official Battlefield 3

Nope, they're working just fine for me. It has push to talk and hands-free mode. Tried it with a friend, it's just a little tricky to get to the settings. The settings automatically save, so no need to push a save button or anything like that.

Cool thanks. I will just try them out then. (Y)

I tried the voice communication yesterday with a friend. It did not work. Is it originally configure as push to talk ? I did not see the options ...

Really hating games where you join on the losing team right as the game is about to end... I'm getting a LOT of those =/

That happened to me twice last night. Litterally, load game and boom, fail screen appears. I didn't even get to spawn in, or choose a kit. Twice in a row. My ****ing luck.

So has anyone used the tugs and gotten surveilance ribbons? I'm off the opinion that it is utterally and completely useless and 100% broken.

Nope, but I haven't used it much. But I can now officially agree with what you said a few days ago - radio beacon sure is nerfed a bit too much because it's just so damn noticeable. Not only it is louder than in the beta, but it's huge and has a light attached. IMO one of those things has to go.

Completed the campaign today on PS3, i enjoyed it but i thought the whole thing was extremely unchallenging... after completing i felt like i'd just watched a film. It's the first campaign i've attempted in about 10 year so i don't know if thats the norm but it felt like there was way i could lose, there is little margin for error.. you follow the blue sign and shoot when you see an enemy. Maybe i'm just playing the wrong genre of game? i have nothing to compare it to.

Is there nothing like resident evil these days? with lots of room for error and thinking?

Yes it is, the options are at the right bottom corner. Click on COM Center, it's TINY TINY gear icon once you're in a party.

tugs?

[MillionVoltss]

Thats what im getting, is annoying.

tugs?

The 'Tactical Unattended Ground Sensor' or T-UGS for short, it's a motion sensor that Recon gets, it warns you with a sound when enemies are moving nearby and makes them appear on radar for a short while. It's apparently bugged though at the moment and has been since beta, lots of people are complaining about it.

Though it won't detect anyone who is either prone or moving while crouched just the same as claymores won't blow up if they do the same thing.

... crouched just the same as claymores won't blow up if they do the same thing.

I thought that was by design? One of the tips that came up said you can get by claymores by going prone.

:s it's like your video card is overheating...

That was what I meant yes. :D I was just pointing out that drawback and that you wouldn't be able to completely rely on it watching your back. :shiftyninja:

[MillionVoltss]

Some nice common solutions.

I don't know what it is, but for the last day or so Battlelog is not loading pages as I should. I click on a link, and it says it's Loading Stats, or whatever, but doesn't show anything. And then if i refresh the browser it does. Very odd. It makes getting into a server tough. :wacko:

Oh man thats horrible, graphics card is either A. Dying or B. Overheating. My old card did that and I had to replace it, was running way to hot.

[AimLXJ]

I was getting something similar to that except it was just one black line. I fixed it by underclocking my video card a bit, but every other game seems to run fine with my overclock settings (everything is under 60c).

[Reacon]

Is anyone else having sensitivity problems when in vehicles where the vision is unhindered (you know, like how the tank can only swivel its turret so fast). On the mounted gun atop the tank, I find it impossible to aim right, because everything is so touchy compared to ground. On ground, I also have negative mouse accel problems, but I hear they're working on it.

[:: Lyon ::]

I just got that black polygons last night.. I'm sure it's not because of my video card because it runs fine if I switch to pistol or something like that :| maybe it's a glitch in the game (hopefully)

[Depicus]

Exactly the same situation here and now I feel like an absolute idiot for even bothering to pre order.

Words cannot describe the amount of hate I have for the Royal Mail, the other day I caught a postie just outside seconds after he left a "sorry you were out card" and when I asked him to give me my item as I was obviously not out, he confessed to not having even brought it with him essentially hoping I would do his god damn job for him. RAGE!!!!

That sucks, got mine from Amazon a day early but we have a good postie

Probably isn't even the postie, if the stuff gets to his frame(ie desk) it should go out that day. (Although the "modernisation" to cut costs is causing problems everywhere).

I'm almost regretting buying it :/ Can't even join a game now FFS! ?43!

Bring on MW3.

[Alladaskill17]

Xbox 360: why are my friends and I not in the same squad, much less the same team when we join up in party and squad prior to entering matchmaking??

[Green_Eye]

That sucks, got mine from Amazon a day early but we have a good postie

Well im glad one of us got the bloody game :laugh: I mean Battlefield is my game, I would have not given a rats arse about any other game being delayed but I live for BF :p It better be here bright and early tommorow morning or I am going to be wearing some skulls as fashion accessories!
