I dont know whether Im just getting older and forgetting to play FPSs :) But can someone point me in the direction of some kind of online resource re: BF3? Absolutely loving the game so far but it really is my first "proper" BF experience.

E.g. as a medic I can drop this "medic" pack (or whatever its called), how does one use it and what are the benefits of dishing this out compared to actual fragging?

Many thanks folks :)

Oh and another question: Is there some kind of chat area or something where I can see where fellow platoon members are playing? So far I havent really delved into this "Origin" malarky so any headsup would be appreciated.

medic packs replenish team mates health faster than self regeneration plus it gives you points when they get healed, defibs revive fallen team mates saving your team "tickets" and also keeping troops on the front line instead of spawning back at a base.

dont use origin, use battle log to track friends, just add them in there
 
Anyone else cant connect to any online games?

The splash screen comes up, like the level is loading, then it closes after a minute or so and battlelog says "Connection timed out"

Happens on every server so far. I've tried playing the campaign and the game runs fine. This a known issue?

Was happening to me earlier. Its allowing me onto severs now but the lag is terrible.

I feel the torches could do with a bit of toning down. You shouldn't be able to see them through bushes...
 
Its ok, no where near as good as BFBC2, I don’t like the unlock system and I swear vengeance on who put metro in this game :mad::

Wow, I jsut got into a game...


...for 30 seconds. Then booted back to Battlelog "Connection to server has timed out"

Approaching rage threshold.
 
Was just playing on the [ TFU ] RUSH | UK | NORMAL | OCUK | and got stuck on the defending team 3 times in a row.

Are admins just moving people around as they wish? Spoils the gameplay for everyone
The server autobalances the teams automatically and mixes them up at the beginning of each round, it'll keep you within your squad though.
 
Serious question am i missing anything special, i've only ever played bad company 2 single player , never played multi player the only time i tried to play all the servers appeared empty?
 
I do quite like BF3, but not in the same why I liked BF1942, BF2 or BF2142.

It doesn't feel part of the series, but more of a BFBC2.75

Be interested to see what Back to Karkand looks like in all it's glory.
