Hitboxes are massive, the amount of time I have just gone behind a wall to take cover then suddenly die is annoying.

Nades are weak and they don't even roll.

yeah while in prone position, close to the wall, if an enemy sniper spots me and shoots in my direction, I try to move behind the cover. However in doing so mine gets killed. I was thinking that perhaps the movement is slow but it does seem like hitboxes are pretty large.

Or rocks!

But if you want to be almost immortal, use a bush

Be advised, i got shot through rocks this morning, was prone and rather confused.

Well, Metro is getting tedious now, really need a Conquest map. Also, I keep getting accused of cheating. :rolleyes:

LOVE IT!

Is that the app you need to install as part of your web browser so as to see the game servers?

No idea, its when i go to start the game from my origin screen, a window opens and mentions battlelog and aload of mumbo jumbo and app not found.

Happened to me as well, those big rocks on the left hand side of the park in Metro, about 100 yards from the A mcom, if you are starting from the US side.

Check to see if it's installed in Programs, if so uninstall it. If not, what browser you using?

torN · 1 Oct 2011 at 10:45

anyone have a problem with player names and icons disappearing ingame? I have to tell players apart by camo (difficult with the recon kits).

'Wes · 1 Oct 2011 at 10:46

I've killed enough of my team to know what you're talking about.

Gux · 1 Oct 2011 at 10:48

guys do you know how i can run the game at 1768x992 rez full screen without the black lines at the sides of my screen?

my monitor is 23 inch but when runing at that rez i am only using 22 inch, the rest are black lines which is annoying

Yep it was installed but i unistalled it, using IE9.

FirebarUK · 1 Oct 2011 at 10:50

This might sound silly but where are screenshots saved to? I see there is a screenshots folder in the BF3 Open Beta folder in my home directory but nothing in there. Is it a different key?

ScottehBotteh · 1 Oct 2011 at 10:52

Bit of a let down so far.

Dont know whether its my settings/hardware but the infantry movement/combat is more like '42 or even RO ( which was a parcel ), very clunky. A backward step from BF2/BC2.

A PC game without being able to change mouse binds via the game menus ( even if its just removed for the beta, its the first buttons most people change ) :confused:

Anybody else getting their virus software detecting malware with Origin when downloading BF3? I got it twice using Avira anti virus.

Use a different browser and reinstall the app. Also make sure you're not using Avast!

Could do worse like OCZ that don't even run at their rated timings.

I'm using Avast, only caused a few problems when experimenting with the join as party and notifications in battlelog. Simply open Avast and goto real time shields, and click on web shield, expert settings, exclusions and add "http://battlelog.battlefield.com".

I think it's sorted it for me.
