I love how Battlefield 3 makes a big deal out of things that would realistically be a big deal. I feel like in most video games, you see a T-90, you see an enemy fighter jet, hell, you even end up fighting a war with Russia, and the game just kind of nods it off because it's expected of a military FPS. In Battlefield 3, when the characters are attacked by a T-90, they panic and run, are surprised to have even survived, and cheer when it gets taken down. When they see an enemy jet, they again, panic and go for cover as fast as they can. When getting into a firefight with the Russian VDV, they're shocked, scared and don't even want to engage for fear of starting a world war. These are soldiers that are maybe veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, anti insurgency conflicts. Some of the officers and maybe a few of the NCO's may have taken part in the Invasion of Iraq in 2003 and went up against light, outdated Iraqi armor, but it would have been few and far between and mostly dealt with by our own aircraft. I doubt any of the infantrymen in Blackburn's squad have ever come up against real enemy armor like a T-90, a modern current generation main battle tank, let alone enemy aircraft like a modern Su-25, before the invasion of Iran. Or infantry as well trained as the Russian military in comparison to insurgents or even the regular Iraqi Army. Going up against all that, going up against a Russian infantry unit, that would be a big deal for them, and this game shows it. I always felt like that was remarkable and something lost in Battlefield 4 onwards.
BF4’s campaign was a disaster, aside from how buggy it was I mean. The characters falling goodness-knows-how-far from a dam they blew up only to brush it off was probably the pinnacle of the bullshit.
I definitely agree with you. When I first played this campaign I was (still am) really interested in history and geopolitics and such. So it really was a breath of fresh air playing BF3's much more grounded campaign after coming off the bombastic ridiculousness that was MW2 (not like I don't love that game for how absurd it is). I definitely loved how when 1st Recon sees the VDV guys and gear they shit their pants at the realization that the unthinkable just happened and their default reaction is just what I'd imagine I'd be thinking "this is waaay over our heads" and "what the fuck did we just start WW3?" Add to that the fact that you and your team are completely cut off from the outside world, all you know is your mission. Lingering in the back of Blackburn's mind, everyone's mind probably, is what the hell is going on out there, at the tactical and operational level all they know is that the Russians are between them and their objective. Yet, for all they know, outside of that valley in northern Iran where they're fighting the whole world is on fire. That sense of dread is palpable. Awesome mission from an awesome game.
Yes America has been fighting insurgencies and conducting policing actions across the globe for years now. But we gained more combat experience then any other and that hasn't made our strategy or our serviceman and women, any less lethal. I will ask this. When was the last time Russia fought a 1st world power, when did they come up against well trained highly capable advisory? "Please dont say Georgia or Ukraine" Or when have they met a US piloted F22 or a US crewed M1A2 Abrams in combat? At least during my time. The Marines still trained to fight near peer advisories, in any clime and place. That said, in a scenario the game presented. Both sides would be taken aback and have reservations about the engagement. But an order to close with and destroy the enemy by fire and close combat, is a legal order. No matter how one feels in uniform.
@Eculs That's true the British do have lots of experience calling America for help in every world war so far. On the real. They are some good well trained dudes and I'm glad that we are allies. Truly am grateful to them and all others nations contributions to the war on terror.
@Eculs Sorry if this becomes rant. I agree with some of your points. I'm going to quote myself here "We gained more combat experience then any other" and I stand by that. Allow me to elaborate. Yes the British empire has a great military history and it pains me to say it, because we understand its significance. But it's just that. History. The sun has set on the Empire some time ago and she has also suffered some catastrophic losses. You may have heard this before, but nobody cares about who you used to be. They only care who you are now. Its goes with people and nations alike. USA is still a super power. We have highest defense budget, exceeding the combined budgets of the 7 top nations. We have a highly trained and motivated fighting force drawn in voluntarily. Disputeded to have the most technologically advanced and better equipped warfighters then our peers. We are still a global force able to project our power at a moments notice, around the globe from our forward bases to our massive naval power at sea, even from our own soil. As it stands currently. America is fighting wars in 7 different countries. With a high operating tempo, even on our SF groups. On that topic SAS are the first in modern history, but not in antiquity. Fun fact the Marines Raiders was started by Churchills suggestion to President Roosevelt after the success of the SAS. In the end the UK cant project its power like we can, nore can it contest massive theaters of operations as we do. America is a very large nation with a great deal of diverse climates and terrain and during my time the Marines. I became acquainted with at least 4 of the six climates and every type of terrain and condition imaginable. But thats just me. It's not uncommon for first world powers to have troops train and become familiar and acclimate to foreign environments. Not to mention WW2 sent men and material to every point on the compass to fight, so it's not some special thing. Lastly we have tons of modern and early 20th century combat experience to pull from. Especially our active duty and veterans communities that dwarfs your own. Not to mention the wealth of knowledge and experience from our allies and so forth. With that said I stand by my comment.
My thought on the bf5 they should of continue from bf4 they should of give this new bf a different name instead of bf5 cuz bf4 is in the modern age can't go back in the past that's my thought.
Fuck WW2 games. We've had WAY MORE than enough WW2 games at this point aince Ps1. It's getting old. More modern war games it's where it should really be at now!
metalnat27 There are a bunch of Modern War games if you’re wondering, 10 WW2 games and people start to whine, being disrespectful, but 1000 Modern War games get released with characters that don’t even exist, people don’t care :D Let me tell you, a bunch of games is not what matters, what matters is if the games are authentic enough to be remembered.
That scene with the Russian transports flying directly overhead is one of my favorites of any war game. The air strike segment was also very memorable.
@vann tedd I agree. But the Russians prefer engaging as close as possible to optimize the accuracy on the range of their AKs. The Vietnamese had the same hold them by the belt strategy.
I love how this takes place at the same time as a multiplayer Caspian border match where it's still the US vs Russia. Neat little details like that are why I adore this game so much.
@@fadedgam3r look at the radio tower. It's the exact same one from Caspian border. If I'm not mistaken it also collapses at one point during the mission aswell, same as Caspian border.
The multiplayer is a direct result from the campaign, and I believe it's on the wiki. Same with Bad Company 2. After Marlowe's group beats Kirilenko, the Russians invade the U.S. and U.S. held territories which is the multiplayer.
The Komyeta I don't know anything about how that works honestly. I tried to look it up but I don't think anything has been said about that. I guess you could assume that it happens as a different squad during the same time frame as the campaign, maybe it's a spin off, or maybe it's all not a part of the main story. I don't think we'll ever get that question answered today though unless someone asked the devs or something like that.
I love how the CO at the end of the video is literally responsible for basically what I'm assuming is his entire company being wiped out being that the entire light armour column he was responsible for is now wiped out for a fucking straight forward assault on what could also be assumed is a company to two company sized force. Does show that for every Marine lost the Russians in this fight lost just as much if not more but at the cost of all his Marines. Save for maybe a few platoons. Assuming he kept some in reserve just in case back up on the hill. This dude was getting fragged either way. And he still has the balls to ask the what I'm assuming are the only two Marines left in his task force to complete their mission. Dude....you don't even need a quicktime event to pull the trigger on his ass.
@@IS0T0P3_90 Every close combat mission is pain in the ass in every game. I played the remaster a while ago and this mission is hard but the others not so much. I dunno
As far as i remember, this entire fight was a 4-way battle. It was US vs russian airborne vs kafarov's security vs some russian spetsnaz guys with Vladimir in lead. Now I know it was an entire other mission but still, thats the same battle.
@@modifiedsparrow7462 Not really a fourway because the Russian Airborne Troops were purely there to cut off the Americans from entering the valley so the GRU operatives could reach Kafarov first.
I really love the acting in this game. It’s crazy how they are comfortable containing and controlling insurgency in the beginning of the campaign, but when they have to fight equally matched opponents, they understand their limits.
@SirTownsy96 true not gonna lie though I did like 4 though just because they added alittle more stuff like how they made 3 in terms of guns and equipment
damn battlefield 3 had a totally badass campaign. these vids are really throwing me back!! this whole damn campaign was amazing. f-18 to tanks to sniping.
Juan Gonzales what I loved about it is that it had a very immersive feel unlike the newer battlefields. Battlefield 1 and 5 were less linear but I couldn’t say the same about them being as immersive of bf3
sad to hear they will never make a remake of battlefield 3... Battlefield 3 in the newest frostbite engine, oh man that would get a game of the year award...
@@trolowanytroll nah imo it kinda needs to get updated and maintained. It doesn't need a remake, but in 5 years, why not? Dice and EA could make a lot of money off of making a remaster of a really successful battlefield
This mission was an emotional rollercoaster. At this point you have become greatly attached to your squad members, you are faced against insurmountable odds giving you a sense of heroism. Then are met with the grim fate of losing Campo and Matkovic after overcoming those odds, which unfortunately came with a price.
@@shanetanner4654 I wouldn't say they smashed them. By the time the battle was over, only Blackburn, Montes and Cole were left standing of Misfit 1-3. Blackburn then says that himself, Cole, Montes and only a couple of others assaulted Kaffarov's villa. So yeah, they beat back the Russians, but not before the entire unit basically got decimated.
Dude special forces units can wear whatever camo. My boss was Air Force TACP and told me he had to wear Army camo for a while and also multi cam before the AF even adopted it. Stop getting hung up on shit
Let’s be fair and remember that this is a specialized Marine unit. Recon Marines are not a standard unit and also Russian paratroopers are not Spetsnaz. This is a depiction of a special operations force on force engagement and it is done really well, entrenched with a great story. Loved this game more than any other BF! Need a remaster for current gen.
This was my first game on my first console, the xbox 360. It will always be a very special game to me. Thank you Dice for this great game and the memories it made.
4:00 I really like how accurate is the engine sound of the planes at this scene. I heard them a lot in real life and it's exactly like that. (except it's a lot louder)
My favorite mission. 4:30 onwards is absolutely immersive and if you turn off the HUD, it’s absolutely beautiful. This game is and still is ahead of its time.
My fav mission was Operation Guillotine, turning off the hud and turning up the volume and all you hear was all those gunshots echo throughout the city
@@N75911_ :(((( but we wanna have big pewpew like those xD Although, I think we would have to sell half the army and the president's wife to get one lol
These aren't Spetsnaz, they're paratroopers deployed to delay the US advance... Dima and his men were the only Spetsnaz during this battle and I don't think they ever directly engaged the Marines except at the very end of the mission when Blackburn meets Dima.
What bugged me about cole , beside his glory hound attitude , was his lack of self awareness in situations. Sure technically doctrine was on their side but this still would be a serious international incident that would escalate tensions tremendously. Not in the military but I would assume he would’ve been awaiting severe repercussions from higher ups due to the dangerously flawed decision he undertook to take on a Russian battalion .
I was just thinking same thing. Surely they were outnumbered 5/1 at the minimum. I don't believe they would have just ran at an enemy like that as well.
@@Aralakh919and on top of that, after all his task force was wiped out or damaged severely and 2 of his brothers die bc of his orders, he has the balls to ask the remaining mens under his command to push forward and complete his mission, I wanted to blow his head so badly at that point tho.
I recently started to play BF3 again after I fixed my computer. And youtube is suggesting me your videos. Too many memories. This is one of my favourite scene in this game. BF3 itself has a great story and you can really feel involved with your emotions: Adrenaline, fear, joy. Thanks for your upload!
The amount of personality between these characters is amazing. I wish we have a campaign and characters like these guys again in the next battlefield game
Even deep down you know it's a game and you certainly will survive. It is still shocking that they let your platoon facing an entire VDV Battalion just landed on the ground. They perfectly build up the stress and atmosphere, hell BF3 really did their homework. The campaign is amazing.
I remember replaying this mission, brought back so many memories. That was my favorite mission to play at all times. RIP Matkovic and Campo, you guys will be missed. Like if you also miss them (I know you guys wont but I dont care anyways...)
I remember playing this mission. It is the first USMC mission to fight against Blue Berets (Nickname for VDVs) rather than PLR. But unbeknownst to them, the VDVs were fighting to stall the USMC's search for Kaffarov.
When firing rockets keep in mind that a blast comes from the rear too and it can kill allies behind you. I love the detail this game had. Meanwhile on COD you can probably fire one in a locker and be alright.
Gottem. Not to mention, usually bots call people names for no reason to illicit a reaction. That's probably why the person here called you an idiot for an otherwise harmless, albeit dark joke.
God I still remeber this came out, my dad rented it at first. When I came home from school and saw this game I was blown away. Nothing still compares to this game bar none.
The ai in this level was clearly given special attention more akin to a chaotic scenario where everything isn't clear cut you get flanked without even seeing them flank you

