Ok just back in now from college.

So how has the patch been? Accomodating, disappointing, etc..etc?

Fixes some things, breaks others from what ive read. So the usual patch standard.

i tell u what....between the CAT 11.11a's andthe patch...the game is running as good as it ever has done for me tbh

didnt notice much else different apart from sqds work beter

Still seems to be stuttering - it like 50fps then a massive bomb to 0 then back to 50 ... very odd

Sounds like your lack of vram is causing you issues. Try dropping the texture settings down to high as it will lower your usage.

Hmmm further updates required then .

Has any of you experienced 'black screen' issues when server changed to different maps sometimes? This is something I experienced periodically and was supposed to be fixed with this patch.

Will see how accommodating this patch has been in my experience.

Had a few black screens on map loads. But my most common issue has been bf3 exe has stopped working. Have to close the game via task manager.

I generally get that on the first game of the day, every day. Not that ive played it that much lately, game is ****ing me off big time.

Funnily enough, the last time two times its happened were on my first rounds those days. Repaired the install via origin which applied an update. Got to try it later once this patch has downloaded and installed.

EDIT: Has the green/orange flashing issue been addressed in the patch?

This is common issue for me aswell.

Anyone constantly getting kicked since the patch was introduced?
I've checked and manually updated PB, made no difference... Each and every game I load I get booted out after a few minutes.

 

[Deleted member 651465]

Only ever had the "BF3 has stopped working" problem on the initial map load, so I'll be mighty annoyed if I get more crashes.

I can handle the occasional glitch, but mid-round freezing or crashing would make me rage

 

[Deception]

Patch is installing now, hopefully goes ok without any issues! What servers everyone on?

 

[gizmoy2k]

Just installed, noticed my favourites list is considerably smaller than it was before

 

[nitram100]

its coming in Future patch, looking at Jan-March 12.

Source mate? That's pretty big news if it's true and I can't seem to find anything relating to that.

 

[nitram100]

Also, I didn't notice, but have they put letters on the flags for minimap yet? Pretty stupid if they haven't. Jesus, this game needs so much work.

 

[matthewwhitton]

Where have loads of my favourites gone??

 

[jackniksmith]

noooo, the patch doesnt work for me, i had no probs playing before the patch now i cant play it loads up only hear the sound

 

[WingZero30]

Lol this patch bums!!

I tried to get into squad by clicking on it and also by pressing enter but nothing happened.

Also the 'black screen' still appeared while server changed map and bf3.exe stopped working!!

 

[nitram100]

Awesome. Now I can't log into Origin, I really do hate EA sometimes. Never ever had a problem before, now the game doesn't even ****ing load for me.
