It's really shaky and offset on my single 8800 but kinda manageable if you get the advantage on the dude first. But if anyone does get the game you can find me on Origin as - Zephrim. Been playing it off and on lately. I think they did a good job with it, love the maps.

Well, I'm playing it, and it's not a 'heard' type of thing.. Bf3 just rocks, the graphics are out of this world, and completely shits on mw3.. Which is just a cheap remake of mw2, but all in all, as hard as I get owned in that game - it's an amazing game

What do you mean not a 'heard of type of thing'? Everyone I've talked to says it has a s**t-ton of glitches, the kits are dumbed down from bf2 making the game less interesting, new gametypes are meh, etc. I watched some of my friends play it for a bit, it looked alright though.

mw3 is garbage, but that's really no surprise since there hasn't been a decent cod game since mw1

I miss bf2 quite a bit. BF3 does have some glitches, I've experienced a few a couple of times. I liked the versatility of classes coming from bf2 over just 4 classes in bf3. Can't quite pin the feeling of comparison between the two just yet. Some things I like then others I don't, but the game in entirety is good. Looking forward to the expansion pack with the bf2 maps

Derrick, what is your take on it, must buy, or not so much ?

What kind of CPU/GPU's are you running it on ?

I love the game, wouldn't say it's a must buy but it's hella fun. 90Milla has some really good videos up.. That expansion pack with Karkand, Wake, Oman & Sharqi is going to be awesome. Comes out the 6th of this month.

Derrick, I'm still gaming (when I can) on my now dated rig, with SLI 8800GT's OC'd. You said on your single 88 it was choppy ?? You think two 88's OC'd would work ?

Possibly it'll probably still have low fps in a lot of areas. Yeah that's the expansion pack

-with my 8800gt I was averaging 10-20fps in all low settings and it felt like it was starting to die after a months use. With the 560ti in high settings i'm averaging 40-60fps. Not sure how much of a difference the sli will make
