Totally overhyped. Stick with Bad Company or CoD.
by fps-gamer on December 26, 2011
Pros: ZThere are lots of weapons and vehicles.
Cons: Weapons unbalanced
Online play with freinds doesn't work
Released a 20 dollar exp pack 1 month after launch
New weapons have to be unlocked from exp pack and 1/2 of them don't even work
Can't change the environment like BC2
can't name it all

Summary: It seems like this is EA's response to MW3 and they were in such a rush to release it before MW3 that they didn't seem to care the game was full of bugs. The thing about EA is they don't fix things, they got your money and as far as they are concerned thats the end of the story. Why release an expansion pack 1 month after release? Why now jsut add it to thegame? Its been months now and the guns that are so gliched that you can't even use them (literally) still aren't fixed. If you liked BC2 and thats why you are considering this game please don't waste your money. The graphics arestill crap and there is even less gameplay/multiplayer option than BC2. This is a game that EA totally overhyped and just needed to release before CoD in orer to get some sales. Well they would have been better off actually creating a good game because I can't even play it anymore sincew when I do I spawn right in front of someone, I will chase someone and get hung up because I can't jump over stick or a curb yet somehow I can jump over cars... i will shoot someone 5 times with a rifle or shotgun, then will turn around and one shot me with a pistol. There is TONS of glare too. The sun and flashlights totally blind you since as we all know, shinning a flashlight at someone in broad daylight totally blinds them... Please steer clear of this overhyped garbage and jsut stick with BC2 or CoD.

The most realalistic shooter game out. 10/10
by The_Mac_80 on November 12, 2011
Pros: The real distructable enviroment mixed with the fostbite 2 engine makes the game one step above any other game on the market. I mean you really have to appreciate an enviroment that is fully distructable with real bullet drop. The vehicles on the game pus
Cons: The game squads are not set up to play with friends easily and the mic communication is choppy. This is a problem because online players like to play with friends not against them. It is agreed the lobby set up needs help.
Summary: The story mode is awsome, the maltiplayer is awsome, the total game package awsome, a must play for shooter fans everywhere.

Does not blow away BF2
by deanjm24 on November 2, 2011
Pros: Looks great.
Cons: Feel of guns are better in last game. Trying to make a squad with friends and being able to talk to each other does not work at all. Sometimes it will put you in the same game on different teams or same team but different squads. Why even have invite a fr
Summary: Hopefully will be improved with some patches.

More of the same and nothing special
by kenmil01 on November 1, 2011
Pros: It's a shooter.
You get to kill lots of **********.
Cons: Only two weapons.
Movement is ridiculous at times.
What's with the glare form sun/cars/lights etc

Summary: Nothing in this game sets it apart from any other shooter, at least not in a positive sense. Having grown tired of the "red screen effect" when you are shot, the developers have discovered something new with which to annoy us. All through this game, day or night, you find yourself looking into a glaring sun, or car headlights, or laser sight, or street lights, or weapon flashlight...the list goes on. And when you are not looking into those, you are looking into reflections of them. Talk about overdoing it !
I am also sick and tired of games where you can jump cars, but when under fire, a cardboard box becomes an obstacle you can't get over. This game has a number of spots where you can get your character stuck, unable to move, necessitating a restart of the game. That's a real turnoff too.
In campaign mode, it is typically short, and not all that interesting. I really could not recommend it.