@@shanetanner4654 russian troops can't measure up to angry marines.
@Klee Ai LOL wrong.
Marine Recon wears multicam camo*
Special Forces:Am I a joke to you?
Lil_Ghost 32 this comment is seriously underrated.
Force recon has been known to wear multicam. They aren't restricted to Marpat or Desert Marpat
He’s navy eod
Dude special forces units can wear whatever camo. My boss was Air Force TACP and told me he had to wear Army camo for a while and also multi cam before the AF even adopted it. Stop getting hung up on shit
Isn’t marine recon SOF? Or is that MARSOC Raiders?
Let’s be fair and remember that this is a specialized Marine unit. Recon Marines are not a standard unit and also Russian paratroopers are not Spetsnaz. This is a depiction of a special operations force on force engagement and it is done really well, entrenched with a great story.
Loved this game more than any other BF! Need a remaster for current gen.
This was my first game on my first console, the xbox 360. It will always be a very special game to me. Thank you Dice for this great game and the memories it made.
14:54 that “HOLY FUCKING SHIT” line is actually really intense
4:00 I really like how accurate is the engine sound of the planes at this scene. I heard them a lot in real life and it's exactly like that. (except it's a lot louder)
"We're just gonna finish one war by starting another, that is out-fucking-standing!" is probably my favorite line of all the battlefield campaigns.
Well fuck it certainly feels weird getting this recommended while Russia just started invading Ukraine
My favorite mission. 4:30 onwards is absolutely immersive and if you turn off the HUD, it’s absolutely beautiful. This game is and still is ahead of its time.
My fav mission was Operation Guillotine, turning off the hud and turning up the volume and all you hear was all those gunshots echo throughout the city
0:55-0:58 feel bad for any veteran of Vietnam
T0xic that’s fucked up lmao
At first I thought that first Russian Transport was a AC-130
coming to kick some serious ass but nope. It's been to long so I had done forgot.
The AC-130 is only used by the USAF, and there are less than 20 of them in the world.
@@N75911_ France has some I believe or at least some variant
@@demoiselle_chris9466
It's much smaller.
@@N75911_ :(((( but we wanna have big pewpew like those xD Although, I think we would have to sell half the army and the president's wife to get one lol
The Russian transport planes that are seen throughout the mission are Antonov An-22’s. Today they are in limited service with the Russian Air Force.

