I see some commentary already on the battlelog forum from intl players...

Its quite cool. Very intense. Needs more maps though.
 
I saw the double xp weekend on BL :D

But my CQ download is taking ages, not sure whats up. It said half an hour so I wait and now it says 17 minutes. Any longer and I'm gonna rage
 
Close quarters maps suck imo, just like all recent Call of Duty maps, trapped rat syndrome.
 
Don't know if its been mentioned but bf3 is now R175 on Orgin:D Pulling my 16.2GB at 600KB/s

It is fun - I'd say closer to MW sort of games than your usual BF game. The maps have lots of levels and corners and twists and turns. It is absolutely manic when it gets full. If you don't have enough players you could travel for days without seeing anyone. The maps have quite a nice atmosphere to them - downed helicopter, building works, working machinery. that sort of thing.

I think the maps look great and the damage is very nice but agreed on the trapped rat syndrome. I can't see the teamplay element in it when you hardly even have time to throw meds or ammo, let alone say two words on VOIP to your teamies about the guy who spawn knobbed you from the place you'd just cleared 10 seconds before.

The other thing is that, while I have nothing against close combat like CQ (I was a long time Q2 player and loved it), BF3's game engine doesn't really excel in these close, close encounters and I think it's partially due to the client side hit detection. Incredibly frustrating when your shotgun at point blank mysteriously misses its target on occasion. Because of this, I find it hard to get into even just for the satisfaction factor alone because it aint there IMO. Sucks because I wanted it to be good but I just don't see myself around there for long unless they bring in vanilla conquest without random spawns etc.
 
Anyone else have this problem, it really pisses me off, firstly even though I tick the remember me box for the server browser the game never auto logs in, then once I log in manually half the time it forgets my preferences, I have to keep resetting the region, this really pisses me off, been going on for months.

I believe he meant chrome/firefox/internet explorer?

Anyone notice how gun game completely wrecks your loadouts?

On the whole close quarters thing, I think it brings a nice balance to the game... I usually start off with some close quarters then move onto some regular conquest.

as for hit reg, I find it is always the same guys who tank my shots... now I don't wanna call hacks but there is definitely some tweaking going on...
