Battlefield 3 Clubhouse

[Mals]

Sweet spots man. Base of the turrent and the ass. Two rockets without reactive armor.......OR a jav. Mines work wonders also.

Yeah I have some work to do as far as learning the game. I spent the majority of my time trying to get this comm/spot thing settled. I guess I am going to avoid recon until it happens. I'll assume there is a BF3 TPU Teamspeak?

Yes.

Not an official TPU server, really, but it's just TPU'ers usually. We could always use a few more players, please do join us!!

I'll only play with you if you upgrade to the 670 so your fps are better!

No really tho.. how can you guys play these games at like 60 fps? I gave up on FPS for years because of my CRT monitor dying.. bought a 19" widescreen LCD.. couldn't play FPS games without cringing.

Got a 120 hz... playing FPS again

Myself and others that frequent the TS have noticed that BF3 really does seem to be FPS-sensitive when it comes to accuracy. I actually play best now with three cards, and v-sync enabled.

But then, I'm not a guy that wins based on kills...I'm much more focused on team-based bonuses like heals, revives, and capturing points, beucase really, I kinda suck.

oh I see, there's an x3 next to that 6950.. haha.

As a diehard, really picky long time FPS gamer... You have to turn off Vsync. It will absolutely ruin your ability to aim. Turn it off, and see how fast your mouse responds to your input. With it on.. your mouse should feel like you're moving through mud. With it off, you should feel MUCH faster (altho probably some tearing). If you have the ability to upgrade to 120 hz do it IMMEDIATELY... esp with the tri card setup, you will have 120 hz constantly and .. well, and you will pwn newbs

You'd be surprised how HUGE of a difference having correct hardware makes you better at aiming on shooters.

I'm also just realizing you're running 3x IPS Dells which I'm sure is gorgeous =P I also guarantee you'd play significantly better at a legit refresh rate.

How come every time I get into a conversation with someone here I realize they spend way more money on their computer than I do?

Either way maybe I'll hop in TS tonight and blow up some fools with you guys =P

That's quite alright. I am precisely that kind of riff raff that shuts things down. ... So BF3? Pretty fun right? Anyone able to disable Comm Rose yet? (<-- back on Topic, booya)

I did not pay for most of my rig, so don't get the wrong idea about that one!

But yeah, my PCs are a bit..well..overkill? 3 cards, three monitors, and some BF3 sounds good right?





Such silly purchases...

I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. Whole point of playin video games is to enjoy em, if that helps you enjoy em then good

However, I think you would be good to attempt the 120 hz thing.. I'm not sure if you ever played shooters back in the CRT days (most likely you have).. the difference is huge. At least turn off vsync and tell me that your mouse feels MUCH more responsive. If you cant' sense that increase in mouse responsiveness then maybe 120 hz doesn't matter and you should stick to healing

I dunno man. I do pretty good with my system and its not even as nice as yours.

It's like the exact same as mine except the 560>670

I don't doubt that you do well. I only doubt that you wouldn't do better if you were playing at 100+ frames!

Doubt that you would not do better had not you had not your.. monitor..?

Seriously though.. the difference between 60frames and 120frames is.. the difference between 30 frames and 60 frames. If that makes sense =P

He was on with us last night, but I know you reserve Wednesday nights for plucking your eyebrows.

And Idaho:

I have always wondered
why you use the return
key in a lot of your posts so
they look like this, instead
of the first line of this post.

Not sure just habit from the old days I guess with less resoultion.

Not to take away from your knowledge at all, but caDaveca is a tester for TPU ! His is the man with the answers. Just so yuh know. I have been thinking hard about going to 120 htz, but have to get my summer Vacation out of the way before I can start saving for more toy's. A nice long line just for you Alex
Take it back just did some pricing. I'm not good enough at any game to justify that kind of money ! My LG says it is running at 75HZ so I'll stick with that.

 

[1Kurgan1]

I like the shorter lines personally. It really fucks with me when I type like a 5 - 6 sentence paragraph and it looks massive in the message box, so I space it and start a new paragraph. Then I post it and it's like 2 lines long and I have what looks like a bunch of tiny paragraphs.

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

heh, silly cat.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Gah what fail...I let Kevin beat me.

Cats good, look on his face is priceless, but what got me is that peeking horse blanket in the background, just enough of it's face showing to make me think of.

Haha I know he is. I was just yankin his chain. I do, however, think that playing at 60 FPS is a travesty.. but it really depends on how sensitive you are to that stuff. Personally, I can't stand it... especially vsync, it just makes it impossible to aim.

 

[ZenZimZaliben]

I noticed.. it is slightly disappointing in that sense =P I am a big fan of the aggressive recon experience, I think playing normal style recon is borrrrrrrrring as all hell. I've been just playing assault in the meantime since it's so difficult to play recon the way I want.

So anyway.. has anyone found a fix for the Comm Rose removal from spotting? =D

I mapped mine to the "interact/use" button.

 

[Mals]

That's interesting. Mine is R.. it hasn't made you jump into a vehicle or something at some point? heh. I can try that.. spot would be so perfect tho.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Does he mean the old bug where you can't properly/fully remap spot/commorose? If so, there is a fix (checkbox) for it in the settings utility from Realmware, IIRC. Or perhaps this was finally fixed by patch too I am not sure.

That one was a bitch at first for me; had to use Autokey to switch them.

Nah not that issue. That is fixed in the BF3 config editor.

My issue is I want to bind my "Steady Scope" to my "Spot" key but if I hold it down it brings up the Comm Rose. Because I am so picky about my button selection.. I can't find a comfortable button for Steady Scope aside from Spot.. and I want them bound without the comm rose popping up.
