It's very limited in terms of player base if you only have the base game.. that 's how they sucker you into it.

Graphics are pretty similar to the beta, although the textures were horrendous in the beta, theyve been overhauled. Its not like CSGO, does come with a [Stupid] campaign. Good game though, must have logged a few k hours over the past 2 years.

Yeah very few people play the base game anymore since all the dlc has come out.

You go into a game and it should launch automatically, although Battlelog & Origin are horrendous services.

every time it launch it shows error, I think I need to have vanilla before I can launch this expansion.... that has always been the case with all games out there, you need vanilla to be able to play the expansions.

Ermm I'm looking at the website and can't figure out what the difference is between the 'BATTLEFIELD 3™ PREMIUM' & 'BATTLEFIELD 3™ PREMIUM EDITION' except for the price. Can anyone enlighten me?

team fortress has most of bf's play mechanics and is more focused on fun..

BF is very frustrating, because I think it's too real... too much **** going on the screen, even with the graphics turned down.

which expansion are played the most? i do see a limited amount of server available with the base game plus that free code expansion.

Also noticed there are at least a dozen DLCs.

still it's way more than csgo's community servers, constantly at less than 10 full.

i thought the whole point of bf series it to GET REAL

except honestly by now they should have already tried holdhands with crysis, except all companies never join hands like a hollywood cluster  film.

never buying consoles ever.
