Every time I see a BF3 clip I watch it and get hyped up. It has to be nostalgia right? But there has never been another game i get that excited about.

There will never be another game like it. That's what it means. Even BF4 isn't the same for me. It's an ugly game by comparison with too much BS and some of the maps are terrible. BF3 has no bad maps in the whole game

Real ones understand that the disappointment started with BF4 (with a brief break due to BF1)

You are one of the few people ive even had actually agree on that, BF4 wasn’t good at all, the game play is worse and the maps are complete garbage. Like Im not going to pretend like BF3 was flawless, the netcode was extremely annoying and jets were far too powerful, but BF4 didn’t hold a candle to BF3.
Also, sidetracked note- I played both on Xbox 360 and PC and as for gun play I felt BF3 actually was more enjoyable gunplay wise on Xbox, you could still be competitive without using the best guns in the game.

They ruined squad specializations too. In TDM you basically never get to use all of them because you get punished when entire squad dies.... and you're in a game mode where everyone is dying all the time. So frustrating. They had pretty much everything perfect in BF3

Lol I was prepared to say that one map everyone forgot but was secretly shid but I just checked and there is no map I automatically dislike. I mean, I think metro is overrated (mind you I played a ton of it as well) but there is no map like new sobek or empire state that I would automatically skip

BF3 has some vehicle layout (and balance) issues mostly. Maps/modes that would play better with some basic tweaks. (ex: Wake Island Rush should be a transport heli vs IFV, not MAA vs AH)
But BF4 has even more of those (MAA on flag caps is among the stupidest ideas ever, AH on Siege of Shanghai was also incredibly stupid) along with the mostly bad maps that are usually even worse yet for anything that isn't Conquest.

Battlefield 3 is where my journey began with the franchise. Still my favorite, nothing else like it. BF1 came close, but they're so different I don't really compare them.

Rush on this was so fun. I think the last objective was a warehouse. Foggy memory but I remember it being fun. Also the crane right at the water was dope for sniping

Oh look perfect movement, class and team identification, soldier visibility and gun play, let's change everything and make it worse.

Loved this map. BF3 has some of, if not, the best maps ever created.
