I just pre-ordered the game on Origin so I could start preloading it but of course that would have been too easy, you have to wait for an email from them letting you know you can start preloading before the option becomes available. I feel tricked, I could have got a physical version for the same price and installed it on dvd quicker now.

Didn't take long for my email. After receiving it, I had to log out and log back in to Origin to get it to work.

Played the campaign up until "Rock and a Hard Place" before deciding that I need to go to bed soon, since I have to wake up at 6 tomorrow. Having a lot of fun so far, but really excited to play some multiplayer!

 

[Stallion Free]

Man that campaign ending was hilariously bad. Maybe 2-3 good levels in there, the rest were utter shit. If only all of them were as good as the streets of Paris.

I couldn't hold a straight face at the end of that second tank level.

 

[lazybones18]

Back from Gamestop with PC copy in my hands!

 

[Symphonic]

There a fix for the login error yet?

 

[Nelo Ice]

Wow guess the LE was actually limited.

from Amazon.

Due to overwhelming demand, we have unfortunately run out of our allocation of Battlefield 3 - Limited Edition for PlayStation 3. Please check back soon as we will have Standard Editions available for purchase. Thank you for your patience.

 

[Campster]

Is anyone on the PC version getting unbearable stuttering and choppiness, even in the opening DICE/EA/Dolby video? The menus alone are basically unusable; I can't fathom what the game is like.

 

[Dynamic3]

Anyone who ordered from amazon get their dog tag code yet?

Got mine with my game key a few days ago (Fri.?).

 

[iam220]

I'm in! No VPN trick used

 

[plc268]

wtf, the same problem is happening as it did in the beta. I'd join a game for 30 seconds and the server times out and kicks me out of the game.

Thought I finally got into a good game, and I proceed to start shooting a baddie, and once again, I get this lovely fucking error.

I'm hoping it's just launch woes, but from the looks of it, no one else seems to have the problem. Stupid battlelog.

Having a complete blast with the multiplayer . Single player blows though.. to much QTEs and scripted bullshit for my taste.

They should be posting in the PC performance thread.

What are you talking about?

I pre-ordered today and received my preloading email within 3 minutes of completing my purchase.

You're not connected to one of these by chance, are you?

 

[Xplatformer]

Just letting you guys know. I'm picking this up for the PS3 and you're gonna wanna have my son on your team.

He visits every other weekend and makes my PS3 his own, while I game on my PC.

He's good.

Whooooot, just got home, time to fire this sucker up!

I like how Disc 1 is Multiplayer/Co-Op

The way God intended it.

 

[DoctorZ]

Oh god! Saw the thread title and wanted to know what the latest drivers were. My finger now hurts from scrolling. Why wont it end...it has to end!?

 

[The_Player]

Game could not login to EA Online backend.
FUUUUUUUUUUU. What the fuck is that?

 

[Proc]

Drove by the store i preordered from...20+ people waiting in line in the cold. Kept driving...getting too old for that shit...just wanted to beat rush hour crowds after work. Oh well.

 

[Symphonic]

Game could not login to EA Online backend.
FUUUUUUUUUUU. What the fuck is that?

Supposedly along the same lines as the login error. Which apparently has no solution at the moment.

 

[Gully State]

Anyone who ordered from amazon get their dog tag code yet?

yup...got mine along with my game key...I bought the digital PC version...

 

[TheJerit]

this game.... goddamn....




played mission: comrade earlier


FFFUUUUUUUU

now starting night shift. this game has me by the balls.

 

[Mothman91]

Got my copy =D. LET'S GOOO

 

[Eric WK]

Just got back from my Gamestop's midnight launch. Modest turnout when compared to other ones I've been to.

Now to sit through a day of connection errors on 360 when I could just continue playing the PC version.

 

[Ysiadmihi]

I really should learn to fly with the kb/m. If I forget to turn my 360 pad on before starting up the game I may as well stay out of any aircraft

 

[herzogzwei1989]

how good are the tank levels ?

On amazon, upper right click your digital items. Then at bottom your games & software library. Mine shows 2 keys, the game and dog tag.

 

[friskykillface]

I didn't see this in the op or can't read 0_o lol ;p but there is no online pass for this right?

 

[Drewsky]

Got it.

I ordered the retail copy.

 

[Otrebor Nightmarecoat]

Did anyone else's performance take a shit on Rock and a Hard Place?

Yeah, my fps went to the teens in that sequence while every other level was runnin in the 30 -45fps

 

[lazybones18]

Any idea what the 2nd PC disc is for?

 

[Chojin]

I didn't see this in the op or can't read 0_o lol ;p but there is no online pass for this right?

Yes, there is :|

Welcome to the future!

 

[DoctorZ]

I ordered the retail copy.

Probably get it at most 2-3 days after it shipped. Longest I had to wait for a preorder code form amazon was 3 days.

 

[3N16MA]

No one has their hands on the console version.

 

[RukusProvider]

lol you can tell from the responses from people new to proper BF series. If you were a BF2 fan, you know you're in it for the long haul.

 

[iMike76]

No one has their hands on the console version.

I got the 360 version, just got back from GameStop and I'm downloading the multiplayer disc now.

 

[FStop7]

Anyone who ordered from amazon get their dog tag code yet?

Yes, I got them with the code for the game itself.

I have a 1 gig 5870 and Ultra @ 1900x1200 really makes it sweat. It's mostly playable at 30fps but it's dipped down into the low 20's during heavy combat in the campaign. Definitely going to need to back off in order to keep the frame rate solid. Makes me want to upgrade to a better card, though...

 

[Tallshortman]

so where is the thread for the console version? i come in here and expect impressions on the multiplayer and only see people asking specs for their pc.

It's 30 minutes after midnight. Console gamers just now got their copies so I don't know why you'd expect there to be impressions so quickly.

Got my copy from Best Buy a few minutes ago. I saw around 30-40 people online.

 

[Izayoi]

let's see if repairing install fixes it after the serves have gone live for everyone

oh, nope

shocker

 

[Megasoum]

Ugh...I re-unlocked the game at midnight. Took me a couple of attempts to join a game (as expected on launch) but then 5min in I got a BSOD arghhh. I hope that was just a one of random thing. Never had BSOD with the Alpha or Beta.

The little I saw of Highway looked nice lol even if nobody knows where to go and it's just complete chaos right now.

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

No one has their hands on the console version.

Lol what?

 

[Symphonic]

So it officially unlocks at 12am PST right?

Because that's when I hit EA with complaints about this login server bullshit.

 

[xKilltheMx]

Got this at Gamestop midnight launch for PS3.
