Apparently Demize (Lead designer) said they're going to patch suppression. Good stuff.

You know, I cancelled that 680 I ordered because it was kind of an impulse purchase. I want to wait for the 4 gig model. Do you guys think that a AMD Phenom 2 x4 975 would be too much of a bottleneck for the 680?

Honestly, it might. But it really depends on the game. For Battlefield 3, probably not.

hey BattlefieldGAF, I'm having some weird problems with my game that I didn't have pre-patch (and didn't have the first day of the patch, either).
1. the return of stuttering. I'm not running Crossfire so I honestly don't know what's causing it. Very frustrating, makes it hard to play.
2. my mouse sensitivity feels like it's being tuned for a gamepad, but I have no controllers plugged in. As of last night, my inputs have felt really weird - moving the mouse up and down yields way faster movement than side to side. Combined with the stuttering, my game is pretty hard to play right now.
I'm running the game on mostly medium settings on a rig with a Radeon 6850 and a Phenom II X4 965. Any idea what's causing this stuff?

"as you can see I'm suppressed right now as I'm killing these guys..."
It's fine. I understand listening to your player base, but at some point you're going to have to make the game you want to make, instead of constantly (over)reacting to message boards.
Wonder if this has any bearing on the 360 patch not being out yet?

360 patch this week: http://attackofthefanboy.com/news/battlefield-3-xbox-360-patch-week/
No mention of the custom server options that PS3 got.

I don't think 64 player Metro and tactics really belong in the same sentence.

Is there a reason to not think that is coming? Basically the article you linked says nothing about pieces being left out so I am wondering why you are assuming so?

Just preparing for the worst. All articles related to it seem to have DICE specifically saying "New for PS3!" with no mention of upcoming 360 functionality. I'd like to assume it's coming to 360 but...

Ok, thanks!

I don't really see a problem with that. What else is supposed to happen if you fire 200 rounds from an MG in tight quarters?

That is a stupid video because it's Metro 64. Metro has NOTHING to do with real gameplay and tactics. Of course suppression is broken on there... EVERYTHING is broken on Metro.
Ah, cool. Are these just like private servers, or are they going to be selectable from the server browser option?
Its for entertainment..........

Nah, it's a stupid video because he would have had about 40 team kills if he wasn't playing on the baby server.

schweeet!
Tv missiles from the gunner. They are okay to use now.
I see. Then I suppose it's just the killcam being broken because it keeps telling me the driver/pilot is taking my vehicles out.

I am Skill 675! Who here can best me, mortals?
What does Skill mean?
I don't know how it works, but it's extremely fluctuating
I like the drop from 750 to 280 within a day :lol

Does anyone have any suggestions/links? This is still messing with my game, even though I'm running at a pretty constant 40-50fps.

Very excited for the patch tomorrow. I was beginning to think that the 360 pat didn't exist.

Whoa, small world. I played you in a server for a few hours a couple days ago I think. You destroyed me round after round. I remember your name because everytime you killed me I was forced to think of Bruce Willis.
We must now be nemesises on GAF as well. Sorry brah.

That's a cool site. Although for me it says there's not enough data to plot a graph. I've never notice it fluctuate like you are saying though. Every time I look at it it's roughly in the same spot - and been creeping up slowly. I wonder if what they report on Battlelog is just an average of all those graph points.
My skill is ranked 7008 (2%). Interesting.
Top 94% for Revives Per Assault Minute. So, basically, fuck you guys.
Skill is a relative measure of your player based on who you kill and who kills you.
EG. you skill is 675 and you kill someone who is 700, your skill goes up. If someone who is skill 500 kills you your skill goes down.
Its not a very good metric at all because someone who camps 6 miles away and get 2 kills a round is very high skill. So are vehicles drivers. Yet someone who caps all the point go 40 and 26 may only be 400 skill

Two different guns, brah.
They somehow mixed it up though. I noticed it as well.
I'm not entirely sure if this is the place where to post this: But since a month or two, I've been getting some serious lag issues when playing online (CO-OP is fine).
It starts out smooth as a baby's bottom, but after 20 or so minutes ingame, the game starts lagging like crazy. My gun dissapears and appears again, the sound lags like a badly tuned radio and the latency is through the roof.
I've tried switching from Wi-Fi to cable, going down to Medium quality(even though it should be able to run at High), turning off Vsync etc.
Does anyone has a solution to this problem, or is it unfixable?

Sounds more like a hardware issue than network connection.

Just downloaded patch for this on 360.
HUD bobbing appears to have been removed?
Might just have been because I was on a paid server. Can anyone confirm if this happens on DISE servers too?
Absolute pain in the arse if they have removed this...Won't do my plasma any good at all

Unless you're playing for like 12 hours at a time, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. Maybe a bit of image retention, but it'll go away.

Yeah, I suppose so but ever since I had screen burn on an LCD hdtv (yes, an LCD one), I'm ultra paranoid about screen burn.
I just don't understand why they have removed it : /

Xbox prompted me for an update, but the patch im downloading is 157 meg rather than a gig. Does it download the full 1 gig over different updates?

Same issue here, I havent downloaded the 1gig rent a server patch though. I kind of hoped I wouldnt need that to play multiplayer as I have no intention of ever actually renting a server.
