same, Every server within 5 mins i get kicked by the admin, Getting annoying now, cba anymore.

Probably a Punkbuster issue, maybe try a manual update?

Well only positive i am seeing from the game is that it runs really well on my MSI GX660R on all high settings @ 1920x1080.

Hate how the whole game works. The main reason i sold my desktop and went to PS3 was because of all the crap you have to do to just play a game on the PC these days. Think i ordered it for the wrong platform.

I've just installed the game but it's failing the release date check....anybody else?

Stupid question.

But if I wont to configure keys etc, is the only way of doing this, is to go into a server first?

Yup. It's very lame.

Keeps just sending me to empty servers where you are waiting about 15 minutes for people to join.

Or go into single player.

Thanks, high will do me. I usually get cheap graphics cards so have to suffer with low on intensive games.

My GT X480 SOC plays the campaign at a very smooth 60 FPS on Ultra @1080p

Angst · 27 Oct 2011 at 17:25

Anybody playing this on a hex core? Whats the performance increase like over a quad does it use the extra 2 cores?

All I did was download pbsetup from here, stick it in the PB folder within the BF3 directory. Open it up, let it update and then add BF3 as a game and it should autodetect the installation location. Then click update and it will download the latest updates for PB.
