Battlefield 3 (Official Thread) Pt. 2

Yeah, I started getting this choppy lag recently and started to think my computer was going to sh!t..

A possible new DLC / map-pack.
(Or well it seems the DLC is all but confirmed but there's not much info about it or when it will launch.)

 

What about a person who every single time he gets killed lets rip with a torrent of ***** based insults? Whilst playing on a German server? Should he be banned?

Some bans are deserved and swearing bans are legit if the content is worth being banned for, i.e does it go way beyond the content that is in the game. If so then maybe a ban / timeout is well deserved.

 

i read a couple things about it and, i get the impression these maps will be part of the regular rotation (free for everyone) kinda hope this is true, or it might split the community further, theres already too few servers that have the B2K dlc. so another paid dlc could make things worse!

now, the DLC after the "all american pack" could be a paid expansion, and that's what, imo they're going to do.

 

hope its free!

 

doubt it. probably going to be $10 or $15.

 

New maps great!I bet those new maps will be absoluely brilliant if your a CoD fan

 

i read somewhere that the american maps will be in the regular rotation? so if true i bet there's a chance they'll be free and, then the next dlc will be a true expansion like vietnam was to bc2 ... who the fook knows with EA though!

 

No idea about BF3 but in BC2, my fps nearly doubled with the same gfx card.

 

Grrrrrrrrrr!!! Past 2 days now i have been unable to join any servers.... in my ping it just says "-", and when I click to join a server nothing happens, even the game Manager does nothing, it just stays unchanged and says "Game Manager Up To Date"....... I can browse servers and see whos online etc, just won't let me play?!?!?!?!


EDIT: must be a chrome issue....ie 9 working.....ugh

 

Anyone else unlock the G3A3? Man, I thought it was going to be weak, but it turned out to be a complete beast

 

People swear in heat of moment etc but there is no need to type swear words.

 

I love the G3A3, i like the effectiveness of the single fire for long range, and the fact that the recoil resets very quickly. Cool weapon really, and needs to be treated differently to the other AR's.:biggun:

 

i didnt say there was a need, but does it really offend you that much if someone types a couple swear words? it's really no big deal especially since the game itself has a ton of profanity that you have to listen to. turn chat off if you can't deal with a couple swear words. i dont get it ...

 

Anyone else having issues with BF3 in Chrome???

 

Use Battlelog Standalone and save some memory utilization.

http://bf3.realmware.co.uk/battlelog-standalone/

Windows Internet Explorer 64bit uses 109,640 K

Chrome uses 106,832 K

Battlelog Standalone uses 76,344 K

 

Well it's one of the two assault rifles which uses more powerful ammo, I think the Scar uses the same ammo. So it does 30 instead of the usual 25 damage. But the drawback is low firerate

here's a damage chart

33 megabytes of system RAM savings? wow.

 

Even ignoring the game's own profanity, I still find it ironic that people get bothered by others swearing in a game that where the object is to run around and kill each other and even slice each other's throats open.

 

hey guys is there a fix out for the stuttering cut scenes?

When i turn off vertical sync the cut scenes and the beginning part of the game play fine.
