Cool thanks mate, is the retail game likely to perform a lot better than the beta or is this the performance we can expect from the finished product.

When you hit 50% damage you lose control of the jet and then its health slowly depletes until death.

Does the same sort of thing happen with tanks? I hit something or something hit me as I was driving along, dunno what the hell it was but it bumped my tank's health down to 30 which continued depleting until it blew up =S

Probably the point of the extinguisher unlock. If you're dropping health you're more than likely on fire to some extent.

But from 50%, now engineers have manpads it's overkill.

I would assume so. I can take it depleting from say 10% but from 50 or 30, nah.
 
The Mouse sensitivity thing for vehicles is something else people have wanted since BC2, makes far more sense to have different sensitivity options for different vehicles. And not have to up your sensitivity on the fly on your mouse all the time. Worked in BF2, why not BF3?
 
Caspian border is definitely feeling like a battlefield game! Would really be enjoying this now over metro if it wasn't for the awful lag... every server i've been in so far has lagged like crazy for everyone.

Just makes it unplayable :(

Well the stingers not a guaranteed hit, Jets can evade them with a lot of tight turns. Ive had hits with the stinger on both Jets and Helo's and ive just damaged them, not disabled them. In fact its rare that i kill one outright, takes a couple of hits and even then it might just be a disabled plane.

Dice just need to wise up and equip aircraft with countermeasures by default.

I have that system but a 4870 512mb and I run mostly low settings, just wondering if a 6870 would be enough juice for this game.

Im running a single 6870 with stock i5 2500k and I was pleasently suprised by my performance on Caspian, getting between 40 and 70fps with a mix of high/ultra and medium shadows/post AA at 1080p.

I'm finding the jets don't really need it, but I play with twitch settings still (tried to go low sens, but I kept finding myself adjusting up in games).

1 thing i find really amusing, WHY is everyone saying "Air Vehicles" on that beta forum. We have a word for "Air Vehicles" its "Aircraft". :p

Cause some of them are liek 12, and some of them are not native English speaking. :p

You know what would be funny, if you couldn't get in a jet whilst alive and had to do it via spawning in them, yet you would still see a queue of people running around the runway. :D
 
Epic game on CB. This is more like it!

Looks much better than before as well i think.

Pics never look as good as the actual game:(

btw, not experiencing any lag or anything, all seemed fine to me. On a UK multiplay server.^^ http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf...Multiplay-107-50-off-battlefield3servers-com/


Just realised that, of course since i had to reinstall the game my settings were not the same so all the graphics settings were on low for these

I though the eye could only perceive 30fps?
Most films in the cinema are shown at 25fps.

Or am I wrong?

You are indeed wrong.

No point getting into this debate again been done so many times, but people can defo perceive more than 30FPS with regards to gaming. Films? Not really sure.
