Although we have taken the opportunity BF3 to install on a separate hard drive, previously the Verbindug was cut to the main disk. This Origin was unable to access our data. We had to make it quarreled return it from the outset, but wanted it before, at least not try in a safe environment. It was important to get us a basic idea of the game to rate it reasonably can. It is in this case a matter of principle and here can not get away why EA Origin would have been sufficient as reason for complaint alone. I therefore urge all still free-thinking people, this game not at first to order or send it back at least as I and a friend did it.
For the actual game:
The developer Dice has done a good job with the Frostbyte 2 Engine:
The graphics, physics and sound of Frostbyte 2 Engine are phenomenal, what makes this game for probably the best first person shooter so far.
The single player is good, the co-op maps make almost all the fun and the multiplayer is the culmination of the game.
However, there were some technical issues:
First there was the installation of the game with all Downloads probably the most comprehensive in my life which has lasted at least 5 hours.
Another problem is the server browser. This I think is sometimes quite cumbersome to use and not really ideal because there is no real main menu.
The servers are also sometimes very heavily congested. But the strongest Tehnical problem were the crashes, which were apparently caused by a change in the options menu and were making no longer reversed. My friend could nurnoch play with washed graphics. I had some timing issues with a black screen that appeared when you start the game, after I had changed a control button! This problem I could only be solved after hours of tinkering various ligand-art settings and changing cables. But there was still a faulty Exe, by which I am often kicked in Single Player.
We have this game therefore returned for Origin and the technical problems and hope that it increases many others do with it the pressure on EA.
Because of Origin I give the game a star. Without Origin I would give the game due to the technical problems 3 stars and if they were rausgepatcht 5 Stars.
It is important that the client closed against EA are to show this group that us our privacy is still important. All who purchase this game and willingly support this practice paves the way for corporations as desired data about their users to gather, as it has Google and Facebook do for example. These illuminate not the entire computer. Origin is also not only used for Battlefield 3 and FIFA 12, but all other EA titles to appear in the future on this platform, such as Mass Effect. 3
I'm just disappointed as a group but the trust of its customers to exploit the number of negative reviews gives me hope that there are still plenty of people who are not mindless consumer zombies.
