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.

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

    • Newegg offers insane combo deal on Amazon Prime Day 2026 that beats Steam Machine

      How can it beat a Steam machine without a serious GPU? The two CU iGPU only provides about 5fps in gaming. That's not going to make any gamer happy.
    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