I've been given these recommendations since like... 2015?
I love how BF3 always tried to make a big deal with realism in the campaign and then they forgot to add drivers to jeeps.
"They're in the trees!"
*VIETNAM FLASHBACK INTENSIFIES*
I expected the spetnaz to Kick windows and do back flips...
These aren't Spetsnaz, they're paratroopers deployed to delay the US advance... Dima and his men were the only Spetsnaz during this battle and I don't think they ever directly engaged the Marines except at the very end of the mission when Blackburn meets Dima.
That shit is only for the propaganda value, they dont do it normally
I think they use ot against the mafia only
I could just listen to purely audio and still be immersed. The sound design was that great, and it's a sound from 11 years ago. Just wow.
What bugged me about cole , beside his glory hound attitude , was his lack of self awareness in situations. Sure technically doctrine was on their side but this still would be a serious international incident that would escalate tensions tremendously. Not in the military but I would assume he would’ve been awaiting severe repercussions from higher ups due to the dangerously flawed decision he undertook to take on a Russian battalion .
I was just thinking same thing. Surely they were outnumbered 5/1 at the minimum. I don't believe they would have just ran at an enemy like that as well.
@@Aralakh919and on top of that, after all his task force was wiped out or damaged severely and 2 of his brothers die bc of his orders, he has the balls to ask the remaining mens under his command to push forward and complete his mission, I wanted to blow his head so badly at that point tho.

