How do you know they had the B2K stuff was ready at launch? Considering it wasn't on disc and was a seperate download that was released a few days before it was actually playable.

Either way, if you didn't pre order you had to buy it, so it's still considered dlc.

My BF3 name is Jamushroom :) I'm usually playing Conquest Large with 64 players and I avoid maps like Tehran Highway and Canals. Though I want to get into Rush again since I'm really missing that. I'm also going to try and play regular Conquest with 32 players. Also, I'm playing without a Mic so I usually add most players on Origin as well if there's a need for communication and I'm not in the same team/squad.

Also, did you mean Seine Crossing with SC? :p

Maybe, if you want to, I can suggest some servers.

Or, we can play together sometime.

Beware, I suck big time.

My ping is high.

And

My PC specs are low

Was playing this game yesterday (on the Xbox 360), after not having played it for a few weeks, and had to quit after 2 matches. I just couldn't handle the bull****.

In those 2 matches, I got killed by an MAV 4 times, and spawn killed 10 times. Also, over half of the players in the game were cheating, using MAV's to get to higher points of the map and snipe from there.

I think I'll just stick to Crysis 2 now...

BF3 has been crashing on me lately. I don't really know what the issue is. I only had time to play 1 game last night and it crashed on me. Same thing happened a few days ago as well. I'm thinking it might be the server, but I haven't had time to investigate. Anyone else with these issues?

Haha, playing with a high ping is useless :p Though you may always add me on Battlelog and recommend me some servers.

I have. It's terrible.

As terrible as bright red triangles, following every players every move? As terrible as auto regenerative health and auto vehicle repair? As terrible as warping out of your head to 3rd person views as if that little cloud ****er from Mario and Mario Cart was following you around? As terrible as your ability to write a defending arguement?

Tell us, how terrible is it?

Or do you just lack the ability to play and succeed in it, thus writing it off as "terrible", when in reality, it is you that is "terrible"?

Softcore is a handicap.

lol so mad

I didn't feel I had to explain myself because you didn't explain why we should play it in the first place. And still, after how maturely you responded I see no reason to even bother replying to you anymore after this.

Nice job with the personal attacks though.

Its actually kind of in the middle, but on the higher end. :(

There's no server with low pings for you to join?

Even though it's not high, I find that the sweet spot (for my connection at least) is around 50-60 ping. If it's substantially less, I get one hit killed way too often. Weird, but those seem to be my observations.

I usually play on servers with a ping below 30.

And the only game mode I like to play on hardcore is rush. I really dislike conquest in hardcore mode. I walk a bit on say, Caspian Border and PANG! shot by a recon. And that after the next couple of respawns without me being able to do something. This might be due to me not trying my best when I play conquest in hardcore mode, or not. I just rather play rush in HC mode than conquest.

To be fair, you did imply that HC is as a fact and no questions asked better than SC. Which it isn't. And then you implied that SC is only for those that can't play well enough thus claiming that HC players are more skilled. Which isn't true either.

But, really, arguing which mode one likes to play more? Seariously guys?

Guys, help me fill up the server. I have installed RUSH only 64 player mayhem server with GGC Stream, internal server ranking system and a few goodies. City carnage maps and I increased tickets 250%.

Had a few rubbish days, but went back to vanilla maps for a bit. Enjoying them a lot, all the idiots seem to be playing b2k.

Had a few great rounds. Went 38-9 with the MG36 on firestorm, and got combat efficiency and LMG medals to boot.

My SPM is slowly on the way up (after my first noob hours of about 50 PPM). If anybody fancies a game just add me on battleog, same name as here.

One way to spike SPM, is to go after the medals that are close and require least ribbons.

You getting what I'm saying?

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
