Since most are having issues
Please list any fixes you come across so everyone can have a great experience.

Edit....

Here is a fix I found for the suttering in MP at also helps with SP but not a lot
Its much like the issues we had on BC2




First, download PBSetup from here: http://battlelog-cdn.battlefield.com/public/pbsetup.exe [battlelog-cdn.battlefield.com]
When you start PBSetup, you will be presented with EvenBalance's license agreement. Accept the agreement to proceed.
The utility will then download information about the latest PunkBuster version for BF3. Once this is complete, you are presented with a list of the PunkBuster-enabled games that are present on your systems.

If Battlefield 3 is not in that list, you can add it:
- Click on "Add a Game"
- In the topmost dropdown box, choose "Battlefield 3"
- Click on "Add Game"
- You should now have Battlefield 3 in the list of PunkBuster-enabled games.

Finally update the PunkBuster DLLs. Click on Battlefield 3, and choose "Check for Updates". PBsetup will check if the DLLs are up-to-date; if not, the latest DLLs will be downloaded and installed. .
At this point PunkBuster is fully up to date and configured for Battlefield 3.
 
I actually had issues running with my Eyefinity.

Single Player was fine. Multi was blergh... Will update and see if it helps
 
These long load times are killing me! The beta ran fine, loaded a map in 10-30 seconds, now it takes about 3+ minutes to load a map. Any idea what might be the cause?

OK if your experiencing stuttering or lagging in game here is a BLOPs fix that works , >taskmanger >processes >BF3 > set priority high

Been playing for 2 hours or so , no problems what so ever , Nividia users please note there is something screwy with the drivers and they seem to chew up VRam . I used the Beta drivers it still gives that Green flash it had in the beta but hey at least for now you can play.

Load times yeah way too long .

Whats your pc specs?
 
yeah also thought the load times were a bit longer, but then again the BETA didn't have as much 'data' to load and I think it is rig dependant as well.
 
Whats your pc specs?

Amd 6x core, 5850 4gb RAM, shouldn't be an issue though. done some googling and extreme load times seems to be a common issue in the retail version.

Yes this is true it seems to stem from the game loading all the wireframe's , which is also why there has been cpu spikes and memory hogging.
 
I would like to see a fix for the Tanks
I was horse on Saturday from swearing, yes I admit that I have a temper issue when it comes to tanks not doing splash damage against infantry

On a side note, by show of hands, who haven't I killed yet?
I know I met Kuga loads of times, and some of the others on here as well, Stonecold etc
Anyone I missed :)

Only fix I need is a SSD so that the game can load faster!

BC2 had similar problems before they fixed it. So it should hopefully get sorted out soon.
