    How long have you owned yours?

    2nd December will be the 7th year I've owned it. Got mine from new as well. :) D.

    [PC/PS3/XB360] Battlefield 3 Official Thread

    Kinda. Did you ever do the co-op trials/challenges/whatever they are called on MW2? It's similar to that, except on the COD version, they had a kill tally and once you reached that, the level was over. The harder the difficulty, the more of them there were, or the time allocated got reduced...

    PMSL! Quote of The Thread - imo. :cool: Really liked co-op mode last night when I teamed up with a m8 of mine for a few rounds. The bipod extension is a brilliant addition to the lying prone position - reducing panning movements, but allowing for greater accuracy. Good to see when devs add...

    SLi + Physx + i7 CPU?

    Cool. Will do. :) I might do a few benchies to see the difference overall as well. Cheers, D.

    SLi + Physx + i7 CPU?

    Chaps - what's the consensus regarding the Physx settings within the nVidia control panel when using SLi? It appears that you can set the Physx primarily to either nVidia card in the SLi setup. Or, leave it solely in the possession of the CPU to handle. Are there any pros/cons of a particular...

    Look at my post a while back - I had the same issue. Stupid, imo - I ended up downloading it too.... :( D.

    I'm sticking in an identical twin tomorrow for SLi. As the first GTX460 was a hand-me-down, I don't think getting an SLi setup for the circa £140 the next card will cost me is too bad overall.... :) D.

    I think I know where you're coming from. At times, even though it does look impressive on the face of it - the landscape reminds me a lot of Battlefield 1942 on the El Alamein map. I guess they haven't got the uncapped source of PC graphics cards to manipulate either. The shareholders point is...

    I must admit - I feel the SP campaign is very frustrating at times - certainly more so than the likes of BC2, etc. I can't quite put my finger on what it is - but I'll still plough on regardless. :) D.

    I'm enjoying it now that I can actually map the mouse controls properly! Turns out that you can only change them from the main menu. Holdng down the Esc key for about 3-4 seconds does actually remove the key binding. Do that in-game though (and bizarrely, just on the mouse) - and it doesn't...

    The SP campaign isn't as polished as Infinity Ward's offerings, but its still enjoyable all the same. Some funny bits in it where 'squad' members repeatedly die on the same spot! They get killed up ahead of you and when you reach that spot, you'll suddenly hear two or three 'urghs' and their...

    On first impressions - it does seem a tad silly with unlimited ammo. Not tried MP yet, so I don't know what the mortar's like. D.

    Tbf - COD single player campaigns are superb. Unfortunately many people bypass them and go for the woefully flawed MP side of things instead. Such a shame as they are really missing out, imo. D.

    Except the bizarrely short corpse-stay time. Shoot an enemy dead, start walking forward and before you get near him, he disappears and a pool of blood remains. I can understand it with hundreds of enemies for the sake of preserving in-game RAM - but for one or two? D.

    I'll need to get further into this - but so far, it doesn't feel like a Battlefield game. I'm not saying that's a good or a bad thing - it's just different? D.

    [PC/PS3/XB360] Battlefield 3 Official Thread

    All mine are working too. Except everything on the mouse is what DICE wants it to be - not me. I seriously do laugh at stuff like this. The most fundamental core function of a game genre that has worked fine for decades (i.e. players changing inputs to what they like), now appears to be an...

    PMSL - what the hell have they done to the control inputs?! I've currently got 5 (yes, 5) inputs set to the right mouse button?! :S "Hold Esc to clear this binding". For how long? Three hours? Utter lolz. You been doing this for years, gentlemen. At least get the bloody basics right..... D.

    Re: Hi guys new to the forum, Just brought a 182 an would like a few tips To be fair, what Tony says is very true. The Renault peeps did an alright job on the 182 - straight out of the box. In nearly 7 years of ownership of mine, I've swapped out the air filter, replaced the springs with a set...

    Forza 4

    Is there anyway of defaulting the yellow button that displays the stats of the car so that it stays on useful numbers? Having a car with Handling of 4.7 and Acceleration of 5.5 means absolutely nothing. I'm getting a little tired of having to keep pressing 'Y' to see the true stats on cars! D.

    bg front grill

    The grey really lets the front end down. I might do that to mine tbh. Did you primer the grille up first, or simply spray it with plastic paint? D.

    I wish I knew more (read - anything) about football as I'd be on this, no messing. The only footy manager game I put a lot of time into was the original Football Manager by Kevin Toms/Thomas (?) - back on the 'ol BBC Micro at school. I was a bit pissed at the time how the computer science...
