Yes. I was very disappointed when i started the game up and it bought me to the battlelog site, i really wish everything was integrated in game and not on some shitty web page.

Unfortunately i believe it will remain in the full game too and not just the beta.

I hope not. The disjointed feels strange and wrong. Plus it leaves your browser open while you play. So if you start a game after a long web stint, it will eat into your RAM. Its no big deal unless you are like me and watch 7 or 8 web videos which ends with your browser using 700 MB of RAM. That is no joke.

The log and stat tracking is great, but needs more detail, better explanations, and minor tweaking.

As we get into the afternoon time, the game is getting much more laggy than when I first started around 11:00. It is unplayable for me now and that pisses me off a little.

To who said Europe is forgotten. No sir. But I preordered BF3 on D2Drive (unrelated) and bought MOH on Steam, and Steam gave me the code this evening.
Anyway it is one map. How funny all the Male-Hysteria for this beta, haha. It is ok. Just ok and just one map. We are working for free for a beta team and even payed for it, for sure these times are strange.

Ah, I love Paris, but I miss the atmosphere. A garden park and then a metro subway. The Resistance ... well was a whole other game.... Is there a Rescue Edith Piaf mission?

Thanks for the insight. I'll hopefully be playing around 7CST. Of course itll be a bit later if I OC my GPU. Any Idea what i should set my CPU to to OC? it is the Phenom II 955BE.

I agree as well.

Battlelog sucks ass.. I've got origins set to save install files, but for some odd reason the beta install files were not saved.. The game itself is great so far, but the whole battlelog and the fact i cant change settings unless i'm in the game... leaving my soldier standing there like he is afk suck ass.. I've got kill a few times trying to get my settings correct... That part really sucks ass! As soon as i find the config file I'm creating my "BF3 Config Utility"!.. hehehe

While your in the game itself, hit esc and you will see options. Cant do it from the deploy menu or anywhere else from what I can see.

The game wants to put me into servers in Austrailia all the time for some reason. I finally connected to a US server and it was lag free. I'm not of fan of facelog/battlebook either.

Also, any of you are running CrossFire, grab the 11.8 CAP 5 from Guru 3d.

The beta seems buggier than the alpha. Other than that it plays like the alpha only it has the added pos battlelog. So far, not impressed. When things are working correctly it's fun.

True, the problem was he had not played the beta. Instead he had relied on footage someone else posted. I know the beta would be buggy especially with all the work they have done on the game. I know they were going to be updating the game everyday of the beta so hopefully the game will improve enough to be enjoyable to play before the Beta ends.

The code for the beta is a few weeks behind what DICE have ready for launch, so there's a lot in the beta code that has been fixed already.

They should either open up more servers for testing or open up Caspian Border. or Both.

no, I connected with a server that had less than 30 ping, was great at first, but became bogged down as I kept playing (was full the whole time) I think EA's back-end is causing issues as well.

in the end, I was insta-killed 10 times in a row, and rage-quit.

I found the config files. Its in under the name "PROF_SAVE_body" in documents/Battlefield 3 Open Beta/settings.

You can open it in notepad but its a bitch to make out.

If anyone knows were the key bindings are please post up.

Yes, please make that config Utility, i found it very annoying in the alpha, don't know why they made it like that.

Sent a bunch of friend requests out, hopefully i'll get into the beta, been on hold with EA support for an hour now. Finally talked to a guy, and is working with me and my D2D pre-order. Anybody else want to add me, i'm under newbsandwich

I had a similar problem to this one time with BF2.

If your running Kaspersky or any othe anti-virus/firewall - add BF3.exe to the exclusions. that fixed the problem for me
