I just finished the SP version of this game and I loved how it ended. It is a good game.

It's definitely one of the best SP campaigns I've played. I haven't beat it yet but I look forward to the ending.

Yep, as I said a few pages back, I really think the SP campaign is way, way better than it is getting credit for, and I am glad my brother-in-law pushed me to continue checking it out, as I had somewhat given up on it. It is actually very good when all is said and done. (Y)

+1, It has structure to the story, graphics just add to the immersion but the plot itself is very interesting...

It is far better than MW3's SP campaign. It is harder and I only finished it on Easy.

I usually focus on MP with FPS games but ever since my Xbox 360 broke, I've been using my free time to play the SP campaign on my brother's PC account. I only played the first mission when I bought the X360 version and I thought it was good. Despite that, I decided to play MP exclusively. Well... now that I've had a chance to play a bunch of missions, I need to say that this is one of the best campaigns I've ever played. It truly felt like you're part of a huge storyline... like you're a character in an action movie. I haven't beat it yet and I'm craving for more. I especially liked the missions where you

play as the Russian agent

.

I think DICE actually managed to make a really good SP experience. The SP campaign for Bad Company 2 was decent but in comparison, BF3's SP campaign is so much better.

Thank you for getting it right.

There is nothing wrong with SP, of course there are things wrong but not that much. (Y)

Try playing it on hard and I think your opinion might change drastically. Because it's not hard it's just irritating and not very fun at all. It doesn't matter how good you are, you're still going to die, a lot.

You shouldn't have to die 25 times to learn where the enemies spawn just so you can shoot there to defeat a wave or two of idiotic AI to progress. And although the AI is stupid as can be they still manage to kill you in 1 shot even if all they can see of you is your toe. Or they'll lob a heat seeking grenade in your direction when you're completely out of sight and around a corner.

You're probably looking at next week for the 360. DICE usually patches on Tuesdays and the later it gets in the week the less likely they are to release a major patch like this. That's how they did it with BC2 and it seems they are continuing the trend now.

aw...oh well I'm still having fun without the patch....the thing that's annoying me the most is those damn green flashes....no mention of a fix for them. :(

The Xbox 360 patch will be here on Dec 6th according to Major Nelson (believe that's the guy).

That's the new dashboard, not the BF3 patch....though they may get released at the same time if trag3dy is right...would kinda make sense.

Back to Karkand will be released on Tuesday (December 6th) for the PS3: http://blogs.battlef...on-tuesday.aspx

The PC/X360 folks will have to wait until the following Tuesday (December 13th).

    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here

      I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.

      Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!

      It’s a code which will be connected to your account. You can share the box but that would be sort of pointless.
