There's a message on the main screen saying they are having problems. Should be sorted soon.

Dunno what happened with us earlier. I joined killed someone then went to bed with a hangover lol.

 

[Kris86]

i was playing fine on the pc yesterday, and today fk me im close to throwing it out the window! Everytime the server changes maps, CRASH!

 

[Nickson]

Just completed the campaign.
Absolutely awesome! Didn't expect the little twist!

Spoiler

Where the interrogators confess that Solomon is one of their own.

Thoroughly enjoyed it! Just a tad disappointed with the ending, expected a nice little cut scene or something.

Now for multiplayer :approve:

There's a message telling you to its not working & to enter via the server list instead.

This game feels quite nice I could easily fall for it as a favourite, but no main menu?? And having to install a digital game store that's even worse than Steam is kind of tainting it for me so far...

 

[Darren S]

For the love of God....

INSTALL OFF THE f**kING DVD!!!!!!

WTF is this Origin s**t doing?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?

D.

 

[Kris86]

crap this origin/battlelog crap..why cant we double click an icon and browse servers in game?!

 

[IsaacJDean]

I didn't like Origin at first but then I got over it and played the game.

 

[Christopher]

Awesome game but I'm so bad at it at the moment.

Struggling to maintain a 1/1 KD.

 

[James28]

Well been to every store to day trying to find the Limited Edition PC version of this. Nowhere had it.
So looks like I'm gonna have to wait and order off the internet

 

[JJ!]

With you on that one lol!!! Getting bit better now!

 

[Scutch]

I don't like Rush. Much prefer Conquest. Rush is too frantic IMO. It's all a bit of a rush. Oh.

Need to find a mic too.

 

[Darren S]

PMSL - what the hell have they done to the control inputs?! I've currently got 5 (yes, 5) inputs set to the right mouse button?! :S

"Hold Esc to clear this binding". For how long? Three hours?

Utter lolz. You been doing this for years, gentlemen. At least get the bloody basics right.....

Aye. Aye you do.

I'm just ordering a Chinese then I'll be on most of the night, lol.

Yeah. You were pretty poor, lol.

All my buttons are working on the Xbox. FYI.

 

[Scutch]

LOL! Mine too.

Graphics are probably better on Sexbox as well. HD textures IIRC.

 

[Darren S]

All mine are working too. Except everything on the mouse is what DICE wants it to be - not me. I seriously do laugh at stuff like this. The most fundamental core function of a game genre that has worked fine for decades (i.e. players changing inputs to what they like), now appears to be an oversight of the devs. Utter ROFL. I've just closed BF3 down now.....

[Gavin.]

I gave in and went to Tesco, i am never pre-ordering from Play.com again. I ordered on the 16th Sept and I am still waiting, well they can now have it back!

 

[Adamm.]

somehow i missed the release of this :/ will go pick up a copy tomorow.

 

[Geddes]

I'm looking forward to be getting some decent guns, the m16 is canny but the other assault rifle I'm not keen on. Strugglingon my K/D ratio on this I'm level 4 or 5 and I'm 1.04 K/D lol pretty bad

 

[VeinAST]

Campaign delivers and not played much so far!

 

[Scott™]

Do or don't I get this :/

 

[Darren S]

I'll need to get further into this - but so far, it doesn't feel like a Battlefield game. I'm not saying that's a good or a bad thing - it's just different?

D.

 

[Darren S]

Except the bizarrely short corpse-stay time. Shoot an enemy dead, start walking forward and before you get near him, he disappears and a pool of blood remains. I can understand it with hundreds of enemies for the sake of preserving in-game RAM - but for one or two?

[Geddes]

What's the radio beacon all about?

 

[Will.]

I never played the campaign for Bf:BC2 as I got bored after the 1st level. Is this really good? I loved the campaign for COD MW:2. Might give it a bash tonight.

Noticed that on the first Co-Op mission where you blow the second tank up and it just disappears! I'm on the 360 btw.

Not overly impressed by the online play but I'll give it time. I just kept getting spawn killed all the time last night and it made it unenjoyable.

Also lots of recoil - which is very good just hard to adjust to.

I think the campaign mode in the MW games is better but it's still a fun game. From some comments I'd read I expected BF3 to be more of a sim warfare rather than arcade but it definitely feels more arcade like to me. The most challenging army game I played was probably Operation Flashpoint Red River which I really enjoyed.

I've not played BF3 multiplayer yet but will do so when I return home on Monday night.

 

[sneeks]

Oddly I just received this in my email.
I didn't participate in the beta and it's a bit late to pre-order it now!!!

[Ronin]

My god, this is good...

10 hours on multiplayer so far, its soooo addictive! Mostly rush and conquest, but also did a bit of TDM and came away with a 24/2 KD! M249 for the win. :evil:

Also a 395 metre headshot, f*ck yeah.

 

[Addicted]

Any of you gone for the Mortars unlock?
I think it's 40k xp on support, look how overpowered it is:



I mean sure, the guy may have been lucky, but damn that's an effective weapon with unlimited ammo!

Tbf - COD single player campaigns are superb. Unfortunately many people bypass them and go for the woefully flawed MP side of things instead.

Such a shame as they are really missing out, imo.

On first impressions - it does seem a tad silly with unlimited ammo. Not tried MP yet, so I don't know what the mortar's like.

Unplayable amounts of lag on servers for me tonight.

 

[v16daf]

Awesome game! Takes a little to get used to with the loads of different features!! But the more you play the easier it gets
