    Battlefield 3 is one of the last good Battlefield games. I had about 200 hours of gameplay in the multiplayer.

    Einzelspieler Review:

    Die Kampagne ist in Ordnung. Grafik super. Gameplay top.

    Mehrspieler Review:

    Der beste Multiplayer den ich je gespielt hat. Bis jetzt ist da kein Spiel rangekommen.

    An interesting plot, interesting multiplayer, all this awaits you in BF3. An interesting implementation of the plot. Very cool multiplayer with a large variety of locations, with good destructible and with a large number of weapons. I put 9 because there are minor flaws

    Years after its release, Battlefield 3 is still a very impressive shooter, both visually and gameplay-wise.

    Really liked most of the maps, graphics were good for it's time, shooting mechanics are satisfying. Fun game, but grenade spam can be really annoying, suffers from infamous lens flares and blue color grade, and suppression is extremely annoying.

    Wow this game looks **** awesome. Even in 2018. I still can't handle it. Story was cool but the Multiplayer is the core of this game, which is cool as well but there should be more Infantry-Maps like Operation Metro.

    Been playing since launch, absolutely love it. Even reformated my hard drive so my outdated laptop could run it & it still looks amazing. & yep im a BF3 all the way, i used to be all about Modern Warfare, but once MW2 turned out to be less entertaining than minesweeper, tried Bad Company. & i was completely mind boggled with the fact why ive been playing MW at all.

    I consider this part of the best in the series (at the time of writing the review). The guys from DICE showed us the destructibility of objects, cool moments, excellent and dynamic game. Each weapon had its pluses and minuses. I cried like a little girl when I first saw a knife-kick animation.

    Buy this for the multiplayer - it is, by far, the best multiplayer experience out there.

    BF3 improves a lot on BF2, but you will have to learn your skills again as the game is quite different.

    Netcode and hit detection is excellent (at least for me) just be sure to play on low ping servers

    Battlefield 3 delivers an intense, dynamic and immersive multiplayer with gorgeous graphics and masterfully crafted sound design, despite an underwhelming campaign that is just there for the sake of it.

    Battlefield 3 is a fantastic game. Featuring spectacular graphics and physics with the incredible new Frostbite 2 Engine, satisfying and responsive gun-play, and amazing multiplayer, especially on the PC. The sound design was done by the same sound designer behind Limbo, and it shows, because it is very well done. The crack of a sniper rifle, the rattle of machine gun fire across the map,Battlefield 3 is a fantastic game.

The sound design was done by the same sound designer behind Limbo, and it shows, because it is very well done. The crack of a sniper rifle, the rattle of machine gun fire across the map, and the distinctive sound of a helicopter flying overhead, all of it is just great and immerses you in this war experience that Battlefield is trying to deliver. And while the multiplayer is pretty much perfect, the campaign is very bland. Dice really, sorely needs to get their act together in developing single player experiences, because they've always misfired when they attempt one. Aside from that, Battlefield 3 is an excellent game that anyone who enjoys multiplayer should play.… Expand

    The best FPS of my life.
    Wonderful maps, realistic guns and sound effects, infinite fun and last but not least the GRAPHICS
    Omg Battlefield 3 graphic is amazing for a 2011 game!
    Buy it and you won't regret it.... NEVER!
    and **** you battlefield 1, **** game where everyone can make a good k/d ratio and the maps are awful.

    Rushed, plagued with glitches, bad hit detection and balance issues, never meant to be fixed, just another disposable title that died after one year so that stupid people could purchase their next low-quality overrated game.

    Le Frostbite est un moteur magnifique : un V12 Ferrari et qui de surcroît ne consomme pas outre-mesure. Sur une bécane moyenne, réglé sur automatique il envoit encore du bois. Très impressionnant.

    *Análisis de la campaña individual.
    No tiene mucho misterio. Es otro shooter bélico moderno del montón. Con una trama de las mas flojas de todas pero algunos episodios medianamente bien construidos. Entretenido para un par de tardes pero sin que nadie espere nada que sorprenda por su calidad.

    Graphics, gameplay, sounds and weapons places this one as the best FPS MMO of the century. Blasting buildings, sky and ground battles, the detail and animation implemented into this game is unbelievable.

    Battlefield 3 campaign doesn't compare to battlefield 4 campaign, The multiplayer may be good but....
    I found the campaign just plain boring, the story was poor and the weapons are no way near as good as battlefield 4.
    The optimization is fantastic and graphics are supreme for its days!
    I only recommend this for the pvp not campaign

    Really fun game with lots of variants. Although the rush mode isn't as fun as Battlefield Bad Company 2. It improves on almost all aspects that BFBC2 was flawed in.

    One of the most realistic shooters ever published in the history of gaming. Most gameplay elements resemble the usual Call of Duty-style game mechanics, but Battlefield 3 stands on another ground.

    Best Battlefield after BF2, sadly they pushed out too much Battlefields and the community split up and now almost noone plays this Game anymore. It was really good. Hopefully they learn out of this Game and stop **** up like bf4 and hardline.

    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.

    No, Battlefield 3 is not the best game of today. But good looking – definitely. It also has an absolutely addictive multiplayer. Who needs more? [Dec 2011]

    Both a triumphant leap forward and a return to form for the Battlefield series. This is the best multiplayer shooter on PC. [Christmas 2011, p.58]
