Big day for BF3 tomorrow

[davison-burns]

With ps3 getting voip fix. Not played in ages because of input lag and voip problems, so I'm looking forward to tomorrow, fingers crossed input lag fix is on the way. Anybody else looking forward to tomorrow and being able to to talk to squad mates?

I would laugh my socks off if after update VOIP will still be broken or they break something else. Impossibru?

You didn't like that random win/lost screen n BC2? I thought it was exciting and made outcome of game unpredictable.

I thought updates came out on Tuesdays...

Nice Mortars are getting fixed so you cant deploy them in your own spawn.
+1 for DICE

[King_Kevin97]

Its crucial. As well as input lag, if it isn't fully, properly fixed for EVERYONE, the game is double the amount of lalalalaed that it is now.

Wait what? Source?

If true it is stupid because of the big arch Mortars create. Unless they make it so you can shoot it right up and kill yourself, limiting the area it can be used is another stupid idea.

I read somewhere they were altering the firing rate of the USAS, a reduction obviously, well, the USAS will become useless because its firing rate is not the problem.

A reduction only when you have frags equipped.

Doesn't say you won't be able to set it in the base though.

[Orcacam07]

Good to see. Trust me when I tell you proper VoIP changes the game entirely.

Communicating with some good friends on Xbox can make it very, very fun.

Mortars not being usable in home bases anymore? Meh. Nobody is gonna use them in Rush anymore unless they expect to be annihilated.

CQ though I like the idea. Maybe now flags will have a tactical purpose: Capping an outpost means setting up a mortar pit.

It does say this though on my first link to mp1st "Mortars in have always been a controversial feature in Battlefield 3. Fans have been pleading that players should be unable set up mortars while in their own spawn where they could quite easily be unreachable. DICE has recently stated that it “will be fixed in next patch.”

Still doesn't say it and the link leads to nowhere concrete.

If the input lag is not fixed I will continue to not play. Pants are around my ankles DICE, would you like me to get the lube?

its not only the amount of splash damage that is the problem, its also the way that frag rounds (when aiming) form a singular projectle which can travel and kill halfway across the map, with far to much ease.

[davison-burns]

Anybody got a quick update on whats happening with the voip patch, I wont be home till later, Is it there? Is it working?

[xll_GeNoCiDe_llx]

VOiP works, games still cr@p though cos they ain't fixed input lag.
