Battlefield 3 Clubhouse

Lulz, the story got 7.5 on Gametrailers...this is BF3s only flaw. This is where COD can take advantage off

CDdude55 · Oct 24, 2011

Battlefield games have always had dull and uncreative storylines. To me it's pretty much only a multiplayer game.

It's like Doom 3's multiplayer, ya it's there, but that's not what everyone is buying it for.

Glad the reviews are high though. :rockout:

Time to switch drivers!

That graph shows 14fps for at max detail 1920 for a hd5750 and 38 fps for a gtx580.... surely that cant be right.

Yes it's odd but maybe that's how the engine works. PCgameshardware are a trusted site/magazine.

Looks like my machines will run it fine maxed if I cut back the resolution to 1680x1050.
I can live with that. Guess I'll find out soon enough. Day one will be all about tweeking the Graphic's I think :rolleyes:

i'm sorry but cod hasn't had an original hole-free story in a decade. i don't think it gives them any advantage.

I think so, here in the U.S. it's supposed to launch/unlock at midnight i believe.

I think these guys are legit, I have had 3 email replies from them in the last 5-6hrs. Its just I need a few days to dl the game and would like my key before the 24th. Apparently they are not allowed to ship them until then. I am referring the the LE, the std edition is shipping already.

They do seem legit and are being hassled big time by thousands of people simply because origin is dl now and they are not shipping keys until 24th.

I thought the game was available on 25th but origin is saying 27th.

CJS has sold out of BF3, 15000 copies sold. Apparantly they are getting more stock soon. WTF are they going to do with 15000 physical copies of bf3. shred em I spose!!

I took the highlighted what they said to you ,Only standard Edition pre-loads and you do not get a key for LE until later??mmm so why is mine pre-loaded They know they are stolen cds (russian mob do this all the time and never gets reported) See the loopy excuses they give out to customers when all they want is $$$ That`s just me..... As for the 15000(wich is roughly the equal to what a city with 6 major stores get ,warehouse to warehouse then separated to chain stores,just for shits and giggles go to you local retail store and ask how many they get in 15 cases should equal 300 copies.) copies they get sell maybe 200-500 and then keep the rest to sell Like I said before to hacker sites,Say Catalyst Hax,FreeHax.....I have seen him on those message boards doing it.I should say bragging how he got them.

alexsubri · Oct 24, 2011

Single player if Battlefield is nothing.

I have micro ATX board. I'm probably gonna wait for the
7000 series before I upgrade my GPU. Or lose patience and
get a new board and another 6870

Xfire makes me nervous
though with new games.

Pretty good i must say especially since IGN is CoD Fanboy central

Not this time at least. Worked fine with beta. And surely a new driver is imminent. By the way, as we use an app called Xfire please call it Crossfire (which is correct anyway).

Did I just read that they thought MW sits on a graphically impressive engine? I'm going to have to try blindfold reviews as well....

Placebo Effect strikes again! avg COD player, "It has a 3 so it has to have better graphics!". :roll:

digibucc · Oct 24, 2011

seriously comparing those reviews makes me a little stupified. they really are obviously cod tools... i never noticed that. i knew there was a reason i never liked em

alexsubri · Oct 24, 2011

anyone have a VPN username and pw I can try out?

Wrigleyvillain · Oct 24, 2011

Order had moved on to shipping in system so couldn't cancel with EA on Thursday so have to refuse delivery for a refund. Watch that physical from Origin show up today after all. Well, that's cool, would just cancel Gamestop and keep Origin's, which I got for only $48. Gamestop is $63 with tax and don't remit payment til pickup.

So either way I'm playing late tonight. Will be nice to be one of the first and see most everyone at Rank 1...

Joystiq review is a good read.

Wrigleyvillain · Oct 24, 2011

Yeah even though I was, of course, not ever buying this for any SP I am still a bit surprised and disappointed that it turned out to be another meh based on what I thought they were trying to do this time around and also pretty much everything I'ver seen and read until these reviews dropped.

Well I'm no longer wondering if I should try SP first...
