Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

[Mr Krugga]

lol rpg should be limited to one per person per death.

i played one map earlier and within 1 minute the whole map was destroyed

every person was just spamming rockets.

This is what got me on the OcUK server just now (Metro, 64 players, Conquest).

Damn annoying but I've been spamming rockets back since there was no other way to advance.

I'm happy with the engine handling all the explosions pretty well.

64Man Conquest on Operation Metro is so unbalanced yet so much bloody fun and you earn so many pts! Drop ammo/health boxes its easy 2k+ then add your kills on top etc win!

 

[jrwagh333]

For some reason the "add as a friend" button is greyed out on your profile. Do you have friend requests turned off? If you want to add me my ID is RunningGloves.

Really? No idea why that is
I've gone ahead and added you buddy

Likewise you are greyed out for me too, as is disturbed for some reason. I added you RunningGloves too btw

Iceshock is greyed out too :S Wonder why so many people are and yet the reverse isn't.

This, apart from Origin version, pre-ordered and unlocked 3 days early.
No crashes and no problems

Slam on the brakes and turn sharply, then give it some afterburner to get away.

 

[Pighardia]

^^And me, no problems at all. The only technical problem has been the severe rubber-banding on most servers

 

[H3RBSKI]

still having loads of problems here, on a 50meg connection im getting so much lag, i run and stop just end up jogging on the spot!

I find that only works against newbies. Most others can easily just mimic that themselves. I try to do unpredictable movements but they just seem to be able to latch on.

Some of this is down to the server code. We are getting lag issues on the Bronken server, we've removed a couple of the worst offending maps like Teheran Highway and N Canals as they were either lagging or caused server instability mostly on map change. We'll put them back in when they are fixed properly. Caspian is another contender but it's not as bad as TH.

Dice should be working on fixing them but I believe there should also be a client side release as well.

ocuk server is win

 

[SuperTronNarwhal]

Do the server owners know the reason why maps make lag and cause of server crashes? know that Broken server crashes every time when we go to that dessert one
