Battlefield 3

Is anyone's game taking longer to launch and load the maps today?
My game took about 30-40sec, today it takes about 1m30.

Mine has been taking a lot longer to load now, yes.
Not to mention getting kicked off the servers after scoring a decent amount of points.

 

[iNNOS4iNT]

thanks man, lets see if it worked

You're welcome, buddy.

think it may have just been the server, but my load time between maps actually got faster. a hell of a lot.

had some terrible games yesterday being mortar'd to hell and back.

look don't mind it, but it was being done on our main spawn (playing RUSH) plus then you get the guys that sit and watch your main spawn points. got pretty p'd off and then you find we have a mortar guy on our team who can actually take out their guy, but getting him to spawn is the problem.

Jeez, all the servers you guys were on was full! Had to settle for some noob matches, got a kill streak of 12 (!!!) on one map.
But alas, I lost connection alot and gave up just before 1.
Now, let's try to stay awake again during the day... my boss love my natural blue-under-eye rings.

Man 2 nights in a row i just felt like uninstalling the game after the 3rd lost connection. Its not nice if your top on points and on a 15 killstreak and it losts connection twice.

Ouch, big BF3 hack exposed http://bf3nation.com/2011/10/battlefield-3-client-side-vulnerabilities-leave-hackers-rejoicing/.

I should watch it. I like throwing C4 while waiting for the game to start, I normally pick it up again.

Yeah dude, I had a lot of fun last night. Near the end of the night. Earlier not so much.

http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/news/ they did a server update fixing the crashes at the map rotations. Makes me very happy to know I can play the game without having to restart the game every second round.

Is there any way to decrease the size of the chat window in-game, cos when I ADS, nearly half the screen is taken up by that chatscreen.

Good question. Investigate and let us know too plz?

I guess it depends on resolution, takes up very little space on my screen.

I'm running 1360x768. I feel the pain.

Good Q. Lets see what Google brings up.

I absolutely hate the chat interface, half of the time I don't see when people are typing something unless I'm standing still but when does that ever happen! Not a train smash they must just get in game VoIP.

 

[iNNOS4iNT]

How many of you use headphones while playing? Or surround sound HPs or Speakers?

Agree with you 100% why is there ingame voip for console's and none for pc the supposedly primary developed platform?

@ Saint of Chernobyl I use headphones most of the time

Headphones if I'm using a mic, otherwise Surround sound.

 

[Tsar]

Surround sound and headphones(when its late at night)
