Nah, if you believe this thread, games never get changed, patched or tweaked and always remain the same as they are in early beta stages

Indeed. People in the thread are worrying way too much.

Battlefield 2 took many patches before it could finally iron out the tons of bugs and abuses plaguing it. I've come to expect buggy released from EA Games, and I'm sure BF3 after a few patches will be worlds better than the release version.

that kind of sniping is really easy. once you get used to the position you're in and how far the bullets will drop its just a case of either finding stationary targets or taking a stab that someone will keep running (about 30% skill and 70% luck in my experience)
the trick is watching the bullet fly so if you miss you know how to readjust

I wouldn't mind it...except for the fact that when I get the "enemy infantry in the area," I have no idea if the person is in front of me, "around me," newly tagged, near an objective...etc. It's currently useless information for me, but I blame it on myself.

Battlefield 2 took many patches before it could finally iron out the tons of bugs and abuses plaguing it. I've come to expect buggy released from EA Games, and I'm sure BF3 after a few patches will be worlds better than the release version.

Except BF2 patches were a largely hit and miss afair
Off the top of my head the major things they fixed
- C4 Throwing (rightly so, but fuck, destroying squads and squads of daddy gamers as spec ops was a great experience)
- Reduced AoE for nade launchers
- Prouching (spam proning/crouching so your visible model still looked proned but your first person view was actually at crouch level - aka chest high wall abusing)

Things they screwed up
- Patch 1.3 ie months of random ranked server crashing
- Rego getting worse from one of the major patches
- That one patch where they buffed support to the point an insta proning PKM could destory squads from 200m away and then nerfed it next patch
- Jet missles being screwed up one patch causing J10 to be almost invincible to missles and the F35 to get hit every single time.
- Incorrect team indicator bug that they never could get rid of

Expect an awesome game that is rough around its edges. A hallmark of the battlefield series heh

I feel really unsure if they just voice randomly, or if it announces that there is a sniper in the area only when someone 'Q's a sniper

It's because its a beta, it's happening to almost everyone.


So 10 out of 11 games you freeze and need to ctrl+alt+del out of the process?


Soz, I didn't see this before. Yeah, it happens every 6 minutes for me with spec's that should run it easily. It's frustrating but I'm gonna wait till the game comes out before I judge it properly. I mean the actual gameplay is soo good. In terms of optimisation it's already better than black ops when it was released (for me anyway) so I'm just happy about that tbh.

Even after installing the newest nvidia beta drivers (285.38)? I know that mine froze 4/5 times until I installed that driver.

One of the reasons I frown upon BC3, and BF3, is that the sniping is THIS... its all guess and check, in real life, you rangefind, then you dail your scope, then you make an informed shot... in this game, its just... do i think my bullet went to far? idk, do i think it was to short? idk... fuck, FIRE AGAIN! MIGHT GET LUCKY!

So far only 1 game i have ever played has gotten this correct:
Joint Ops: Combined Arms

All the scopes have ACCURATE MILDOTS at 100m a piece...
You have the ability to dial your scope 100m at a time, and you have binoculars with a range finder so you can make INFORMED SHOTS...

That is why, in that game, sniping is REALLY HARD, because it takes preparation and skill, not this silly checklist of, i know how to shoot from where i camp to that helicopter spawn point!

to be fair, you dont guess if it went short, you hold your scope and watch the bullet, if it goes short you adjust your aim

I am pretty sure that, at least in BC2, it would also announce snipers if they barely miss someone.

What about wind direction and speed? I guess that game never had that too huh? BF series was never about realism.
