    Did you pick it up in store or delivery? There should be a piece of paper with the codes on it with it. (at least there is with the PC version)

    I got it in store. I got 2 leaflets and a warranty thing. One leaflet had the Online Access Code, the other had the Gun Club Code for the M1911.

    I think the maps are really well designed, however the favour Rush slightly more than Conquest! Havent tried the other game modes yet. Also expect things to be laggy and slow this evening, they've shifted over 10 million units already!

    10 million!? Where did you get that? Blacks ops only sold 6 mill on day one!

    Feck.

    I thought I'd been reading that the release version runs better?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,789 ✭✭✭grizzly


    Games are running surprisingly smoothly for me with no crashes so far. Of the ones I played last night I didn't experience any lag. Although I was picking quick match each time, so maybe I was matched to the lowest possible pings.

    Are you guys playing with the Boards Platoon tonight? Does it work well for keeping folk together?


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,199 ✭✭✭✭Headshot

    Probably for some but It keeps crashing and I never had the problem with the beta

    The beta ran perfectly

    Balls. BF2 all over :(

    Full uninstall / reinstall work? Drivers?

    Bloody hell, I remember in BF2 even doing a full format to get the damn game to work. Hope it doesn't get that bad. Anything online about the problem?


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,199 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    anyone playing bf3 on windows 7 32bit?

    Heard its having trouble with that windows version


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 3,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭ktulu123


    I had some problems with the .exe crashing while starting a game earlier during the week, seems to of been fixed now. I haven't had any in game ctd's (Thank fúck) 64bit Windows here. You've obviously updated everything including the new Nvidia drivers out recently?

    Put a post in the feedback section of Battlelog and detail your system specs etc.

    They are constantly working on issues being brought up in there.

    Just got into my first game there after 15mins trying (xbox) Serious lag. I heard wingsofredemption on about changing something in the settings so that you get a server close to you. Anyone know what he means?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 10,518 Mod ✭✭✭✭5uspect


    Haven't had a single problem with MP or SP apart from the awful QTEs.

    If you manually choose the server instead of quick match you can pick a game to join that has the best connection.
    There's a meter to indicate your connection strength(a la call of duty) on each server just go for the ones with full bars or the most bars.
    I've had 5 bar connections available most of the time.
    I can't even blame the lag for how crap I've been :)

    EA's method of promoting the game in London:

    For the pedantic, it's not a tank it's an SPG, looks like an Abbot specifically:

    Been reading other forums and alot of people are having the same trouble and EA have said it's suppose to be because of DirectX being corrupt


  • Registered Users Posts: 623 ✭✭✭Shy_Dave!


    Ahahaha!
    Was dusting my computer today, on a break from BF3.
    Plugging everything back in I realised I had rear speakers for 5.1 surround sitting in my closet.
    I've never played with 5.1 before... I still haven't tried it but I'm cackling maniacally here knowing it.will.be.epic! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭vard


    I haven't had any major trouble so far, but I do get the odd game which crashes for no reason to desktop. No error message or anything...

    Anyone had this?
