Anyone using Chrome here? I just gave it another try in hope to finally stick with it (still can't move to it from Firefox), and Battlelog doesn't work on it. Filter isn't usable at all.

Can't turn off/on the filters, ping the servers and do anything at all in the multiplayer section. Any solution to that, or should I forget about trying to move to Chrome and just stick with Firefox?

I have similar issues in pretty much every single browser. Hitting the browser reload button makes it work but it's really annoying to have to do it that way. I have a feeling it's a problem on my end though and not a problem with any specific browser.

I primarily use Firefox but Battlelog works just fine in Chrome. In fact in the beginning it worked better than Fx because it actually displayed ping.

What version of Chrome? Installed 15.0.874.106 m and I can't do anything in server browser.

To actually join the server and see its ping, I need to click on the server name to get into its page.

Still works without any problems in Firefox 7.0.1, as before.

I'm enjoying the MP very much (PS3) but two complaints: tactical flashlights and people who don't drop ammo or health, even after telling them to drop.

Could be they don't know...my brother had been playing BF:BC2 for over 3 months and didn't know he could drop ammo until he saw me do it and asked how long before he could unlock that skill. Needless to say; that made me laugh.

The Back to Karkand footage looks amazing. I wonder what they mean be "extended persistence". As for the "enhanced destruction", it looks like they've increased the level of destruction for the upcoming maps.

For the expansion do I need to do anything else to get it? When I went to the midnight launch as soon as I got home I got on live and clicked "redeem code" I entered the Code on my receipt, then I also entered the code that was in the battlefield box.

You're entitled to it if you have the limited edition. It'll say so on the box. If not, then you'll have to pay $10 if you want it.

Using version 15.0.874.106. A screenshot of it working fine (never mind the high ping, other programs were hogging the bandwidth):

"Extended persistence" most probably just means more medals, ribbons and achievements.

I wanted to make a petition to DICE to ask if it's atleast possible to do some sort of cross platform gameplay, (I know you can add other platforms' players on battlelog) in the sense of 24 player team death match or conquest... since all my friends have the PS3 version... :(

You guys think its possible for DICE or will MS and Sony even allow this?

It will increase the player base...

I wanted to prove to my friends that I am better than them since they keep saying PCs suck and things.

IRNV sucks. Seriously.

I've tried to use it a couple of times and it literally sucks. With AEK 971

...I use it with the AEK, and it is somewhat OP in my hands, especially at long range. Or well, I think it is actually perfect. Have over 700 kills with the AEK, 600 all with the IRNV. I love it.

I just finished the single player on hard. It's terrible. If I had to rate the game on single player alone it would be 1 out of 10. The plot is okay..I guess. And it's not that it's hard. It just takes dieing repeatedly to learn where the baddies are because there is no way you can make it through the game without dieing. And even then, they have wallhacks because they can shoot you behind cover. It's irritating and a whole lot of not fun.

    • Microsoft releases PowerToys v0.100.1, fixes a bug that made remapped keys misbehave

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft releases PowerToys v0.100.1, fixes a bug that made remapped keys misbehave by Ivan Jenic Microsoft just released PowerToys v0.100.1, a patch update that addresses several stability and behavior issues found in v0.100.0. The v0.100.0 patch was a significant update for PowerToys, as it introduced all sorts of new features and additions, such as a rebuilt Shortcut Guide, a Command Palette Extension Gallery, webcam overlay support in ZoomIt, and more. However, the v0.100.0 version also introduced some bugs and stability issues. And now, Microsoft is addressing these issues in the new patch. The most impactful fix in this release perhaps is in Keyboard Manager, where remapped modifier keys were being delivered as system-key events, causing unexpected behavior in apps. The clearest example of this was Alt-to-Backspace remaps, deleting whole words instead of a single character. So, if you thought there was an issue with your keyboard, Microsoft just confirmed that it was PowerToys. Beyond the Keyboard Manager fix, v0.100.1 also addresses several other issues. It fixes a bug with Power Display that was preventing monitors from waking from standby correctly. Additionally, the new update patches Quick Access crashes on launch, and resolves a Shortcut Guide crash that occurred when switching between sidebar sections. Here’s the full changelog: Color Picker Fixed a bug where the main Color Picker window could appear inside the zoomed-in picker view Command Palette Fixed Run history initialization in AOT builds Fixed a bug where the Performance Monitor dock item could show ??? after restart Fixed the Hibernate command using the Sleep icon Limited the "pin to dock" dialog to displays where the dock is enabled Keyboard Manager Fixed modifier keys remapped to non-modifier keys being delivered as system-key events, which caused unexpected behavior in apps such as Alt-to-Backspace deleting whole words Power Display Fixed a bug where selecting On in the monitor power-state control did not wake a monitor from standby Fixed built-in display detection and brightness control on dual-GPU laptops where the internal panel is driven by the discrete GPU PowerToys Run Fixed VS Code Workspaces discovery after VS Code moved recently opened workspace data to shared storage Quick Access Fixed Quick Access flyout crashes caused by unhandled XAML exceptions during launch or page navigation Shortcut Guide Fixed a crash when navigating between Shortcut Guide sidebar sections Fixed number-key rendering in shortcut manifests and added a Postman shortcut manifest Updated bundled shortcut manifests to use the literal number-key token so number keys render correctly across apps ZoomIt Fixed a race condition in audio initialization for ZoomIt video recording You can download PowerToys v0.100.1 from the official GitHub releases page.

    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.
