Conquest? You should play it on Rush for the exhilaration of the base jump! :)

Will have to try Rush eventually only really do Conquest :D


Also if you don't mind me asking and possible joining, what TS do you guys use mostly? :)

ps. Tried it on Rush, that was so fun :D

Well thanks to Lethagized we finally figured out what was causing my BF3 crashes.

THE BLOODY REALTEK AUDIO DRIVER!!

If anyone is suffering intermittent system freezes, which occur completely randomly, try disabling your sound from your bios (usually it's onboard sound) and then run BF3 and test thoroughly.

After installing my Asus DX, it's running without a single crash.

You haven't been the only one with this. I wonder how many audio cards OC have sold since this game released :p
 
I've got a problem with my pc at the moment. I keep getting BSOD messages whenever i alt tab out of games, the message is system service exception. :(

Think ive narrowed down the problem to an ati driver - atikmdag.sys. Tried the 11.12 official and 12.1 preview, happens on both. But only happens when i alt tab out of the game fifa 2012. So i just need to stop doing that. Its annoying though knowing the problem is there.

I have realtek onboard sound, its enabled but not in use. I am running the latest driver though, they released it just a month or so back. Were you running the latest version or the old driver?

However im going to try alt tabbing in fifa 2012 with what you suggested, see if it fixes my bsod.

Useful tip there!
 
PDW-R and some of the other PDW guns are pretty handy on TDM because of maps relative small size and the guns fast rate of fire. Reload is a pain though. On a larger map they are a real pain to use as their range is only about 32 inches (may be slightly more than this).

Auto Shotties work well on the container TDM maps. Just run around the containers and don't blink. You'll get super accuracy too.
 
Have you guys got your thrust control lever working on your flight sticks ?

When I pull mine to 0 thrust the plane slows down but does not apply the air brake - so i keep having to press s on the keyboard as well.

And in the F35 at 0 position it starts to hover but then crashes but if I set the thrust to 25% the plane will stay in stand still.
 
Haha cheers matt! You are a very good player aswel, always there shooting me when its not needed!

Just need to practise my flying with the chopper and jets!

Will be using your server a lot now matt :)
 
Can i just say I love the PDW gun :p

My K/D has gone from 1.0 to 1.14 :D and usually Dominate the TDM servers with DG and TealC

Its a very nice gun for maps like metro or for any up close fights. I just unlocked the QBB for support and damn, thats one nasty gun! Mowed down a lot of people with it last night :D

Snip.

Useful tip there!

This is how a 'Mildot' sight works, you don't need the laser, upper an lower dots for distance/elevation and left and right dots for wind speed, or if you're showing off on really long shots coriolis Force.

It means you don't need to re-zero you scope every time you have a different range to target, now all you need is a spotter to tell you that range and you're good!

Of course some ammunition loads, and or rifling/barrel weights can lead to a veer in left or right motion so different ranges (Very long distance shooting) can lead to the need to use the left and right dots for that as well to compensate for a parabolic trajectory.

Too much inforamtion?
