I think its permanent, from what Ive been reading and people pulling out voting campaigns (petitions) for them to fix it. The option you couldn't remember was "co-op" Blue, its got Multiplayer, Singleplayer and Co-op. Its not a big deal but I dislike having shit running in the background that I don't need and having to quit the game/session just to switch multiplayer maps is something that I feel is a bad user-interface/workflow decision, that along with something that shouldn't be too hard to integrate making it feel like they're rushing the game out also to meet the deadline in some ways. |

Also, I made a platoon for OSG, add me to your 'comm centre' in the browser based crap (which is stupid since you're already on my Origin friends for some reason it doesn't port them into the comm centre). I'll invite you into the platoon, when the games released it'll prob make it easier to play together I guess - join squads together etc etc. |

You mean appear offline? Ive tried the alternating options but when i click your profile Branden it just shows your page with profile locked and then says "request sent" greyed out so I couldn't send you a request if I wanted to. It does seem a bit shit this Origin app, even inviting you all to the Platoon, I can't do unless (i think) you're all on my "com centre" tab within the silly BF3 browser based entry point. If I go to add you, it does show that its found 7 ppl on my origin list, and that I'm friends with you all but won't let me invite you to the platoon I guess until I see you online in the same area. Adding you manually doesn't work either. I made Blitz a leader of the squad so he may be able to invite you should Blitz see you online as well. Edited by JAMSIN, Monday Oct 3 2011, 02:59 PM.

Well this is bullshit... http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-10-03-battlefield-3-dice-warns-of-origin-bans Basically they've said if you go on unofficial servers it may mess with your stats, then you get banned, then ANY game you have linked to your origin account will be unavailable I have no problem with banning cheaters, but from what I recall every server had some stupid name like AU hewhedihe 19028 (probably more proper words, but you get my drift). How the fuck are you supposed to know for certain a server is official? I hope I'm just missing something... |

Hm.. surely unofficial servers wouldn't show up in their shitty browser based thing, and how do we know which are unofficial as to me, none of these servers are PunkBuster enabled and they're all ranked according to the icon in the listing. I usually join the AU Gameservers.com or AU Sydney Hypernia.com (iinet) or AU GameArena ones, typically these are all Aus hosted ISP's like Telstra I know is GameArena. Banning peoples entire Origin account seems stupid. What it sounds like to me is "our battlefield/log browser based thing is fucking shit and useless and may at random cause glitches and exploits that are our fault but we'll just blame you using so called 'dodgy servers' when you're not really and claim to ban you're entire account should we deem necessary or if it happens by accident at least we've covered our asses" |

But reading the BF3 forums in general the consensus seems they're complaining about BF3 overall for the lack of commander role (like in BF2) through to no squad control/creation and more. What with (people claiming) they're cancelling their pre-orders for this. Pretty much sounds like they fucked BF3 completely and dumbed it down for the masses rather than keeping it true to a sequel to BF2. Some things I did notice originally as mentioned which were lack of squad based tools/creation and the commander role which was handy in BF2, not that its a big deal to me but when they claim they made it teamwork based it does seem like it lacks any teamwork really when playing people are running wildly around and it ends up being just like another CoD clone - though I'll reserve that thought more when its released rather than basing it on the buggy beta and hope they actually fix these issues people are responding to, most are just complaints but some are valid points. |

Really? I can see why people might be quick to jump on the 'Its just not True battlefield' so soon, but honestly they've gone with a poor map choice for the beta. 'Rush' is a bad company mode (or BF2142 if you wanna go origin) and it is a hallway'ish map. When we get a chance to really stretch our legs on a full scale open warfare map with air and ground vehicles it would defiantly start to feel more like bf As for the things that have been cut, probably not the best decisions. I never really did the commander role but I never really recalled anyone using it seriously to co-ordinate teams, more just to get mortar strike kills. |
