    I tried to play it recently but it's a very old game now. It may have been one of the most successful games of its time, but it's impossible to play now. Graphics may be dated, but the story in the single player campaign was pretty bad.

    Battlefield 3 is the best Battlefield game so far. Graphics are still insane in 2023 and bf3 is still playable after 10 years.

    This game has one of the best single-player fps campaigns ever made. Every single mission is so fun and cinematic. My favourite has to be "Going Hunting" since it is so fun and I love how the music is implemented. The only mission I didn't like was "Operation Guillotine" since it was just standard boots on the ground but i understand why since it is integral to the game's story.

    What a bummer Dice could not capture the magnificence of Battlefield ever again after 3, 4 and 1 because this series was the ULTIMATE online war shooter experience of all time.

    The game is very good...but in team play it lacks the level of the players and is unfair in it...but it is very good in the style of play and it is very realistic and this is a very good touch for the game

    Besides the general look of the game graphics, sounds, and whatnot. the game play falls short from the previous titles. played Bad company 2 for 500+ hours, BF3 for 700 hours, and this game for 80 hours and I'm already sick of it. Multiplayer is rage inducing experience nothing will works out the way you think it would. spawn camping seems easier on this one than other ones, and the maps… Expa

    I come to rush a script-spawned location just to get stabbed by a clown that nobody tries to kill, because why? The squadmates are there to pretend that I am not alone and sometimes they even deal damage with random hits. That was too much stupidity for me so I dropped the game right at the beginning.

    I played BF3 on the Xbox 360 through backwards compatibility. And the multiplayer servers are still alive, it’s it’s not many people play the co-op missions anymore. The campaign is pretty short but sweet! The multiplayer is the best part, it’s pretty hard to get into and new players will match with pros, but it’s actually really simple!

    Battlefield 3 - War against terrorists.

    So I played single player and was very surprised by the details and realism of the game. The levels of the game are directly impressive with interesting missions and war details, the game has a very good realism about war and game details. I really enjoyed the game having a very structured communication between the soldiers and the communication center, it was fun to listen to how they communicate, strategic words and characters, the game felt very realistic. The atmosphere of the game is directly impressive with cool details, in each level that atmosphere is very satisfying and cleverly done. The story of the game is very simple and interesting as America war against terrorists and their leaders, and you try to stop the terrorist attacks with your team. Voice - actors did an impressive job, I enjoyed it. The game itself has an amazing event with certain events, I don't want to say. The game has fantastic weapon mechanics, they feel as strong as real weapons. Personally, the game didn’t give that much time to get used to your team’s characters and others.

    As for the minus of the game, I played the game on Hard difficulty and noticed a few things that made me nervous that the hardness of the game is very poorly optimized as if the enemies have a very good aim 100%, and I died many times for example: enemy shoot me when I was hiding in spot where you can't shoot through the things as big rock. The game has quite bugs. Some cutscenes face acting look's kinda cringe. And the music in the game didn’t really involve me in the action, there wasn’t much of that music at all, sometimes xD.

    So the game is really impressive with a realistic war atmosphere and details, has a few downsides. I would rate this game 9/10. Multiplayer good too!    … Expand

    Still remains the best Battlefield game to this day, DICE really nailed it when this one came out, neat campaign, great multiplayer and a ok-ish coop mode. Sadly after Battlefield 4 the franchise has gone down and down for the most part.

    10 years later, Battlefield 3 still holds up tremendously well. There aren't as many active servers, but there's still just enough to enjoy the core game modes and maps. It's still a pretty impressive game graphically and in its scale. The only downsides now are that the servers aren't quite as active as they used to be, and game progression takes a lot of grinding.

    Of all the BF games, there are only three (BF2, BF3, BFBC2) that have a good case for being the best in the franchise, with BF3 having the most convincing case.

Amazing how I'm able to play this game as recently as today and enjoy it as much as I did back in 2012.

    Among FPS titles, Battlefield 3 still stands as one of the greatest multiplayer experiences ever by having no competitor titles being willing or able to deliver on the same scale. Realistically, I would give this game a 92/100 due to the mediocre singleplayer and co-op but the multiplayer is 95% of the reason why people play it. In conclusion: BF3 was the 2011 shooter of the year and 2nd best shooter of the 2010s after Bioshock Infinite.    … Expand

