Battlefield 3 Beta Version

October 1, 2011 in Gaming

Battlefield 3, one of the most wanted games this year, had released its beta version on September 29th for Xbox 360, PS3 and the PC. Thousands of players have already started enjoying the entirely-new game just after it went public. However, since it is only a beta version, there is only one game mode and one map available to the public. They have decided to use rush as the beta’s default game mode- possibly due to the popularity in Battlefield: Bad Company 2. And since this is only a beta, I have personally experienced some minor bugs that can be easily fixed before the release. There are also no vehicles available in the beta mode, so us gamers can only enjoy half of the game’s full potential. The beta only goes up to October 10th, so if you want to try it out, I recommend you to get it as soon as possible.

Please note that there will be a full-length review on this game once the game comes out…
