Crap. Did I just call beer beautiful?

Origin is a piece of shit.

Try complaining on Battlefield's facebook/twitter page
They actually respond to people a fair bit. (Whether they do anything about it, I don't know)

edit: I was reading this which said there had been a price drop on Back to Karkand, but I'm sure it's always been £12?

It's all good brother. I was on team speak and was laughing about it.
We had a total shit team. I'm off tomorrow how about you ? No ones
home so I can game in peace. No wife saying it is to loud. I have couple
ribbons to get and I'll be good for the weekend.

Guess tomorrow I will try and get two more emplacement kills and 2 savoir ribbons.
Then work off a couple other achievements. Got my ass whooped this weekend.

Quick question. If i bought the B2K DLC now, would it acknowledge everything i've already done towards the assignments?

For example, i have hundreds of revives and heals, one of the assignments is to do 10 heals and 10 revives, so would i already have that without playing? Or is it a clean slate when you purchase it?

What screen would you guys buy aimed for BF3.

There seem to be a few cheapo IPS panels from LG but I don't know hows that for gaming.
Was getting wet for a 120Hz TFT but those IPS colours look so sexy. so

TFT 120Hz 16:9 FullHd ?
IPS 16:9 FullHD ?

Also was wondering if theres a chance for a 16:10 screen as IMHO its a better universal aspect for general/gaming PC use?

I didn't get to do much testing of FPS over the weekend due to alot of family things going on but I will say that with it on high with 2xMSAA, Im getting 45-60FPS on stock.

I bought myself Dell H2311U (a pretty cheap IPS monitor). I didn't regret it at all and now I can't stand the regular TN panels.

So, I'd have to agree with brandonwh64 here, go with the IPS.

It only works on normal preset servers. If the server is a hardcore server then 3rd person is not available.
