Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

[FlyingPig]

Installed beta today, had a few hours of good fun.

Two observations / questions:

1) Am I the only one where the sounds seems a bit subdued? I have a 5.1 system but I have to turn the volume way up, much more than in other games

2) Any OCUK people playing together or are we all on our own in trying to get on a random server? (for me it wasn't too bad actually considering my very high ping)

Really laggy servers now.

 

[silversurfer]

I live in hope, caspian is still an option listed therefore you never know

Im more concerned that bf3 is not working on win3.11 This was a great OS yet EA wont put the effort in to program bf3 in pure machine code, they must be lazy and skip the small amount of work required. :/

no more lag

Caspian lagged?

I've seen a number of posts about this

is an OCUK server going to be set up for BF3?

ive had a an idea, if the shop buys a server, it can reward its customers that shop at OCUK with access to the BF3 server!

i.e. Spend Over £500 at OCUK and get 1 Year access to our OCUK BF3 server!

It's really irritating, i get a proper night of BF, and i can't give it a full go, instead of 15 minute games.

Whilst I own and like RO:2 HOS its also plagued by bugs.

Which I reckon will get patched faster than an ea game

Lol

 

[Strife212]

Sorry to say but this game is going to die on its ass, by not supporting XP i fear EA have lost their minds lol at least 50 percent of people i know still run XP so even people who want to buy it cant unless they upgrade, which only the hardcore gamers will actually do, as its a waste of time upgrading your OS for 1 game. Well done EA another banana skin of your own making

lol xp

Meh. I prefer the PP2K, ridiculously accurate over long distance.

Got called a hacker in the last server I was on, was on a 14 kill streak before they shut down . I love the G17C

However I'm not a fan of the cod-esque "OMFG YOU ARE BETTER THAN ME BLATANTLY HACKING!?!?!!!!oneone" Fed up with it in Alteriwnet, can't help being ranked one on isnipe servers...

 

[Jono8]

There is still one caspian server running. What is the password?

 

[Neil79]

Lol @ RoH2

The only developers to have released a full retail game for sale only for them to see that it's so bad they've gone back to the beta version

Yeah, I have to turn up the volume a lot for this game.

 

[Strife212]

I've noticed that in Bad Company as well.

The best way I can describe it is it's as if everything is happening really far in the distance.

 

[RavenXXX2]

Sounds amazing with headphones.

 

[weyland yutani]

In a stange way it sound like you're underwater at times.
