Battlefield 3!

If there is anything that DICE and EA have achieved to build up the release of the new Battlefield, is the intense in game graphics shown in the game play trailers. With the trailer being in my brain for months because of this reason, but will the game have the same effect? YES! For every reason...  

Battlefield 3 has a fully-fledged single player campaign, 6 hour of predictable but intense mid-to-long distance combat pieces. Taking the roll of Sgt Blackburn and various characters, battlefield 3’s story takes you over to Iran, Paris and even New York for a brief couple of missions as the misfit squad look to foil a terrorist plot to destroy location from around the world.  

Unfortunately DICE’s lack of experience with single-player games really starts to show after a few Quick time events and over-usage of on-rail sequences slips through the cracks. Why would the developers put you in the eyes of a gunner in a jet but not let you fly it when you can in multi-player? Why they wouldn’t let you take control of the HALO jump and why can’t you take control of vehicles scattered through-out the campaign. Despite puzzling design choices, the single player campaign is and great experience......while it lasts. The disappointing point to make is the DICE places to much emphasis on the cinematic moments rather than Hollywood style set-pieces make the whole thing seem a lot more controllable. Once you’ve completed the single player campaign, players and choose to play through the online Co-op campaign, set in new maps and thin story. Completing the online campaign allows you to unlock multiplayer weapons, but there are no checkpoints along the way, making the campaign last longer.
DICE has pushed the battle moments notion with the multiplayer and battlefield.... No different!  Whether your storming Kharg , locking horns in vehicles or BASE jumping, all nine maps is built with epic moments in mind, this instalment developers have really over done themselves. It’s the combination of amazing map design, the destruction engine, huge chaos, vehicular combat ,epic battle moments,  customisability and more that  give this game it’s amazing  5 star rating and the must buy stamp of the month !
