Battlefield 3 PC discussion thread MK II

Invite me to a co-op game when u want to start.

Thanks for the offer DC, but I didn't know my Battlelog CO-OP Matchmaking would work. Besides, I was playing with a guys that were seemingly noobs.... :p

Edit: I do regret, and wished I'd played alongside you instead.
 
Need some help.

Got a new HDD (SSD :p ) and I have made my old HDD "D:\"

I have left everything as is, and have setup origin on the new setup to use the same dirs as before, and for the main games in Origin it works, no re-download needed.

However, it wants to re-download every piece of DLC, eventhough I can see the dlc data in the BF3 folder.

Anything else I need to edit somewhere? Really do not want to do re-download all dlc (Close Quarters included) again.

wouldn't you have to do the trick of don't copy the old files over yet and let it start the DLC download, pause it, then copy over and it will "download in seconds" ?

i have only done it once and it was a while ago so can't really remember sorry :(
 
think of the DLC as a separate game, you need to do the same thing with them as u did the game

Thanks. Do you perhaps know where the files for the DLC would be located so I can copy it?
In the BF3 directory is looks like it is installed (same hdd so it must be), yet the newly installed Origin is not 'seeing' the DLC bits, only the main game.

I just made my C my D and edited the paths in the newly installed Origin client to now point to D:\program files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 3 (default path).

eish, i would have to check when i get home, i'll try follow up this weekend
 
I'm looking to join a clannie... Anyone recruiting?

RFH is recruiting since we are starting a 3rd team though you need to meet the requirements.

BlackLegion(our pro players),DeathGuard(our good players that still need to improve),Unknown team(we still need to name it but all the new players will go in there)

You won't have to play DGL right away so just focus on improving your skill: http://www.rebelsfromhell.co.za/

We usually play against BlackLegion to improve our teamwork and skill and you don't have to worry about base raping since it's unbalanced.

Thanks. I'll check it out. I'm not a noob, nor'm I a pro... Somewhere in between ... :)
 
gg bud,looks like you are getting the hang of the G3A3.

Thanks. It's easy kills with this gun.. If you know how to use it.
Barely had it 2 days and already ...

Cool,kills damn easy on hardcore.You can try tap firing it on full auto for longer ranges,it can Manuel single shot fire because of the slow ROF.
 
Which is better? With or without Foregrip?

Never put foregrip on any long range AR,the G3A3 doesn't need a foregrip since it's recoil goes straight up.The foregip reduces side to side recoil at the cost of more ADS spread.

I run Kobra - under slung rail -Flash Suppressor

Kobra gives you more field of view while the FSup gives you a decrease in recoil,the Fsup only has a penalty for hip fire and you shouldn't put yourself in a position where you have to hip fire with the G3A3.

The G3A3 has a few hit reg issues with the heavy barrel so i never use it.

Thank you very much for this info. Appreciate it.
 
I cashed in on 2xp this weekend, managing to level like 7 times (I think) but I'm still so noob. I need to change my CoD rambo mindset and play conservatively and calculated. I always end up dying and it's reflecting really badly in my K/D.
