Battlefield 3 - Part 1

[Balthus Dire]

It's a lot like how it was in BC2. Rarely do you feel like the map is too big because the objectives are placed so well. And of course if you are in a plane, the map scales so you can go further than the ground troops. There is absolutely no problem with the map scaling man.

Awesome, glad to hear it.

Why in the blue hell would you be interested in single player when there is a mp like this? That's like buying uncharted because you are mainly interested in the multi player.

and Im NOT buying it for the analogy you just mentioned. Thank you for that

Anyone having issues connecting to the ea servers?

 

[Paroxysm]

lol, no.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

lol, no.

Well my buddies and i can't connect to any of the online components and of course EA has issued, yet again, another BS statement saying how "they didn't anticipate this much activity and are working to correct the issues".

I dont get it, how did they not anticipate this much traffic? Its been one of THE most talked about games this year, the beta did HUGE numbers and the preorders were through the roof. Makes no sense.

 

[Paroxysm]

What's weird. Can you can choose your region with the server?

You can, but i can't even get to that page man. As soon as i click on Multiplayer, its says i can't connect to the EA Servers. Im not the only one having this problem. There's just a TON of traffic on those things. You think EA would of learned after this SAME thing happened in BC2.

 

[Paroxysm]

Stupid game developers.

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Stupid game developers.

LOL.

Sometime i wonder about developers man. Like they forget the simplest s**t sometimes. The guys who develop sports games never cease to amaze me.

I just dont understand how they could of under anticipated this launch.

 

[Paroxysm]

I think they're just cheap. They don't want to spend money on the simplest of s**t. lol

Basic PR mumbo Jumbo, obviously they were never equipped in time for this kind of day one influx, they knew it beforehand, and are now doing damage control.

I like her.

 

[Spider-Vader]

LOL! The AI was all like "Oh s*** the player!" *runs back in & kicks open door*

 

[B]

I love the guy that's playing reaction after they all run through the door..

Then the AI comes running back through the door to kick it open for him to get out.

 

[Iceman]

Haha, the AI remembers human players can't glitch through walls like them.

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

Man this game looks nice.

Spoiler

 

[Iceman]

Certainly a step up from BC2!

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Wow that truly is gorgeous man.

Played a few minutes, lost connection to game, tried again: Lost connection to EA servers, tried again: Failed to connect to EA Online. Please try again. Checked my recent player list and none of them were joinable, checked them over and over. Must've kicked us all off at around 8:00 PST

Yea EA has been tweeting all night that they are having problems because they "didn't anticipate the level of activity."

Well, they better anticipate our collective boot entering their butt with the force of mack truck doing top speed.
