[QUOTE=wutanggrenad;34161838]Once you learn how to fly helicopters well, man you can be devastating with them.
Was playing rush attacking on caspian, had two guys on miniguns, and two guys hanging out with RPG's. I just circled around slowly and got about 15 assists in 3 minutes.
Should've been shot down, but one guy had a fire extinguisher (or was an engie).
When you get a good team, this game kicks ass.[/QUOTE]
I have trouble with it on some maps. For some reason, I can't heli pilot worth shit on Kharg. It's just very easy to shoot down by a jet pilot, even though some heli pilots still decimate. There is hardly any low flying cover except in the direct middle.
It doesn't help though that for some reason, 90% of games I join have the enemy team using a pair of dedicated jet players who have done nothing but jets their entire time playing BF3, have all the uber unlocks and also manage to somehow kill me in 2 seconds with their chaingun, as if 100% of their bullets are accurate.
I'm still trying to figure that one out.
Not only has the crashing and freezing returned, but now:

Really? That has never worked for me. I can see the c4 clearly, but no "Press R to pick up." pops up, no matter where i stand. :C
Maybe i'm just unlucky.
[QUOTE=Mr. Agree;34159400]Yeah, temperatures not even high, case feels cold.. some people were saying increase the voltage slightly but i'm reluctant to do that as I have no idea what i'm doing in that area.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I tried that. No difference.

It only happens after playing BF3 if it happens. Otherwise it's in the shape of Systemfreezes and crashing during play.
Is it DICE or Nvidia?

I honestly think it's both. Some compatibility issues between the two. Nvidia could have done all they could on their end with the newest beta drivers for all I know and maybe Dice will take care of the rest in the patch next month.

Take off AA. Seemed to be more stable, put mesh to high, texture high (maybe ultra, can try) and everything else Ultra, OA at SSAO. Only crash i've had since was when my exe crashed.
Also, update punkbuster for BF3 if you can. This should be fine, or you can check out nvidia's latest beta driver.

Yeah, I have everything set to high, all AA off and SSAO on. And I have 290.53. Like I said, it doesn't crash near as much, but still does at times.
Just tried updating PB. No different.
[QUOTE=Azaz3l;34160035]Yeah , where I can get a hardware id of my card though?[/QUOTE]
Anybody?
I will whats your name on bf. Mav that is.
What the hell, I don't have my dr pepper camo anymore.
All case fans blowing inwards. Who the fuck built my rig? He sure had his ass up his hea- oh wait. The fuck was i on?
I just spent half an hour fixing that....

Then suddenly: All temps dropped 20 degrees Celsius.
Rear case fans blowing [B]out[/B]wards is normal, isn't it
[QUOTE=qwerty000;34164319]Rear case fans blowing [B]out[/B]wards is normal, isn't it[/QUOTE]
It is.
Usually the back and top fans are exhaust.
[QUOTE=qwerty000;34164319]Rear case fans blowing [B]out[/B]wards is normal, isn't it[/QUOTE]
If you have only one case fan I'd rather have it blow inwards. If you have more you need to direct the airflow in one direction, like front fan inwards back fan out.

Top is probably the best place for the outwards fans.
[QUOTE=teslacoil;34163449]Who's up for squading up and doing this on Metro HC right now?[/QUOTE]
Shame it's pretty much useless considering the fact that it's impossable to get any action going on that part of the map 90% of the time due to terrible map design
Except for the part where he's under the map
[editline]11th January 2012[/editline]
Doesn't really work on HC from what I've tried, because you take a massive amount of damage from the fall that you can't recover from, and you need to take 2 large falls to survive it. And for some reason my spawn beacon wouldn't work outside the map preventing me from spawning from it. Maybe it was because I wasn't in a squad though (really stupid to do this if you are in a public squad unless you want people to rat on you).
EDIT2: Managed to get it to work. Land, place mobile spawn, die, join squad, spawn on becon, leave squad through the esc menu (so they don't spawn on you), land

So can you do anything interesting to fuck with people? Not kill them, just make random things blow up or something like that.

Flying jets in bf3 is stupid easy if you have played any il-2 or whatever. The chaingun is so stupidly overpowered that you can take down infantry with a single bullet aimed correctly. The "uber" unlocks aren't worth shit really although I am in love with the guided missile for taking out jeeps :v: Still, apparently nobody's any good at aiming with the thing so it needs to be as powerful as it is. I find that the helicopters can easily hold their own against jets in the right hands though, especially if you time the launch of AA missiles correctly.
One thing to note in the helicopters is that there's a few different "zones" to be aware of: The enemy AA vehicles, what I call "jet height", and enemy anti air personnel. Once you have below radar unlocked there's a height you can whizz about at and be impervious to pretty much anything. As soon as I hear the lock sound I know it's either infantry or an AA tank so I head for whatever cover is available (usually trees) which breaks the lock and gives you time to escape. As a pilot you should be focusing on staying alive instead of kills, which nobody seems to get when I'm gunning for them :(

Anyone else always crashing as soon as the round ends and goes to the results screen? I'm glad I keep my score but it's annoying.

If you're underground, you can shoot people that are prone.

Here's what I don't get - I managed to get up there finally but the entire map is covered with invisible walls that block bullet fire or anything - so Its impossible to get kills when you are under/below the map, as your rounds just hit the invisible walls. Basically its pretty useless except to secretly back-cap A, or get an assload of motion sensor assits from the MAV
EDIT: I Just realized that he wasn't killing anyone either

Basically, DICE did the one thing that very few game developers actually do, and stuck invisible walls where they [B]should be[/B], to stop map exploits from having any profit.
ROFL an admin went into a hissy fit because I played chicken with him and went head on in my plane, none of us chickened out and the planes just crashed.
Then he goes RAMMER NOOB and BB FROM SERVER. Oh wow, his fault as much as mine for not moving out of the way..
Wish some admins would just grow up and have some fun for once, was on this server [url]http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/servers/show/c5aa4076-a79b-4072-8e91-fba9f8eaac8f/Noobserver-by-4netplayers-de-1player-start/[/url]
