Battlefield 3

Anyone else finding it hard to get full games (12 vs 12)? Played a quite a bit yesterday and only one game had a full server, others barely managed 8 vs 8...

I found it like that Thursday / Friday of last week but it seems to be ok now. I'll put it down to people not being used to the new servers and how to find a game mode that you want to play.

IF anyone fancies a U75 (PC) bash give me a shout, I run some of the most popular BF3 servers in the world and it wouldn't be a problem to password one of our servers for an hour and have a bash.

Number 1 in the UK and about 5th in the world the last time I checked. :)

Perhaps, found it again last night, took a full hour before I saw one game with a full set of people...
 
Prices have been released for the console servers. The option will be coming with the patch, hopefully next week.

1 day: $1.49

7 days: $6.99

30 days: $24.99

90 days: $64.99

So, that's £15.66 for a month and £40.75 for 90 days!

I think I'm going to buy an [ODD] server for 90 days :)

Mate, very happy to help split the cost on this.:)
 
Cool, I think Kav and Lowsta are going to chip in also.

I was thinking this setup initially.

Gulf of Oman
Kharg Island
Karkand
Sharqui
Firestorm
Seine Crossing

Hardcore

Kick and ban for intentional TK's

Not sure if multiple users can alter the settings, will do a little bit of digging and find out. I doubt it will be an issue as if you share the cost, then it makes sense that you can admin it!
 
the patch for PS3 takes absolutely ages - something crazy like 800 plus minutes - then you have to re-install the Back to Karkard content !!!! FFS
 
Nope, it was released for the PS3 earlier this week, PC today and the xbox next Tuesday I reckon.

So much for releasing it at the same time for all platforms.

They probably want to stagger incase because of network loads and fixing issues as they arise.

My internet is FINALLY back on, so I much smash some BF3 tonight :)
 
Got the patch yesterday (ps3) and yes, it sucks to download a great big patch and then be told that you have to download another gig of something you already have. The days of 'jumping on for a quick game' are long gone.

The PS3 (and i presume others) have these paid for shortcut items now. That's a fucking shit idea. I've worked fucking hard for the small number of upgrades I've managed to get. Turns out I could have bought them. :rolleyes:
 
Yea, it is irritating to think people can just slam a 20 down and have upgrades i haven't even attained yet.

What has happened to artillary? I had a few games earlier and couldn't seem to place the damn thing anywhere.

You mean the mortar?

They've made it so you can only place it in an area you can be found by an enemy player. A good thing, Death zone base mortars were really bloody annoying.

Regarding servers, you can add "VIP players" so that means you jump to the top of the queue if it's full. For the [ODD] server, I'll put all U75 xbox players onto the list. For anyone who is going to contribute, I'll kick someone to make room if it's full when you want to play.

1500 ticket Gulf of Oman on the first day anyone? :D
 
had a little play today and finally unlocked the city station for tanks, boooooya! need some players to practice with it

Also, i was playing a map today (the one with the motorway that leads to capture point a on conquest and with one of the capture points on top of a fuck off hill, then the forest and petrol station) flying along in a car, and a helicopter tried to kill me, crashed into a massive tv atennae and the antennae fell down! I didn't know those massive structures came down :eek:
 
The pylon only falls down when there's a handful of tickets left. It is scripted.

They turned destruction 2.0 down to the bare minimum because only the higher end PCs could handle it. So to stop a massive bitch fight from the console owners, they just turned it all but off. I have a feeling it may make an appearance in some DLCs though, but the FB2 potential hasn't been fully utilised because of the console market.
 
For some reason, I've really got into the campaign over the last few nights. I was hoping there would be a mission where I could get some jet practice but I haven't got to one yet. But there are some half decent missions in there.
