terrible even free is too much
PostedFebruary 10, 2015
this is the worst game I've ever played and I've played Steam alpha releases. the only redeeming quality of it is the graphics, some of the best out there, but had I played this game straight through I would have beaten it in 2 hours if that. i got suckered in by the hype and now regret spending even a penny on this junk. even the multiplayer is horrible, the HUD is hard to see and the maps are not the least bit enjoyable. to date this is the only game that i regret buying. even if you could get this for free the memory usage would be too great a cost. terrible, just flat out terrible.

Totally Worth It

Battlefield 3 Premium Edition is worth the money. Although the maps seem to be optimized for certain game modes, the maps, story line and co-op are just the signs of a perfect shooter game. I would just play this game whenever I feel like playing the game, and I play it for hours. Literally. Buy it. It's worth the money.
Before you buy Battlefield 3 Premium Edition, please consider this fact I am about to tell you. The extra downloadable content is horrible. Yep, horrible. Back to Karkand is lousy and a cheap way to suck money from your wallet. Armored kill is the worst of them all, please DO NOT buy the Premium Edition. Just get the normal edition. If you want extra content, just buy the End Game pack. It is the only good one out of the others. Please listen to my warning! Now to the game itself. The storyline is enthralling and actually very fun and the ending is satisfing. Good storyline overall. Multiplayer is a bit laggy but I play it on the Xbox 360 so I guess the lag is on all platforms and PC. The weapons are a bit overpowered such as the Scar and the missile launcher which obliterates your vehicle in a matter of seconds. Audio is subpar with plenty of annoying "reloading" quotes replayed over and over again. If you like fast-paced action then buy Black Ops instead. If strategic teamwork is your way of playing, then stick with Battlefield 3. Check out my review on Need for Speed:The Run.
At first I was hesitant to buy the map packs but I wanted to extend my gaming experience with Battlefield considering it is one of my favorite games. I do not regret buying this. It's worth every penny. Each Map pack has something different to offer. Close quarters has a Call of Duty feel which is a nice change from all the big maps and vehicles. Armored Kill is more like BF3, BUT HUGE! These maps are really fun for games like conquest which require big maps and multiple vehicles for amazing fun. I am not a big fan of the aftermath map pack. It is annoying and hard to play on, but it's not that bad. Lastly, End Game. I LOVE IT! The addition of Capture the Flag was amazing. I spent most of my time riding dirt bikes and playing capture the flag with his map pack which I recommend you try out. It's never to late to play this amazing game with it's new maps.
