Now in that 13 minutes here is what happened * 3/4 team people meet up in a room and jibber jabber * Remove window boards to help 4th team mate join up as well, clearly in an Urban setting, clearly day time * Travel to Jungle on foot * Travel to Industrial area near the coast emerging from forest, maybe evening, but certainly not sunset * Lots of fire fighting, some menial vehicle use, going up a building, helicopter sequence with helicopter ally * Enemy Helicopter shows up tries to shoot at you from behind the chopper that is trying to rescue you instead of just shooting that rescue chopper. * Doesn't matter either way, in trying to kill you they managed to kill the building instead so it comes crashing down. Rescue chopper also dies. * You wake up, it's night time, cut a fallen soldiers leg Nikita style, then driving coastal highway. Is it early morning sunrise now? * Enemy chopper shows up again, this time you take it out using your grenade gun thingy * Then your car crashes in water and loop is complete. So basically F-U TIME Seriously? Very nice graphics and I really liked the ocean waves splashing water ending up on car wind shield while driving. But the rest of the games plot, story, character, etc type stuff is just worthless. Why can't they use all that technology to make a game that I might actually care about? |
The campaign is not important at all. Battlefield didn't even have a Campaign when it first released. It was added alot later for the Cod crowd but it really plays no role. If you don't play Battlefield for the MP better skip it since it sucks as a SP game.
Plot Story and Characters are entirely meaningless, if you buy Battlefield for that you will be dissapointed. I see Campaign more like a prolonged Tutorial and whatever happens there is just to get used to the controls weapons and (maybe) some of the vehicles thats it. I play BF since BF 1942 (not all of them) and I don't even remember the plot or a character name from any campaign. All I remember from BC 2 Campaign for example is the scene where you snipe guys in the rain and time it with the thunder in order to not alarm anyone. Thats it. BF3 Campaign I never even played. And I don't intend to play BF 4 Campaign longer than 30 minutes. In contrast I remember the whole story in Bioshock and I play the games just for SP.
Its rare that a shooter gets SP and MP right, like Halo for example.
BF is a MP franchise.
