it should of already done it, so your not able to log on at all ? just in origin or in battlelog also?

[Corduroy_Jr]

Origin and battlelog log in ok, its only when i lanch a game in battlelog i had that error, but single player works

[DOM]

So you just can't load a game at all ??? Dumb ? But have you tryed one with a low ping and more then one server

[Corduroy_Jr]

i cant see it being related to ping but yea ive attempted multiply servers nothing works, suck man its been going 2 days now of not being able to play

[boise49ers]

Well I have been playing assault and playing a lot better. Seems when you actually have a rifle in your hand you can kill more people. Helps that I am getting unlocks. Might even be able to crawl to .50 K/D. Also laying off the beer helps.

I had fun playing these two matches with a few TPU'ers:

hey fellas, this is slightly off topic so my apologies... i wonder if anyone who is a bf3 player here uses one of the 120hz lcds that are out? i absolutely love crts for playing fps and i'm curious if they're remotely the same feel or if it's a gimmick or what.

Anyone fancy co-op-ing with me? :P :P :P :P

I went directly from a 19" diamond vision CRT to a 22" 120Hz LCD, and it is just as good, if not better.

Sorry, only just added you. Had to nip away

Quick question people. I had Origin installed on my Storage drive (D) and Battlefield 3 installed on my Boot drive (C). This was because i didn't know you could specify locations of the games. However, it seems to stutter ALOT with this shitty SSD when i'm online, so i decided to move it. I changed the location of "Downloaded Games" in Origin's settings to "D:\Games\Origin Games" but when i restart Origin, it just say's "Battlefield 3 - Ready to download" and if i do, it downloads it to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games". Is there something i'm missing?

BF3 is now $30 at Origin.

Better grab it before it's over.

New Battlefield Blog Post: Going Back to Karkand #6: Gulf of Oman gameplay, combat vehicles revealed

BY: HBrun POSTED : Nov 28, 2011, 12:00AM

The countdown to our first Battlefield 3 expansion pack Back to Karkand continues. This week, we have new gameplay footage from our reimagining of all-time classic map Gulf of Oman. Plus, more info on the new vehicles you will be able to take control of come December.



Check out this gameplay trailer from our reimagined version of Gulf of Oman. Like in previous Back to Karkand trailers, you can see some of the new vehicles in action here. The three combat vehicles that we are bringing back from Battlefield 2 in Back to Karkand are the STOVL fighter jet, desert buggy, and one of the APC’s.

"I wanted to complement what we already have in the base game, plus I wanted to bring back some of the classic vehicles from Battlefield 2 that we know players loved, such as the Short Take-Off/Vertical Landing fighter jet and the desert buggy. In today’s trailer, you can also get a first glimpse of a hitherto unannounced fourth vehicle bound to strike fear into the very hearts of the enemy. See if you can spot it!", said Back to Karkand Lead Designer Niklas Fegraeus.

Come back later for more details on Back to Karkand. We have more videos coming your way, and more details on the new Back to Karkand weapons that you can bring back to the base game.

As always, if you pre-ordered your copy of Battlefield 3: Limited Edition, you are entitled to Back to Karkand at no extra charge and will be notified in-game once it is available for download and play in December. Anyone can buy it on the launch day for $14.99/1200 Microsoft Points, or the equivalent in their local currency. PlayStation 3 players will have exclusive 1 week early access to Back to Karkand.

New Battlefield Blog Post: How to enable Stereoscopic 3D in Battlefield 3

Spoiler

BY: HBrun POSTED : Nov 26, 2011, 04:14AM

With the latest PC update for Battlefield 3 we now support Stereoscopic 3D on supported hardware. Stereoscopic 3D adds another dimension to your gameplay and lets you experience the battlefield with added depth perception. See below for how to enable this new feature.



We have added support for Stereoscopic 3D in the Frostbite 2 engine by rendering each frame twice (once for each eye). This gives us full control of how our game looks in 3D, and lets us create an even more visceral experience for the player. Rendering each frame twice is quite performance heavy, though, so take that into consideration if you want to play with Stereoscopic 3D enabled. To improve performance, you may want to reduce graphics quality or resolution compared to what you normally would use when playing without Stereoscopic 3D. Using a multi GPU setup will also improve performance, as each GPU can share the work load.

NVIDIA 3D Vision technology
NVIDIA 3D Vision is a combination of 3D Vision wireless glasses and 3D Vision Ready monitors. You can look for the 3D Vision Ready icon on your monitor, or check this page to find out if your monitor and GeForce GPU support Stereoscopic 3D.

Enable 3D Vision by going to the NVIDIA control panel, and in the Stereoscopic 3D tab, make sure "Enable stereoscopic 3D" is set. Battlefield 3 will use the standard 3D Vision settings and hotkeys. Adjust the amount of depth effect using the scroll wheel on the 3D Vision IR emitter or by using the keyboard shortcuts. The default shortcuts are CTRL-F4 to increase the depth, and CTRL-F3 to decrease the depth. You can customize these shortcuts in the Stereoscopic 3D control panel.



AMD HD3D
See this page to find out if your monitor and Radeon GPU support Stereoscopic 3D.

Enable HD3D by starting Battlefield 3 and go into the options menu. In the video options tab, change STEREOSCOPIC 3D to ON. Adjust the depth using the slider in the menu.

hey i was in those matches. Pretty bad matches for me, but love the game no matter what. So much fun when playing with TPU'ers. We get shit done!

Anyone use the M16A3/A4 on Semi auto. Things awesome. its like a sniper! I feel like the DMR from Halo is now in BF

[erocker]

The STOVL fighter jet is going to own. I'm really looking forward to the expansion.

[FreedomEclipse]

I cant wait for the classic BF2 maps. Not saying all BF3 maps are poor, but I wouldnt complain If all the BF2/BF3 servers were all locked to Gulf Of Oman or Karkand 24/7. those maps are so much better then almost all the maps on BF3. and IMO the sad thing is.... the tweaked BF2 maps are the highlight of BF3.

even if BF2 is a little 'low-tech' compared to BF3, I can guarantee that id have a lot more fun in 1 round alone then any of the hours ive put into BF3.

thats my personal opinion of course...

well i never really played BF2, but if all the maps are wide open out doors like Caspian Border then whats so great about it. Theres no variety there. You need some maps like Grand Bazaar where theres some heavy fire stand offs over flags to make the battle more immersive. Sometimes on Caspian Border i get bored because its either you run a marathon or you sit in a tank.

I'm really enjoying this game! 8 hours in and I'm rank 12 or so. I love picking up the decent weapons it makes a big difference.


Also at the moment i'm addicted to the 1000 ticket conquest metro servers, they rock I need to train and get quick points so this suits me fine just no vehicle exp yet lol

this game is so good omg. 10x better then bc2 imo
