Luckily a downed player can crawl backwards towards their friend or into cover for revival. The game does put the carrot on the stick for you though, offering three difficulty levels and a scoring system to encourage replays. Battlefield 3 has given itself a bit of a conundrum. I can easily see the campaign being popular for most gamers, it uses a formula that sells and people have been eating that up. That said, a lot of us have moved past that and have gotten bored with it. If you buy it for either of the other included modes, the game falls short.
There were sections where I was killed during one attempt and made it through without a scratch on the second—and I'm not sure what I did differently to survive.
By the time the game introduces jets, you're ready for something interesting, but the game doesn't let you fly. You just aim and fire. If you want to actually become a pilot, you need to play the multiplayer portion of the game. It would have been interesting if DICE used the single-player portion of the game to introduce you to the concepts and vehicles of the multiplayer game, but that idea must have been thrown out in favor of stripping control from the player in order to ape Call of Duty and create something that tries to remind you over and over how important it is.
All these shortcomings add up to create an experience that may be amazing visually, but offers very little in terms of fun. Everything is heavily scripted, and you need to follow that script if you'd like to make it to the next section.
The multiplayer sections of the game reward quick thinking and improvisation, but the single-player campaign doesn't want you thinking for yourself; your job is to show up, hit the buttons when the game tells you, and marvel at the scenery. We'll be playing the multiplayer over the next few days to prepare for a larger review that deals with that aspect of the game, but no one should be buying BF3 in order to play the single-player game.
It's okay that it's there, and there are a few exciting moments, but I walked away from the game three hours into the six-hour or so campaign because I was getting tired of being told what to do. I'm not sure why DICE got rid of everything that made their game so special in order to try to one-up Call of Duty , but the result is a joyless but pretty game of "me too" that's best avoided.
The graphics are, to put it bluntly, amazing. I was able to run the game with the Ultra settings on our review rig at between 50 and 60 frames per second, and there's nothing on the market that can touch the Frostbite 2 engine right now in terms of sheer visual spectacle.
