Battlefield 3

[PLightstar]

No because the single player is a feature of the game and not an item. Otherwise you could say, why would you use the jeep in the mp when there's tanks or Helis about to get from A-B.

Same here, working my way through the campaign to get familiar with how it operates before venturing online and getting my arse kicked by spotty 10year olds

I've just dived straight in. It scares me that there are people on there up at level 40-odd already; they must have literally nothing else to do.

It did occur to me as I ran around on level one with my iron-sighted AK74 and the arse hanging out of my basic chamo uniform, that the ranking system on these games is all wrong; a real test of skill would be that you start with every possible piece of kit and as your rank and skills rise, the whistles and bells are taken away from you, so by the time you're a general all you have left is a knife.

Hehe, sounds like a fun "rank-up" system So how are you faring online? Getting butt-fucked?

Levelling up in FPS's is really gay. Really really really gay.

Does this game have perks, similar to BFBC2?

 

[Mabs]

npot sure if the link works but :
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/Lindraskada/weapons/251076844/pc/
is my profile. you can see all the weaps, perks, etc, when they unlock,what they do, etc

Why not? I paid for the game, why shouldn't I play everything it has to offer.

well this time they have tried to make an entertaining "action movie" type blast to play, they are expecting the sp to help shift close to code numbers specialy on consoles, a lot more peeps pld the sp and less of the mp side of the cod games since cod4 far more than the numbers that pld the mp. thats where the majority of the money will be, the DLC that will surely come will make them money but not as much as the game it self

 

[throdgrain]

Is this game working now by the way? How are the bugs? And Origin? Not opinion, facts

had no probs with it, at all

but take a number tbh

 

[Yaka]

fine for me runs fine on ultra. origin is a bit pants tho even if server has slots available you can join firends as it says server full and the queue is maxed

 

[Aada]

Well last night I gave the SP a go, and you know what? It doesn't deserve the slate it got I mean what's actually fucking wrong with it? You play as several serviceman/woman and the game is more realistic then COD.
I'm enjoying the campaign sure its not amazing but its not bad either.

 

[Dudley52]

Theres no "wait till server has slot" option like steam games. So getting on your preferred server is not always possible.

BF3 closed randomly on me twice last night in the space of an hour.

 

[DaGaffer]

So how are you faring online? Getting butt-fucked?

Totally. Be better when I've learned the maps.

 

[mank!]

Okay so BF3 runs like absolute slop on my machine.

Anyone for QW?

.

well ive come across it twice so far.

 

[Mabs]

there is a queueing system, but its per server

Deebs, how come you have not played one single MP match?

 

[throdgrain]

He's a noob

[Yaka]

Conquest only server! - join join join - brand new

 

[Embattle]

Quite a few servers around, I tend to park myself on the Via 64 one, Yaka was just there with me but being so late it gets rather dead.

 

[Yaka]

quite enjoyed secondary tanking and never knew the AA tank was so effective!

one thing tho i got acog unlocked end of one or 2 games but cant seem to see it in the load out menu eveything else thats been unlocked is there just not acog

 

[Embattle]

I can't help too much on that as I would look for it there as well.

 

[throdgrain]

Been a week since Ive had this game, and MW3 a week too.

I've played MW3 twice, and BF3 for 8 hours 43 minutes ... I'm sure that says something

Must say I by far prefer the hardcore servers, I hate all them orange triangles telling you where the bad guy is, looks rediculous to me, and I hate how you have to empty half a magazine into someone for them to die. In hardcore it's 2 or 3 hits maximum and the fucker's dead lol

I have the same problem; a bunch of unlocks I can't see. Love the mobile AA as well, especially the US one

I've asked around and apparently you'll find it in the "customise" tab in their oh-so-well designed weapon selection pull-down menu.

 

[Yaka]

looked there but its not there other stuff is just not acog

 

[Ono]

I am only playing on 64 player Conquest servers and really enjoying it. Single player campaign seems to suck balls though and I reckon I will gravitate to MW3 for single player.

Can't wait for the old maps in December.
