Sooooo a bit of a performance related question, should I have any trouble running the game with an intel core 2 duo, ati radeon 5850, and 4 gigs of ram?

I think you'll be fine with those specs, but of course it depends on what C2D you've got. I can manage 1080p with high settings on a similar rig. The only issue I get is some random stuttering and I haven't yet managed to find a way to fix it.

I can run it with a core 2 duo, GTS 450, and 3gb of ram. If anything you're probably going to get better performance than me.

I think that's the main problem with Métro to be honest, people group up too much hoping to use teammates as cover. Causing people to fire explosives at the human clusterfuck that forms in every corridor.

Every time I've played Métro, I keep out of the way of groups of teammates. And unsurprisingly, I don't die from explosives on a regular basis. It's a fun map, a very linear map, but fun. As long as you stop bunching up with teammates for no real reason.

**Raidyr** · 9th April 2012

32 player Metro is actually p fun, though I still think it's a poorly designed map.

24 player Metro is even more fun.

The Stills · 9th April 2012

I dunno, I play the game on PS3 and conquest Metro is still a massive imbalanced clusterfuck even with only 24 players.

Rush Metro on the other hand is good fun.

I love this so much, since the latest patch, I can't play at all, the mouse lag is so heavy it's like the mouse is stuck in some slow-motion, or it doesn't respond at all for some seconds... I had no problems like this at all at launch, what the hell did they do in these patches?

[Solar]Inferno · 9th April 2012

If I join the tide of players uselessly trying to throw grenades, spam shotguns/M320's in the halls on Op Metro, I find it annoying, and just one big point grabbing fest. But, if I play the game in a style that I like; flanking the enemy from behind, either at the bottom/top of the escalators or behind the opposing team in the halls, I find it good fun, but still getting me a decent amount of points.

I'm baaaack.

I bet no one from the Battlefield V3 thread is still here.

**FreddiRox!** · 9th April 2012

Colour blind mode is truly awful.

I'm red green colour deficient and it makes it harder for me to play with it on

when I play kharg I'm always doing this

but it's enemy vehicles

they'll roll up in an ITV and the gunner's popping away and suddenly his ITV stops and he starts shooting in every direction

such an easy double kill

**JohanGS** · 9th April 2012

People on the same team though, like when they go out to repair

**Protocol7** · 9th April 2012

well you're probably better than them with the vehicle so whatever

And your taste in wubs could be improved. Not saying that's a bad song, it's just not really good.

Okay, thanks. I chose the song because it sounds a bit like an engine, and I thought it would fit well to the video. Might just be me, lol.

**Sharker** · 9th April 2012

Well when I repair my vehicle I usually want someone to get in just to make sure no one else steals it/they cover me, just so long as they let me get in the driver seat after I'm done.

**Akasori** · 9th April 2012

Haha, just played a round of TDM. I didn't know if we were winning or losing, but just before the end of the round I threw a grenade and someone happened to run right into it.
The round ended as the grenade exploded and the game displayed "YOUR TEAM HAS WON".

It was nice.

**Thunderbolt** · 9th April 2012

Are you guys tired of longass load times on vanilla maps?

WELL I HAVE FOUND THE SOLUTION GOD DAMN HOLY SHIT

(you'll need a 12+GB flash drive for this)

Download awxLink and install it
If the installer gets stuck at "finishing installing", force close it, open elevated command prompt and type
Regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\arniWORX\awxLink\awxLink.dll"

Now go to your BF3 directory, cut /Data/ and paste it onto your flash drive

Right click drag Data from your flash drive to BF3 directory again, select "create junction point here" from the context menu

Rename "Junction Point to Data" to just "Data"

Join a server and be amazed

My game used to load so slowly, that most of the time I missed the first two Rush objectives
After doing this, I load first
I'm not even kidding, it works THAT well
And I'm using a Kingston DataTraveler G3 16GB, which isn't even that fast

Wow I'm getting rated dumb for trying to help people