Panic claims another victim.
HP McDoogle i remember when that jet turned around, the scariest shit ever
I remember getting killed because I kept timing it wrong or was in the open just enough even behind cover
This is why, apart from physical or weapons training, phycological training and anti-panic training is a big part of military training.
I recently started to play BF3 again after I fixed my computer. And youtube is suggesting me your videos. Too many memories. This is one of my favourite scene in this game. BF3 itself has a great story and you can really feel involved with your emotions: Adrenaline, fear, joy.
Thanks for your upload!
So... Will we be seeing this in reality then?
The fact Russia is about to invade Ukraine and start WW3 makes this very chilling.
No it doesn’t lmao

10 years and the graphics still hold up. Heck they're even better than some 2020 FPSs.
Respect😎
BF3 had the best campaign best multi-player and the best theme I miss this game
Was perfect wasn't it :D Even had Co-op missions that were pretty cool, and if the campaign was co-op omg bro imagine
"okay so how many Battlefield recommendations would you give?"
*RUclips: Yes*
BF3 and BFBC2 were SO good. Back when gaming was gaming...
The bad company games were amaaaaaaazing
This honestly looks better than cod black ops 4

Yes
@@danielprado3611 nah hardline was a fun game especially hotwire with the chases and c4/rpg ambushes

Yes that's how paratroopers are supposed to work? The armor shows up later
@@MsNessbit these people have been indoctrinated by the tampered propaganda of the current Ukraine war.

