    am i the only one that thinks the single player for BF3 was AWFUL ?!?!

    i finished the BF3 single player campaign. not because i loved every minute, but because i dislike starting a game and not finishing it.

    talk about a rail shooter. MW2 might have been a rail shooter, but at least it was fun.

    and what was with the dragon's lair type of boss fights ?
    e, space, right mouse click, etc. they made no sense. what a super lame way to have a fight.

    and boring, did i mention boring ? there seemed to be more walking around and crawling than there was fighting.

    at least the multi player is a blast.

    if you haven't played the single player campaign, you have been warned.

    BTW DICE, if you are gonna make a single player campaign, make it good. it can be short, but make it fun and exciting. or don't make it at all, and just focus on multi player.

    I haven't played the single player at all. MP is where it's at. Always has been for BF games.

    I went through it for the trophies but tbh can't remember any of the plot at all now.

    DICE did a good campaign in Bad Company helped by the personalities of the characters; BC2 was not so good.

    I enjoyed BF3's singleplayer, I just treated it like an action movie and had a good time. There's some pretty stunning graphics to behold as well.

    Kinda neat seeing the likeness of the actor who plays Aaron Pierce from 24 in the cutscenes, he's also the over-the-radio commander in Modern Warfare 2, great voice for that sort of thing.

    It was OK for what it was, except for the enemies' fixation on focusfiring the player whenever he's in line of sight.

    Hmmm definately not the best part of the game. Also I despise those "quick time events" "press space to win" etc.

    There have been plenty of people that have said the single player in BF3 was awful.

    Personally though I think calling it awful is taking it too far.

    Edit:
    I would say it's closer to just being an interactive piece of entertainment than being a game though

    If you purchased BF3 for the single player, then it is you who is awful.
