Either call or do live chat. Don't wait for it to resolve itself.

These maps are frickin awesome. I love this expansion. It is a great mix of infantry and mech.
They did a great job. BF3 is the best game out. I still suck and rant to myself , but man this shit is Cool.

Disturbingly enough it actually did solve itself within a few minutes. Just kept refreshing the B-Log page and it eventually auto-logged in (like usual) and I was in.

I been jumping into empty servers and doing some recording, trying to just listen to the sounds and get some good slow pans of the levels. Turns out theres a ton of background sounds I would have never heard if I hadn't just jumped into an empty server, also got some really great footage of the levels. Take a look.

Speaking of donkey sounds your momma...oh never mind. (that was not directed at any one in particular FYI )

Gunny joined my server! But then he proceeded to end up on the other team and stole my tank and kilt me wit it. I had been attracted by the sound of an enemy Little Bird as the Stinger had already provided me 4 or 5 delicious kills! Full-sized Markaz with vehicles is really fun.

On a side note of me killing people, the SCAN Bolt for the crossbow does not just put enemies on the minimap, it f$&* SPOTS them. It is like if you hit Q, but it works through buildings, walls, etc.

And the Explosive Bolt has the biggest drop of any weapon ever. I think I can throw grenades farther than that thing.

So far it is a great utility weapon as you get Super Spot, Anti-Vehicle measures, and silent killing at a distance all in one.

Hello Fellow BF3 player's. I Don't Know if any of you are having this Problem, However , I figured I Would Post in Regard's to it, Since Origin "Claims" to have Never heard of it, until I Contacted them today. So if You ARE experiencing this "AD PROBLEM" I assure you They Know , Because I Called them about 10 minutes ago myself. Over the Past Couple of week's , I have been Getting Damn popup ad's From origin, that are their "featured Today" Ad's. They Popup EVERY time I finish a game/Match, No Matter How many I play. So essentially 10 matches = 10 F@$%ing Popup Ad's. I finally had enough , and Contacted them Not Too long ago. They Said "we have never heard of this issue, but rest assured we WILL resolve it ASAP" Apparently their tech team is light on the Weekend's , which I can appreciate. So they Will hopefully have it resolved by Monday/Tuesday. I included a image of the Particular Ad in case you ARE having the Same issue, if NOT , then Please IGNORE this post. Thanks to ALL , and to those who are in My Boat, Hopefully this will be Over with Sooner, than Later.

Best Regard's


P.S. , I am Already a premium member, So this ad is annoying even More so. I have NO issue with the Ad when You open origin, but Over ,and Over again is Too much, and this Should NOT be what $80-$100 of Game Get's You/Me.

That is the most random use of capital letters I can ever remember seeing.

If you leave it up in the background it doesn't pop up every time. Just a hint.

Oh I see the "scan bolt" is like a radio wave.

Yeah had some good times playing AM this weekend. I love spraying the P90 with laser sight, man. No praying required.

I had a great time yesterday trying out the HE bolt but from previous reports (PS3 player) the HE bolt has been nerfed for PC players. It originally did close to 3/4 damage to vehicles but after playing yesterday I found out that even 4 direct hit HE bolts would not even destroy a tank. Another thing is that splash damage is worse that first talked about. I now cannot see a reason to use the HE bolt?
