![]() Ok, so I've played it for a few hours. What I like: - Battlelog. The website itself is cool. Works well, detailed, easy to join matches. - The graphics. Incredible. So incredible in fact it motivated me to finish the craptastic singleplayer campaign. - The performance: flawless for me, with everything maxed out. - The hit detection: unlike BC2, I've had zero issues with it. - Some of the maps are pretty great. - Sound effects: audio eargasm What I don't like: - Battlelog. No matter how good it is, it doesn't excuse the fact it's a god damn website, and having the game running isn't a persistent experience, at it should be. - Some of the maps are pretty crap. - The UI, which is the biggest minus for me. It's really really bad, no matter how you look at it. The chat window, the map, the lack of character customization anywhere but in game, the cramped interface for said character customization, the inability of accessing any useful stuff unless you're actually playing, etc. - the singleplayer campaign. They had enough money to cover the sovereign debt of Greece and the best they could do was a COD clone with quicktime events. COME ON ! At this point I have to say I liked Bad Company 2 better. |

![]() Yeh BF3 is good, but imo its a step down from BC2 in many ways and is much closer to MoH/CoD, plus I miss the jungle maps from BC2..

![]() ![]() I'll probably change my mind in a few days; I've played a lot of BC2, I knew all the maps very well, knew how to play, it was a pleasant, familiar and comforting experience. BF3 is a huge unknown for me at this point, and that's probably why I'm siding with the Bad Company. |

In some respects the inconsistent map quality is down to the fact that they wanted everything playable in all the modes. They didn't do that in BC2 (patched it later as "new" maps). My point is that I think the map quality and range is better than BC2, I think that firestorm and caspian are better than any of the BC2 maps and possibly better than all of them combined. Of course BF2 maps were huge and open conquest marvels, at least we get a few of those free in a few months. Have you tried rush and deathmatch on the non-conquest friendly maps? So far I've enjoyed them more than BC2. |

![]() BF3 is the better game for sure, but its like they took 3 steps foward and 1 step back from BC2.

![]() It is my understanding that Bad Company (1 and 2) was console version of Battlefield. It was never meant to be a successor to original Battlefield (PC) franchise. |

![]() A question. I discovered that there's PnkBstrA.exe running all the time under Process tab in Windows Task Manager. After Googling, I confirmed that it is in fact, Punk Buster. PnkBstrA.exe is listed all the time even BF3 is not running. (checked straight after cold boot) Why does this process listed even I'm not doing anything related to online game play nor BF3 ? I don't like it - kinda like a spyware.. |

![]() Does anyone know which scope has the very thin lines that form a cross for the assault, I can't find it it's pissing me off.

![]() Ok, I can't figure this out. How the hell do I use the scopes and grips that I've unlocked? I don't see an option to equip your weapon with any features? |

![]() Go to customize, in the loadout there is option to change guns etc for each class. Select loadout. Once there, and you are on a gun, it will show accessories. Accessorize the shiz and pump some bitches. |

![]() Kind of ticked off finding a low ping server. I set the filter to 1-5 slots open all maps, all game modes and most of them are almost full and some that aren't I click on to join become full at that instant. Does this game need more servers up or what?

![]() Any ideas how to fix an issue where changing any setting seems to knock out the resolution? I get borders around my max resolution for some reason. Its like it knocks out the scaling or something (latest drivers) so I have a 1920x1080 bordered and blurry instead of max and sharp. Ive tried adding custom resolutions etc but nothing worked, (ati)

![]() i just started playing co-op and its currently my favorite mode with the 1 map, but get this.... DICE didnt include a chat feature in a co-op match!!!! i mean seriously, WTF??? how could they forget to include something this simple???? really sucks that this is obviously still BETA, i mean there's no excuse for this. massive fail for them. i can't communicate with my partner and tell him where to go or where im going. its such a rudimentary feature, how could they overlook this?

![]() Anyone else experiencing an issue with not being ableto change "Terrain Quality" to anything higher than Medium in the Video options? I've seen this issue on two other fora - both with Nvidia cards. I can set everything else up to High or even Ultra but not Terrain Quality. This option only have low and medium available ( Though I don't plan on having everything on ultra with my current card) I've tried setting Overall graphics setting to Auto but it still does not go any higher than medium. Restarted game several times and it does not help either. I have only tried the Campaign. My setup: [email protected] 4870X2 with Catalyst 11.10 Preview and latest Application Profiles. Windows 7 64bit Is there a way to alter the settings manually in a ini file or something? |

![]() The terrain uses tessellation and a DX11 card is required for that No "fix" possible unless Dice suddenly implements support for the HD3000/HD4000's tessellator unit |

![]() I think you can safely lay the blame for a lot of the shortcomings at the fact that its a multiplatform release. As soon as the consoles were getting it, thats when I knew sacrifices were going to be made. I never believed all their BS about the PC getting 30% bigger maps either. From what I gather, consoles and PC have the exact same maps. The only thing which can really save that is if a miracle happens, and EA grants permission to allow release of mod tools, so then the PC guys can create their own maps. If that ever does happen, it will be after we have swallowed 2-3 map packs first.
