The server are unstable, for some reason or it just bugs.

I sink in so far once till i cant even see the sky.

Glitchy game is glitchy.

I even seen other soldiers arms got moved somehow to the ass which made them look like some horrible squid. doh.gif

It's twice worse for PS3. Was trying out my bro's ps3 and almost everything glitches, the guns warp and almost constant clipping. Compounded by the low fps cap. I was feeling neusea after few rounds. I let my bro play on the pc and he was wtf, this is night and day.

I must be the only one not minding much of battlelog. It's not exactly polished just yet but I think tech wise, we're gonna be seeing a lot of similar implementations. Desktop/browser intergrated with game menu should at least, in theory allows better seamless game management and ui interaction. It would be better if it was designed something like a windows gadget, but i suppose a browser intergration is a more cross platform friendly.

how to join the caspian border server with password protected
saw someone posted this on a forum, not sure if it works
here enjoy
Use Google Chrome as your default browser.
Start BF battlelog server browser.

Hit SHIFT+CRTL+J

copy and then paste:
launcher.verifyPassword = function(game, gameServerGuid, plaintextPassword, callback) { callback(true); }.

press enter

select server – don’t enter a password – i.e. leave password field blank -

go play! without the need for any password.

Lets hope they improve Battlelog.

I start to see the point of having Battlelog. It is meant to remove the time of loading the main menu and then, wait for server browser to load then only get into the game. Anyone played any previous Battlefield will know how much fail is DICE's main menu design. The server browser sucks, especially BF2's one as its so slow. Using Battlelog does cut down the time by a lot. It is also nice that i can spam LYN when waiting to get into a server.

On the other hand, it still feels weird to start a browser to play a game.

Yeah there's defo room for improvement. It would be great if we could even sort out squad selection in battlelog itself, just think how easy it would be to be able chat around and find mates to play with via msn, lyn, facebook etc.

It says Dx11 on my MSI Afterburner. But i think not all DX11 features are enabled. I haven't noticed any tessellation.

Err there will be Squad management.

Daniel Matros @ zh1nt0:

Voice chat and squadding will be on the battlelog side of things.

There is a queue system in place, i was trying to join some random server the other day and the plugin says "In Queue" or something like that.

Maybe Everdying can confirm.

The first phase of the map would be a lot different had they not removed the LAV. That dumbshit island would be easily pummeled to death.

just because the game is full of bugs dosent mean i need to cancel my pre-order...what happen to support those pc game company? imo they did a good job with the frostbite 2 engine...its not easy to make something like that...plus there isnt any other games out there that is worth my money compare to bf3...

might as well support DICE....with that support at least they can use that money & try to work harder to patch up all those bugs etc....i m sure it will take time to make it perfect since they used the new engine surely there will be issues & bugs etc...plus i like origin better than steam...i believe ea did a good job on that even tho its still full with bugs...

only thing i hate is battlelog...but i guess we cant blame them for trying something new...i know they are trying to make it like facebook...a social site that manages your game plus u can comment bla bla bla...nowdays everything is social...so cnt blame them for trying a new concept huh?

This post is full of win. Once upon a time, we were all praising Dice for innovating and pushing the boundary of the genre when every other developers kept milking the same old shit. One Beta later, we're now contemplating to cancel our preorders and what not. Dice is trying new things. It's trying to innovate the fps genre and maybe even the entire industry. And like all new things, they've bound to meet certain instabilities and inconsistencies. What they need is time and our feedback. Personally, I had some good fun in the beta. More bugs than i expected but bugs can be fixed and shit map can be replaced. I was most concern with the general look and feel of the game and overall i'm quite pleased with it.

Yeah after u dead u just cant do anything except watching ur enemy walk here and there...

Some problem as well...
1. Where is the quit game button after we finished a match? Wait for next game start? Alt+F4?
2. Cant do anything after u killed. (Maybe they want us to wait for teammate revive. shocking.gif )
3. Need to restart the game or start next round to apply new graphic setting (happen on me, dunno others...)
4. Sometime I left 0hp...is that mean i only died when -1hp?
5. Mobilespawnpoint problem...on metro map when reach area 2 defender recon can put a mobilespawnpoint behind attacker respawn point and keep killing those who just revive... doh.gif

1) Alt-Enter to window mode or alt-tab then click on end game on the battlelog plugin.
2) It gives you time for a revive, so that you don't have to run all the way from the start if your squad is eliminated.
3) Not sure about this, haven't experiemented with settings. I just left it on High and never looked back.
4) Dunno about that.
5) Double edge sword. You can do the same thing to the defenders.

Which driver are you using ? I had random crashes with 275.33 driver. With the latest bf3 driver, i had crashes only when firefox was up and running. I have none so far ever since switching to Chrome. I've noticed a lot of people having some problems with 560 ti tho.
