Out in December, no specific date set.

really don't know why people don't like 64 player servers, I find 32 player servers to be a lot less fun/interesting.

Loving the game though, a few niggly issues but they will get fixed I'm sure.

LOL I'll do that, but only to defend the tank while you repair it, I'll bale as soon as it's fixed. Honest guv

I would help you repair, but I'm normally support.

i prefer 24 man, just while i learn the maps and get to grips, 64 man servers are good on the big maps, but some of the smaller ones, or ones with bottle necks its just a pot luck nade fest

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF LARGE TESCO STORES ARE RETAILING BF3 FOR THE PC?

Sorry for the bold, but I need to know and I don't want to make the trip unless they do.

HEADRAT · 2 Nov 2011 at 16:47

Neither of my local Tescos carry PC games any more, might be worth just giving them a quick call.

Ok this is for PC yes? i just thought we would have access from day one :rolleyes:

A rather misleading pre-order deal, eh? "Including Back to Karkand map-pack... eventually".

Yes a very sad state for PC gamers we are being squeezed out :mad:

HMV stopped selling PC games well over a year ago i cant find any in the big Tesco's
Just a shame really.

EA denies Origin spies on Battlefield 3 PC players

I think they (Origin) know about my porn collection.

MoRT489 · 2 Nov 2011 at 16:58

Do any retailers / etailers sell the limited edition or physical warfare pack on PC still? I have a £10 cokezone voucher for EA but it doesnt work

Tried them twice, an 0845 with about five trillion options that dials and then goes dead. Fairly infuriating.

Oh well guess I'll order a physical copy from Zavvi or someone.

Hey guys, if like me it ****es you off that you can't change your soldier name from your originID, go here and +1 and comment on this thread; http://getsatisfaction.com/battlefi...th_the_name_we_want_or_have_multiple_soliders

It's currently being "taken into consideration", although I don't see why they don't just do it as they clearly had the capability to set it up, they just decided to take it out...
