I'd say it's not the ping it's your machine. 4GB is not enough for this game. As you say it starts fine in time it will fill your RAM. Try lower your settings and try again.

wow, no it's not. 25ms is good. i try for under 30 but anything under 60 is fine. people play with 100 and own me but i wouldn't go much higher comfortably.

did you do the test selecting a location near to where the servers you connect to are?

how much did the ping jump around while the test was being performed?

Well I did the test and I guess it picks the one for you .

Lower what settings ? :confused:

In game. Do you have msaa enabled?

DanishDevil · Dec 29, 2011

In Battlelog, set your region if you haven't. Always sort by lowest ping and play in those servers. I just about refuse to play in servers over 60 ping. It's not entirely accurate, but it's a start.

I am not sure . I will check and see . Should I disable it ? Ok I set every thing to medium and turned off MSAA .

Ok I will check this as well and set it to 60 pings and see . I set my region to USA and I do not know how to set the ping filter but I can see green and yellow and looked for servers with the green and low ping and well going to try it out now .

you should always carry a sidearm that compliments your primary. when I roll with a shotgun, or even a pdw, I carry the .44 scoped because it has range. when I carry a mid to long range rifle, I use the m93r.

scaminatrix said:
FordGT: It might also be worth making sure you have no mods on guns that may give you away. I don't use scopes, lights or lasers; I just use reflex sight and a foregrip. I use extended mag on the M249 too. When I stopped using all the lasers and lights, my score started climbing fast and I've been consistently coming top of the board-ish. Maybe it's a coincidence and I got much better at the same time, but it might be worth a try

But yea, enemies always give themselves away to me and when I saw how easy it is to spot an enemy that's using a scope or laser, I decided not to use them again.

I don't have any gun accessories unlocked yet. We always play conquest so I always find myself in a vehicle.

Oh maybe that's why everyone finds me using the M39 EMR. It's scoped, but the people I was shooting at were so freaking far away. Then again...

Black Haru said:
as far as this goes, a suppressor is far more important. unsuppressed guns make you show up on enemies mini map. its a good way to get stabbed.

I was trying to snipe a sniper and got raped by a helicopter. Maybe I really, REALLY need a supressor. XD

I guess it's more dying for me until it gets unlocked.

Oh, and does anyone know what the gray, blue, or green ring around the player avatar means especially in the battle report?

trickson · Dec 29, 2011

Ok got it fixed now . Thank you . Till I can get some more RAM that is LOL .It works great now . Got the RAM usage down to 80% !

Hi all ! I finally managed to get my copy of BF3 (yay!), I popped in the disk more than 24 hours ago, yet I still can't run the game ! Tell me again, why does the patch distribution has to be through Origin ? Specially the 3.9 gig one !

MT Alex · Dec 30, 2011

17 minutes left on my 14.9GB download/reinstall. I'm soon to be loading levels lightning fast off my new SSD.

Now that my download is nearly complete, I'm wishing I would have selected the option to keep the installer file, maybe it's not too late, I'll have to check.

overclocking101 · Dec 30, 2011

i havent had a ram issue at all. but i have 8gb. everything runs super smooth on ultra high settings

One of the main reasons I got a hardcopy of the game. Have not had to re-download this massive game. Even the 3.9gb patch is a pain imo. :laugh:

Amazing game! I'm hooked too. Hardcore only for me though lol

I'm a C4 man - got my 100th kill with it last night.

Seems the Battle Reports are slightly broken - I play pretty much on hardcore only but all my games say Normal in the report.

Shihab · Dec 30, 2011

Does anyone know if there is an alternative way to download and install the 3.9GB patch ? Origin is acting a b*tch. I've downloaded like 12GB of the same patch over and over again, Origin always suddenly stops near the end and then does nothing. Restarting origin it starts the downloading process from the beginning ! It already took me 6+ hours in the the last try to download it

Thought I'de ask here in case someone has a quick solution before making a new thread.

Edit: Tried reinstalling both the game and the client. Also restarted my system and the client many times. didn't help :'(

The description stated that they were doing it behind their Team leaders' back while they waited for them to finish their meetings with their' Iraqi counterparts. They never noticed either. ^_^
