Is battlefield 3 any good?

[Plazmatic]

No. I bought it, returned it the 3 days later. That's my opinion. Others may disagree. I finished the single player. played a bit of multi did not enjoy my experience at all. Single play had WAY to many QTE in it for a FPS. Multiplayer the guns didn't feel right, vehicle's handle like drunk rhinoceros's on unicycles. Controls are unintuitive. All in all did not enjoy the game.

Some of my friends love it and praise it as their new god. I personally did not enjoy it.

Yeah it was kind of like half life 2, in all the clunky-ness and unwieldy-ness of the controls, it was almost as bad as CODs, but I would say the vehicles are so bad that they pretty much make them on even playing fields, I mean you cant even tell were you are going half the time.

It was a bit dodgy on launch and until early this week but now the lag is gone along with some other issues. Still some problems though, crashes & graphical.

On air vehicles: if a good pilot gets behind you with the main cannon you've got one hell of a job trying to lose him, that's when you hope you've got some good anti air to lead them into or a friendly jet to come up behind him. All in all I think they've balanced out now that the unlocks are there.

I do wish they'd add more transport vehicles though. About 5 - 6 people get left to run on a 64 man server. The ability to create fresh squads would be nice too, so that you can choose who you're going with.

Its a great game if you can get over the fact that the community complains about the SMALLEST things instead of realizing all the amazing experiences they have had throughout their playing.

First few days will be a bit odd. You may not like your first day or two of multi. But once you get used to the gameplay and get an idea of what you are doing, it's really, really, really fun!

Define good. If you're looking at it from a multiplier or control standpoint, it's very good, if your looking at it from a visual or audio standpoint, it's amazing. But if what you're looking for is single player or narrative you probably wont have a good time with it.

I currently do not have nice things to say about the single player, but i am kinda hoping it's going to get better(Mostly i just think it's dissapointing)

The Multi-player is growning on me but again, i wasn't too impressed with it to start with. I don't feel there has been much improvements made to it since BC2.
