The chopper needs to get targeted by a soflam or citv first.

I don't know what to think of the remade maps.  I like being able to see across Karkand now...

Anyone else notice a bit more lag?

Currently downloading the update and maps for xbox. I'm so tired of the vanilla maps, I'm stoked to see what Karkand is like.
Also, 2GB for maps and bug fixes? That is insane. They should have had most of these problems fixed before the game was even released.

the flag radius went back to bf2 style with these maps. i've only played sharqi and karkand though. they really shouldn't have messed with the fog. half the team spawns sniper and either camp the crane/tv station.

Oh I do. They should have waited and polished it up a bit. Though, my patience was running thin as I was waiting for the release lol.

I was stoked for BF3, yet I play Skyrim more, a game I said I would never buy.

Prepare to listen to all the bitching about the B2K maps from the people that have never played it. There's so much complaining going on about these maps in Battlelog it's sick.

Also, prepare to see a lot of dumbasses running around with their heads chopped off on Conquest Assault mode. Nobody knows that you have to keep capping the CPs to win the round. I was the only one doing it earlier today, it's amazing.

I like holding an advantage over the people who have never played BF2 before. We already know all the good spots in Karkand and Sharqi and Oman, etc. It'll be a joy killing the people who have no idea where they are going on these maps.

All this time I thought the shitty maps were the major problem with the game. I knew it had balance issues and shitty gameplay, but I still blamed it all on the maps.

After playing a round on Oman, I finally realize how truly fucked up a lot of this game is.

Origin is imploding too what the fucking fuck is this bullshit. I've always been apathetic to it. Whatever, start it up, run it in the background. Didn't bother me, and never had any problems.

And now it's telling me my password is wrong, I can't authenticate or connect to the Origin servers, blah blah. Can't even play this shitty game if I wanted to.

It's amazing how a map with 7 or 8 flags spread across wide distances can still manage to be such a clusterfuck with just 32 people. DICE is blowing my mind. They need some sort of industry innovation award for this.

yoda you're way too forgiving/fanboyish for games. "oh well i'll play it tomorrow" in reaction to a product that you paid for IN ADVANCE about 6 weeks ago. it's just incompetence. unable to authenticate a user logging onto the network? jesus fucking christ. i don't even want to know how bad the maps are themselves if they can't even run a network.

Logged in and played first try but all local servers are empty.  Drove around on Karkand, made me want to reinstall BF2.

Is it me or the contrast in karkand is stronger than regular bf3 maps?
I can't see anything.

I wish I could say that was an exaggeration but it is completely serious.
