For me i could not play BF3 with CF Because after ten mins i would start to get freezing and stuttering ,Switched of CF and was smoother not perfect getting round 49 to 50 fps that was it .And in the beta setting for gfxs was not working right ,Just dont get it if you say some of your friends are using CF with 5870 and was having no problems then i must have some thing wrong with one my cards BF3 .Just hope there ok in full game ,But just see on twitter theres not going to be any drivers that will run better for BF3 on ati untill the 31st oct .

I had the same thing on metro, where would get stutter after few mins with xfire on - but no such problem in caspian. The problem had fixed itself when I went back on metro 2 days later though.
 
Is anyone picking it up on the high street?

I can't be assed with the DL and paying £10 more to buy it via an online service is a joke.


Looks like "game" are just selling the limited edition version so i hope i will be ok for the added guns and maps.

I'd like to know this as well. If I go into town on Friday will I miss out on the Tactical Warfare Pack Thingy and the Back to Karkand pack?

The PWP and Back to Karkand were only advertised with preorders, so you might miss it if you just turn up on release day. If you mean going into town on Friday this week and preordering it in store you'll be fine.

Yes i had the problem on both the maps nothing seemed to fix it other then switching off one card in ccc option .It became very frustrating when all i wanted to do was injoy the beta , So played with lower FPS which let me play the game but was not as smoother as it was with both cards working before stuttering and freezing up on me . when it was freezing it would freez then let you move then freez over and over again untill you just wanted to pull you hair out :( the 11.10 drivers did not help me one bit ,But the card work just fine in all over games and get high FPS .
 
Why doesn't the BETA remove itself from Origin since it's no longer running and I've uninstalled it? I see no point in it wasting my pixels?
 
Hi is there any one here that played BF3 alpha or beta dont matter which ,Thats using ever HD6990 or 2X6970 and if so what was your FPS and what was the setting used .

Thanks

I was getting around 60ish on Metro park area at 1920x1080 with the beta "ultra" settings, was more in the unerground segments, 80 plus. Don't recall what i was getting in Caspian

Ive still got the alpha in my origin games as well, probably have to contact Custoemr support to get it removed if it doesnt remove itself after the game launches.

Yes im getting mine from the high street GAME store,this has nothing to do with GAME online store,i will be getting the karkand dlc and physical warpack,however the assistant told me this when i ordered it way back in June,all i have to do is present my reciept,pay the remainder of the money and off i go.

For non pre orders?

All the extra content will be offered to normal players at some point. They will do DLC also and then eventually bundle deals on all the DLC and so on.

Cant imagine them excluding anyone, today its an incentive to preorder and tomorrow it'll be used to drum up new sales. They got bills to pay

Anyone know the name of this driving game

I believe it was rTractor (rFactor :p) but not certain, its also possible but it may well have been rF2 but im not sure if there is a playable state vers cos i dont give a hoot about the game, just know its been in the pipeline for a while
 
ok thanks




lol

but srsly like 500 quid for 1 game...but i think maybe other games I listed will also benefit from upgrade? and maybe do me 2-3 years

Just an idea but if you don't want to drop £500 on a whole new rig then a much cheaper option to consider if your mobo supports crossfire might also be to pick up a second hand q6600 and another 5770. Overclock the cpu and you have a rig that should be able to handle all the games you listed just fine (though not max them out)
 
they are all at it tbh. but saying that they did give black ops a bad rating, 60 odd i think.

It's like all those ad's for BF3 claiming best game of 2011, game of the year ect ect when the damn thing aint even out yet. talk about premature :)

not sayin it wont be, but they could hold off on the awards till then at least.
 
Speaking of PWP.


If I am not mistaken, I see characters facial expressions; assault closing his mouth during shooting and recon moving his eyes while reloading.

I hope this is implemented in the full game as it gives it a nice 'human/soul' touch.

In Beta characters with static faces was kind a creepy during killcam and reminded me of cs source lol.
