@LukeAlmighty @Tactical @King_Porgi @Shadowman311 @bleedingphoenix I remember my disappointment with Battlefield 3 like it was yesterday. It was the first and last time I really bought into the hype for an upcoming video game. That was in 2011.
The marketing materials promised the most realistic destruction physics ever. I had never played a Battlefield game before so while waiting for the release of BF3 I tried out Battlefield Bad Company 2, to this day one of the most fun campaigns I've played and the multiplayer was fun too, and the destructible buildings impressed me enough to become even more hyped about BF3.
Then BF3 finally released, and while the multiplayer was fun it actually seemed like there was less destruction compared to BFBC2. The campaign was also nowhere near as fun as BFBC2, not that anyone else ever cared or even played the campaigns, it was all about owning noobs in multiplayer.

In my search for the most impressive destructible object physics in games the best I found at the time was for a shitty game called Red Faction Guerrilla, everything else about the game was mediocre at best.
