BF3 Campaign

If you want to discuss the campaign or need help with something, trophies or whatever, discuss it here. And don't worry about spoilers...if you don't want to know, read no further. I dare ya, lol.

I really liked the other dudes in your squad...Montes in particular. I'm glad they gave them some personality, even if the campaign was pretty much throwaway. Miller was cool too...I liked the dinosaur.

Also, did anyone notice/find the DICE sandcastle?

Uh...so I'm on the last part of night shift where you're supposed to be leaving the mall for the helicopter. Except every time I go to leave the mall, my screen gets completely whited out. I can't see anything at all, except the little blue box and the blood from me inevitably getting killed because I can't fucking see anything. Help?

Are you following right behind your buddy? If you stick with them, you guys get shot to hell. You need to cover their exit from the mall (first in the hallway until they make it to the entrance, then from the front steps as they get to tha choppa), as a few more guys come in on their way out just after you all leave that room. After you take the new guys out (straight down the hall, then on the next floor up), head outside, but don't go further than the mall exit (use the steps and wall as cover, just pop out for a shot or two, then duck back)...they are going to take fire from the right, but just keep them covered and suppress the soldiers coming down the road to the right. After they get on board, haul ass to the bird, diving prone behind cover and crawling if you get hit a few times. That should do it!

by Guest Tue Oct 25, 2011 10:54 pm

Yeah, I know thats what's supposed to happen. But if I so much as look in the direction of the mall exit, my screen gets flooded with white.

It's like this.

by **GoMonkey66** Wed Oct 26, 2011 12:46 am

Oh, crappy. Well...um...reinstall? Lame, lol...sorry.

by **GoMonkey66** Wed Oct 26, 2011 12:48 am

This may sound stupid, but you know all those monitors and light sources in the mall? Well, I shot them all out to give myself darkness, since you have the thermal scope...dunno of that would help at all, but...try it, maybe?

by Guest Wed Oct 26, 2011 3:43 am

Same glitch happened to me. It only happened at that particular part too. I guess some people get lucky and don't have it.

by Guest Wed Oct 26, 2011 10:38 am

Yeah. It worked after I restarted my ps3 though.

I was too busy raging to consider restarting my PS3.

by Guest Wed Oct 26, 2011 12:47 pm

I didn't restart so much as rage quit for the night and then come back to it this morning.

by **GoMonkey66** Wed Oct 26, 2011 2:12 pm

That's a sensible option, lol.

I was raging so...fucking...hard on that damn Comrades mission. My game glitched out on me and I had the bomb carrier dude right in front of me until we hit the metro station stairs...he ran up there and then literally disappeared. Even though I was right fucking THERE I kept failing the mission. It said that he got away, which was bullshit because I could get to the platform and turn and see him before it failed me. This happened about 25 times. I was ragefaced. The cats were scared.

The more I think about it, the more campaign feels like it borrows heavily from CoD4 and MW2. It uses all the same plot devices and everything.

by **GoMonkey66** Wed Oct 26, 2011 3:42 pm

I totally does...rogue operatives, WMDs, terrorists, Russians, flashbacks, uncontrolled aircraft bits (C130 or F18), crazy chases, that shocking "I can't believe they put that in a game" moment, nuke going off in a large city...it goes on and on.

It's the one area that the COD franchise has always done right...the campaigns in those are awesome.

Lol...that would suck.

I thought rolling thunder Was one of the best missions I'v played so far it was awesome when you get to us the 50cal it shows how awesome a 50cal really is.

fuck Night Shift I probably died more times at the end then in all the other missions together.

by **GoMonkey66** Thu Oct 27, 2011 3:23 pm

Really? Night Shift was super easy IMO. I just thought it was fun.

Minus the huge glitch, its quite fun.

by **GoMonkey66** Thu Oct 27, 2011 5:56 pm

It didn't happen to me, so I was ok with it. It was actually one of the few missions where I didn't die, lol.

I couldn't stop thinking of Black Ops through the whole campaign, might just be me tho..

by **GoMonkey66** Sat Oct 29, 2011 5:48 pm

I skipped Black Ops, thankfully. COD4 & MW2's campaigns were great fun, but this one, besides being short, was also all old territory. Still, I didn't expect anything less, so I wasn't disappointed. I knew DICE's strong point wasn't narrative. Also, the missions were so constrictive...you HAD to do exactly what they expect you to do or you couldn't move on. It was like "Ok, I'm just going to get this over with", and it took less than a day, lol.

by **mrgerbik03** Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:29 am

Heh...played the first mission on hard and was getting torn a new one at the bridge sequence by enemies that can shoot me but I can't shoot them. That is one way of making a game's difficulty "hard". Maybe will pick up SP when someone hacks psn to shit again.

by **GoMonkey66** Wed Nov 02, 2011 11:41 am

Other than some lame trophies, there's no real point in doing it on hard unless you like to feel like you just got gangraped by alligators. I haven't tried it yet, but in BFBC2 you could get the "completed it on hard" trophy just by playing the last level on hard. I should check it and see.

by **Asplashofcitrus** Wed Nov 02, 2011 4:36 pm

I really enjoyed the campaign. I feel it ended a bit abruptly though.

by **Watkins34** Wed Nov 02, 2011 5:12 pm

I think it tells you how the war started and why America and Russia are at war over all it's a ok game.

Stay on slightly on the backside of the stairs. That way they can't shoot you. After a while it will tell you to retreat anyway.

Anyone have any tips for the mall sequence in Operation Guillotine on Hard? I always screw up when I enter the giant atrium area.

by Guest Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:11 am

I'm not gonna bother getting the other trophies, completed it on normal today and thats all the SP I can handle. Stupid shitty teammates, heavy ass scripting that want's you to do certain things that you need clairvoyancy to figure out without dying, and generally just a piss poor story makes this probably the worst single player experience I've had in a long time.

Seriously, who the fuck play tested the campaign, because it's a mess.

Same people that tested battlelog, co-op and MP. Monkeys with no hands.
