    This is weird. My game is stuttering. Just started today. It runs at a smooth 60 frames but every once in a while (usually when I'm sprinting) it will freeze up for half a second. It does this a few times within a ten second frame and then goes back to normal for a while. Really obnoxious and it messes up my aim.

    Do you have a CPU with hyper-threading? If so, is it enabled? Try disabling it, I heard it can cause stuttering with BF3.

    I do not. And the game has been running perfectly fine for a week. This is the first time it's happened. And it was apparently happening to other people in the server I joined. But it also happened to me across multiple servers. So I don't know.

    Overclocking seems to have created stuttering issues for many people. If you do have an overclock going, try disabling it.

    My CPU isn't overclocked either.

    The stuttering is due to a server/punkbuster issues. Its happened before.

    Well, I feel like getting on for some games. Join me in mumble and we can find a server.

    Two teams of 12? So four tanks each? Man, I feel like they're fucking with us. We couldn't have double that? It'd be like an even more awesome game of World of Tanks.

    EA backend is shitting itself right now. All servers are laggy as hell.

    This game is really frustrating. I've never been this bad at a shooter. I never have any idea what's happening. I get shot from all angles, within seconds of spawning. Enemies seem like bullet sponges and I can't get a feel for any of the weapons.

    Try playing on a server with fewer people. I personally prefer the 32-player servers over the ones with 64. I find it less chaotic and more focused.

    It does seem to be down at the moment, however I have no actual information to offer. @DietarySupplement might have more.

  • That_GuyThat_Guy I don't wanna be that guy Registered User regular
    I can't log into my Branzone account to restart the server. I am copying the username and password directly out of the email that they sent me.

    I messaged Dietary.

    Well, I guess rank means something. :P I always feel like I'm underpowered and last night my friends and I accidentally logged into a unranked server. I tried some of the weapons you unlock and my k:d was 3:1.

    I'm rank 22, btw. :P

    But it's frustrating because my overall k:d is 0.67. Which is ridiculous. But oh well.

    Everyone should just try this:

    SPAS12, 6x scope, tac light, slugs.

    Pretty much the best gun in the game right there.

    Sorry for bailing on the dudebros last night. I had two peeps show me their best "nightcrawler with a knife" impression and it was time to stop before lag rage started.

    BF3 time on PC until the MechWarrior doodz get back from having lives. If anyone wants to join just join my server and berate me in the chat to get in mumble.

    Just played for an hour and a half with Ryke and now it's big tits all around. I'm excited for tonight to play with everyone else.

    Sorry, dude! I've noticed lag or just the client side hit detection a lot before too, and it is most suck-y. I'm surprised though, you and I should have similar connections as we are the farthest U.S. players from the server.

    I'm about to hop on Mumble if anyone is interested in killing mans. If not, I'll play some Borderlands.

    No biggie. It's only recently that this has started. I've had some issues telling me I couldn't join a server because I'm running the wrong "version" (I have Premium), and now lag is more prevalent recently. It may be because of the load on my router though. Moved in the wife and her router isn't really a high speed low drag type. I think it can't really handle a large load. What do the other dudebros use? I have an xbox slim, so any guys that have a slim and extra computers, what router do you use?

  • SatsumomoSatsumomo Rated PG! Registered User regular
    There was some backend issues in the weekend that caused lag for everyone, so it could be that.

  • shorttiminshorttimin regular Registered User regular
    Hmm, maybe that was it then. I know I wasn't the only guy to the get the "wrong version" thing. Just thought it was weird.

    So do many people still consider the USAS 12 to still be OP? I ran into a server that had an auto-kill for anyone using it. Like, isn't that a bit silly?

  • emp123emp123 Registered User regular
    Yeah, the USAS is terrible. Unless you were on a hardcore server, its pretty damn good on a hardcore server. I wouldnt say its as good as it was when the game first came out though.

  • That_GuyThat_Guy I don't wanna be that guy Registered User regular
    The USAS is OK, but has 2 or 3 (can't remember) fewer pellets than the 1014 and has only a marginally higher rate of fire.

    On another subject, I am mad jelly of the guys playing PS2 right now so I want to play some BF3 to get over it. Get on mumble with me and we can get a game going.

  • 0Replace4Displace0Replace4Displace The best girls are ships and guns. Registered User regular
    275 RPM is now only marginally higher than 220. Fun facts.

    The USAS got over-nerfed, and it is certainly the worst shotgun. The Jackhammer's new 12 round magazine and the extra pellet it has over the USAS make it superior for now.

    u4OkoEI.png
  • emp123emp123 Registered User regular
    Which says something about the USAS since the Jackhammer sucks.

  • TefTef Registered User regular
    What is a good shotgun?

    I've been using the m1014 which seems to work ok but I'm generally not a shotgun toting kind of a guy

    Would I be better off with the Saiga, SPAS12 or even the 870MCS?
