Down to 600 KB/sec now
i find that origin maxed my connection at 2.5MB/s .... till VM throttling came in and then was on about 650KB/s.
the speed never dithered for me though, it was constantly at one of those speeds

Did anyone see this?
Apparently they're "discussing commo rose"
EDIT: I really want the PAGE UP / PAGE DOWN buttons to be Affirmative / Negative again

May have said it just because it's what people want to hear, or it could be that they are indeed thinking about it.
That would be awesome
If they werent seriously considering it, why would they even mention it?
I think that if they are talking about it it's a step in the right direction.
While I really like the quick q key, it would be nice to have more options, I often find myself wanting to say thanks but cant.

i hope they bring the rose back.... not so much thinking that it "dumbed" it down with just the Q key....
more the fact that it doesn't always work... say you need ammo, you need ot look around until you see some with ammo, and then aim at them, then spam Q til it hopefully registers.... and even then it may not work or they may not notice.
where as if you have the rose, you can select to say NEED AMMO! or MEDIC! without having to scour the landscape for the appropriate personnel. and that it lets all applicable soldiers know that you are in need.
so i think it would actually be quicker with the rose, and give a greater chance of someone dropping you supplies.
when i'm running about as a medic i'm always looking out for the medic symbols when people are in need. even if they haven't requested it. it's the purpose to keep them alive so as medic i spend more time just running about throwing packs down for people. but when i need a medic i find that most people are just ignorant!
chasing a medic for about 20-30m spamming Q and screaming MEDIC at him and doesn't bat an eyelid... start shooting him in the back though... then he drops a medic pack

aye only to get killed in the process lol
Is this just because it is the alpha build, I mean the fake reflection in the scope was in BF2, it looks lame. In 2011 it should update in real time like it does in ARMA and RO2. Anyone know if this will change to real time reflection.

Well its still alpha so we can hope?
But more than likely it will just be a snap of somewhere in the map you're on, can you confirm if it has the same reflection when in the metro?
Also, I would prefer it if when you zoomed in, you zoomed in on the actual scope, but not on the surrounding view, a'la Red Orchestra

Interesting thread here for those with access - http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/forum/threadview/2811510711343083191/2/
Looks like there may be maps based in Rome and Berlin.

can you resize that...its killing me on android
Done.
You know if BF3 was really the lead platform on PC it would have realistic scopes as seen in the vid below for the amazing looking RO2.
if that game is anything like the original standalone release it will be boring and clunky as hell! is RO2 going to have better graphics than crysis 2 because its a "real" pc game?
sorry... what?
It looks like areas are being cut, I mean a fake scope display when not zoomed is so 2005. If the consoles can't do it then I guess they just don't bother with it on PC. I quote
"The biggest difference between the PC and console version of Battlefield 3 is that we have 64 players on PC and 24 players maximum on console," said DICE boss Patrick Bach. "The rest is more or less the same: we use the same engine, the same technology, the same animation system, the same lighting system. Our aim is to give the player the exact same experience and not try to dumb down the console version."
