Myself Eeth and Doui already playing, if you can't wait like we couldn't...heres a bypass for the release date check.

http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield3/comments/ln794/play_bf3_now_vpn_instructions/


make sure to remove proxy once check is done.


Tried setting up a proxy but the release date seems to be hardwired into the code for the game. Can't get past the release date check. Any advice?

No Steam? = Fuck Them!

I'm standing by my promise.

Yeah... It's weird.  You start the game from Origin, then it takes you to a page in your browser where you decide whether you want to play Multi, Co-op, or Campaign.  You start the appropriate game mode from the webpage...  The setup is wonky.

Setup is definitely out of the norm, but i think it works very well integrated with its battlelog page.  From the same spot you launch the game, you can track stats, make parties who if join a game together get put in same squad, have access to forums for research/discussion and manage platoons (clans/guilds).

Although my favorite use is to keep track of my unlocks for what new piece of shiny I'm getting next.

I didn't like how it was setup in the Beta, and I was hoping it was just a placeholder. I guess I was wrong.

I may hold off on buying for a while.

Having some difficulties getting the game to run. Keep getting an error message telling me to reinstall. Tried that but same thing keeps happening. I think it may be because I don't have directx 11 installed. Now I'm having difficulties witt. I can't get directx 11 installed it keeps saying it's up to date although dxdiag says I have directx 10. Trying windows update now. Hopefully I didn't waste $60.

So after hours of troubleshooting I finally get the game up and running... if you can call it that. The game is completely unplayable even on the lowest settings. Looks like I'll be picking it up for xbox until I can afford a better rig.

Started on the campaign mode last night. This game is stunning in its audio/visual effects. My wife did a double take because she thought I was watching a movie at first. The F-18 sequence had incredible attention to detail (even though I was just the NFO), I have to show my brother (F-18 pilot).

Yeah, I have it for 360, and when you first start up it asks you if you want to download the high-quality HD pack - about another 1.5gb. Looks amazing. I only played a bit of the campaign - I actually had problems getting past clearing tje area after the earthquake so switched to Multiplayer.

It's fun, but holy hell do I suck at MP. Still haven't really gotten the hang of flight mechanics on a controller.
