=/ Damnit.. Think I may pass then. I love BF3, but I hardly play anymore because of the hassle just to get in a game. I just wanna start up, find a server and go (like Counter-Strike), but battlelog means at least 4-5 minutes before I can get anything going, and for some reason, that is enough time to talk me out of wanting to play.

Kinda agree. Kinda not.

I don't hate Battlelog, but don't love it either. As much as I liked it at first, I began to feel, the experience is somewhat slowing it down.

Nonetheless, it is a great thing to have. With all your stats and friends in one place. A more streamlined experience, at least for me. I like this aspect of it.

Ain't gonna pass on this one though. I liked the 2010' and I have high hopes for this one too.

I just finished single player ..

5 hours on normal..

Almost made me cry in the end because these soldiers and missions are based on real life. They are all real people.

What a ride.. it was overall a great experience.. personally I think it was better than the first. Quite a bit better.

Very emotional.

Really? The very first mission (with the containers and the boat) was based on what real life mission? Anyone has some more info?

Not sure if all of them are.. I think on the mission that's based on real life it says while it's loading the screen..

Soldiers from MOH are actual soldiers though.. they just gave them different pseudonyms. Voodoo, Preacher, Mother, Rabbit etc they are all based on real soldiers..

Rabbit in MOH 2010 was based on real life Petty Officer 1st Class Neil Roberts (callsign - Fifi). He took part in Operation ANACONDA and was thrown from his Chinook when it came under RPG fire. He was captured and executed before Army Rangers and fellow Navy SEALs could rescue him. Also, the Rangers sent to rescue Rabbit were also the QRF. Both of them also died on Takur Ghar (later named Roberts' Ridge).

He is called "Rabbit" because he has six children.

Thus, the ending in MOH 2010.

I bought this game 3 days ago on Origin for $25. If you own Battlefield 3, the game is 50% off. The only downside is that it is a digital download. A whopping 17GB. It has been downloading for me for the past 3 days at 200kb/s. It's not my internet either cause Blizzard yesterday was downloading at 1.25Mb/s... so its definetly on EA servers. It is still going as we speak. 90% there.

I've never had any download speed issues with Origin. I found it to be consistently faster than Steam (which fluctuates between 0.5 - 2 MB/s).

Yeah well, I am still waiting on EA to get back to me about my botched 50% off the PC version for being a BF3 Premium member. Not happy at all, in fact, I may be skipping it entirely now just on premise alone. You would think they would want some money rather than no money, but apparently, that is not the case.

Single Player campaign 5 hours? :cry:

I lol'ed

But seriously, you should try contacting them again. That appears to be really frustrating.

I have contacted them 3 times in the past 36 hours, without even so much as an acknowledgment that I have done so. I also have 2 open cases, one from the customer representative I first talked to, one that I opened on my own. Not really sure what else I can do.

It turns out the game was on my Gamefly Queue for the PS3 and I never removed it, so it was shipped yesterday. I guess I will just play it on the PS3 and send it back. Would have preferred to play it on the PC, by far actually, but that appears as if it is not going to happen. I am definitely not paying full price for it, and as I said, really do not even believe I should purchase it now even at 50% off. As I said, it is the premise of the whole situation at this point. Hell, if I was not looking forward to Need For Speed as much as I am, I would possibly even consider boycotting EA for a few months. However, I want to play NFS.

In case anyone is interested in hearing just how it went down and how my 50% code is no longer valid, I went off on a little rant on the podcast we just recorded earlier tonight. :laugh:

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By ShadeOfBlue · Posted

      There is a default resolution setting in Settings > Display that can be changed with a click. You can also change the settings on a per-game basis. No CLI needed. Also, Steam has countless games that are not "[perpetual] alpha/beta games", so no need for the straw man. Plus you can use other stores as well. And console games (e.g. PS5) cost a fortune, which itself more than negates the price subsidy on the system, unless you plan on exclusively playing 1 or 2 games. It's true that you shouldn't buy a system that doesn't support the game(s) you want to play, but I think that's kinda obvious, and applies to every console as well as PC. I don't game in the living room and have no need of a Steam Machine, but there is a clear market segment that would find it useful.

RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
