i think to unlock smokes its a rank unlock.


Im starting the TFU Conquest #2 server up anyone fancy joinning currently got 7 :)
 
Overclocked the Q6700 to 3.33ghz and I'm getting an extra 10-12 fps now, amazing!

1680*1050 @120hz with 75-80 fps on High settings with a GTX560Ti Twin Frozr
 
Technically your is an acceptable use of the word you're. It's allowed in University Thesis's, so i don't see a problem with trying to start an argument over a word that is more then acceptable.

Are you ****ing kidding me? Universities now accept your as 'you are'? This is because of idiots degrading the language because they can't be bothered to learn the simple basics.

It's NOT acceptable, end of. I don't care if some backwater Mickey Mouse university accepts it because their student standards are hilariously low. I dare you to try it on with Harvard or Oxbridge for example. Just because your wife works there and is told to cater to retards doesn't mean it's the accepted standard now.
 
Everytime i launch BF 3 after i boot up my PC i get the " stopped working " nonsense. Are EA / Dice aware of this issue?? Win 7 ultimate 64 bit i use. It only happens the 1st time until i reboot ro start again the following day.

I get this too...Win7 Ultimate 64bit. Also seen another guy with same operating system, having the same issue....nice to know we are not alone.
 
After 2 days of trying I finally got BF3 to work (EA support is next to useless). If anyone else is having trouble, I'd suggest the following:

- reinstall Origin onto the default drive, it doesnt seem to register itself properly half the time and leads to a few issues when this happens. Alternatively you could try browsing to the directory in the command prompt and registering through there (type origin.exe /register when in directory)
- Install all windows updates
- Upgrade to IE9
- Disable Anti Virus software
- Upgrade drivers to the ones suggested on geforce.com (for Nvidia)

Mine's working fine now :) Although I could do with a PC upgrade..

I cant seem to use assault rifles for love nor money, I seem to get shot to bits by people with Scars (maybe they recoil less) and changing to single shot firing seems to be just as ineffective.
 
May be people have played previous battlefields too much, so now BF3 just doesn't seem to offer anything new. I doubt BF4 (if it ever happens) will be any good either.

May be instead of capturing flags as the main conquest objective, it should be replaced with something else perhaps directly attacking the enemy bases and converting them as part of one's own assets.

So if your base is captured, then resorting to guerilla warfare tactics to try to get the base back.

Perhaps have command and conquer style gameplay in FPS mode with using harvesters for processing ores and generating money, building more bases and forwarding onto enemy territory.
This will induce lots of creativity/strategy and prolong the enjoyment of the game.

I think I am asking a lot for a battlefield game :p
 
So I have been playing BF3 for a week now and one thing I have to say is:

BUGS

This game has way to many bugs for it to have been released.

Major bugs include
  • Blackscreen when changing map
  • Complete crashes to desktop at game load
  • Crosshairs not showing
  • Not being able to see any team information so not know who is on my team or not
  • Really poor loading times
  • No promised server side features being available at this time

1. Never experienced
2. Never experienced
3. Never experienced
4. ? don't know what you mean
5. Experienced with 2 x 1Tb WD Caviar Black in RAID-0, need SSD to bring the loading times down.
6. Whoop-dee-doo, not a bug.

She works at York University, so not some back water mickey mouse uni.

Attitude problem or what?

Also they are homogenising the grades so more foreign students are getting passes and to not mark down there work based on spelling/grammatical errors.
