Here's one of them

Just remove everything from your filter selection and type in OCAU. That should find them.

I think the OCAU servers need a bit mroe admining.

The few times that the servers are populated there is generally a couple of tards in there engaging in tardery

Protip for nVidia users, I just upgraded to the 301.42 drivers and my BF3 ran like absolute dogshit, was getting half the framerates than I was on the previous 296.10 drivers. Rolled back to 296.10 and everything's fine again dunno what the hell nVidia did in their latest driver revision!

OCAU night soon?

Just had a blast killing the last 4 or so hours, so much better when you get a squad that actually wants to work together and communicate

4 of us held of ~15 opponents for maybe 20 minutes on Noshahr Canals and kept control of most of the flags.

Alright, I put some time into playing 'normal'... I still don't like it. I found it easier than hardcore, but it just felt wrong to require so many bullets to down someone.

That's me all sorted.

A lot of guys updated to the beta 304.48 and it fixed all the issues that the 301 caused and made it run far superior to the 296.10

That's weird, try the M27 IAR. Far superior gun anyway.

How can it be easier when it takes more bullets to kill? You run around a corner with a m16 in normal, you can get 2 kills if your good, hardcore 3 even sometimes 4.

Reloading costs me my most deaths. In HC, I don't need to reload half as often and can easily squad wipe with one clip and a few shots from the trusty magnum. You just can't do that it in normal with the weapons I use. I got seven kills, last night with one clip from AEK and about 4 shots from magnum.

Source (I only got revived once)

Big shout out to dark craft who is only a level 11 but SWAPPED kits to revive me. WOW

I actually enjoy HC very much and find myself playing it more and more. I like the no spotting and no kill cam. I wish more normal servers would run those options. But I definitely would never say HC is easier and I don't like TK'ing, just far too many scrubs.

Normal requires more skill with guns and recoil, find more noobs in hc I find. Luckily snipers are still 2 shot kills in hc unlike bad company 2.