    While Battlefield 3 may be to this day a fun shooter with a somewhat aged but still responsive and intriguing gun play, It is in my opinion overall not the best choice anymore, when it comes to Singleplayer shooters. The story, while not super important, is somewhat simple and nothing to set focus on, but considering that most games like Battlefield and Call of duty have a higher focus on gameplay, rather than story telling, it is admittedly nothing I would judge the game on too harshly. I just wish to mention that point, since there will be lots of people who seek to play a fun shooter, with a focus grabing story. Beyond that as already mentioned the gun play is solid and works well enough despite feeling somewhat aged, but the overall game feels too easy, making you focus less on actually utilizing the gun play or to try to play as tactical as possible, but rather makes you want to just run through the game, while spraying aimlessly towards the enemy, because you can. This may sound as a weird critique at first, but having played this game on hard difficulty and still having no problem whatsoever, makes this game not feel like you are in constant danger, having to play as tactical as possible, or else you will be in trouble, but rather it makes you feel like you are in a nerf battle. Also worth mentioning are the bugs. While there may not be any game breaking bugs in there, they are certainly still noticeable and in some cases even quite annoying. Less noticeable bugs would be your allies standing inside objects or even straight up running in and out of walls, but those that are more annoying are when you get stuck inside an ally, or try to run down the stairs, but get stuck on nothing, or you have to interact with a character, but he won't respond, so you have to die in order to go back to last checkpoint in order to finally progress. Worst bug of them all though was one, where my whole game at one point randomly set it's difficulty to normal, which may not be a problem, if it weren't for the fact that in order to change difficulty back you have to replay a mission or rather in my case, replay the whole game. I looked up the bug btw and I found out, that I am indeed not the only one that had to deal with this bug and those that did already had to deal with it back in 2011, when the game came out, making this somewhat inexcusable to be still in the game. When it comes to graphics though, I do have to admit that it does indeed holds up to this day quite well. Yes it does look aged in some parts and you can sometimes see, that this game is almost 10 years old, but overall it certainly does look great and certainly will still look great in the future, though I believe that a game does not need to have the best or rather most realistic looks possible in order to be enjoyable. The sound design though, while the background sound is ok and serves it's purpose, the gun sound definitely does hold up fantastic to this day and makes gun play feel a whole lot more satisfying. Overall conclusion, do I think I would recommend this game? It depends on what you are looking for. If you are looking for a shooter with really good story telling, play something like half life,
    Metro, Bioshock or. If you are looking for a shooter that demands you to actually play tactical, then play Metal Gear solid V, Halo or Battlefield bad company 2, or if you want a game with a super satisfying gun play, then play doom or wolfenstein. But if you do seek a fun Battlefield exoerience or just wish to play a laid back shooter, then yes Battlefield 3 would still be a good choice. Despite me speaking mostly negative about this game, beyond that I could recommend this game a lot more based on the mulitplayer, since it does have a very solid and enjoyable multiplayer mode, but since I prefer to just review the game based on singleplayer, because I have not played multiplayer during my session, I will just say that it is definitely still one of the better multiplayer shooters out there. Thus I will conclude my review with a 6/10 for the Singleplayer mode. (Multiplayer mode would be an 8.5 or 9/10).    … Expand

    The Narratives are good, The Cutscene is well made and the voice acting is fantastic.

    The Visuals are great for a 2011 game, I would say it's still a decent game to play in 2021.
    The animations are alright, but motion capture is slightly bad, especially facial capture.

    Encountered a lot of Bugs during my PlayThrough, from T-bone animations to unclickable NPC when i was supposed to climb over walls. And also had multiple full-on game crashes.

    The story is still great, it's not like its changes in the past 9 years.]

    The single-player part of the game isn't that replayable, you will get the same outcome every time.
    I couldn't find a match in Co-Op, and on Multiplayer everyone is basically in a vehicle all the time.
    But yes, the replayability is good, you can theoretically spend hours upon hours in this game, but if it will be enjoyable, that i don't know.

    "7/10 – Good
    Playing a Good game is time well spent. Could it be better? Absolutely.

    Gameplay: 9, Graphics: 9. Story: 6. This game sucks over 100 hours from me. When i've first play it i was so impress by the amazing gun play and jaw dropping graphics. The gun play are so addicting because the the weapon were so fun to play with combine with the graphics and animations that blew me away despite being a 2011 game, but the story is... it just so bad

    The best game in the entire Battlefield franchise, a very good campaign, a majestic soundtrack, some impressive graphics with many details, a complete epicity, the only thing was that I found 2 bug, but it does not matter since the campaign and the music is outstanding, etc. So I'm not going to judge that two bugs at all. Very Good Work DICE !!!

    The best part of this game is multiplayer, graphics and physics. This game was truly ahead of its time and still not outdated by any measures.
    Campaign is decent for Battlefield. It was good because it was grounded and realistic, it showed the life of regular marine not some special force badass dudes in steroids trying to save the world.