DICE got Sekrit Dokuments too
3:01 : We gotta job to do
*Bell* : Ah shit here we go again
Ha, just what I was thinking
The amount of personality between these characters is amazing. I wish we have a campaign and characters like these guys again in the next battlefield game
Yeah. No
10:50 America enters Vietnam
10:52 Tet offensive
10:53 Chuck Noriss survives
Even deep down you know it's a game and you certainly will survive. It is still shocking that they let your platoon facing an entire VDV Battalion just landed on the ground. They perfectly build up the stress and atmosphere, hell BF3 really did their homework. The campaign is amazing.
Considering the amount of airpower America has, i wouldn't be surprised if a USMC platoon wipes out a VDV battalion.
@@menna7927 lol fucking cope, jarhead platoon has fucking nothing, get your stupid muh air power out here. dumb mutt.
He legit said they're in the trees. Shit man I think he had a dream about a vanilla milkshake in 1968.

"This is maneuver warfare, Sergeant. If you don't like it, you can go join the fucking Air Force!"
I laughed so fucking hard when he said that.
Ayy it came to life
Every BF3 video you upload is being recommended to me.
And I’m not complaining.
I remember replaying this mission, brought back so many memories. That was my favorite mission to play at all times.
RIP Matkovic and Campo, you guys will be missed.

I remember playing this mission. It is the first USMC mission to fight against Blue Berets (Nickname for VDVs) rather than PLR. But unbeknownst to them, the VDVs were fighting to stall the USMC's search for Kaffarov.
When you realize right now U.S were training in Ukraine to fight against Russia.
Thank you for uploading! Keep it up!!
BF4 has my favorite multiplayer, but BF3 has the best campaign in my opinion.(BC2 is a close second)
Battlefield 3 is the best
@memlord you probably havent played squad, this is a Hollywood movie at best
Always remember people:
When you dream about drinking a vanilla milkshake that means you're gonna get ambushed, so watch your flanks!
This about to be real life very soon
15:02 "FIND COVER! HIT THE DECK!"
*Fatally runs down the street*
When Matkovic said "THEY'RE IN THE TREES"

"Drinking a vanilla milkshake."
A foreshadowing of sorts of Matkovic's death?
10:54 the destruction by that grenade is comical, the Wall that he was ducking behind is the part still standing after the blast.
Lmao *grenade explodes right on em* *awkward silence* "Okay we're good to go"
One of my favorite battles in BF3 USMC vs VDV 1st Force Recon Marines vs Russian paratroopers
When firing rockets keep in mind that a blast comes from the rear too and it can kill allies behind you. I love the detail this game had. Meanwhile on COD you can probably fire one in a locker and be alright.
Pov : you're Ukrainian solider in 2022

Gottem. Not to mention, usually bots call people names for no reason to illicit a reaction.

Ukraine at 3:39
Too soon?
After Night Shift, I was feeling a physical need to see this mission's opening cutscene
The background sound of the music is of a Oscar when the russian aircaft appear till go down with the stinger
God I still remeber this came out, my dad rented it at first. When I came home from school and saw this game I was blown away. Nothing still compares to this game bar none.
Damn we might actually see this happening 😔
Yeah yeah sure whatever you say
Lets take a moment to remember Private Piles at 10:35 in front of that troop transport! God bless his tactically flawed soul!
"They're in the trees!"
Hey, ive seen this one
The ai in this level was clearly given special attention more akin to a chaotic scenario where everything isn't clear cut you get flanked without even seeing them flank you
0:57 When the trees don't speak Vietnamese...
well looks like we will be living this here shortly lol
To whoever is posting these, thank you
Love the panic that breaks out when the pilot turns around
I never played it but this campaign looks alot better than Battlefield 4
I played both and yeah I'd say this one is better. Feels more real somehow
It is better
Yea bf4 didn't really feel like you were invading china
@@deadlygeneral6798 Yeah it was kind of lame
Yeah Battlefield 4 I did and still play and the campaign doesn't seem as real or immersive. It was kinda boring tbh.
