BF3 PC Patch on Dec 6th

All this breathing is good and all...

But the air needs nerfing.

So does the ground.

And the little rocks on the ground? Nerf 'em down good.

They are fixing stability when the most recent patch that came out increased the 'bf3.exe has stopped working' error. They are adding additional stability?

This.

I hope by adding additional stability, what they mean is "We are fixing the errors that cause a majority of you to not be able to play without crashing every 10 minutes, or during map switches"
 
they should have added more range to stingers, way to short range, and faster lockon, its terrible.
 
Fixed for surveillance ribbon not counting TUGS
ABOUT TIME!!!
Reduced the damage done to Armored Vehicles and Infantry from AA guns.
Increased the range and FOV for designating targets with the SOFLAM and vehicle Laser Designators.
Nice
Flares reload times for Jets and Helicopter Gunners have been increased.
Truly Happy Days.

So the new chat box is nice.....but there is still no way to bring it up without typing something....:cursing:
 
what!? really....i cant try this out as i am at work atm:( but does "h" toggle the chat also?

Also I found this list of undocumented changes (Will update list as they become known):

  • 'H' key now changes chat between the following options:
-Hidden (chat does not come up ever)
-Pop-up (old styled pop up when chat is active)
-On (always on)
  • Vehicle sensitivity slider is now in options
  • Icons/names now flash when using 'Q'
  • Disable threshold reduced to around 37hp for air vehicles [more info on ground vehicles needed]
  • Tower on Caspian now collapses near the end of rounds
  • Player pings now displayed on the scoreboard (your own is not)
  • No longer spawn at main when spawn selection is unavailable [needs confirmation]
  • Console Command: UI.DrawEnable 0 actually turns the HUD off now
  • Coop requirements for unlocks lowered:
    Old vs. New
    MP412 REX: Old - 63,000 New - 5000
    KH2002: Old - 126,000 New - 17000
    MP7: Old - 189,000 New - 34000
    M39 EMR: Old - 252,000 New - 58000
    93R: Old - 315,000 New - 85000
    SG553: Old - 378,000 New - 120000
    G3A3: Old - 441,000 New - 160000
Unconfirmed:
  • You can now get a mutual kill when you fire the killing round at the same time.
  • Claymores no longer disappears after death.
New bugs:
  • Players now spawn on top of jet when selecting jet spawn that has been taken.

yeah i just notice about coop unlock i got it all unlock and funny it i didn't get my coop service star
 
So far I like the changes... but I found a weird crash that I experienced before, spawning into a jet on firestorm just crashed my game twice...
 
I think this patch is broke. I was getting around 80-120 fps and now i get 40-65 fps, that's with only updating to the new patch. Also, when i click to join a server it doesnt ever join it it just says "loading level" and the only way that i can join is to click in the task bar BF3. Another thing is when i actually get into a game now i get a black screen on some servers, and i cant click on anything but i hear in-game sounds through my black screen. I haven't had a problem at all with this game until now.
 
I like the AN-94 chance. I had like 30 kills before the patch and hated the gun. Now when I used it I went 73 kills - 3 death (lots of death saved b/c of revives). This gun is useful now and might just become my choice over KH2k.

The 20 sec mine settings sucks but I'm glad it's just temporary. Mines are pretty useless now (takes what 2 to kill a tank?). Nobody died from those because of thermal vision anyway.

12 Frag...idk. I used it lot but I've yet to try it out to see how much they nerfed it.

I approve Tact light nerf

IRNV seems useless now. I didn't use and didn't care about it before much either.


Overall, I like this patch. I like it lot better than the first patch they send out. I hope these two issues get addressed in next update:

(1) put G3 back to it's former glory
(2) fix silencer bug on guns such as AS Val. I really like AS Val as it is but a working silencer effect would be awesome.
 
After having played with the patch, I like the changes I see.

But... my game crashes more now than it ever has before, I have had probably 7 or 8 crashes today. I wish they would fix this.
 
Thank the DICE for making the IRNV useless.

I feel much better now.
