Based on this trailer your vision will be cutting to static every three seconds, which might be problematic.
Real Post: That trailer told us JACK SHIT, due to the aforementioned static. If you're gonna title something "GAMEPLAY DEBUT" show us some fucking gameplay instead of clips shorter than most .gifs I've seen cut with mostly black static screens.

It's more of an "in-engine" trailer. Or more specifically, a HYPE trailer.
Just wait till GDC for the actual meat. I'm sure they'll be releasing tons of info then. DICE is pretty proud of its tech, and I'm sure they can't wait to show it off.
I PMed That Guy to find out about the server bill. I mean, as of 1 week ago, he didn't need anymore money. Not sure why he wants to cancel it.
I saw a badge for all the bronze stars. Does this mean for everything? Like, all vehicles as well as guns and attachments? Cause that is a crapton of stuff.

I just got the latest bill in my email yesterday. Before, I had enough donations to cover the bill, but they have been exhausted. Currently we have due 25 bucks before March 10th. I figured there was not much demand for a dedicated PA server anymore, but I would be more than happy to keep the server going for as long as there is interest.

I'll convince the wife and chip in ten or so in a week or so (before the 10th).
I'll see you folks tonight on the server.

Is there some glitch that allows a bomb to be placed right away on Rush maps? One time I planted the bomb instantly by double tapping 'E', and earlier today I saw someone run up, place the bomb and shot me in the face with a shotgun.

Yes it's a glitch, completely random. It also happens when disarming mcoms as well.
Wake is kind of terrible outside of BF1942. In BF2 it was basically just a map for jets to practice bombing since the island was so narrow. And it won't even utilize destructibility that much since it only had a few huts, unless they're completely revamping it. I'd rather they bring a different 42 map back like Market Garden or Liberation of Caen.

I'm pretty sure this happens only when you've started arming or disarming an MCOM and died/it was finished arming by a teammate; ie, you try to arm one, fail somehow, then try and arm the next one and it starts where the previous attempt left off

Random BF3 Fact: Watch closely during the hotel scene and you can see the sniper's scope glint...
Ooh, that's good to hear. Might drastically reduce camping if sniper's positions are given away constantly. Hopefully that will mean a lot less of them.
So 24 players in the console version. I like my 32 players, thank you.
Actually, I'd like 64, but whatevs.

So after using nothing but shithouse weaponry for about two months, trying to Platinum star every gun (including the M9-3R burst pistol, the worst piece of shit ever to exist), I was forced to revert back to my arse-kicking kit. The enemy team rolled us round after round, calling us pussies, chumps, and limpdicks. Then they called me on my gunplay.
Shit just got real.
The extra grenades, M1911, AEK 971, the 40mm shotgun and the magnum ammo came out.
Turns out after months of delivering sustained and brutal beatings with such trash as the 40mm smoke launcher and the M9-3R, I've become pretty fucking good at this game.
We were playing White PAss Rush (the worst map) and I was on Defenders. The attacking team, cocky arsewipes that they were, decided to all bunk up in the L-Shaped building beside the overhang on the second point. I ran for the door, lobbed a grenade up the stairs, entered the stairwell and put a burst of AEK bullets into the douchebag standing directly at the top of the stairs. I ducked back under, avoiding the ensuing random full-auto gunfire, then stepped back in, throwing my remaining grenade. I turned and blasted one motherfucker sitting behind the railing with my underslung shotgun, then swapped to the M1911 and wasted two of his mates crouched there with him. I had completely forgotten just how insanely damaging that gun is.
I was called a hacker for my troubles and about four people quit.
I think the grenade halved the health of everyone else in that roof as well. My squad traipsed up there and wasted them all, anyway.
There's a 24/7 Oasis conquest server, usually some pretty good games there. Not home now though, so I can't tell you which one it is exactly. I guess it shows up with "Oasis" in the name filter.

I've found a couple, one with "Vir" in the name that is almost always full, and another that's some variation of "OldMenGaming" which I assume has Eurocentric peak times since it's in Germany so it usually has spots open but still pings low for me here on the East Coast.
I was Recon-Saiga'ing it up tonight and it was great. Well-placed mortars can be so deadly on that map but no one ever seems to expect to be mortared on it for some reason. :twisted:

A friend of mine recommended this game to me and I'd like to get it, though I have one question. I'm currently living in East Asia, so I'm a bit concerned about servers. Does anyone know if there are any asian or aussie servers?

There are plenty of Aussie servers and I've occasionally searched for Asian ones while our net was on the fritz. Plenty came up there too. Finding servers isn't really a problem. Finding intelligent people who play this is :P
Played a couple of rounds on Oasis rush, and the opposing team absolutely tore us a new one. By the second set of objectives they had 2 apaches in the air and 3 tanks on the ground, and were spawn killing us - literally. They must have figured out the 2 spawn points for the defenders as they had a squad at each point making a square and firing full-auto into the centre of the square.
So airborn slaughter and spawn rape. Felt just like BF2. Was just missing the dolphin diving (bunny-hopping still very much in vogue).
So theres been some mention of bullet drop with the x12 sniper scope. How is it different? Maybe this is why I am terrible with sniper rifles....I usually aim just above the head, but its hard for me to tell if Im going high or low since the game automatically zooms you out to clear the chamber or whatever.

It's just because with the x12 scope you can actually aim precisely enough that you notice the drop.
Anyway, I believe you can hold down the fire button to hold off on rechambering/whatever for a moment so you can see where the shot landed.
My main problem with the netcode is it's so inconsistent, I can have the same ping on several different servers and on one I can kill mans fine, on the other I'll shoot the guy 5 times in the chest at point blank and he'll turn around and shoot me in the face.
I've gotten that too, it seems to be server related and not the latency, as in the server is probably bogged down, so while your latency is alright, the server is running too slowly to handle requests quickly.
