DEEJAYKEG

X-RayXI DEEJAYKEG UnChileno DEEJAYKEG It didn't work for me. Even if the game had remained running for enough time to alter any settings, I couldn't locate where one alters them... It froze even before spawning after about one minute! The in-game menus all seem to be about customising load-outs. Are you still having FUN Deejay?..lmfao Thanks for the helpful input. Love the game - just wish I could play it! Can you tell me what you already tried with a list? So we can look what the issue is? Plus, what is your hardware. 1. Repair - no corrupt files and latest version of game installed; 2. Registry check - all good; 3. Update of AMD video driver to latest version; 4. Primalfear's suggestion. 5. Disabled Realtek HD audio driver - no change - game froze up and stopped working. Hardware: i7-860, 2.8Ghz, Win 7 Home Premium 32-bit, Radeon HD 6870 1GB video card (factory settings, no overclock), 4GB RAM Just minor niggles before the patch but able to play. Post patch, connection to servers very slow if at all and BF3 stops working within a minute of joining game. The issue is the patch so until DICE mends what they have broken, I fear there isn't a great deal one will be able to do...

There is one location on the Caspian Borders map that is, to all intents and purposes, untouchable by anyone other than a pilot (and a good pilot with a very good aim, I suggest). Having been shot many times from it (on servers other than the clan's, I must add), I can tell you that it is the topmost gantry on the huge antenna at Point A, near the US spawn. Having never tried to ascend that mast, I can't say whether there is a ladder up the side or stairs within it but the brief view I have had of the view it affords (from the identification of the killing player in-game) one would be able to see pretty much the whole map from up there. Snipers have always been using the Recon class and a powerful rifle with scope. My guess is that the sniper gets there via chopper and may deploy a beacon for respawns up there. But, surely, to make 70 kills, someone is going to have to be resupplied with ammo sometime?

GorillaXI I just got the game yesterday, and still learning it. I only play in our servers no matter what the game is. Who cares about ranking up. It's all about the fun. So please don't drop the servers just yet Rugger. On a side note. How do you join our servers in Steam? I don't know how to use Steam that well. You can find the clan servers in the server browser within the game itself.

I always check the clan servers when loading the game but hardly ever see any players in either so follow the crowd wherever the party is playing. HC Kill Confirmed seems to be the most popular game type. If the servers are staying empty completely, one has to ask why... Are they visible and running the games that people (not just XI members) want to play?

Venery ok.,,,,uninstall any overclocking utilitys that you may be using....i was using evga percision ....restart your computer and the game should work fine......seems this is an issue with all types of cards back up and playing....no issues Factory settings here...

2_MANY_BEERS I vote this one if it is team death match. This one if it's a DM one. Nice small and slow map. I would say Yorktown. If you want some real pictures of it as it sits I can go get them for you? It's about 20 miles away from me. Have you got your scuba gear handy, Beers? CV-5 was sunk at the Battle of Midway in 1942! CV-10 is the one now tied up at Charleston, SC. Are they similar?

Still no word from DICE/EA on their patching cock-up...

Venery great news......the reinstall didnt work....same exact problem It was unlikely to do so, I'm afraid. Have a look at the (173 pages!) of feedback on the in-game forum and you'll get a taste of the widespread nature of the problems. We're all suffering pretty much the same thing (some people are worse off than us!) and users of nVidia and Radeon cards are represented so it isn't a hardware/driver incompatibility. Takes me back to Treyarch's treatment of COD:BO... The irony is that MW3 appears to have been fixed by its patches!

xCaliber DEEJAYKEG I am pissed off. The patch has crippled the game for me. It now locks up and stops working in the middle of every game I play. You may not be seeing me playing for some time - at least until they get another patch out to fix this ****ing one! No problem ..played 6 hours straight..not even single flicker...I guess reinstall should fix it for u Deejaykeg I've been down the "repair" road already and it reports that none of the files are damaged or corrupt and I have the latest version of the game. Simple logic: able to play before the patch; unable to play after the patch = patch problem. And, from what one reads online (and here now), I am far from a single sufferer. The simplest solution is rarely the easiest or the correct one, in my experience...

xCaliber 2cuteSue Venery the game is garbage.....even worse for me after the patch how so? one man garbage is another mans treasure!! i love the fukin game... its bad ass.. and after the patch and im sure a few more this will be one hell of a game!! +1 +1 more!

About 10'x10' here. Think of a cross between a library, equipment room and junk store! Overflowing bookcases, bags of fishing tackle, shelves of DVDs and games and boxes I haven't dared to open since we moved in over three years ago... In the background, network cables, satellite TV receiver etc. I've spent half my recent life in here (if I venture out, I am told to return...). I did make noises about a coffee machine but that has so far been denied and the need to go upstairs to fetch beer from the fridge provides ample exercise!

Welcome, V.S!

Bigmeandean Braggarts! everyone of you maggots! I can't wait to have fun either! There's a throwing knife as a perk too!

If you have to go to the bathroom, don't leave your toddlers with access to a five-pound bag of flour...

These changes will also be implemented for consoles when we release the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 updates shortly. Stay tuned for the exact date of the console updates. First, we need to look at how joining with Squads and Platoons affects the balance of teams. Initially, servers are commanded to equal out each side, so joining with friends can impact that balance while joining with Platoons further hinders this. As a result we have made some adjustments to the in-game Squad management screen. For PC, you are now able to highlight the various Squads and select which one you wish to join by selecting a Squad and then clicking the Join Squad button. Please note that the Squad Privacy option still allows 2 man Squads which, during 64 player sessions, can lead to players with no squad position –- the number of people with no Squads will be shown at the bottom of the Squad selection list. After the patch is applied to consoles (in the near future) you will be able to join Squads by cycling through the list and selecting which Squad you wish to join

Did they use the same computer system before the training? If so how have error rates been affected? Are they spending less time performing tasks after training than before?

Hahahaha!

Take your seats...

Very good but always ensure you pot in the right hole and stay away from the pink...

Waiting betweenBishops Stortford and Harlow, to catch speeding drivers, a Police Officer sees a car puttering alongat 11MPH. Says he tohimself: "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!" So he turns on hislights and pulls the driver over. Approaching the car, he notices that thereare five old ladies, two in the front seats and three in the back...wide eyedand white as ghosts. The driver,obviously confused, says to him "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit!What seems to be the problem?" "Ma'am,"the officer replies, "you weren't speeding, but you should know thatdriving slower than the speed limit canalso be a danger to other drivers." "Slower thanthe speed limit? No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly...eleven miles anhour!" ....the old womansays a bit proudly. The Policeofficer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that M11 is the roadnumber, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed,the woman grins and thanks the officer for pointing out her error. "But before Ilet you go, Ma'am, I have to ask...Is everyone in this car OK? These women seemawfully shaken, and they haven't made a sound this whole time," "Oh, they'llbe all right in a minute officer. We've just comeoff the A120."

Sonovabich Signed...but bit won't make any difference, they don't want us making our own maps. When there's money to be made, I have to agree with you. I know Karkand is due out soon but haven't heard of any further planned map packs, have you?
