Battlefield 3 thread - Server details in opening post -

Oh my goooooooooodddd the SP friendly AI constantly pushing you about or taking spots you're crouched at and putting you into enemy line of fire.
Didn't uh... BC2 have this exact same problem? IIRC It did, Fire-team AI was on rails, you can't stop them, they are unstoppable forces and aren't smart ai at all.

Sure, once I've done with it not playing it again, MP all the way but that's no excuse, shoddy.

So do you lot just play on random servers then with each other or do you all stick to TFU?

Mainly conquest or rush and normal or hardcore?

Do you have a teamspeak server?

Thanks for the reply Buckster. Can anyone post their system ram usage if they get a spare second please. Google isn't being a big help

The 64 player modes on the maps are way to clusterf***ed. You can just tell they have tried to design for too many variations (consoles) and they play no where near how a 64 player map would play on BF2.
It's as if they designed them to be somewhat balance for console 24 player, PC 32 player, and just tagged on 64 player as if it were Shipment of CoD4.

It makes me pretty upset TBH.

oh will you quit with the console deep accusations.

The PS3 and Xbox have completely different maps compared with the PC version. They only have 4 capture points for a start on conquest. They are somewhere in-between BF2s 16 and 32 player size.

The problem is that the maps aren't staggered in 32 player / 64 player sizes like they were on BF2.

They've taken a one size fits all approach.

why is there less destruction than in BC2?

brucey034 · 25 Oct 2011 at 20:43

How do the medics get the defribrilator ?
Do you have to earn it or something ?

Nexus18 · 25 Oct 2011 at 20:44

Yup another stupid unlock which should be standard.

Pretty much the only thing that you don't have to unlock is your basic guns and speed boost in vehicles :rolleyes:

This bothers me also, meant to be an all singing and dancing new engine but the destruction is poor.

re Back to Karkland - anyone find the adverts for it as part of the LE version of BF3 misleading ?

ie where does it say its not actually coming out this week ?

It doesn't say when its coming out

http://www.battlefield.com/battlefield3/blog/bf3-pre-order

Its your own fault if you assumed it was coming out at release. Its not due for another month or two yet at least.

Erm I just reloaded Origin and noticed Bad Company 2 is in there now. I never bought it through Origin but for some reason it's in there and fully functioning?

yes its an unlock for the assault class. Points based one, so just keep scoring and you'll unlock it. Think its about 7000 points.

Ok, how do you unlock it ? By leaving medi packs everywhere I assume.

And yes. But should be easy to unlock and done in one Map if you do objectives!

just fired this up with my spec in sig - everything on ultra on 1680x1050 and was running very playable as 35-70 fps, sometimes higher.

However i dropped the AA to 2x and changed HBAO to SBAO (i think thats what theyre called anyway) and now im averaging 60

Looks like I'll be playing assault class for a bit

Ringiho · 25 Oct 2011 at 20:48

Well I caved!

Cancelled with GAME, ordered with GMG. Downloading now!

WingZero30 · 25 Oct 2011 at 20:50

At what level are scopes (4x zoom etc) unlocked for assault rifles?

Enemies with scopes are picking me like sheep before I get a chance to respond. Once I have scopes then I will turn the tables on them

they are weapon points based.

You unlock them individually to each gun the more you use it.

Pick a gun you want a scope on, and stick to it. The more you use it, the more unlocks you get for that gun.

LOL was having fun at the TFU server, awsome.

Too bad it was laggy as hell sometimes.

I'm keeping a close eye on the servers mate, will see if any1 else has problems with the lag. Have you tried our 32 slot rush server?
