Battlefield 3 Thread

Ran like crap for me when it was released, but the server fixes on dice's end and the new amd drivers helped a lot.

My rig still struggles with 64 player games but i play at 1366x768 so my cpu just cant cut it at all, when i play on my telly at 1080 it runs a lot smoother :P
 
Ultra with motion blur off (Cuz I hate it) and vsync on. No stuttering at all. Happy.

I'm a little new to battlefield games, and while I do like the realism, I still hate accounting for bulletdrop with snipers. I just wanna ping the guy in the head!
 
I agree on the bullet drop. It should be less like a world where gravity is tripled and more like ARMA2 bullet drop if you get me.

Also, why no zeroing on scopes?
 
I've just realised that if you hold down "shift" while driving a tank you get an acceleration boost, Was this in BC2? :D

I thought the boost only worked in Jets. :D.

Have you not played thunderun yet? Its on that mission :D

I dont recall it on bfbc2, but it may well have been, i was always rubbish in tank on there anyway so didn't pay them much attention.
 
Guys need help. . just finished installation. It seems to be downloading an update. The game isn't launching. It says the " it appears the game isn't installed".
Is this because that an update is getting installed?
What should I do?
 
Try leaving it alone for a while, or signing into battlelog and trying to play. After that I guess you should try restarting Origin.
 
So everything is installed and am ready to play.
When I click bf3.exe or launch it from origin then the release date check thing comes up. When I click next. . something happens and My bf3.exe becomes 0 kb and is not recognized by windows then.
Did anyone get the same problem.
What should I do?
 
IIRC there is a 500mb update straight after you have installed the game.


If this is the case you wont be able to play until its downloaded.

If not have you made sure your origin is up to date?

if you participated in the beta make sure you delete origin and get the new one :p, that caused a hell of a problem for me lol.

If none of these it may be wise to check on the bf forums or wait for an answer off someone else.
 
Nice. . . its working good now. .
played khrg island and canals. . used the jet at canals. .
Im just very good at defence. . learning to use the cannons now.
btw I havent played the campaign yet lol.
 
I've learned how to fly the attack heli's properly now, also unlocked the heatseekers, and boy are they fun! Taking down jets is awesome :D

Nope,Only played around 10 mins or so of Single player so far, most of my time has been a quick match online, I have the whole week off work next week so should be able to sit back and play some single player.:)
 
Guys, I played BF3 multiplayer last night and worked excellent last night.
But today morning when I join a server through battlelog the game connects-loads-- and shows playing in the battlelog, but then I see, it shows that Battlefield 3 has stopped working.

My singleplayer campaign works fine for me. Can anyone tell me what to do.
