Seriously, what the hell? I can't even stand to play the final, the mouse feels horrific, jittery as hell and some kind if crazy mouse acceleration going on. Beta was fine :/

Have you played with any of the in game mouse settings? Might wanna try that. I have no issues with my controls at all (unlike the beta).

I've tried playing with them, didn't help at all. It has horrific amounts of negative mouse acceleration. Moving the mouse slowly makes me turn fast, and moving it fast is making me turn less. There's a massive thread on the battlelog forums about it, many have the problem.

the mouse movement in the beta was perfectly fine, why the **** did they even change it?

Disable raw mouse input... that's what I had to do. I don't understand it either, but I had this same problem in the beta as well. I posted about this too (a couple pages back) but no one has had any solution. The game runs flawlessly with the raw mouse input disabled (1920x1200, Ultra) but if I enable it the mouse movement gets all screwed up.

Also quick question for those eligible to answer it, is anyone running the game on a 5870? If so how is the performance?

My brother in law is making the jump back to PC gaming just for BF3, and he currently owns a 5870. He was asking me how it should run, and I told him from what I have heard so far it should be just fine, but would love to hear some actual feedback from people actually using a 5870. TIA, DL

i ran the beta on high @ 1920x1080 on my 5850 that's OC'ed. he should be more then fine.

That made it slightly better but didn't fix it. Raw input disabled lessens the negative acceleration but makes the mouse feel "floaty".

Hmm... disabling it fixed the "floaty" issue for me. I'll have to wait until I get home from work to troubleshoot it further.

EDIT: Ha, just noticed my post count :woot: .

You guys that have the mouse problem, are you using high resolution mice? If so, can you turn it down?

I'm running an 1800dpi deathadder. I'd rather not mess with my dpi because I have no problems in other games, and I'd have to re-adjust my sensitivity in all of them, but I'll give it a shot.

Making me mess up my 1,337 posts :(.

I'm using a Razer Mamba at 4000 dpi. Like Viper, I don't see why I should have to adjust it, that would be a pain re-adjusting for my other games. I guess I could create a profile if setting a low DPI fixes it. But I hate using a mouse with a dpi lower than 3000 on a monitor this size...

watch this. it'll give you more info

Thanks, just not really to much in to multiplayer. For one, dont know a lot of people on XBOX, in the same time zone, or on at the same time to take advantage of it. And I hate playing with random people as they turn out to be idiots most of hte time. Why I am looking forward to the next Assassins Creed, and Mass Effect.

that's fair. and this is definitely north worth buying for SP...

To continue my story below: My friend and I returned our respective copies of the standard edition of BF3 to EB Games. We then bought the limited edition at a local Future Shop. They had 8 copies of the X360 limited edition and 2 copies of the PS3 limited edition. We also received a code for the SPECACT skin as well as a steel case. We did, however, keep our physical warfare pack codes from EB Games. Well... we copied them before returning it, that is. :ninjapirate:

So, although I pre-ordered it a day before the release... I was only able to get the standard (non-limited edition) from a local EB Games store. However, I haven't opened the game yet and I plan on returning it as soon as I get my hands on the limited edition. My friend is in the same boat as me but we remain hopeful. I didn't expect EA to make a standard edition so early. :(

What issue in particular are you talking about?

The game will eventually just hang itself after a while of playing. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. When it does i have to alt tab and kill the process manually. Windows also does not see the program as "not responding" in the task manager, despite it being obviously dead, thus there's no event viewer info. Just like with the beta, this is the only game that has any issues at all. Everything else on my system is rock solid as always.

Indeed. It's why I didn't expect to receive the non-limited edition. I'm hoping it's an EB Games-only thing.

I might have missed this being answered, but I was at the midnight launch of GameStop last night, and the manager said that each store was given limited amounts of the Limited Editions. Even pre-orders weren't guaranteed a limited edition (Luckily I ordered mine in April). However all pre-orders still received the Physical Warfare Pack.

What video card are you using? I have a ATI 5850 and discovered while playing the beta that the drivers were not ramping up my fan as I played. Eventually everything would lock up because the video card was overheating. I have to manually go into the ATI control panel and set it to 60%, I then had no issues. On a side note I am not sure why this is happening but I do not think it is this games fault, this game is taxing my video card like no other but thats not BF3's fault.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
