I notice a lot of people seem to be playing just to get dog tags etc, i knew this would happen, carrot and stick syndrome, they just know human nature perfectly don't they. BFpokemon anyone.
 
meh dog tags are gay, I prefer collecting the names on the dog tags, but DICE removed the awesome feature of browsing through and see who was on the receiving end of my knife.

Playing BF3 to rank up and unlock dogtags? I'm assuming thats what you mean. If so, I doubt it. Only time people really see these is if they knife, you, and thats one person you would rather not be showing them too. If someone is seriously sitting at their comp looking numerous hours in a day just to unlock more tags (rather than sittings there just to have fun), then they have something seriously wrong with them.
 
OKC just wanted to honor Payton, cause it doesn't look like Seattle will have a team before the 5 year deadline, but I understand why he wouldn't want it to happen.

As far as the tags, I do believe I got yours :nutkick: but I'm sure you'll return the favor.

To be honest, I secretly cheered OKC on last year during the playoffs. I'm looking to add your tags to my collection.

If you get any extra codes I would appreciate them being passed on. How many codes are there? And are they all for different tags?

**EDIT**
Holy crap, Pile-O Bones is awesome, I want that.

Yeah, Pile-O-Bones is pretty legit.

I really want the hello kitty one!!!

It's my favorite dogtag from the promotion. JD15 got it from me last night, I wonder if he can use it.

All I can think of...

(Be sure to read the first review...if you haven't already years ago lol)

If that's a link to the Three Wolf Moon t-shirt on Amazon, yeah I've read it. The Six Wolf Moon dogtag is twice as epic.

As far as codes go, they're all single use and can be had from 20oz bottlecaps of Dr. Pepper (don't pull the head off of the forum member). I have 2 more tags to get, but like I said, I'll post up when I got spares and PM codes when I have them.

You can redeem the codes at drpepper.com

Negatory, my primary reason to play is to have fun. Dogtags are just a part of the game, and I figure it's funny to have something semi unique to let someone take from me when I'm slacking enough to let them shank me.

It's a shame that you can't browse through your collection to see who was on the receiving end of your knife though.
 
anyone playing ? i need some friends lol

What i mean is, they put anything in a game you can "collect" and what will happen is people will just naturally try to get them all, even if it becomes the overiding reason for playing the game. Its just human nature to do that. Very well done on the game developers part.

TBH i don't really see the need for dog tags, weapon/gear unlocks i can kinda dig, but some of the dogtags you can get are just stupid. Is there a my little pony dog tag yet?

Nope, doesn't show up for me.

I know what you meant, but the way you conveyed it was pointing fingers. Honestly, I don't think many people will be playing to unlock tags, people have always played to unlock weapons, simply because people like to use the weapons they enjoy. A tag doesn't do much for you as you never really see it. So I'm just saying I don't agree with what you said, I have barely even heard anyone talk about dog tags.

Well that must be seriously frustrating. I already saw a guy with over 200 dog tags last week complaining how hard and inconsistent knifing seems in this game.

anyone playing ? i need some friends lol

Did you add me? Tho I work 9-5. Hey guys DOM bought my boxed copy for $40 (paid $48) and he was able to use the code for a download and I got to keep the box and disc! Worked out really well. :)

What's your Origin/soldier name?

Last night that was me :laugh: I do love to collect others tags, especially TPUers. Think I had to shoot Wrigley (then I died) because he was prone and jammed into a wall. And erocker I was standing behind but it wouldn't grab him so I had to shoot him as well (then I died). And one other person it happened for. The most annoying part though is hitting the knife, watch nothing happen, then dying because you wasted time with it.
 
yeah Wrigleyvillain i sent a request im xxXDOMXxx :p

im at level 4 already wish i had better guns lol

and where are te game settings at wtf origin :mad:
 
Don't get me wrong, BF3 has better graphics, realism, effects, etc. But, the main flaw for BF3 is the server issues, graphic issues, battlelog issues, and other minor things. I personally love BF3. However, what MW3 will have the advantage over is the story. BF3's story was meh

really our going to beat up on BF3 story when BF was never a single player story line game?? Its a bonus that they put it in. BF3 is a Multiplayer game. Do you not remember all of Blackops issues when it was released. It is not DICE's fault there are these issues, it is however EA's. IF they would have dalyed it another month of so it would have been solid,but EA rushed it out. One thing you get from DICe though when it comes to their games is they support it and listen to the community for any fixes till their next game comes out. Honestly who updates their previous game weeks before their new one comes out(BC2 was updated with new hit reg a few weeks before BF3 came out) oh i know DICE does because they support the games they release no matter how long its been. Also the issues with BF3 are so minor it should not be a game breaker at all. Get real
 
Has any one got green flickers i think its becasue i run it with vsync off in any other game a refresh line would visible not a green flicker.

yes i do, somethings


Anyone been playing after the R7 Server patch was released? Anyone notice any differences??
 
Green flicker...Yes, it happens here, but not too often. The higher the memory clock on my cards, the more often it appears.

Noticed both in Crossfire and singlecard config. I'm using the official 11.10's with latest app profile. The beta driver had MORE green flicker.
 

Too bad they haven't made a chart, though still some useful information.

I haven't been running latests drivers, OC'd and unlocked card, but I haven't bothered with profiles and the game has ran great.
 
I have noticed with the newest drivers, I do not get green flickers anymore.
 
Umm i using the newest drivers i know its to do with the frame rate do you guys use vsync ?
 
Me, no V-sync. I am working to see if I can figure out which card causes the problems, and I'm gonna RMA it.
 
interesting M60E has lower damage then the 240B but at mid range the M60E will kill faster then the 240 or 240B even tho the M60 has a slower rate of fire, vs the 240 and 240B its rather interesting to see

also dave no point in RMAing for the green flicker,

its a Game Engine bug,

its along the same lines as the black flicker seen with BC2 its an inherent issue with Frostbite engine,

Is there some sort of chart you see this on? I couldn't find any on there, just a wall of text.
