Battlefield 3 Clubhouse

yeah, he was in a the mobile AA, and there were very few players on the server. Heck, im' not even sure it was realyl mobile AA..same vehicle, but on a map with no air vehicles...sry, but I'm horrible at remebering map names.


I am not sure that was his exact score, but it's close enough, anyway. I'm jsut saying that it's possible, with your own server, to have killer scores. The image post above with dude jsut having one hour in the game, and being up at the top...hacks, almost for sure.

I played a good bit last night but the server was empty. Not once did it have anyone playing on it. I hope this changes soon.

me too, it was full for 1-2 hrs until a crash around 8 and then no one came back. We need to have like 8-10 people to get it started, and then it fills up pretty quickly. we need to get people adding it to their favorites, and i need to make sure it doesn't keep crashing.

 

[digibucc]

sorry for double post but i'm in there now if anyone wants to jump on for a few...

 

[WhiteNoise]

Is there a single player bot mode like they had in BF2? I'd love to play around in that for awhile when not on servers just to explore a bit.

I played a round last night on it.
It was pretty full. Got a .50 K/D
which for me is good Played support
for the first time and enjoyed that class.
You can rack up some points resupplying
in those clogged areas. I'm gonna practice
more before I subject many other TPU'ers
to mysuckage. I'll never have a good K/D so
I enjoy supporting team mates with what ever class
I am. I added to my favorites last night.

AA tank is the best tank in the game.

Yeah just got the AA tank rockets last night (and from taking out air vehicles with the Stinger too which was cool) but haven't had a chance to use them yet as apparently many people have caught on to the awesomeness that is that vehicle. It's never around. Also just unlocked HMG for the regular tanks but also haven't tried yet and not sure how it will differ from LMG in practice or which I'll prefer. I really like Caspian and have actually stated playing 32 and lower servers to actually get a good vehicle. The amount should scale with the player numbers.

To the dude asking about CAP 4:

Ill be there after I eat something. Is there a timed autokick for being idle? I have some money for you too.

Tried turning off all your overlays? example. D3D overrider, MSI Afterburner, FRAPS... no issue here but you never know, also maybe review your router settings and make sure uPnP is enabled.

Yep - nothing running. Still having issues

Yup, you're screwed. That happened to me, had to redownload the entire game, twice. You couldn't pay me to repair the game. For some reason it works fine for most, but breaks others. EA support will not help you fix it, they have no clue.





OK, I had to mess with this for the bulk of yesterday afternoon and evening. I don't know about zh1nt0's fix, but most things he's posted on the problem don't work, so I wouldn't be too optimistic. In fact, it won't because he doesn't mention the other folder.

THIS is what works. Download the pb file from HERE, extract the rar and replace the pb files in both Origin Games/Battlefield 3 and Users/User Name/AppData/Local/Punkbuster/BF3

You may think you have it fixed without doing this, but you don't. It's a server side error, and there are fixed that server admins can download, but most don't. Consequently, you will think your problem is solved because you finally get in a round, but will be frustrated again when you pick a server that hasn't updated.

Here man download this folder and place it into your BF3 install folder i spent a hour getting this to work also boot up the Campaign and go to game in settings make sure PB is on.

[(FIH) The Don]

just got the game, inserted disc, installed origin(shit)

now when it wants to activate the game, it just tays at the activation pop up thingie, after a while it say the connection has timed out or similar and i have to try later, this is 2nd hour its doing that, wtf am i doing wrong? anything in my router i have to config?

 

[brandonwh64]

Did you add the game to your origin account?

 

[(FIH) The Don]

does the same when i try to do that

 

[AphexDreamer]

NOTE TO EVERYONE!

If you repair your game (even if you think you don't need to) it will update it!

I just repaired it on a whim and it download what it called an update after verifying files.

 

[brandonwh64]

Try to take the router out of the setup and use straight modem connection. If this works then you have something setup wrong on the router

 

[(FIH) The Don]

cannot connect directly to the connection, but i have access to the router, via IP

 

[brandonwh64]

Hmm Maybe a DNS issue, try repairing your connection

Um yeah and as few of us have reported recently this screwed out whole install. I don't think there is yet any actual update and you probably got lucky.

Oh after thinking about it some more is perhaps the HMG on the tanks more for lightly armored vehicle damage? Like Jeeps and helis?

And nobody spots or throws health and ammo. Same shit as in the past I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

The AA tank is beast. The APC (where the driver has a mounted gun) is also insanely beast. It's a tank killer with it's cannon and missle launcher, plus heat vision. It's just not very common to find I guess. I'm using the CAP4 and am getting high 90%'s on both my cards.

Yea im not touching "repair" after hearing the horror stories of people not being able to reinstall.

Would CAP4 help out with a single 5850?

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Yeah need MOAR vehicles. Number and variety. And some higher ticket servers though I guess that will come.

Oh I also have not had to do anything with Punkbuster and generally have no connection problems. Maybe that will change.

Anyone know about the HMG? Bigger rounds and meant for vehicles or what?

 

[erocker]

I am willing to have a 24/7 TS3 server on my nfoservers account. Since Erocker's server is not always up and some of us game in the wee hours of the morning, I think it would be a good idea to have a dedicated hosted server. Let me know.

Do it, I'd rather not host it anymore.

I'd like to see some more open infantry maps. Right now they just seem to be murder runs. Seine River just ends up being each team owning their own side and a sniper war (which I like to break up with mortar strikes). And Grand Bazaar is just all hallways, usually with one end being at the advantage. But the BF2 maps might cure this, so I'm pretty excited for those. For now though, I just dont find guns all that useful, it's much more productive to mortar strike since there is an abundance of campers.

Yes, If you can find a Q6600 or a Q9xxx chip then you would be golden
