Got BF3 today. First impression: wtf. Buggiest game I ever played; only 1 out of 5 attempts to join a server works, game crashes randomly, dead people tend to 'freeze' and look like if they are alive, random (once per few rounds) non-latency lag.
Most of the servers are 32 or 64 people playing Conquest with or without vehicles. With vehicles the game is dead boring as only the ones that get in them get to be the game changers, without vehicles the game is full of goddamn actual campers. Respawn options suck: I either respawn up ass and run 30s to the battlefield or respawn on a squad member and get pinned down. Respawning on flag is an almost certain death to campers ;/
Ooh, and to get a sensible sniper rifle I need to play with a crappy, 3-4 shots-to-kill rifle. Shotgun is really fun though.
Hope my impression changes, cos I just ragequit after the last crash.
I had issues like this.
First, what graphics card do you have currently? This game made me realize I need to update mine (Geforce 9800 GT. I know! I know! I should have known better!)
Second.. Are your drivers up to date? As in... have you updated them within the past two weeks? that made a big difference for me as well.
Either way, good luck working all the problems out. The game is fantastic once you get past them.
