Battlefield3 thread....

[platmatt8]

Excited would be an understatement on my part.....

[H3RB]

any one got a spare early access key? lol

[StevieL]

Got a quick 5 on it before work, seems very good

downloading now...what do i have crap internet 30 mins to wait

[cvega666]

where do you download it then ? on the PC... xbox I can't see it either :s

[StevieL]

I got it from the PlayStation store.

Seems ok, for an unfinished demo. Plays pretty much like BF2, weapons are ok, for a demo....needs a fair bit of tidying up though, some floors are lower than the visual floor, I got spawned into a wall, sometimes you get weapon cross hairs, other times you don't.

you need EA's version of steam called origin

I bet it'll ship like that

The discs have probably already gone into production - it's launched in 4 weeks time.

It'll get patched - if we're lucky

[Slarty]

It'll get patched, then patched again, then nerfed, then patched, and then one last do or die patch - if we're lucky

Fixed

I did enjoy playing it, but I remembered why I got bored of the last two, as mentioned earlier, you get shot, you respawn 15 miles back and spend half the game running back to the action, to get shot and repeat...........

Pre-ordered COD Modern Welfare 3 already

Just respawn onto another player! Job done. Battlefield3 is a brand new engine and game.

MW3 is exactly the same as MW2! I've played it.

Exactly!....or dont get shot!

[StevieL]

Not when your whole team gets brassed up lol

I think I prefer the close action you get with the COD games, I might rent this game out for a weekend when I have my next free weekend in January

[cvega666]

hmmm.. played xbox version (i'm terrible at any FPS using a gamepad) and PC. PC version looks mint!! apart from the obvious glitches. Will be deffo buying the PC full version

[thai boxer]

Beta is out now and its free and available to everyone on 360, pc and ps3! Just download it from XBL or the playstation store. 1.3GB.

[platmatt8]

Well, I was excited about downloading and playing the beta but after doing this


Let's hope there is some serious tidying up of the multi player before it launches.

[Phill P]

Downloaded it on ps3 today,......got shot alot but does look good,deffo on the xmas list.

Think I have to get more points to get the good toys like sights,lasers etc.

[H3RB]

pc users add me on origin H3RBSKI_1

[PW@Woodsport]

Tried to download the Beta, went through all of the Origin crap and it won't install on my system, it would appear from reading the forums where this is a common issue that it won't install on XP, because XP won't allow DX9 or over, which the game tries to install but fails.

SO! EA and DICE have alienated everyone on XP from the Beta test... hopefully they get this sorted for the full retail version, there's millions of us still on XP.
