I had to download new drivers to play this beta, and it made it so sc2 was unrunnable. then while in the beta, i couldnt edit my graphics cause they were set too high for my current videocard, and i cant edit them in game, and the whole browser system just causes clunkiness. Somehow, I think the BF2 Graphics were better. anyways. Cause i dont have a 2000 dollar computer, this game isnt even playable to me, and not only that, while playing it, and being a BF2 veteran since its conception, I just felt like I was playing COD rather then a battlefield game. One thing that bothered me was the last of a commander position in the game. with this, spawn camping was incredibly popular and most of the guns from BF2 are heavily changed for the sake of "balance." so the guns on both sides were the exact same. mean while in BF2, the AK was full auto, and did more damage, while the M16 was burst fire, and had less recoil; which made sense, so on maps where americans were attacking, they had the advantage of range, while MEC had to set-up camping points. it was a very well constructed game, where you can literally ahve a fire-fight over a single position for 30 minutes striaght, of constant gunfire, on a sever that was only meant for 16 vs 16.

simply BF3, from the beta doesn't ahve any of this, and feels like it's trying to be a COD killar, with guns you unlock at ranks rather then choosing which guns you wanted, based off the classes you liked, or didnt like using the orignal guns for. I feel like BF3 overall is the weaker game in comparison to BF2.

I think that's fake, that's a bad social media move if they actually posted numbers lost. Even when you check their twitter that tweet isn't there.


Thats true, but it's not the first time they have deleted their "stupid" tweets.


First of all this tweet has to many characters to be a real one. Second, look at this tweet very closly: http://twitter.com/#!/Battlefield/status/119786869012705282


My point still stands.I didn't say anything about the picture, if it's real or not.

I'm gonna be disappointed if you can't change your name in retail. Jesus christ, why it needs to be so complicated.

I see the way you're actin' like you're somebody else, gets me frustrated. Life's like this you, you fall and you crawl and you break and you take what you get, and you turn it into battlefield 3.

Why ?
I don't really like CoD, never been my type of multiplayer game, but ain't competition between the FPS games a good thing ?

Can anyone comment on firing a shotgun when not aiming down?
When I aim down I can get some weird ranged kills but when not aiming down in CQB it just seems to miss completely at point blank range.
Playing Terran is like flying down a MULE drop in a marine suit, firing a Gauss Rifle

AFAIK it goes something like this

                                     I-you, ---:::: individual bullets (their spread)

While aiming = I ----:::
Without aiming = I -::::::

So if you aimed at the chest of your enemy in close range, most bullets would go directly to it, but without aiming the bullets would go like chest arm leg etc.
Thats the impression i got from BC2 anyhow, maybe Im completely wrong in this.

Does anyone know about the helicopter physics? As in if theyre closer to BF2, BC2, or BC2:Vietnam (ultra arcade)

I was playing this game for the first time yesterday and came across some weird flashing/stuttering. While I'm playing flickers of white flash would pop up as I move. Anyone else experience the same thing?

The white flashes might be the incredibly dumb tactical flashlight addon to weapons. Blinds everyone not just you ;/

No it is actually a graphical big similar to the occasional texture streatching and body contortions and OCCASIONALLY player avatars getting stuck in the floor while the REAL player moves around and kills people invisibly.

The flashes are not always white, I also get blue and green flashes... but they are the least of my graphical problems...

I think the tactical flashlight and laser sight are nice additions, but they do get annoying when dumb people just don't give a fuck and blind their own teammates or they're just oblivious.

True, but the reload coupled with "un-zooming" makes it longer to get off 2 shots. And two shots are needed to kill one person or two standing right next to each other - which happens a lot in certain spots. Sometimes I don't even consider aiming for head, I just take 2 shots and let them fly to the target killing them while I look for another target or move somewhere else.
One thing I like about bolt action is that it's way cooler I think semi auto should kill instantly with headshot and do around 40-45dmg so 3 shots are need for a kill.



A second shot doesnt matter once you fire your shot, and duck down, and reposition to a new location.

Remember your scopes flash, Of course you need to think ahead, limiting scope flash, as well as the ability to reposition (almost by force of the reload) are two effective means to lowering attention to yourself, its really all about quick peak shots, and headshots, both of which bolt action rifle are better at.

I have a problem with the browser (every browser) with this game.
Joining party and join game as party-functions doesn't work. Just to see my partymembers, I have to refresh the browser. There isn't anything wrong with my chrome, just with bf3's site. Anyone have any tips? tyty ~~

I thoroughly enjoy playing CoD every now and then. There's something magical about going 52-20 with a Spas-12 with Extended Mags.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

I bet that all problems with those would be solved if the developers would make these 2 gadgets off at spawn, and players would have to press the T button to activate them.

I don't get how they can fix all the bugs and issues in time.

There are only 3 weeks left until retail release, and they are probably starting to print off the disc to ship already.

this has been explained about a hundred times, this is an older build of the game, much older. This was not to test the game itself, it was a stress test of the servers, and maybe, maybe catch a glitch or bug or two that was not caught. Most of the major bugs you've seen have probably been cleaned up for the launch version long ago.

They can work on the servers without changing the game itself, so that gives them something to do for three weeks.
