=/ 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:

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

      The memory and nvme can be swapped and upgraded with standard parts. But the GPU cannot, which is the weakest part of the box. It's a dead product at these prices.

      Sounds like the debloated build you are running is missing some components that the Photos app and Snipping Tool rely on.

    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack

      Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
