Battlefield 3 General Discussion Thread

Could I ask how many people you have seen affected? Where are they saying this, battlelog forums?

someone on OCN suggested you try manually updating directx. did you give that a shot? hopefully it works.
 
ahh i need another korean proxy to use! the one listed above isnt working :\

but atleast i have all day to try it out :)
 
Funny that people found a way to play early. I'll see what I can do.
 
Just played two rounds in the night map. Ultra settings @ 1920x1080 with 2 6870. Stupidly fun mayhem.
 
You can also play early if you get the unencrypted .exe from someone who has already.

lets get this zipped up and try it

I'm guessing there is more to it than that though, there is a .lic file that gets created for your key.
 
I did it! Unlocked and good to go :D

(1) Control Panel --> Internet Options --> Connections --> Lan Settings --> Check "Use a proxy server"
Type this Korean Info: 203.232.208.116 port 8080

(2) Run Origin and unlock the game.

(3) Go back and remove the Korean proxy and now you should be able to fully play in USA servers :D

Holy shit. It worked!

I made sure Origin was offline first and followed these instructions to the letter.

Guess I know what I'm doing when I get back from real life responsibilities later today.

If I could I'd +1 rep you all the way for this!

wow it worked, thanks!!!!
 
Crap, getting the crash in Eyefinity mode but single display works. Dang I need Eyefinity!
 
wtf, I hope there is a way around having to watch the 45 minute logo intro every time you flipping launch the game. Pressing keys doesn't bypass them.

I hate developers who put in mandatory logo watching.
 
Wow im a happy mofo today! 80 FPS maxed out at 1920X1080.. game is awesome!! Think i might be coming down with a cold, might have to take off tomorrow. ;)
 
realllllllly disappointed in the eyefinity performance -- probably gonna have to upgrade yet again

omfg? I LOVE YOU
 
omfg? I LOVE YOU

Seriously, me too. xXxDieselxXx You deserve big time props.


Messing around in single player right now. Even that's impressing me. Online is a little bitchy right now but that's to be expected considering I'm the Eastern USA. ;)

Is it safe to do this? Won't get you banned or anything like that, right? I'm tempted to try it.
 
LOL, I can't believe they're cool with this.

With the console release hacked and playable online days ago and the pc release getting leaked..what was it...12 days ago? There's really nothing more they can do to combat this. The game is obviously fully patched (included in pre-load) so there's really no need to not be cool with it.
