Just because you love battlog and metro doesn't me others do. I find Battlelog to be a waste overall and rather just a decent in game browser, but I can deal with it overall, I have no choice. But Metro is a trash map, more so the first part, I like the middle parts of it only but I'm not willing to play that crap. Also doesn't help that I find Rush to be a crappy game mode anyways, I am a conquest person through and through. Since the Caspian servers went down, I tried playing one round of Metro and haven't started the game up since then.
Really? A in game browse? from EA? Have you not learned from BF2/BFBC2?
I'm with him, i love battlelog, its easy to use, it just works. The initial concerns passed quickly. I love METRO, it just feels perfect, the gameplay offers open and inclosed areas.
The game is pretty polished, the "bugs" that people have tend to be graphic issues which are not game stopping.
OK after trying the game out these were the 1st impressions
*the game has potential
*very, very fun to play in multiplayer
*it all depends on the price!!!
I found the web based server browser worked just fine. I was concerned that it would be very clunky having to alt-tab all the time and reload the whole game to join a different server, but it seems to work well enough. I don't understand people's complains about the battlelog. If you don't care about it you don't have to look at it, what is the issue?
It's funny how a lot of people are starting to go from "WTF BATTLELOG IS BAD!" to "battlelog is ok."
People don't like change. I for one can find a server and launch the game far faster with battelog that I could having to open a game and find a server in the in game browser.
I'd wager that sometime during the game's lifetime they will develop a "steam like" overlay for the game so that all we have to do it bring the overlay up and find servers/manage voip while in game.
Haha, saw this on another forum.
My favorite is dumbshit island, victory crawl made me chuckle as well, as I regularly crawl through those bushes.
ahahahahahaha this is so epic...
i can relate to all those spots too... :thumbsup:

Just left a game with a hacker. Everybody on a team would suddenly be moved/spawned in a circle where a c4 then explodes. Happened over and over again. Is this game going to have player owned servers with admins or is it all going to be EA servers?

The only think missing from that map is the spot in the middle of "bush people" where you can easily shut down the whole map with a sniper rifle. I sit at that concrete wall and easily go 20-1 before someone gets lucky and kills me or I run out of ammo. You can cover every major approach from that area on both sides of the map.
Who the heck hacks a beta?Is that how low some people online in a game have to be?
Everyone is basically saying battlelog works great?
I had completely the opposite reaction. When it works, it works fine, but more often than not I had more instances of battlelog not opening a game than anything else. I'll click "join server" and I get a message on the bottom left saying it's connecting, but nothing happens. Then sometimes it would work, but 7 times out of 10 it doesn't.
Also, alt-enter never worked for me, and the bf3 beta never seemed to save my setting when I manually set to fullscreen in the ingame options.

The point's don't add up to nothing when the game retails.
I can see why my friend Mary refuses to play online,shes a old school counterstrike type fps player who refuses to go online in any of the new games.
Enough idiots in a game and its like wow...yeah i know the internet as a whole and the world has them too but turning a game from fun into a clusterfu*k for your own benefit really crosses the line.
The whole point of this beta is to stress the Battlelog servers. There are going to be issues, but they are using this time to prepare themselves for the release of the full version.
Unfortunately it's going to play out just like every other major release for a game that has this much online integration. Servers will be sluggish, and it will be next to impossible to play for like a week. Luckily for me I know this is to be expected when their servers are getting sexually assaulted by 15 million people all trying to use them at once on release day. The difference between me and all the whiners is that I expect this to happen and I will just wait patiently for the stability of their servers to settle in instead of posting 40 threads on their forums saying they sold me a broken game.
At least for me, BF3 opens minimized. Are you sure it isn't just starting minimized? I have to use left alt for Alt+enter to work. Have you tried that?Everyone is basically saying battlelog works great?
