Battlelog needs Windows 7 jump list support. Would be awesome to just click into your favorite server from the task bar.

Ugh, I can't join any MP games at all. Just gets stuck on 'joining server...' every time. I'd really like to be able to play this game at some point. Any ideas as to why this is happening? PC version here.
Support is becoming my most played class but I often neglect to throw ammo boxes. Though the reason is because I'm typically paranoid of my surroundings (can't hear footsteps with all the noises and explosions) I'd say it's mostly because there's really no good indication of someone who wants ammo. Sure there are people on the minimap who need ammo but if I throw ammo their way, they'll just ignore it and continue going where they want to go. I'd really like the text indication from BF2 to come back (as an option of course, I know the chat box is awful in its current state) so that someone around who wants ammo will notify me and the text box will indicate that.

Player has to let you know they need ammo I believe. they point the cursor at you and then hit the button to ask for healing/ammo

Is there something I'm missing here for getting co-op to work? I'm inviting a friend and he doesnt get the invite, then he invites me and I do get the invite but he doesnt see how to start the game. What are we missing here?

fixed that for you.
Well, I was able to play a fair amount anyway. Have to stop now, because trick or treaters are starting to come around, so I don't want to be getting up every 2 minutes during an MP match.

haha..that's the gag...you don't. You have to wait for the next match to start, and THEN back out. Annoying, yes. Was the same on BC2 (console anyway)...not sure why they wouldn't change it.
I think you have to wait until the map loads and then quit. That is how I do it on PS3.Chittagong said:
I hate how people ignore you when you need ammo and healing. I will spam them trying to get help and most of the time they just act like nothing is happening. I really wish they had a tutorial to tell you what each class has and can do before people get in the multiplayer so they can at least understand their purpose.

And it records it as a quit for doing that.

Word. I don't rack up nearly as much point without the motion sensor ball. I miss that thing so much
As far as I'm concerned BF3 is a prime example that some games just need a paper manual and an in game help menu doesn't always cut it. If there was a proper manual explaining things like the spotting mechanic and audio cues for ammo and health requests I think we'd see new people using them. The death of proper manuals is one of the saddest things I've seen this gen.

I think you're having a memory problem...
A few years ago...people were saying "No one reads manuals" "who cares if their black and white" yada yada yada and pubs/developers listened...and now they're wafer thin at best and still black and white...and cases are lighter for it too...

Would have been nice to have something to leaf through while waiting for the installation and matches to load.

I am so glad they stopped putting in big, color manuals. It's such a giant waste of resources, a huge majority of people buying these games really don't read the manuals at all. And those of us who do... well, it's just a novelty anyways. Certainly not worth the paper that's wasted printing them out.

They should have an in-game voice tutorial like they did in Battlefield 2. As you did stuff, a voice would tell you the necessary information regarding the things you're using and stuff like that. Anyone remember this? I'm surprised they did away with that stuff.
Anyone here having problems with hitreg/damage? It seems to be that I have to put in hundreds of bullets into enemies, even tons of shots in the head to do shit. I shot a guy 2-4 times into the head and then he turns around and gives me 1-2 bullets back and I drop dead, while he is laughing with his 50% health.
So I captured a couple of rounds on video and looked at the hit regitration frame by frame. Can only say that its not funny to see it that way. Hits register when you actually didnt hit (at least visually), then they dont hit when you hit someone or they just come with a delay? Just annoying ... dunno if its lag, bad servers or whatever.