    I just finished this today in 2020, and I'm only rating the single-player experience, and it's the essence of "meh" mediocrity. The gameplay can be frustratingly clunky sometimes, and the story is by-the-numbers. There's more variety than most FPS games here, as you can play gunner in a plane or tank, but those experiences are actually kind of dull, albeit realistic.

    Отличная игра, спустя даже 9 лет в игру приятно играть и графика радует глаз. В целом из минусов могу отметить забагованность, багов вагон и маленькая тележка, а так вполне играбельно в лучших традициях. 8/10

    за 1500 рублей мы получали в то время полную игру со всеми дополнениями и со всем контентом и НИКАКИХ боевых пропусков . 5 по моему дополнений были включены. каждое дополнение в наше время по качеству сравнимо с отдельной игрой. каждое дополнение РЕАЛЬНО сделано для игроков, они все разные, бек ту карканд это карты из прошлой части, арморед килл с танковыми баталиями квадриками и супер красивой ночной картой.... енд гейм с революционным и супер режимом захват флага где на мотике надо украсть фраг и довести его до своей базы как это было весело когда за тобой охотится ВСЯ вражеская команда а ты от них уезжаешь... зимняя карта тоже была супер и где типа было землятресение (афтермаф). кроме того в КАЖДОМ дополнении было супер много новых пушек и техники короче мне лень писать
    Эта игра напишу еще хоть 100 раз произвела революцию в онлайн играх, графика обогнала своё время на 8 лет где то (она не выглядит сегодня хоть какой то старой. а на момент того времени у меня просто челюсть отвисала. колфдюди сделала продукт примерно того же качества только в 2019) . не было женщин на поле боя с крюком вместо рук не было никакой лишней фантастики. мы часами долбились в метро мы проливали кровь на тегеранском шоссе мы умирали от скиловиков на самолётах у нас бомбило от челов которые спавнились на кране в каналах ноушехра спрыгивали и с парашута сбрасывали си 4 взрывая нас мы просто наслаждались каждой минутой в этой игре.
    таких же эмоций я не получал больше ни от одной игры, похоже что это бывает лишь единожды. огромное спасибо и игрокам которые например делали частушки в стиле батлфилд

So, just go rent the game, play the single player to get a feel for the controls, team up (best experience is with some friends) and head out into the battlefield for some multi-player. The worst that could happen is that you don't like it and you're out a couple bucks, and if you do, you buy it and have a new game to play. If you want single player alone, only rent this game.

    В принципе, за 10 лет игра потеряла свой вкус. Перестрелки однообразны, враги не слишком-то умны. В моменты, когда стрельбу пытаются разнообразить, весь геймплей заключается буквально в нажатии двух кнопок (миссия на самолете и танке), что не играет на руку интересности.

Киношные моменты не особенно впечатлили в 2к20. Сюжет, являясь вишенкой на торте показался немного скомканным к концу (предполагаю вмешательство издателя), и не слишком интересным, плохо прописанные персонажи и их химией. Не дожали, короче. Графически выглядит хорошо, если обновить текстуры на 4к, то игра будет смотреться лучше некоторых новинок. Встретились пару багов, связанные с совместимостью с современными системами, что не украсило картину. Ностальгия игру не спасла. Конечно, все эти претензии относятся к 2020 году, что не мешает игре оставаться одной из лучших 2011, где все эти моменты не замечались, а все достоинства работали на все 100%.… Expand

    Battlefield 3 remains my most played multiplayer game. It wasn't a perfect game by means and too often DICE broke just as much as they fixed with their patches. The game introduced some new maps that went on to be classics and had great gun and vehicle play.

    Я очень долго и упорно обходил стороной серию игр Battlefield, что сразу скажу зря, смог я прозреть только в 2015, когда уже был закат третьей и четвертой части, с которыми я и познакомился. Обидно осознавать, что лучшие дни данной игры прошли, онлайн стал меньше, список карт не такой обширный, да и в целом, пройденный этап. Но я все еще поигрываю в трешку и никак не могу привыкнуть к четверке, пока что не очень заходит, наверное нужно чуть больше времени. Подводя итоги, хочу сказать данной части спасибо за все, то чему она меня научила и за впечатления которые доставила, надеюсь, что ближайшие годы, там все так же будет поигрывать 3-4 тысячи человек и у меня будет возможность и желание зайти и поиграть.    … Expand

    It's all a matter of taste, after all. They each provide a certain type of entertainment – when talking about Battlefield 3, it involves a bigger game, more open in its possibilities and more spectacular. But on a longer timeline, less frantic and with fewer Bruce Willis scenes than the mass appeal beast it set itself to dethrone.
