Battlefield 3 Beta

So like, I read somewhere that when you upgrade to retail, you lose your soldier and have to start over...

Is this true?

You can't be serious? Beta's never carry over game progress. This is why I'm trying not to play the beta too much, just quick matches here and there.

Yup it's really fun and there's still another six days of fun to be had. I played a really fun couple of matches a few minutes ago, I really cant wait for the full release.

Maybe they unlock the Caspian Border map this week, that would be a good reason to jam some more. :)
 
Wow. Taking off work for a game... I am not even angry but impressed.

I must be seeing things, because my battlelog browser shows that iGame Maverick is hosting Caspian Border. In fact I've just tried connecting, and it worked. I assume no-one else knows because there's no-one on the server.

Maverick doesn't show up in the normal server browser for me anymore, but I was able to view the server from my favorites tab, where I had favorited all the iGame servers and it definitely shows Caspian Border. Like I said, I connected (and spawned into a jet), but was unable to do anything because the server requires a minimum of 8 people to exit the locked state.

:confused:
 
There have been games running on Maverick all day long, you just connected after an End Of Round Crash (Which the servers still do)
 
LOL. I see that now.

Checked again, and - lo and behold! - bunch of people playing. Awesome. *Rubs hands in anticipation*

But wait - what's that you say?
End Of Round Crash?



Bollocks. . .

No matter. Who needs the end of the round? At least we still have the rest!
Rock on! And thanks for explaining Xero.
 
Played on iGame Maverick yesterday, no lag at all. Bunch of us SS guys tore into that map. Densweep's driving makes me scared.
 
I actually hit someone at a distance of what must be 1.5 - 2 kilometres. From the one corner of the map to the other. SV98 fitted with a 12x scope. No kills, but it was damn fun seeing people run around and panic as my shots landed close to them.

I could have sworn I saw one bullet strike a perfect headshot though. There was this pink mist effect coming from his head, but I didn't get a hit indicator. Probably didn't register. Damn those huge, beautiful maps.
 
I must commend the iGame chaps, there servers are the only ones running Caspian border without lag.

Like i said on the servers' chat: If one server is lag-free then the only explanation is that it is server-side lag.

Either they aren't providing enough bandwidth or their QoS is up to some crazies or their servers just aren't powerful enough but it drives me crazy.
