I just hope they patch up the 2 new Recon snipers from the Back to Karkand expansion.

I have been playing the expansion quite a bit now, so I have unlocked some great weapons.

the QBU-88 Recon sniper has a terrible bug, unplayable (YOUTUBE IT)

I have been playing around with my new L96 and its a great sniper, Something new to spice it up compared to SV98/M40A5.

The L96 also has a bug, the strait bolt I still have to scope out even with a strait bolt mod, or Press fire twice to get a reload(Precious min seconds lost= death).

I am still using it though, and I am already headed for my first service star with it, 5,000,000 to go

How much better would a x8/x8 crossfire board
be and match my current 6870 over what I have
now on my spec's gamer.
New Board would be a Asus M4A89TD Pro/USB3

Thanks

For an idea on Crossfire performance, check this benchmark page: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...e,3063-11.html

Also includes different detail settings for single cards, AMD and nVidia, what it takes for Ultra, CPU scaling, and more. Really helpful article if you're wondering how hardware will pair up with the game.

There's a proper way to report a cheater. Go onto their profile page, there's a little icon to report them:

Planet Battlefield - BF3: Back to Karkand Release Times & R12 Server Info

Quote:
Monday, 12 December, 2011 at 10:47 PST | ^Scott^ | Print News

The Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand expansion is set to be released tomorrow for PC and Xbox 360 players. Playstation 3 users got their hands on it last week. Below are release times and information for servers owners. If you join a server that has Back to Karkand maps in the rotation and you do not own B2K, you will be warned, but servers can mix vanilla and B2K maps.

Also, there will be maintenance period tomorrow. (1am PST - 2am PST)

Quote:
Tomorrow between 10am CET and 11am CET we are going to perform maintenance on Xbox 360 and PC.

Back to Karkand Release Schedule
13th December
Xbox 360: starting at 09:00 GMT (1am PST / 4am EST)
PC digital: starting at 08:00 GMT (12am PST / 3am EST)

15th December
PC code in a box

BF3 PC Server R12 is due next Tuesday
BF3 PC Server R12 will be released on Tuesday Dec 13th. The central systems will be down during 0900-1000 GMT.

We will have a downtime for the master servers. The RSPs will begin updating their game servers at this point. Those admins which have had their servers updated to R12 can then add the Back to Karkand maps to the map rotation.

There will not be any client update - all that was taken care of last week.


Server R12 manual is available here: http://static.cdn.ea.com/dice/u/f/bf...inistrator.zip [static.cdn.ea.com]




Changelog
* General crashfixes
* Fixed problem where kits would remain on the level for a long time (>10 minutes); this would eventually make the server keel over
* The Back to Karkand maps are included


Notice that there are two variations on the Conquest gamemode. The differences are mainly to do with the flags. You will see a "#2" after the map name for a server that runs the second Conquest variation.

Game servers can mix and match B2K and non-B2K maps. Players who have not purchased B2K will be warned if they attempt to join a server with B2K maps in the rotation. Quickmatch will not send those players to servers with B2K maps in the rotation either. The guiding principle here is: if possible, avoid having people get kicked from servers.
Edit: updated sever outage time from Battleog post.

I finally figured out how to work VoIP. All people have to be in a party. Party is for voice and chatting but only supports up to 8 people from the looks of it. It works pretty good. I especially like voice activated.

But we need VOIP when in a squad cause it would be nice to communicate by voice to people even if they are not on your friends list

ALSO! Played some strike at kirkand think morning and I LOVED IT! its huge but still not as big as the original. There is tons of places to hide and a lot of players do not understand how an urban environment is when in combat. It is the most hardest place to wage a battle due to the numerous locations to hide and shoot.

New Battlefield Blog Post: Back to Karkand out now on PC and Xbox 360!

Quote:
BY: HBrun POSTED : Dec 13, 2011, 02:00AM

Today, we are rolling out our expansion pack Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand on PC and Xbox 360! Check out this new gameplay trailer from the Sharqi Peninsula map, then follow the instructions below for how to get started. See you on the reimagined battlefield!



We are happy to announce that Back to Karkand is out now on Xbox 360 and PC! Should you get Back to Karkand? Kotaku asks -- and then immediately answers YES.

If you haven’t followed us before, Back to Karkand is our first expansion pack for Battlefield 3. It features four legendary Battlefield 2 maps reimagined in the Frostbite 2 engine, with enhanced levels of destruction.

More than just a map pack, Back to Karkand also features 10 new weapons to extend your arsenal (you can bring these new weapons back to the base game maps), three classic vehicles from Battlefield 2, including the STOVL fighter jet (excellent for hovering and capturing bases), Desert Buggy, and and APC, five new dog tags, and an added layer of persistence with the all-new Assignments you need to complete to unlock new weapons.

Now go back to Karkand and let us know what you think in the Battlelog forums! To find your new maps, just use Quick Match or the server browser as you normally would. The four new maps will appear together with the nine ones from the base game. For a full guide on how to use the server browser on console, check out this guide we prepared earlier. Just make sure you apply the latest multiplayer update for Battlefield 3, or you will not be avle to access Back to Karkand.

If you are a Limited Edition owner, you are entitled to this entire expansion pack at no extra charge. Otherwise, you can buy it for PC from Origin at $14,99 or for Xbox 360 from Xbox Live Marketplace or the in-game store for 1200 Microsoft Points.

For an FAQ on Back to Karkand, go here.
For the full info on today's Battlefield 3 client update on Xbox 360, go here.
For a guide on how to find, buy, download and play Back to Karkand on Xbox 360, go here.
For a guide on the Battlefield 3 server browser on console, go here.
==================================================

twitter.com/zh1nt0: "We´ve located the issue with "game content not available" for Karkand users. Will roll out a fix in the next couple of hours! #ontheway"

Definitely agreed. Should be true for Co-Op too.
