Did you screenshot that ?

Anyone know if having someone from Australia login on the 25th to activate it would work the same as a VPN? Never used one before and the less hassle the better.

i only have the 1gb 5870 so am hoping it will keep up at 1080p, beta was fine but that was cut down.

CaptainRAVE · 21 Oct 2011 at 22:38

Just read that email about the beta - fair play to the person who got the headshot from ~600 meters away!

will be no problem to be honest the game is gonna be so much better optimized then the beta just keep AA to x2!

Just to keep this in thread, a question if I may?

I've never played any BF series games, always the COD fanboi. I like close quarters combat and had always heard that BF can be a little campy/long periods of time running about HOWEVER, I'm seriously contemplating BF3 but wondered about the single player ... does it follow a plot/storyline on from previous, or will I not even notice?

I realise the differences between the two but I would rather part with my cash to EA knowing that a small part of it may actually be used in the PC development of the next title in the series.
