Hey all!

I was just wondering how smoothly the game runs for you to see if my issues where because of my computer/internetconnection or if they are general issues.

I find that I have a very rought time getting intoservers and staying on them.
I rarely can play for more then 5 min before I crash out or get logged out or something and itīs even harder to get in.
Once Iīm in I donīt have many issues, some lag occasionally since Iīm on a mobile 3G connection but my computer can handle BF3 as far as I can sense and see.

So is anyone else experience the same thing or is it just me? I got a thought that it might be my internetconnection thats causing the issues but not sure.

I have already installed the graphic drivers for my card and my specs are a fair bit above minimum req but not recommended on all

Thanks

Don't have that problem that you are having. It sound that it might be your 3G connection problem

yeah maybe but did make some progress by manually adding origin.exe to my firewall exceptions, apperently windows did not do this on its one, hence the hard time getting into servers

I have to start in windowed mode and play a bit, and when it runs smoothly i can try and switch to full screen.

Hicky had the same issue. But he fixed it by turning off his antivirus. I think it was called bullgard or somehting

Thats to bad Phys!
I donīt have marrige or girlfriend issues but I also need to upgrade.
Have ordered more RAM now since I only have 2 Gb and it just barely is enough.
Will then get a quadcore CPU and install a 64bit OS
Finally Iīll try to get a 4G mobile internet instead of the 3G i have now
and then I should be ready for BF3

I know where you are coming from phys... I've been there. Ended up divorcing anyway coz we "grew apart" to use her words. She just liked to watch shite on tv aswel.
I got a solution though, you can put your pc in the living room so you will at least be in the same room. It's not the ideal solution coz then she will complain that you make to much noise and you don't pay her enough attention and.. and... Women...
