Just had a round on matts server playing metro.:p
Lol, that guys hammer skills are weak, couldnt even break the disc.:D

Seen a few similair vids regarding certain motherboards, a hammer as an asus mobo repair kit, and another classic on how to fix an evga 680i sli mobo. The guy with the 680i posted it on the evga forums and promptly got banned.
 
EA stoop to new lows with BF3 Premium.

I imagine the leak was done on purpose, so EA can come along and say the pricing is wrong and they'll only charge something like 2800 MS points, and look like the good guys.

Anyway, horrible waste of money for an already broken game.
 
Will not touch this abortion of a game if they paid me, they fix the 100's of bugs is still wouldnt touch another EA title.

Theres taking the **** and theres EA
 
i think bf3 is a superb game, infact the best war type shooter ever imo.

Really ought to play this again. But the premium **** now... just no.

Yet you're still talking about it..............

That's like saying this McDonalds is bad for me and the company should be closed...oh hang on..One big mac meal plz..yes mate, what was I saying.....
 
either you are a cod fan or have genuine reasons for your dislike of bf3? in which case i would like to hear them:D

DG is the cod fan, I tend to avoid cod!

I just think BF3 could be so much better, hell it was awesome pre-dlc then dice started messing around with it and **** it up. I could go into it but I'll end up raging, I'm just glad I left
 
I still play it now and again, but it has a lot of issues. A few being.

no voip
clumsy menu system
dice have messed with weapons too much
too many choke points on certain maps, metro speaks for itself in conquest, tunnels on damavand peak, alleyway on grand bizar.
capture points on maps are to tightly packed
air vehicles rule games too easily, (limited countermeasures)
woeful hit reg

Thats just a few off the top of my head.

Essentially no matter which facet of the game you analyze there is some ultra annoying bug/flaw present which altogether combine into a completely tedious experience of a game. The most disappointing thing about it all is that it is literally on the verge of being utterly amazing, but they would rather spend their time flip flopping between two bad sets of vehicle/weapon balance every major patch rather than sort anything out.
 
I recently got into the game again. At first I was having a lot of trouble with hits just registering at all but then I disovered the network configuration option in the settings menu. Hit reg seems to be better but can still be off at times.
Personally I prefer the smaller maps over the larger maps. Campers just tick me off. Lack of team play ticks me off.

I went on the bf3 server mentioned here a couple of times but I just could not get on with the large maps, masses of snipers and the vehicles on HC... Normally HC is one of my favourite modes in fps games but it just doesn't seem to work with the current setup.
 
If you want spot on hit reg try Red Orchestra 2 and this is why!

Added client-side hit detection. Client side hit detection works for all standard small arms bullet firing weapons and for melee. Client side hit detection can be turned off/off by server admins through the webadmin tool.

They even changed the server side hit detection to client side because that's what the community asked for, not dice noooo

The difference between server side and client side is VERY noticable
 
ok I got this game on release day and thought it was awful. Tried again tonight and just still not getting the hype. I hate the browser menu, I hate that weapons feel really **** for beginners. I die constantly even though I spot somebody first I still seem to die. the melee is awful yet I feel the urge to really WANT to like it.I must be missing something
 
I could do with some help, I have just installe a new hard drive and now BF3 wont work as punkbuster is kicking me from the server with this error..... Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Prattler' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe

I have done the obvious and updated Punkbuster but I still get the same error.
