Is there anyway to have the in game FPS display at all times? Every time I go into the game I have to retype 'render.drawfps 1'

Yes there is.

  1. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 3 (or C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 3)
  2. Create a file called user.cfg
  3. Open it, and in there type Render.DrawFPS 1
  4. Save it
  5. ???
  6. Profit!

In some of the videos I was watching yesterday, there were console keys

And another big indicator is that the hud for the game looks totally different (smaller) on the consoles versions because of the lower resolution. Not to say that it can't be that way on the pc either, but yeah..

Then I must be....

Sorry.

lol it's not a problem, I was just curious why you thought it was on a console and why that would matter.

And maybe he was just using a controller in vehicles? Apparently the pc version of bf3 has support for xbox 360 controllers out of the box but I haven't tried it.

I was saying with respect to this video

I did, but then why was it saying, ENEMY DOWN instead of ENEMY KILLED.

And the names of the ribbons, their titles, were also under the ribbons, not above them, which I thought was a console thing

lol again? How are they going to nerf it this time I wonder.

They are gonna go ahead and nerf it to the level where a whole clip would take to kill an enemy :(

It's from the beta, note the date, chat box, etc.

Good, the usas with frag rounds is just to easy to get kills with even after it's last nerf, especially at longer ranges.

Also according to this link:

We're going to start hearing about future BF3 dlc this next week.

^What I'd like to add to that is this:

In a dual commentary with DCRUColin, TheAustrianToast revealed, ?I have a source telling me that there will be an all American DLC.? He added that these maps would be based on locations like ?New York City, Miami, New Jearsey, and I think it was San Francisco.?
On top of Battlefield 2143 rumors, DICE also considered the idea of a snow-themed expansion, something many Battlefield 3 fans have been craving since Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

Source: Battlefield 3 DLC Rumor ? All American Map Pack

Even though it's a rumour, it should be pretty awesome if they added such maps. Though the I'd really like to see those show maps with weather effects. Really missing those snow maps from BC2. And also, they don't like the idea of map packs but rather expansion packs as said in that article. Which is awesome because that would mean that each DLC would add loads of stuff to the game.

Yeah, like Vietnam for bc2 which was awesome. As long as we can play them with the older maps I'm all for that.

^I hope so too :)

Of course we can as they've already release such an expansion pack for Battlefield 3 which is "Back To Karkand". Back To Karkand is the way that they want to do expansions.

good news on the DLC, thanks for posting! with my addiction to this game, it will be good, though i will stop when i get to level 45, enough is enough!

BTW are DICE going to fix the drone kill thing? those are really ****ing annoying! some people just use them to ram others for cheap kills and it's so idiotic.

Yeah, it's irritating and needs to be fixed. It should take 20-25% damage each time it kills a person. Either that or only allow one per life, can't be refilled by ammo boxes.

    • Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
    • How do you connect 5.1 Speakers to this thing?
    • I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
    • I'd basically agree. The only point I would add is to be careful not to treat science as a religion, complete with priests, dogma, and blasphemy. Humans are highly susceptible to religious-oriented ways of thinking since it aids in forming communities of like-minded people. The problem is that when this happens, nobody wants to be ostracized from the group by saying that a deeply-held idea is wrong. Science and "peer review" are not immune to this behavior, unfortunately. In the end, finding truth is our own responsibility and we can't depend on others to hand it to us. Skepticism is key, along with curiosity and the willingness to critically evaluate and consider ideas both new and old.
