MOTD
Been making my way through the single-player portion of Battlefield 3, and while I enjoy it a lot, there also seems to be an equal amount of frustration. For starters, your squad AI seems to be either blind or use bent barrels. They miss enemies that are right in front of them, rendering them all but useless. The gameplay variety — tank battles, dogfighting, bombing runs — gives it a nice change of pace from the infantry-style battles.
Apart from meeting up with some friends for pub food and beers, we have no particular plans today, so errands and DVR watching it is!
Watched the newest episode of Sons Of Anarchy last night and must admit that there seems to be a lot more action going on than last season. Good stuff!
