22 nov patch

I'm betting it is coming. Though I think they could just make them less accurate rather then nerfing the damage. All 3 of them are sniper rifle accurate atm, even if the G3 is supposed to be.

The stingers needed a nerf vs choppers actually. On certain maps you couldn't use the choppers at all if the other team had 1 or two ppl with stinger. Me and Kake used stingers a whole round while getting resupplied. The choppers couldn't go near the battle without getting shot down. On the other hand, you probably won't be able to do much to an aircraft with 1 person now. I'm just happy they fixed the physics of AA impact. No more suddenly being upside-down in the chopper from a couple of shots. We don't have regen on our server anymore though, so it should weigh up for the nerf.

I tested it with a bud last night, it now takes up to 4 stingers to take down a attack chopper... :/ guess they just overdid that damage decrease

Is that with or without regen though? I'm guessing you still can kill the pilot/gunner(s) with a single missile hit on critical areas? I also found out that you can kill the pilot though the glass on a chopper with a sniper rifle, but not on the Hummer... Also keep in mind that if the chopper uses fire extinguisher it will go back up to about 40-50% hp.

Thats with regen, so yeah its harder, but then again on most maps you can easily get to cover and rep, but yeah certain maps you just cant, and on those maps i guess the nerf is fine

Hi,

R9 has created a number of issues for server admins. They key ones so far have been these 4:

1) Servers disappearing from Battlelog. This is not directly related to  R9 and was a bug introduced during EA maintenance on Tuesday morning by  the Battlelog team. Battlelog is a front-end system that pulls and  displays data from the Blaze database back-end. Apparently, the  Battlelog team have now corrected this issue.

2) vars.idleTimeout: This one seems to be the source of much frustration  and we and many other RSPs have brought this to the attention of DICE  for review in R10. Either the timeout will be increased (most likely) or  it'll be allowed to be removed.

3) vars.roundStartPlayerCount: In R9, this var has been hard-coded to a  minimum of 4 for ranked game servers. Originally DICE wanted a minimum  of 8 but reduced this to 4 after RSPs complained. This is again under  review for R10 but I suspect 4 will remain the min.

4) Frozen in place pre-round: This is again under review and has been  since beta. Hopefully this will be corrected soon but no eta just yet.

General issue

5) Server crashes: We and many other RSP's having been driving this is  as the number one issue with BF3 since the retail launch. Although many  bugs have been fixed, servers are still quite unstable and can crash  between 1-4 times a day, on average. DICE are hard at work trying to  resolve bugs and the server build should become increasingly stable as  updates are released.

Found a cure: all on "LOW" and it plays; feel s abit like CSCZ, but at least I get to shoot you :-)
So now the Q: should I upgrade my ATI from 4790, or need I change my whole PC (based on E8400)?

                                    Hi,

DICE have released Server Update R10 v2 with the following changes:

- vars.idleTimeout and vars.idleBanRounds commands are now controllable on ranked servers

- Crashfix when a player is reviving another player

R10 v2 can be installed by logging into the Game Panel and going to Game  Servers > BF3 > Game Updates and R10 v2 is available there.

Please note: We will force all BF3 Game Servers to R10 v2 by mid afternoon Friday, 25th November.

A bit borderland that one, but a newer generation cpu and memory with a 67xx ati would be better then spending about the same amount on a top en gfx like 6990 ati or 580 nivida, thinking Intel i7 2500k, 8gb fast memory and a 6970 would be enough to run all on max with about 1680x1050 resolution ( have i7 2600k, 4gb memory (too little, runs on 95% usage) and 6970 2gb and everything on max gets me about 65-70 fps as a lowest average on 1680x1050)

So you can now play Battlefield 3??

By low you mean the grafics.

Will try this.

Ninja the update you mean is for the servers? Not for my pc isn't it
