Battlefield 3 Clubhouse

You could've asked me, I would've let you use my account! and D: is anyone else having a problem with BBC2 and punkbuster?

Naa, Come to think of it, I have never had a single issue with BC2/punkbuster *KNOCKS ON WOOD* Ive hear tho if you manually update PB it fixes most things

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

I tried, didn't work. I'm downloading BBC2 again atm. Hopefully it works this time.

 

[brandonwh64]

So you got that 770 board working?

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

I tried, didn't work. I'm downloading BBC2 again atm. Hopefully it works this time.

You know about pbsetup.exe updater from the PB devs? Google that if not.

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

Yeah, I got it working. It turns out there never was anything wrong with it. It was my case, it was shorting it out. I put some black take on the stand offs. It's working fine now. Have my 925 Oced to 3ghz, I'm afraid to bring it to 3.2 And I tried before, it doesn't work, I click update and it says it is updated. The download is already at 99%

I was trying to verify several tweets I saw about the early beta access being only 48 hours. They all pointed to The Origin pre-order page. I don't see where it says 48 hours anywhere, but I do see this...

Open Beta for Battlefield 3 (Origin Exclusive)

Players who pre-order the game from Origin will be granted early access to the Open Beta for Battlefield 3 when it goes live in September 2011. Early Beta access is for US PC Download customers only.

Is this new (bolded)?

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

I guess the "US" part is just because your looking at the American version. And the "PC only" thing is because your prob looking at the pc version lol. I know they will open it to everyone. Like they did with BBC2.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Well the "open beta" will be everyone and all three platforms but this is saying early access for Origins buyers which means PC only. They will probably get to join along with the MOH LE folks.

Hmm that would be cool but still glad I have a boxed copy coming. My first in awhile...

 

[1Kurgan1]

AHH ok thanks for clearing that up kurgan. I was thinking it would be monthly

Oh and BTW nice gaming session yesterday! I had fun with you, reyth, and crazyeyes

Yeah, that system doesn't really have much effect on us PC players anyways, so it doesn't matter to me.

And yeah, had some fun, but I felt bad, your team was horrible, I think most of my deaths had came from you, everyone else was just bad.

Naa, Come to think of it, I have never had a single issue with BC2/punkbuster *KNOCKS ON WOOD* Ive hear tho if you manually update PB it fixes most things

I usually have PB issues if I do a fresh install of BC2, so when I do that I just manually update PB and thats fixed it everytime.

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

Check out Milk's thread on it, It fixed it for me!

 

[GullyFoyle]

Planet Battlefield got their hands on the German Origin BF3 Pre-order page, and it supposedly says early Beta access is 48 hours: "Battlefield 3 Beta: 48 Stunden vorzeitiger zugang". Go Google translate it yourself...

48 hours from now? or only get to play for 48 hours?

 

[GullyFoyle]

48 hours from now? or only get to play for 48 hours?

People who pre-ordered MoH, or order BF3 from Origin get in the BF3 beta 48 hours before everyone else. In September.

 

[TRIPTEX_CAN]

48 hours? After all the commotion it's only 48h earlier?

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

well preorder from them play the beta 48hrs early then cancel the pre order and pre order it elsewhere for the other bonuses

 

[boise49ers]

Got both systems where they should play it well.
The DLP system plays BFBC2 real good now. Got
a good sound card too. Can't wait.

 

[TheLaughingMan]

48hrs. is time for vets to claim their name.....or is your Origin name your name now? I still need them to let me change that.

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

They should let people start downloading tomorrow, lol I have a really show enet, I prob would need a day to download the beta

 

[1Kurgan1]

It's a head start in the Open beta, I don't know if those names will transfer over or not, but I wouldn't think so.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Transfer from what? EA account?

 

[GullyFoyle]

The soldier names I set up during the BFBC2 beta carried over to the final game. Stats just got reset to zero between them.

Battlefieldo - Specact & first Russion soldier renders

Spoiler

In the last few weeks there has been a lot of discussion about the Battlefield 3 Pre-Order benefits. First on a Swedish site, something about exclusive SPECACT multi player skins came up. It is to our knowledge that these renders are the SPECACT skins that come with most pre-order options. This is also the first time we’ve seen renders of the Russian units. Today we are supposed to hear more word on the pre-order benefits and the beta via the official battlefield blog. Stay tuned. Oh and big props to king0r for hunting these images.

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

The second support looks kinda weird, but the engineer looks awesome! Good thing, that's all I play.

It's been too long, I was trying to remember if thats how it worked or not. Guess I'll have to get in my pre-order sometime soon.

Too bad you did not hear that this game will have customizable hats and clothing. In fact, 1 month after the game is released they will say the game is free but you can buy stuff from the in game store. Here is an exclusive screenshot:
