I have not play a battlefield game since bf2 on the pc . I have switch over to the call of duty series over the last few year and love they . I read some of the glowing review for bf3 and decide to give it a shot and have not be disappoint . I recommend download the hd graphic -lrb- which clock in at around 2gb -rrb- . they be great and they make you feel more immerse in you surroundings . I know people have complain about it take up hdd space , but there be only so much you can fit on a dvd . if you have the 250gb console , this should not be a problem . my only complaint with the game be : 1 - you can not customize you class in between round . I find this annoying because I end up adjust my kit during time I should be play in a round . be it the end of the world , no. . it be something that can be fix though . 2 - not be able jump out of the server you be currently on while in between round . at the end of a round you have to wait until the next round begin before you can quit you current server to join a new one . it take about a minute or so to switch in between map . again a minor complaint but one that can be fix in the future I be sure . I try go back to mw3 but find the run & gun pace a bit play out . I like the `` slower '' pace of bf3 , as well as the xp point bonus -lrb- like give ammo to or reviving\/healing -rrb- you get from interact with you assign squadmate -lrb- if you join one -rrb- . the destructible environment bring another level of play in . tank & rocket can take out wall , car & tree . finally , the weapon customization rock in this game . so many option to choose from . from tactical flashlight , bipod , IR scope to foregrip & underbarrel launcher . this be a must own title !
