas Attack & Defend on the Casino OVER AND OVER AND OVER. If you don't like repetitive, then I think you are looking for another genre...

Don't waste your money that simple. I had high hopes for this game but I am now returning it.
Everything was on the xbox 360 I got the patch played online and it just was not good.

Im glad I didn't buy this yet. I might buy it later and maybe if you really don't like this game trade it in or buy Homefront I know all the reviews are bad but the MP is great and all of the patches are out so buy it now.

And also +1 for BF3 to crush COD

I predict:

It is the year 2011. November. Where we are? We're on a boat! No wait, we are in the Battlefield 3 forums. To be more exact, in a thread which titles "Good, Bad, Ugly".

Here begins our story ... again.

I know game videos caaaan be misleading... But I just saw a live streaming of a guy playing Brink on the pc. If you think that that is PS2 graphics then I just don't know what to say... Are you blind?

I saw a screenshot with 1920x1080 4xAA 16xAF, but there seems to be no shadow for characters (At least not obvious) and full of alias.
But I somehow think that guy is trolling in forums. That's why I want to see more. Cheers,

Sure, but I'm afraid you will have to wait for a bit. I'm at work and I usually don't get on to play until later in the evening...though I'm thinking of taking an extended lunch break... :wink_smile:

from what i have seen of the pc the graphics look great, im sure it was just your pc since there has been no other complains about graphics(besides the xbox bug). And if its really that bad of a game what are you doing here??? looking for attention? Have you nothing better to do than post the same thing over and over in the same thread.

get a life....

I didn't pay much attention to the shadows, I only watched very briefly because the stream was pretty laggy. Anyway the game looked gorgeous to me, love the art direction.

A breath of fresh air is always welcome, stale air isn't. I'm sure the community, SD and Bethesda will get along just fine in your PERMENANT absence. COHERENT opinions do help people when deciding wether to purchase or not, but your "review" falls short of making sense. If you'd like people to ever take your opinion seriously, being able to communicate it effectively would be the first hurdle to overcome. Otherwise people with a modicum of education will dismiss it just like I did. Hockeybeard did a good job of describing the flaws in your logic and why your "review" was more just a biased opinion. Reviews are supposed to be approached in the same way a journalist would use his/her OBJECTIVITY and inform consumers what the product is. Not how they feel about it. Like or dislike a game, what do I care how you feel about it? When your statements aren't littered with your opinions, they fall into the category of incoherent drivel. Your "review" may have been in posted in good faith, but intentions and actions are two seperate things.
