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.

    • prices are insane its like 140 dollars more expensive, sigh
    • This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.
    • Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).
    • Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
