    Just wondering what your plans are?

    I am hoping to finish work at 1 (will be tough) and then will go to the shop and get a kilo of jellies and be home for 2 where I have free-time for a day or so cos I wont have my 2 kids.

    Will go on, mouth full of jellies, and crank up a Rush game on a random map (PS3 player here)

    YES!

    If my new graphics card has already arrived then I don't need to worry about that. Otherwise, I will come be home around 6:30. I'll play with my Son until he goes to bed at 8:00, then an hour or two quality time with the wife until she goes to bed around 10:00.

    Then I'm taking my 42" TV upstairs - plugging it into my new card, putting on my sennheiser full surround headphones - setting up my mini fridge with 2L of Coke and playing Battlefield until around 4:00. Kiddo will be up around 7:00 so will have to get at least 3 hours sleep.

    BRING IT.

    I opted not buy my copy in Gamestop because they are robbers and they are the only ones doing a midnight launch near me.

    So I will be heading to Smyths at 10am to get my pre-ordered copy then home for a full day of multi player and more than likely into the early hours of Saturday morning.

    I wont play single player for a few weeks. I usually leave that for anytime my internet is not working.

    When you want the 'Q' button to be used as sprint, you may have to press the Save button (Unless it Auto-Saves) or a button for the spot/comms so that you'll be able to use that.

    Not 100% sure, just a guess.....

    Step 1. Ring manager and see what shift I'm on for the weekend.
    Step 2. Stock up on essential survival items.
    Step 3. Go to gamestop in Blanch around 10:30 to pay off the price of the game.
    Step 4. Go back around 12ish and collect said game.
    Step 5. Depending on shift, ethier play to early hours of morning, or wait till after work.

    ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE.

    1. Finish work at 5:00pm.
    2. Collect nephew from the sisters as he is staying for a sleepover with our own 2, I made the mistake of promising to bring them to Dublin Zoo on Saturday (please let the floods come back).
    3. Start the install and do updates (PC) at around 7pm.
    4. Get them all to bed for 9pm.
    5. Stay up until 2/3am before falling into a squad based dreamworld of blood and mayhem.......

    ;)

    I won tickets to the launch event in Dublin on Friday but I've work until 5:30 with no days off left to take and not paid until Friday of next week. I have BF3 pre-ordered and paid for so I could collect after work and play until the late hours or I could come up with some lame excuse to get off work early and bum a lift to Dublin.

    Anyone you can unlock this, do it straight away, what a great game, don't put it off till Friday. Don't blame me if any bans are handed out ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,908 ✭✭✭mozattack


    What will be the first level and mode you will try?

    I am thinking of going to Caspian Border and Rush. Going to be strange having no idea of the map layout and getting murdered until I get used to it and kick ass!

    Food wise going to spend around €10 on jellies and devour them over the next 10 hrs from 5pm on!!!!

    The first level that I would like to try is Wake Island. It was one of my favourites and I will love it once I play it on BATTLEFIELD 3.

    Food wise as well, going to spend over €10 on a take-away and that will have to do me for a long time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 565 ✭✭✭DoBhrionn


    Go to Game and pick up the game,
    Drop game by Ps3 at home,
    Go to school,
    Come home,
    Play for about an hour or two,
    Go to an 18th, (alcohol to be consumed)
    Come home to play more until early day break.
    Go to bed for an hour,
    wake up and go to work.

    Wake Island is not part of the release day content. I'm afraid you're going to have to wait another month to get Wake Island. It's a part of a DLC coming out in a month or two; you won't be able to play it on day one.

    There are 20 - 30+ EU servers up and they are all full. If they hand out bans they will be handing out a lot of them.

    1 - Check and see if the game has arrived.
    2 - If the game hasn't arrived then you wouldn't be too fascinated by what follows that.
