Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

Unlocked and installing now. Painless install from DVD.

That's wonderful. Unfortunately the pain begins when you try and play a match or series of matches without being DC'd/kicked

 

[Pighardia]

does anyone else think the fact that the Karkland addon maps were a pre-order pre-order not made particularly obvious when ordering ?

This isn't true is it?

I thought they were going to be opened on release(or soon after) and then they would be available to buy later on?

You don't get the maps yet, infact ps3 gets them first when they do come out.

GET A FULL BATTLEFIELD EXPANSION PACK WHEN YOU PRE-ORDER AT ORIGIN

People just assumed it meant it was available at release. You'd only know if you read the BF3 blog:

For a game that isn't officially realeased, I am not surprised.

If you have to reg to play single player, I guess you could just download the reloaded crack. Then reinstall the whole game when its fixed? Just an idea

 

[The Running Man]

OMG it just let me enter my cd key!

 

[shauncr91]

Mine's going through the activation process now after trying for 2 hours, slowly but surely.

Something else that's just great - the Battlelog is not up-to-date. Most servers listed with empty slots say "Server full" when I actually try and connect.

Can't stop disconnecting from the servers.

During the Beta I had the same problem.

It was solved by disabling UPnP on my router.

 

[The Running Man]

Fail it didnt accept my key as it was a cd key and i just clicked redeem code:/ oops no it was because i missed 4 keys out

 

[SS-89]

Finally activated through the korean vpn.

Which is a bit wrong really, especially when you are using it as a selling point to get people's money.

Well its not 'wrong" as such, just misleading.

I don't have a router. The game has been fine since Monday, it's just tonight I disconnect about 3 minutes into each game.

Must be just me who thinks its looks amazing, sounds amazing, technically amazing but actaully playing it is not much fuin ?

yep totally agree. Cant put my finger on it but just doesnt feel right. I really enjoyed the beta but it seems a lot has changed.

I kind of feel annoyed all the time im playing but not quite sure why!
