I am pretty sure that 45mb file is the origin app. It re-downloads it everytime you repair the game regardless.. I have done it about 4 times.

TPU TeamSpeak server and Game server are up too!

Probably will, I'll try and find the best deal on it
lowest I've seen is 30. I really hated that web browser based battlelog thing from the demo though

I don't mean to bring a downer on the whole thing but don't count on it like I did. Prepare to be fuckd over bigtime and spend your day off talking to some muppet on EA live chat..

I really hope you don't but at least keep it in the back of your mind.

At least the single player is actually pretty good

Got kicked by admin lots of times today.... I ran Punkbuster Updater (separate download from evenbalance.com) It installed 'something'. But yet i am still strangely kicked after 1 minute.

Are millions of users supposed to go thru this utter scheisse?

ps: Playing again. strange.

erm... give it a try guys. For some reason it let me play today. I was a but shit but it was very good for me. Maybe i'll fiddle with the settings but was getting 42-55 fps with ultra settings and 4xmsaa. Tad choppy so will prob defer to a slightly lower setting.

Corpse-of-ellis is my in game name.

gotta go to work now

Tick the search box that is for Punkbuster, set it to "On", supposedly that helps stop the kicks.

I mostly have it checked, don't want to game with cheaters. Thanks!

Update:

Manually updating Punkbuster *recommended*

For players that are having problems with not being able to connect, you probably want to take a look at this post.

To Manually update your local PunkBuster Security Files, [click http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php?page=dl-bf3.php ]choose "Save As" from your Web Browser's "File" Menu and explore to find your game folder and the subfolder called "pb".

Save this file in that location (/pb/pbsec.htm or /pb/pbsecsv.htm). The next time you start your game, your PunkBuster will have the latest security information necessary to accept auto-updates from PB Servers.

Yup, you're screwed. That happened to me, had to redownload the entire game, twice. You couldn't pay me to repair the game. For some reason it works fine for most, but breaks others. EA support will not help you fix it, they have no clue.

OK, I had to mess with this for the bulk of yesterday afternoon and evening. I don't know about zh1nt0's fix, but most things he's posted on the problem don't work, so I wouldn't be too optimistic. In fact, it won't because he doesn't mention the other folder.

THIS is what works. Download the pb file from HERE, extract the rar and replace the pb files in both Origin Games/Battlefield 3 and Users/User Name/AppData/Local/Punkbuster/BF3

You may think you have it fixed without doing this, but you don't. It's a server side error, and there are fixed that server admins can download, but most don't. Consequently, you will think your problem is solved because you finally get in a round, but will be frustrated again when you pick a server that hasn't updated.

cant seem to find spot..... its really bugging me.... anyone????

[boise49ers]

I am having a strange thing happen with my cursor when it goes between spawns I have to click just below the deploy button for it to work. Same to change my load out. I don't think it effects shooting while in game. What can cause that does any one know ?

I'm getting terrible lag in the single player campaign even tho the lowest FPS is 40 and average is 60 recorded by fraps. All on high settings, so i'm gonna try the 11.10 drivers and if that doesn;t help i will have to turn down the textures

Yep that map lags on every server, if I'm on a server that switches to it I just leave.

[brandonwh64]

multiplay updates them for us, but i will inquire as to when that will be done and if i can expedite it by doing it myself - see you @ 4

yeah, that's why i just removed it for now. shame cause i do like the map but the lag is unbearable.

looking forward to some fixes i'm really having no problems on the client end, but the server crashed 3 times yesterday - now i've been in enough crashed servers to know that's not rare right now - but i'd still like to have it stop

[brandonwh64]

I think the only issues I have had was 3 C2D the WHOLE time I have played since the 23rd

i will really never understand that mentality. i mean - i'm not great, but at least i try hard and earn everything i get. that's kinda the point i thought.
