Yeah I did the same thing, when it fixed itself though I put old batteries in and it worked fine too so maybe its a compatibility issue with wireless keyboards?

id get my money back if i could and would get Skyrim or Rage at full price instead, but since i bought the pre order from a friend of mine at a local shop they dont refund on pre orders and hes the same dumbass that decided not to build a gaming pc and pre ordered BF3 on PC at full price lol. so granted i got BF3 for half price im still no impressed,

weapons are still fucked unless you have unlocks, i really dislike the entire unlock senario with FPS games in general even back in BF2, etc its simply put retarded, i dont need unlocks to play a game i need good hit detection good weapon balance, and great features

fucked up web server browser with a fucked up EA Downloader just renamed is asinine, along with there other design choices, Single player dosent suffer from hacking, server side latency issues or over stressed servers

also Co op campaign means i can still play multiplayer and dont have to do deal with the same shit either, so ill still get some enjoyment out of BF3, but not nearly as much as i got out of BC2.

in terms of enjoyment,

BF2 > 1942 > BC2 > 2142 > BF3

at this point thats how i look at it, and in reality 1942 and BF2 are tied, just prefered the more modern settings of BF2 over 1942 but otherwise yea. for enjoyment factor there ya go

So I'm pretty sure people are hacking now. Last server I played in, was killed twice by people on different floors of the map, or different rooms (like 5 rooms away). One guy was stuck twitching in the floor, so maybe he was glitched, but his bullets were coming straight at me, not from the angle he was stuck in the floor way away from me. The other guy though was half the map away on a completely different floor than me.

As for moving prone with a weapon. I'm very aware that it sucks, but personally, I'll crawl in prone if needed to stay alive/midst of battle.

I understand you using it, but I was responding just on the fact that you said it was realistic. It's realistic if you mean in real life it is possible for people to crouch. But it is not realistic considering the amount of use and the length of time people will use it, is not realistic, which is why it was missing in BC2 and why I didn't mind one bit.

Your KD will get better, Rush is a meat grinder. I'm only at 1.054, nothing great, but I hate this mode, it's all about camping and throwing your body into bullets. I agree about the unlocks, in BC2 I used Iron Sights on almost everything and owned, but they feel pretty useless in BF3, so I have resorted to sights. And when I unlocked a new LMG that had no unlocks it was harsh till I got a scope and extended mags. But everyone cried about it, so it's here sadly, so my goal is to just rush through it and be done with unlocks.

I don't mind the browser too much though. It's a bit clunky, but I used stat tracking sites before, and it's nice to be all rolled into one. But it's missing things like charts, or KDR/SPM for each kit. Hopefully they will add more to it later.

And as far as BF games go, so far its (based on release titles)

1942 > BC2 > BC1

If you liked modern, you missed the 1942 DC mod, was amazing, so amazing DICE bought out the guys that made it, and it inspired BF2. But I don't feel BF2 lived up to that mod in anyway, I never really liked BF2. BF3 would be behind BC1 for me, but BC2 and BC1 I played Conquest almost exclusively, so I can't judge BF3 till I get a chance to do the same.

alright guys i hope this eases any mix feelings.

“A lot of what you are seeing in the BETA doesn’t exist in the main game already. 1st Party submissions mean we couldn’t give a version of the latest code in the BETA but the retail game is well ahead of what you are seeing now with a lot more bug fixes already in place.” (We’ve also recently heard that the beta version we are currently playing is roughly a month behind the version of the game DICE is currently working on.)

It's only clocked at the stock 3.4 ghz nothing I'm using is overclocked right now.

[rampage]

i have only skimmed over the last few pages sense yesterday, but dose anyone know the deal with the 64 and 192 (yes 192) player servers on metro ???

[crazyeyesreaper]

there hacked servers and your likely to get your accourns stolen if your on any server above 32 players right now, as EA is banning those servers and people on them as well so avoid them at all costs.

[Darkleoco]

Don't use them or you are at risk of your EA account being banned.

Well I just hope you don't need the damn browser to launch single player even though something tells me its gonna be the case. You can clearly see campaign/co-op in the battlelog menu. So what happens if I don't have internet?

I miss 1942. First battlefield I played. Simple, had its bugs, but liveable. No unlock BS. I hate how every multiplayer game has this nowadays. It was great when I was a kid and played 3-4 hours a day. With my previous experience with BC2, we can surely see how its gonna play out. Players of lower ranks will be penalised, like it was in BC2 with those who didn't have magnum ammo/flak jacket. I knew i had a bad K/D ratio when I was lvl 1 up to when I had these options. By then, I had to overcome about 700 deaths. When done, I was about lvl 27 and got bored of the game and stopped playing. In the end, I mostly played with the AN94/UMP/REX, since it was the only option I had which had scopes and upgrades to stand a chance.

And yesterday, I saw a kid who was lvl 4- something, now how can you expect casual players like me to compete against this guy? He had a mini UAV which was tearing everyone apart. Most players were lvl 1-10. No wonder at the end of the map, he had a score of 30-0. And you call that level playing field? BS!

that's the way it is on random public servers. in beta, with no vehicles.

once released & with dedicated servers you can choose who you play with. much more often at least.

what makes the real difference is this is battlefield, not cod. teamplay & roles. these not only extend enjoyment but also make you more effective and die less. you don't have to run up against the lvl 40s head to head. jump in a tank and blow his ass up! or group up and do it tactical style with a sniper/medic base and an engie/assault team.

Aha, yeah you got it spot on, I'm a tankie! Sad I wasn't able to test the Caspian Border map. Funnily, I'm a kind of team player but sometimes its a bit odd. One thing I noticed for sure is that K/D takes a toll on teamplay. It makes some people hide in a bush and just cater for a better K/D. When I started caring about that, I found myself going less for objectives and more towards a positive score. You gotta agree that sometimes its less rewarding for some roles out there. Like for instance, the stats at the end of a match, team heroics should be stated, like who disabled more MCOMs, revived more players (this sadly works both ways, like reviving in front of tanks etc) and who repaired more stuff. Countless times, I've seen myself risk my life just to repair a tank which was vital to secure a point and die trying. When you look at the final score, you only see K/D ratio and score thats it.

I would have liked to play with friends, but sadly I have to work and have a family, so sometimes I just jump in for a quick match at sometimes odd hours. No wonder I find myself playing more single player RTS/RPG games lately.

meh dont care flashlight red dot blinding turns me off completely

i can understand a small penalty but full out blinding when out doors from a flashlight from 20 feet away? really or the awesome scope glare that blinds you just as badly overall the beta is shit and i feel the regular game is going to suck as well
