I have bought the game and have it on a physical cd (two cd's actually).... so why do i now have to download 11GB's to install the game????? plz halp normally, you can install it from CD. It opens up origin that pretends that its downloading, but its actually reading data from the CD. Civ 5 was the same, just with stream. Also, what do S and W do for jets? i dont think my speed changes when i press them at all. Oh yeah, you can only have 1 account, if you want 2 persons to play the game, you need 2 copies ofc. | ||

Hands down no contenders within a mile. I'm so stoked for this, and would love to see these maps in the TL server rotation. On another note however, for those of you who play on the server you should really get in TS. I did for the first time today and its a much better time. Not only will you play with your squad better but it will help you get to know the guys on the sever. Who just happen to be pretty baller. Side note, I think it might be prudent to suggest 2 BF3 channels, or 1 sub channel, 1 for each team if we get alot of guys in. Nothing more frustrating than trying to set up an ambush and the other team hearing the whole plan. | ||

I use S when I dive bomb on helicopters and tanks, give longer time to shoot. | ||

I just read somewhere that you can somehow buy a second account, cause people were talking about being unable to purchase pre-owned copies, so was wondering if anybody knew about this. If not will just have to suck it up and share I guess, no point buying the game twice just to receive new profile (unless my brother seriously annoys me lol) | ||

The crashes were reported, but we had so many players, the server snapped back to 64/full every single time. Look forward to this on as many 7pm EST nights as I can. | ||

- How do points get saved? Do I have to see the score screen after the match? - What stops me killing my teammate then reviving him for quick points? - Why can't I see the 'Back to Karkand' Map? | ||

Sometimes if you disconnect mid match they still get saved, but you have to wait for the battle report to show on your battlelog which appears when the round you left on is finished. (not entirely sure but that's what happens to me if I dc mid-game) - Most servers have friendly fire off. If it was on, if you TK too much like 5+, the server kicks you depending on what threshold they have for TK's - It's not released yet. | ||

I don't know why, but I can't get really enjoy 64-player conquest. There's just too much stupidity going; people doing nothing, having 4-5 people just waiting for a vehicle spawn.. I find that these problems are much alleviated in 32-player rush, provided you have a squad to play with. Teammates can be so, so worthless that it just hurts to play. It's the battlefield-syndrome, really. Teammates are always bad, whereas the enemy is always good. Also, I really think some of the weapons need some more work done as far as balancing goes. The SV-98 now does what, 50% damage for a torso shot? That's not enough to kill, even on hardcore, where the standard is 60% health. There's also some of the engineer class weapons that are just flat out better than others. They'll fix it over time, but as with every Battlefield game, I expect it to take some months. Until then, just gonna have to put up with it. Oh, and does anybody what weapons the SOFLAM is compatible with? I know you can designate jets for Javelin-users and perhaps guided missiles (jets/helicopters) but I haven't managed to find a proper list anywhere yet. If anyone has tried this, it would be much appreciated. | ||
