Yeah man but I saw first hand how good you are with a tank last night and I ain't that good yet lol.

I will try that next time though. I would still rather not have to deal with them in first place though.

Anyone posted this yet


Here's a link if the embedding doesn't work.

Haha probably saw how bad I am with rage too.

I do not know why but the games I like the most always instil so much rage (BF2, L4D, BFBC2, L4D2, BF3).

I'm pretty sure the sparks and ricochet animations disrupt their view though, good tactic imo. Also sometimes the driver doesn't see the tank.

Turn off all the AA, it's pointless for native resolutions and is buggy in BF3.
Actually it does fix the stutter issue. I also didn't notice a downgrade in performance by disabling HT.

I was suspecting this but held back on saying anything ... apparently it is a console port after all.

Battlefield 3 lead platform 'switched to consoles' mid-development

depends on how far they developed it on the pc, if the base was developed for PC then they scaled back parts of it for console as i read it then its still a pc game.

I think you're misinterpreting it. They didn't port it from console, they just focused more on the console development in the later stages so they can do it a joint release for all platforms.

Unfortunately as we now, the PC platform suffered the most as a result, with a buggy and unstable game being released too early...

Yeah rage is always going to be a part of something like this. I think it adds to the fun though, to me if i get all ragie I am involved in the game.

Whats with the whole platoon thing?

Anyone worked out how to stop screen effects like light glare stretching in eyefinity? Makes it very difficult to play some levels

cheers

The fact that they have added the ability to change FOV in the actual options menu is a massive plus in my book. That is very much a PC thing
