Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

Oh no definitely!

But we are all too used to seeing PC games dumbed down because of the development being led on consoles, it makes a refreshing change to see the PC used to its full potential!

Destruction is looking more over the top as more vids come out, look how big a hole those 5.56's were punching into that wall. :|

It did look pretty ridiculous :/ couple bullets just blew away half the wall

Yeah but dont worry guys, that is console footage, not like that on the pc, they have dialled down the destruction on consoles.

I cannot wait to jump on the BF3 softcore server and punk all of your little dweebs from OCUK (who only score points through giving each other medic or ammo packs - based upon your signature images). Massive lol! Face! I'm on a boat mother ******!!!!!

Needing a crosshair on screen with auto restore of health plus 3d spotting/hacking = punks!

Quoted for the Ridicule.

From what I gather, everyone does that already so make sure you clear your way up

http://www.play.tm/news/33725/no-ma...ween-the-different-versions-of-battlefield-3/ - I hope this is just spin to put console buyers minds at ease and the PC version looks a whole lot better.

I don't think there really will be a massive difference. It'll be like playing it on a mid/low spec PC, with a controller. What other differences are you expecting there to be?

Never mind on hardcore. Or as i prefer to call it, "shooting fish in a barrel mode". The gustav is beyond a joke. Seriously, the guys that developed bfbc2 must know sod all about weapons. Submachine guns and shotguns that shoot 200 yards+, cg on infantry. Who was the military consultant on the game, action man by any chance.

well the CG is used to destroy light structures like houses etc to kill infantry because it's HESH instead of a shaped one.

plus insurgents, rebels and paramilitaries the world over use rpg 7's on infantry.

Players limit, dedicated servers, maps, extended clan options, console, DirectX 11 visuals, higher resolution, support for multiple monitors and a range of controllers, proper 3D support, exclusive DLC, regular patches, no auto-aim, adjustable FOV, multi-core support, proper SLI/Crossfire scaling.

That's only a few from the top of my head

The console version will be <30fps with no vsync, and no anti-aliasing, not pretty.

Although that said I played BF2MC/BC1/BF1943 extensively on console before crossing over to BC2, and it is playable, but the game is so much better at higher FPS.
