Bronken server; real nice guy on there at the mo: fash_ric - seemingly a bit of a racist.

Yep. Nice guy :rolleyes:

Some strange things happening in the game just now, died twice just standing at spawn point, wasn't hit or anything.

Bronken and TFU are the only servers i haven't had any lag in.

Yeh it just goes in a loop. If I cant play it today i'm complaining to origin as I paid express delivery rates to get it today. Not much point if I cant play it!

Origin is dog****

I didn't see any of this mythical BF2 teamwork on public servers, it was usually an absoloute free for all

madindehead · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:37

For those of us who didn't pre-order on Origin, and don't have the PWP now:

I would like to start by clarifying that the Physical Warfare Pack is a time-based exclusive. If you do not pre-order Battlefield 3 at a retailer carrying the Physical Warfare Pack, don’t worry. We will unlock the contents of the Physical Warfare Pack for free to all Battlefield 3 players later this year.

Its a few minor things that need sorting. The game engine is good in visuals and feel. It will become as popular as bf2 if mod editor is made and better maps are out. All the issues about team work will get sorted when the new people to the franchise realize that teawork is needed.

why do i always get timed out when im scoring

ToejaM · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:40

Can anyone tell me how much motion blur affects performance? Is it better fps to have it on or off? I'm too lazy to try it out properly..

barmyllama · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:41

All the servers I have played on so far have been like walking into a gale force wind.

Two steps forward and five steps back.

Rubberbanding is awful, the game feels like it's on the edge of crashing all the time and lowering settings doesn't do much to improve frame rates.

what sound I have under sound options for headphones? Also I am using a Xonar DX and have my windows control panel to 5/7.1, in headphone mode with GX on.

I hope i get good at this game in 2 weeks, never really given bf games much of a chance, got bfbc2 only played 10 hours. I got 2 weeks of solid play to become a convert before MW3 is out. I am sucking hard at the moment though, just jumped on a TDM to get adjusted to the guns and pacing e.t.c. have to get used to the open maps where i can spend 3 minutes running somewhere just to get killed by a sniper hiding somewhere

Anyway of seeing your ping mid game??

mehuk · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:42

ignore atm think ive done it

Scougar · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:42

I am confused by the no team work part. Surely if you guys are in a squad then you work together...? It's not surprising on public servers as such that you don't have people having good teamwork.. especially on release.

Pighardia · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:43

I don't seem to be able to get the onscreen display up for Afterburner, i have a key bound to it but it doesn't work, any ideas?

No, it is nothing to do with the players, it is the game!!

Anyone want to try getting the ocuk server going?

weyland yutani · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:46

My retail copy installed without issue and is running fine but I'm not blown away by it to be honest.

Scooby_WR1 · 28 Oct 2011 at 18:46

4 hours and rising to install off disk what a load of s*** !

I was on a server with a good squad earlier, we all helped each other out and ran around together, all reviving, throwing down ammo etc. ended up winning 4 games in a row on rush. This was with total randoms, we had the ace squad pin all of those rounds, with me MVP#1 3 times, and MVP#2 the other 1.

Amazing what a bit of teamwork will do.
