Heh, first place you should look before you hop in a game with Gaffers is mumble. If we're in there you won't feel silly later.

oh man 64 players in those maps would be MADNESS
Probably unplayable, what's the suggested limit for these maps anyway? 24?

Yeesh, sounds way too low. I'll try 24 - 30 player servers instead when it's out.
Aren't CQ maps capped at 16 players? Or at least their gamemodes?

Not on PC, there are already CQB servers on battlelog with higher player limits.
On Tuesday for premium members, two weeks later for others.

Anyone know where I can find on the battlelog where it shows the reasons I keep getting kicked from games. It feels like I've been kicked from at least 10 games in the last hour and it's really pissing me off. Not to mention I can't even see the so-called "violations" I've committed

The reason's 'cause the admin said so. They probably expect you to be grateful that they even let you play on their server at all.

Anyone with a response that doesn't sound completely dickish?

Haha, sorry. You probably just killed the admin. They really don't need a reason to kick and most of them aren't the kind of people that'd be good at being an admin.

Thanks to Dice Billboards Corp., it's very easy for admins to discern who is premium quality and who isn't.

yeah, DICE servers are pretty full on both consoles. lots of people not feeling the whole admin thing. some admins are pretty ridiculous.
Lots of brats renting servers without having to worry about monthly billing.

Without a doubt, Battlefield admins are the biggest pricks. It's like they gave these rights to people with unresolved bullying issues, and now that they're in a position of power, they want to bully people too.
I'm a server admin and i'd feel ashamed if i pulled a quarter of the shit that i've gotten from Battlefield admins during my time.
Australia is the 12th, maybe thats how.
Yeah I thought it was 6-11 as well, idk why people are saying 6-12. There are a bunch of servers with it up but I only see one that has people on it but it's at 64 players with 7 in the queue. I tried to join and it didn't say I couldn't.
e: just a continuous black loading screen when I tried to join

Might be still the 11th in the US when it released but if you press the "i" button on Battlefield 3 in origin where you can see your dlc and such it shows the release date as 12th for me.

I have a PS3 server that I mix up. Unless you do something really bad (like say racial insults), I won't kick/ban. If interested, let me know.
As for PC, I played quite a bit this weekend. The ridiculous amount if aimbot use really hurts the enjoyment of this game. Plus, without voice communication, it is hard to win. But alas, I still play.

I don't think aimbotting is as prolific as people think. I get accused of cheating pretty much every game I play even though I am most definitely not. It's possible to make 600-800m kills on a regular basis, it just takes lots of practice and a low latency (and using the M98B on hardcore).

I just assume most bullshit deaths I have are due to the netcode, not hacking.
That's generally what it is. Very noticeable when playing with people who you're in vent etc with. I've fired Javs and had them impact on my screen, but friends report that they didn't see me fire one at all. Shit like that happens all of the time.

If I am shot from across the map a split second from emerging from cover by someone shooting a site-less pistol, that is not skill. When people are shooting at you before you even emerge from a wall, there is no way they could know I am there if no MAV/TUG is nearby. I know there is skill, but my ping has been in the teens and twenties, and I see plenty of suspicious aiming excellence and spider senses.
In addition, I see a ton of admin messages saying people are banned for aimbot usage. The problem is that before getting kicked, the offenders get off quite a few momentum
killing kills that can undercut honest play. The cheaters are like cockroaches. You ban three and three more enter the room.

Maybe I haven't run into as many actual cheaters, then. I do get killed by the rare Magnum-across-the-map, which is obviously a cheat, but it's rare that I feel impacted by them before they get banned (which is never more than a few minutes). By the way, even with a super low ping, client side prediction can fuck you over - say you strafe like you're going to peek around a corner, while you may not actually follow through, it's possible the somebody's client interprets otherwise, and shows you strafing out on that person's screen. If you're shot, their client sends that data to the server and you wind up dead. Always slow before approaching corners, and don't make aggressive movements when the intent is only to peek. If possible, peek using prone. This greatly reduces the chances of a client misinterpreting your actions and fucking you over. If I'm going around a corner, I first pause behind the wall, and then run around, making sure to follow through. 9 times out of 10 I end up with the kill.

came across this guy.
http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/user/deomenius1/
Despite his stats, he was stuck inside a non-destruction wall above the first B MCOM on Karkand as a recon and was unkillable, not missing a shot until someone put an rpg into the wall.
Was fucking infuriating. I unloaded a whole PKP into him and he took no damage, follwed by being sniped through the wall whilst i reloaded.
If it's not the netcode causing untold amounts of bullshit, it's untold amounts of bullshitters causing problems.

Seems to be a glitch, check this video out that has the same thing happening:

On Origin, it tells me 1 PM EST. You don't actually download it though.

As of last week, it's the #5 most played game online. So, it's pretty active. The console people usually talk in the console community thread.

CQ is up for premium PC users.
It's decent enough, but the AUG and the G3 put it to shame. I would almost always use other ARs over it.
3GB is pretty big for 4 maps.
