lol after all that effort to get it unlocked

Need more RAM I won't be getting any soon either not got the dough to spend on any.

Grand Bazaar is a riot. That Alleyway is a bit of a bottle-neck though but great fun if you have a half decent squad.

Whilst i think of it, anyone just get a black screen when the server changes map? Mine does it quite a bit and i have to ctrl/alt/del to exit the game and rejoin?

Just met my first hacker in BF3. AABaldi was his name.

He warped everyone on defense across the map halfway into a wall where you couldn't move out from or do anything, and shot us. Oh well I guess that's enough for tonight then

Please post his states in the EA forums it is so easy to find cheaters now - http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/AABALDI/stats/282112781/

I was reading that EA are unlocking the UK early due to the number of people using VPN. Does anyone know when it will be officially unlocked?

I've seen other people mention AA on forums, I think they're a hacking group.

Reading all these posts, I can't wait for my copy to arrive (Couldn't go with GMG as money had already been taken, so hopefully it comes on time!). By the looks of things, it looks like the TFU server is the most popular around here?

 

[The Running Man]

mine is shipped ! hopefully have it tomorrow or so!

I may have missed a post or two in this uber thread but any news on what's making the servers so laggy, with all the rubberbanding etc. ?

So when is it coming to steam then?

Everytime you change graphics settings, do you have to restart game for the settings to take effect like in beta?

I have changed between high and ultra without restarting game and tbh hardly noticed any difference.

How are flash lights in multiplayer btw ?

Have they been toned down to normal levels ?

They take effect in game without having to restart the game.

I've still seen some really bad flashlights in daylight. The need to sort that out. Put a light sensor on the gun!

If you guys are playing on TFU what voice channels you using ocuk mumble or TFUs

Unfortunately not, or if they have toned them down I haven't noticed and it's still like people are carrying around a star in their pocket. Infrared isn't much better either.

This... They need to sort it out... But it's a lot better from Beta

 

[Fr0dders]

you mean the laser pointers ?

Since infrared light isn't visible to the human eyes

Daft thing is though, is that the laser pointers blinding people at extreme range is a serious real life issue.

The reality is, that even if it did come to Steam, it would not be worth getting. It would still require Origin to boot up and then Battlelog.

I works fine with the overlay as well as I tested it last night. Just add it as a non-Steam shortcut.
