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 :p

Really quite common to trial big fixes on different builds alOng side main game. I wonder which game will get the most love/care/support from devs and free
 
Anyone figured out best sound settings yet?

Usual trick with Heaphones and Creative is to set Windows to 5.1 - Creative Console to Headphones with CMSs-3D 'on' and then set in game sounds to 5.1.

Just can't figure it out on BF3. :(
 
I'm sure it has already been posted but anyways...LOLS!

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!

no buying required :D

CMSS-3D sounds garbage, I get better sound positioning with headphones selected and CMSS off, war tapes selected in game. I'm blown away by the sound quality using 595 cans.

I imagine there will be several servers in the OcUK community set up for BF3...

I think the game might have its own built in HRTF style system - I noticed when watching videos of it on youtube the audio had surround positioning using headphones just from the stereo stream.
 
War Tapes sounds absolutely retarded when you're inside a small room, it did in Bad Company anyway, not tried it in this yet. Every footstep sounds like a bomb is going off.
 
They need to remove thumb from ass, add more servers and get quickmatch working again. This beta has a pathetically low amount of servers.

i came up with an idea, not a complete scripting solution as well :p :)

Thats my point :P the backend management of such a system, unless the server had an API callback to handle those kinda features, would be quite a lot of manual hassle and open to misuse.
 
Had a quick blast last night, had that fullscreen bug where my taskbar was still visible, than had a nice hard freeze-up, remembered i am due for a fresh OS install and will have to re-d/l the beta again. Back a few things up and time to get that fresh install going.

Had to laugh at using ak-74u, last time i used that gun was in COD BO and it was overpowered in that, using bog standard version on BF3 was quite a shock to the system :)

I think the graphics have taken a step back from BC2 personally. Even on ultra the graphics seem more cartoony to me.

That's exactly what I thought, plus the jerkiness of the game. Not enjoyable whatsoever.

Back To BC2 until final Release (may even cancel my pre-order).

If it's Vram that's causing the jerking then DICE have failed miserably as so many people only have 1GB.

Fingers crossed final will be good and ATI fix the stuttering.
