ktait2 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 How long has it been since you purchased the game? At first it gave me a BF3 thing in Origin, and ten minutes later a new one popped up which started downloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAXIMUS MISCHIEF Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 shut upp dont think about it. the release date is like controlled so that it is playable for any one who actually is on the 25th ,so there ya go. i guess if u changed ur time zone it would make it so u could play idk, we should try it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hautlle Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Yeah, it depends on the time. People are using a Korean VPN/Proxy to play http://www.reddit.co...n_instructions/ I wouldn't do it myself, because who knows what that box is logging... I'll just play tomorrow when I get home from class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 It's just logging into a Korean VPN, activating the game and logging out from the VPN again? Can't help myself from giving it a shot... It worked! Playing singleplayer now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hautlle Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Yeah, it should work like that Ego. Just be sure to remove the settings when you're done, and don't log into anything other than BF during that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktait2 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I think they fucked up. They retracted their statement, the release date is still the 25th. Just remember for those that use the VPN trick, it might be a good idea to reset your Origin password; can't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was already in battlelog, set up the proxy, hit start game, it did the date check and started. After i quit out I disabled the proxy and started the single player back up no problem.

Ego Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Single player is very tightly scripted, plays a lot like a CoD campaign. Running great at ultra with 2 470's, getting about 50-80FPS. Too bad it microstutters a bit at times, probably an SLI issue. But haven't been this impressed by visuals in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I am only slightly disappointed to say I will be playing this on 360 and not on PC. If I had more extra cash I would buy a 250 dolla GPU and set up a Windows 7 hard drive for BF3 but most of my IRL friends getting this are 360 lazy scrubs anyway.

MAXIMUS MISCHIEF Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 the only reason i didnt get it for xbox 360 first is cuz its only 24 players which is really lame it should at least be 32 so there ya go but theres lots of reasons i want it more on the 360 but that one reason is too big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Yeah I thought the same thing and as much 64 player plus games sound vastly superior... I realized that in BC2 PC never ever really liked how insanely random and unpredictable it felt playing in matches over 32 players. More than 30 crazies in a match unless the map is uber huge seems too wild for me. So I think I should be happy with 24 player games where I don't feel like I'm only getting killed by unpredictable random grenades/rockets etc. but yet 24 kids is enough to make it feel like warfare. I mean If my IRL friends were getting this on PC I would definitely buy a new GPU for this (still would probably prefer games of no more than 30 players) and say fuck 360 but... trade offs, they a bitch dog.

Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Back To Karkand includes Wake Island, Strike at Karkand, Gulf of Oman, and Sharqi Peninsula FYI it probably won't be released for a few weeks maybe more than a month? No official word on it's release but it sounds like it will be before December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Blanket Fort Collapse Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 BTW BF3 is fucking good fun. Not disappointed in the least. Tell your friends to buy this instead of Modern Warfare 3. COD is a fucking tired ass franchise that is taken no risks with evolving their gameplay or engine. MW3 doesn't deserve to be THE military shooter of this winter. Game hasn't came out yet but I know these things? Probably because because all the last 4 COD games have been the same fucking shit over and over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hautlle Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I only played the campaign yesterday. Looking forward to getting off work @ noon, going home, packing a huge bowl, and playing the shit out of this :sup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
