came up against my first hacker ingame. me and my squad spawned directly behind his squad 3 or 4 times. and each time we emptied about 3 mags into him and he didnt even flinch. BUT we managed to kill off his WHOLE squad every time. He didnt even turn around when we killed them almost like he didnt know we were even there. he only turned around when one of his dead squad mates fell down infront of him when we killed them.

I thought it was the game that was glitched at first but his score was like 36|11 on the ENTIRE MAP. meaning we went from the park - through the subway until we were pushed right back to the final base.

not sure if we're allowed to name and shame assholes here so i'll put it up anyway and mods can moderate shit if they want.

His name is:

Looks pretty good, why do you have AA post off though? When I play ultra I just have that on anyway.

I thought there was no "ultra"settings in the beta? And also no DX11? I thought I read this a few times in this thread.....no?

Ultra settings are readily available in the beta and DX11 is working just fine as well, I don't know where you heard otherwise but they were mistaken.

Posting in clubhouses doesn't add to your overall post count.

I read that somewhere too (can't remember where, since I'm registered in countless BF3 forums) that changing between low and ultra wouldn't change squat. Now I only play on low anyways for stability's sake, so I can't confirm that.

No, you're mistaken. It's already been said that high = ultra settings for the beta. Though, there's probably a mixture of things as many of the setting don't change a thing, even after a restart. It's definitely is not using any tessellation at all on any setting.

Oh! Post count doesn't work in the Club Forum.

Ok so now its clearer. There's so much chatter everywhere that its hard to get a bearing on some seamingly easy stuff to understand.

So High looks better than Ultra in the beta? Or High and Ultra are the same in the beta with the real Ultra settings only being in the final game?

Ordered a HD5750 right now, will see if it overclocks to 5770 levels and see how the beta runs. It's the system in System specs btw.

The more I use Battlelog and the browser-based system the more I like it. Especially for things like ease of monitoring and multitasking. Ctrl-alt-del didn't always cut it, you know? Also this takes load and tons of queries off the game servers and backend as well.



P.S. That thing doesn't read my cpu freq correctly it's presently 3933...

Supposedly they are the same. I really don't think any DX11 features are being used at all in the beta.. Definitely doesn't look like it.

Oh, and hacks are definitely out there, ran into a couple guys last night using them. A little internet searching will reveal that it's unfortunately true. Also, there's no PB enabled for the beta so it's easy for asshats to do.

If they aren't the real ultra settings then I can't wait to see them in the final game even if I have to overclock to run them at max

Also I haven't run into any hackers yet so perhaps it won't become widespread.

One thing i DO like about this game Is the whole bonus/reward system. even if you dont fire a single round or kill a single person in game. you get points for supporting your team.

you get ponts for providing supressing fire.

I <3 BF3

Just noticed a locked TDM server named "Test".

Also my favorite playername I've seen so far is "AsianSensasian".

Dude on a giant map with vehicles like Caspian it really won't be such a big deal. And besides the lack of prone (such as in BC2) is really what isn't the norm...

Speaking of BC2 it's still much fun but now already seems kinda antiquated to me (and we haven't even really seen and played BF3 for real yet...)

Providing suppressing fire and getting points for it is a great thing, it encourages teamwork.

Indeed to both. Also the suppression points gives one something else worthwhile to do if they don't feel like being on the front lines (or in a vehicle or sniping of course). I really like the new roles too e.g. the Support class with ammo and Assault as Medic.

The beta still runs in DX11 though even no its probably not using all the features the retail game will.
