Battlefield 3

[caMoGFC]

also i took a pic of that stupid bluescreen i seem to get 1 every 10 deaths or so that nobody else seems to get.

it actually looks cleaner in the pic than on screen where there are these blurry waves...also it looked way worse the other night when my brightness settigns were at default and i could already barely see a thing

 

[Mkcaptain]

I get that as well Camo. It's really annoying

 

[Slash_LP]

Anyone else get that IRNV scope yet? It's ****ing beastly, even if it means playing the game through a green filter.

Yes, never tried it though.

And Camo I get that respawn screen fog every now and then.

Any PC players having troubles connecting to servers?

Did some work last night. Got my spm up to 380+ and my w/l up to 1.8 & k/d up to 1.4. Stats were shit beforehand thanks to all the US lobbies during the closed beta (spm 250 wl 1.0 kd 1.0)

Had a great time abusing the radio spawn becon, whenever we lost a base I wait for the next section of the map to open then find a place to dump the becon in the previous base. Spawn behind the enemy ferdayz run a bit a shoot em in the back, die and do it all again. Pulled quite a few ace ribbons and 8+ kd games doing this and even a 17 streak.

Very cheap and I hope it gets nerfed in the full release cause this will kill rush. They'll have to disable the ability to plant a radio becon outside of the current base IMO...

870 is insane with flachettes. Have unlocked frag rounds and slugs but have not tried them.

UMP can really pick off at range in semi auto mode, 5 suppressed rounds job done. Is ridiculous in close and medium with zero recoil on full auto. Bordering on OP.

How do you check stats??
after each game... there is the total thing on the bottom right which for me says:
"total time played: 1.57"
"SPM: 590"
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
PS.... I seem to be the only one going for stations... the rest of my team are camping noobs.
P.P.S Well done cats

 

[nicko99]

argh, i cant connect to the servers on PC.

Do you mean you're not connecting from the web browser when you pick a server? If so, I had the same problem but using ctrl+F5 each time seems to do the trick.

Is your real name displayed under your profile in Origin, when your friends access your page?

I'm not sure as I haven't written in my name, but at the bottom of the "edit profile" page there is a box you can tick or not tick which says
"show personal info on profile"
So I guess if you have that unticked, people won't see your name, D.O.B, etc.

I haz this gun... M40A5 bolt action.

Ironsights are beautiful, a headshot machine, just run no attachments for a pure experience.

UMP is a boss.

Shut it down via Task Manager.

I was worried about this game from all the feedback but it's still battlefield (mind you I've only played BC2). Just needs vehicles in and the bugs to be fixed (of which mind you there are plenty). The gameplay and the visuals are fantastic however.

Anyone point me towards the PC beta?

 

[anti_]

i cant seem to join any pc servers...

 

[illnino]

Anyone else getting d/c'd from a lot of games on 360? Seem to get through about 3/4 of a map before it happens. Extremely frustrating.

You need to install Origin, then it should appear in the free games section.

Just checked my battlelog today and realized of the 6 games i played today, all of them were losses

I'm hoping most of the people playing atm are just CoD kiddies trying the game out because there are some horrible players around making me rage especially the ****ing noob today laying next to an mcom and not disarming it when the enemy had 5 tickets left ....although it did give me my best game of 58-20 and a score over 6500

 

[Arecsa]

The fail-log is ****ing useless. Apparently my friends are playing the PS3 version magically through their PC. **** me. What a piece of shit this thing is.

 

[Premiers04]

I made a BigFooty platoon so feel free to join it

i can't make my mind up on this game...i've prob played about 3-4 hours of it in total and i still haven't seen the last set of objectives.

mayyyybe tells you there's something wrong with the map design.

i hope they release another map/game mode before the beta is closed.

 

[Jabso]

anti it's an easy answer but you are probably playing with and against people who don't know how to play as a team. They're probably just out there to kill each other and not attacking in teams just one by one. When that happens the defenders will win because they only have to camp near the points, pick off the few people going for the objective and the rest just have to kill blokes like in COD.

I was in a team that dominated on both attack and defence about 5 times in a row.

It probably does need a bit more balancing as I think the difficulty is a bit random. The last point should be a struggle but it's usually the quickest. Each set of comm stations need to be a longer struggle to capture.

This is honestly one of the worst things I've played.

Took me 30 minutes just to get into a game last night, and when I eventually did, everyone was just frozen in their spawn positions; couldn't move an inch. Then when I suicided, it wouldn't let me rejoin the game. Tried to play this again with a mate just before, couldn't enter a match. I'd get to the black loading screen, I'd hear gunshots and explosions going off in the background, then nothing would happen. Actually got into a match, played for 5 minutes, only for it to freeze up and force me to restart my console. Then there's the fact people can have half their body disappear under the map in the open park area... Anyone else having these problems on Xbox? Surely this will all be fixed by the time the game comes out?

From the breif time I've actually been able to play this game properly it's been alright, nothing special. Lot's of people camping in prone in bushes. Certainly won't be going out and buying it straight away.

This beta has been an absolute disaster for the game's promotion. They should of publicly released conquest/Caspian Border. It's that simple.
