Yeah on console anyway...well PS3 at this point. I really can't blame them...and what difference is it to me whether someone invests time or money to get the unlocks? It's been out six months, after all...

Sheesh, the gall of this guy...
oops:D

Now I'm upset. I just got my gallbladder removed and I feel a piece of me is missing. I HAVE NO GALL! :( Now I'm going to need therapy sessons and more medication. :p

So.. anyways, I plan on playing a lot more BF3... I'll be playing all day after the patch tomorrow.

Most likely related to the game engine. It looks like it is having issues with rendering past the visual distance constraints along with zooming in.

Thanks Erocker, It really doesn't bother me much, I wont have to worry after tomorrow cause MAV riding will be eliminated. Only chopper going REALLY high will trigger it.

I don't get it. Looks normal.

That video was taken full sceen. Watch the UI bouncing on and off the screen, also the names of the people I kill. Watch when I pull up the Jav the screen stretches like this / Then when I fire at the tank and stare at it the tank warps to an enlarged size. Basically the whole time that video is running you should notice it looks like running through a carnival mirror house where it distorts to weird proportions.

With my CPU unlocked @ 3.75Ghz this is what I get at High settings with AA and AF turned off, Motion Blur On.



Did many runs on multiple 64 MP maps.

Few maps low goes to about 47 and highs goes to about 118. The above graph is avg of all those runs.

Any good?

Hah. Nice, for the ribbon too. I have yet to score one of those. :(

I don't get a lot of knife kills but then again not often knifed either so all in all that's fine.

Play some Team death match and they are pretty easy.
I got 18 knife kills in one round on Canals.
One lucky fella I got 10 times.

I think everyone will agree with me when I say thank God for vehicle horns. About time. :rockout:

Hell yah ,Nothing I hate more is getting in the hum-v and waiting for squad mates to spawn or have some other guy scream Hey that`s my Hum-V get out ....:banghead:

Well thanks for tips on recon and the assignments,got both yesterday :)Also really started liking the SO-Flam device,Nothing more fun then a Jet Jockey getting mad at a lone recon,I found that if i hit E after deploying it that i could go somewhere else to remote use it,Was fun on Oman I stuck it on one of the cranes and jump off to a roof with good cover and watch 4 choppers and 3 jets go down before they found it :)

As for recon I really regret ever poking fun of them I use to call them Rock Humpers ,I came out of the closet I AM A ROCK HUMPER!!!


(grammar control and not enough coffee):cry:


Hah. Nice, for the ribbon too. I have yet to score one of those. :(

I don't get a lot of knife kills but then again not often knifed either so all in all that's fine.

I found that if you join either Metro/Damavand Peak servers ,You can flank around them when they are in the tunnels or middle in metro,I got my melee ribbon doing this.Also my handgun too.

I think he means the voice fits your personality well. Best part of the video is when you scream "FUCK", I laughed pretty good at that.
