I was reading on the PS Forums that some chap pre-ordered it from 4 shops to improve his chances of getting it early lol. Got a whole load of stick for it but Iike the thinking behind it. I may have been tempted if I was interested in the single player campaigns but the only time I will probably play them is if multiplayer is offline.

 

Bee are refusing to dispatch this until the 28th

I did only pay £26 for it tho

 

I paid £28 All installed, just need to wait for 00:00 on 28th for the online relase date checker to allow it to run!

 

Now u have peed me off !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i pre-ordered back in march and paid £39.90 (direct from EA) - it better be good......

 

How do you know the others are not referring to the PC version. Console versions normally mean a pocket raping session.

 

shud have said - Mine is the PC version..........!!

 

Jesus.... You got ripped mate.

 

That is steep for PC version. Just cancel it and pick it up somewhere else imho. Doesnt sound like anyone has a shortage of copies.

 

ive been playing it today PC version

just need to use a friendly korean Proxy or similar to get past the date checker

 

I got my Xbox360 version today, does this mean that I shouldn't run it because of the 'date checker'? Thanks for a quick reply as I am of course very tempting to play it right now.

 

Preordered on the PC a couple of days ago so i get the extra Karkland expansion DLC for free.

Zavvi dispatched it this morning.

I was in two minds on which format to get, i REALLY wanted it on Steam, but that was looking sketchy, so i hung on, then i tested out the Origin/Battlelog thing in the beta and did not really like it much, so i figured i would just pick up the xbox version.

Then i realised the console version looks like dog ****

 

lol

 

BF3 is live now folks (for the PC anyway) out of curiosity thinking it wasn't being released till tomorrow I tried loading my game just now and ended up getting into a 64 man server.

 

YUP !! it's ALIVE -- i'm still getting slaughtered tho'

 

Seems Sainsburys are the first to do a deal but only of interest if you want some PSN or XBL points. £25 PSN points gets you BF3 for £24.99 apparently. Not much use to me tbh but might help someone else out.

 

Hopefully they dont reset your stats at midnight tonight

 

are the cheats out already ?? just had a look at the stats and the number one guy has 12,000 plus kills and only been playing 22 minutes ??!!?? (he is russian tho' )

 

I will have a brand new copy of BF3 limited edition for PS3 for sale today (if its arrived) or tomorrow for £35 posted

 

Mines PC, played 5 hours now and its awesome!!! Campaign is one of the best for the kind of game, gfx is superb even on my Q6600 @ 3.2 and 5850.

Just set my comp date a day early and it worked!

 

Game delivered my PC LTD version today.

 

My cpanel with nvidia 285.62 is now borked Crashes when I open it. Seems I am not the only one, anyone here to?

Drivers seem ok though.

 

Just had a game and think it's actually bloody good.

 

Just picked mine up from Sains. They do only have the Limited Edition version for pre-orders only. Tried to give me a standard one even after showing my pre-order receipt. At first women told me it wasnt out yet lol. Installing now....

 

xbox servers was ****ed last night , i've been playing SP so far.

I'm impressed

 

Not sure what to do. Was planning on just waiting for MW3. The only thing that worries me about BF3 is that it could be anything like Medal of Honor - is it not meant to bear a slight resemblance in terms of the way it plays? Think Medal of Honor was based on the last Battlefield game engine?

And I fooking hated Medal of Honor. Lol

 

Few things I've noticed on the PC version, theres no way to change your name, it tends to feel a bit jumpy and there's no way to check your ping rate.

Other than that it's bloody good, I've been getting some good/kill death ratios today!

All of which I assume will be patched quite soon.

 

Nope, nothing like MoH TBH. Game play is totally different.

If you love FPS games you won't go far wrong with this.

 

Ah, I'm definitely tempted now. Can I justify buying them both though... decisions. Might have to crack open the old terramundi pot.

 

Ordered the limited edition from Amazon 2 weeks ago and you get the code for the specact kit,got the code sent by Email,but i'm sure i missed the post this morning though,or i was dreaming i heard the door knocker at 6am.

 

Ive played a little SP but MP seems to be working ok on PS3 at the mo. Sucking badly trying to find my way around these new maps.
