Battlefield 3 v3 - Now with questions - Games

Any news on an upcoming update? Or are they going to keep all the little bugs for the rest of the game's life?

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;33979519]Any news on an upcoming update? Or are they going to keep all the little bugs for the rest of the game's life?[/QUOTE] Probably. EA's support post launch on games is not anywhere near that of Valve, or Paradox, or even Garry. Instead of a patch every week, or every other weak fixing minor issues, they'll release maybe 3 larger patches in all of BF3's life span, you watch. I don't remember how many patches the previous Battlefield games got, but they weren't many I don't like people complaining that using the MAV to get on top of stuff is a glitch and should be 'patched' . It's like they don't remember what Battlefield is. Battlefield, the game where you ride on the wings of the B17 in Market Garden, launch a Jeep across Wake Island using C4, Drive your Sherman into an Anti Air emplacement and watch it fucking fly.... That [b]IS[/b] Battlefield. It's Comic Book Warfare

I think there were like six or seven total for BF2, and even after finishing post final patch BF2 still had a few bugs here and there.

[QUOTE=reevezy67;33979835]It's because of all the shit they have to go through to get a patch through microsoft and sony.[/QUOTE] The only issue with that is the patch doesn't go live instantly, it could take a few weeks for Sony/Microsoft to deploy it. That isn't an excuse at all for not patching their games. I'd rather wait 2-3 weeks longer for a patch, than to have none at all.

Just had my best game ever, metro conquest 64, played as US support. grabbed my pkp, deployed bipod at the end of the double stair.. got 21 kills, in one spray, then I took an m320 to the face, raged. 5 seconds after, just when I respawn, the power cuts. ALL MY RAGE.

It's not that they aren't patching they just like to wait till they get a bunch done and release big patches, they blamed it on hickups with microsoft and sony on twitter at some point.

[QUOTE=Panimala;33975484][IMG]http://piclair.com/data/zor4c.jpg[/IMG] Color grading downtuned, better post anti aliasing, less visible vignette (black frame effect) and richer colors. I've uploaded the files if someone wants to try BF3 with my FXAA-settings. Disable the in-game post anti aliasing first though if you're using it. Throw everything in your main BF3 directory.

I think I remember reading on a forum that this doesn't interfere with the game's .exe, so Punkbuster has no problem with it.

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;33975293]I don't understand how some people have +20 on the Colonel ranks. Seriously, it takes so fucking long to rank up once in those ranks.[/QUOTE] I wonder too, ive spent 60 hour playing since the game came out, and i think i played a lot.

[QUOTE=ionuttzu;33980024]Is it okay to use it on servers that use Punkbuster? I think I remember reading on a forum that this doesn't interfere with the game's .exe, so Punkbuster has no problem with it.[/QUOTE] I've been playing around with settings for probably 4 hours in total, tabbing out and in and editing values like crazy without getting kicked. Adding 20 hours of playtime with the settings on I doubt I'm in risk of a ban. Also a DICE developer tweeted that people shouldn't be risking a ban. [img]http://piclair.com/data/3l112.jpg[/img]

If it were just a saturation/contrast adjustment I would use it but I don't like the FXAA.

[QUOTE=reevezy67;33980172]If it were just a saturation/contrast adjustment I would use it but I don't like the FXAA.[/QUOTE] Easy fix for that if you for some reason wouldn't like the FXAA. 1) Open up injFX_Settings.h In the beginning there's this: [img]http://piclair.com/data/t2vh8.jpg[/img] 2) Add "//" in front of anti aliasing as well as post- and pre sharpen and that should take care of it.

the Colonel eagle rank symbol looks terrible imo, wouldve preferred stars as per BC2/BF2.

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;33975293]I don't understand how some people have +20 on the Colonel ranks.

I'm lvl 15 Colonel, and I've played quite a lot.

So uh, Anyone have custom FXAA injector downloads up?

But admins, i just have no words. They kick those, who actually doing great on battlefield. I was playing Seine, score 12:1, killed a guy 4 times in a row, got slayed. Killed him 5th time, kicked. And i was kicked before, about a week ago several time, as well as my friend. ARGH, i hate this kind of people -.-

Ugh, I read this thread and start feeling like playing, I get in game, die a few times and get extremely mad. Fuck.

Unlocked everything for the Support class, including the B2K weapons, what class should I try to max out next?

[QUOTE=Gy.Gray;33981360]Unlocked everything for the Support class, including the B2K weapons, what class should I try to max out next?[/QUOTE] The recon class.

[QUOTE=Gy.Gray;33981360]Unlocked everything for the Support class, including the B2K weapons, what class should I try to max out next?[/QUOTE] Assault is pretty fun if you got a good squad to be with.

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;33981669]The recon class.[/QUOTE] I'm doing it. Slowly. Sniping is decent fun on HC servers but I won't pretend I don't feel bad about it.

[QUOTE=Daniellynet;33981669]The recon class.[/QUOTE] MAV 24/7 [QUOTE=booster;33981723]Assault is pretty fun if you got a good squad to be with.[/QUOTE] I was debating either Assault or Engineer, I'm halfway with Assault. But at the same time I want the G36C seeing that's the only gun that ever kills me from across the map.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;33981757]I'm doing it. Slowly. Sniping is decent fun on HC servers but I won't pretend I don't feel bad about it.[/QUOTE] Do what I did.. Either a. HC + MK11/EMBR(?) and kill everyone with one shot if you can aim. b. Simply fuck snipers and pick an all classes weapon.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;33981757]I'm doing it. Slowly. Sniping is decent fun on HC servers but I won't pretend I don't feel bad about it.[/QUOTE] I just use a PDW and MAV. I pushed an enemy sniper off the edge of a building and he was like laughing about it. But I didn't get a kill for it :\

[QUOTE=legolover122;33981803]I just use a PDW and MAV. I pushed an enemy sniper off the edge of a building and he was like laughing about it. But I didn't get a kill for it :\[/QUOTE] I find it funny that you can push people with the MAV, and 99% of the time they don't care/don't notice it.

PDWs are fun but recently I've mostly been annoying other snipers. See scope glint, flank them, go right behind them and shoot them in the head.
