I opened and closed Firefox a few times, and I think my cache gets deleted since I clear history on close. I didn't get any errors, it just stayed on "Joining game" for ages but nothing would happen. I was able to join one game but everything was messed up and lagging and I couldn't do anything. I checked processes to see if there was some "ghost" BF3.exe hanging around (which has happened before), but there was nothing, so no idea why it wouldn't join the games. I turned the firewall off, though it would be nice if the game would tell me if the ports were blocked.

I never managed to get Firefox to launch BF3 correctly, so downloaded Chrome and it works perfectly every time. Now use Chrome for BF3 and Firefox for general browsing.

Just use Chrome for everything, I'm a firefox convert and couldn't go back. And if it works better with BF3 then that's a bonus :)
 
I just read this comment in the Kokatu article about the bf3 hackers and the person was saying they've quit online gaming at the age of 29.

'It's just not worth the aggravation anymore. I'd like an 18+ server, or maybe even a 25+ server with an honor system. There have to be more gamers than just myself that don't hurl inflammatory comments online or cheat when they play, right'?

Interesting idea. Have to say i agree with the last part. :D

Seconded!!!

Right Matty boy, I'll finally be back on laters to get YO TAGS on Afterburner
 
Hey guys, just a quick question:

Is the g3a3 worth unlocking? It has been a favourite gun of mine for quite some time across many games just because it's a different play style really. However I hear it's been nerfed into the ground so I'm unsure if I should bother.

I have to say even after unlocking it i dont find it anything amazing.

Its not completely useless, my mate swears by it. But i couldn't really find a reason to use it over other assault rifles.

Probably one of my favourite gun, over 2000 kills with it so far.

plenty of stopping power but recoil is really bad.

In my experience this kind of behaviour has a tenuous link to age at best.

Try a manual clear of the cookies and cache in Firefox (CTRL+SHIFT+DEL). I had issues with it last week and got it solved doing the same, thanks to Thundy :)
