How long can a game of Conquest take on Caspian Border!!! lol!!! Lucky I wasn't in a rush!

Don't think I've been on Caspian Border yet.

 

[Scutch]

I haven't even got used to 1 of the maps yet, never mind all of them. Then there's this :

Its huge - jets, helis and loads of jeeps etc!!! Was on foot and the target was 650 away (not sure what its measured in!) so modes of transport a must! Took 30mins to finish the match!

 

[Geddes]

Seems a good price for what you get

 

[GeordieClioDriver]

Even better when its free ;-)

I'm loving this game so far! But, When it disconnects and I get kicked it counts as a loss! I kept checking on the battlelog!

Heres mine if anyone wants to add me - http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/user/jedayegeordie1/

Gotta say its a nice feature.. looks similar and just as in depth as some other FPS's offerings.. but free! ;-)

 

[Dredz06]

Get off the battlelog and get on the battlefield Geordie you gay!

[Darren S]

really liking this. just got knifed of my mate the c**t, need revenge need his tags. Still need to get into more tanks and air support. need points for those

How on earth do you call out for some one to get you ammo? i thought there was a table/chart where you can select what command you want like BF2142

I <3 the commo rose!

Got the despatch confirmation from Amazon on mine this morning - along with the Spectact (sp?) unlock code. Can't wait to do some tank whoring and/or take out the tank whores myself....engi class FTW!

So does the LTD edition include getting these maps for free?

yep, classed as Back to Karkand (make sure it includes that before you buy it)

Didnt even read what the code gave me before I used it! lol! More maps = more fun!

 

[Will.]

I love this game. Been playing it all evening.

Unsure on why some matches I have different weapons?

 

[James28]

The maps in the Back to Karkand pack are all BF2 maps remade.
All the best maps too. Karkand and Wake I spent days on.

 

[J0sh]

Got the hang of jets now, just need to learn how to fly evaively and shake off enemy jets. Helo's on the ither hand are proving alot harder to fly, although I did strafe some guy a treat earlier in the little bird. Burst of minigun fire to the chest. Goodnight princess.

 

[sneeks]

I lost a few hours to this tonight playing campaign. It's good but I think I enjoyed MW 1&2 campaign mode more.

 

[Geddes]

So is the coma rose coming into this then? my favourite was 'Go Go Go' lol those were the days

If you were hoping the campaign would be mind blowing then your missing the point of Battlefield, its all about the online.

 

[p@blo]

Is this worth getting (xbox)?

Fancy something different to the MW norm, I doubt I'll be getting MW3. So it this worth it for those who have it already?

Worth a look, but i've found it disappointing tbh. Comparing it to bf2, the c**tsole version seems a step backwards-in terms of gameplay. Graphically its infinitely better but with it so infantry focused, the vehicles now just seem an afterthought. Jets & helis are laughable, dumbed down is an understatement. :clown:

Can anyone who's played the console port/pc version advise if it's worth bothering with? Darren?

 

[STRBramley]

I completed the pc version yesterday. It's by far the best single player game of the last 5 years imo. The graphics, atmosphere, sounds and story are just amazing.

 

[Addicted]

Been flying helis with my mate all evening, once you get some decent unlocks they're pretty damn good, though a little under-powered still against troops/tanks
Managed to get 7k xp on a conquest match so got 5 unlocks, yet to test them all out though!

Good stuff, I played the last one atleast 3 times through. I got about 5 mins in on this one last night ( didn't even get through the train ), can't wait.

I love the word free.

 

[millzzz]

Was there some sort of graphics upgrade thing on the PS3?

 

[Matt W]

I decided not to buy this and concentrate on Forza.

Accidently bought it.


It's incredible.

 

[James28]

The Limited Edition PC version wasn't preorder only was it?
I'm looking to buy it today but struggling to find a shop with it?

nope

 

[sneeks]

The tank and air strike missions in campaign mode are great fun.

 

[JimWD]

Is battlelog working for anyone yet?! (Xbox)

I want to see what the fuss is all about.

 

[.Ben.]

How bloody hard is it to fly helicopters??

 

[AK]

Love it.

 

[p@blo]

How bloody hard is it to fly helicopters??

They really aren't

 

[Marcus---]

Loving this, doing campaign on hard though, slightly regretting it as i have had to restart a fair few times, spent almost 2 hours on operation guillotine

Even BF2 had awesome expansion packs, more guns, maps, vehicles, new badges etc.

Expect similar awesomeness.

[Geddes]

[Geddes]
