another rant about Battlefield 3
Thanks God I haven't bought it... well almost, got it from recent Humble Bundle.
And OMG what the thing is that battlelog?! Server browser - then launch a game.

And well is it me only??? I can find only ALL SAME 5 servers everyday in the whole world
constantly running "operation metro" or "canals" with ping above 200.
Are all servers already dead? After 2 years. What a joke, EA, DiCE

Edit1: fixed problem with servers, there are more than 5. Apologies.

My brother has no problem finding a game. Ever. About 60-100 ping for the ones he does find. Most servers are premium DLC maps though. From what Ive seen.

Exactly.
See, if you put aside all premium content, the "one map only over ninethousand tickets lel" and some really crappy servers, plus try to have at least a halfway decent ping of less than 200 you're down to no more than 10 servers in total.
That's the EA version of a long living online game.

Setup your filters properly that's all. Pay attention to the region filter too, maybe that's why you don't see enough servers.

Well, maybe go to the freakin' filter settings and do some proper checking/unchecking? The game is fine and alive, even without premium.

I've been playing it since the release and I have literaly no problems finding a server. And Battlelog got way better since the release. It was SO DAMN buggy, but now it works perfect. Game is good. Don't like it - don't play it. Why complain?!

I play BF3 yes... the battlelog feature is annoying at first but it's completely fine to me after using it a bit. Nothing is wrong with it but it would be appreciated if it was in a client of some sorts. But but.. Let's HATE EA!!!

Hate on EA when they just made $10,000,000 and gave it all to charity.

LOL! So giving money to charity makes you above criticism?

I might go buy a gun and start shooting random people. By your logic, I just need to give a lot of money to charity and no one should be allowed to complain about my actions right?

He made a point with his post but you picked at only one sentence. He didn't say a word about criticism, he was talking about hate. markoze's post isn't a critic, it's hate and ranting in its purest form.

Stupidity is all over the internet so this post doesn't surprise me in the least. Nothing in my post said they can't be criticized however this OP is just blatant hate... even after such a great deed people still find the time to hate on a company that is trying to do good.

I hate Battlelog because sometimes it takes up to 5 minutes to load the game on a quad core with 8 gigs and GTX560 but I have no problem with server finding.

Bragging again... common... then you play with people that have shitty rigs... I have an Asus G73Sw, it loads the game when I enter in 30-60 sec? But when I play with one of my friend that has a shitty PC AND an external HDD on which the game is installed, it takes like 3 minutes to get ingame...

You want speed, play with someone that has speed... also, you didn't said anything about your net speed and how much junk you are running in the background while playing the game... The little things in life...

You guys just have to complain about everything right? Especially if it's something cool to hate on like EA.

Battlelog is fucking amazing (My opinion).
You just browse server and click play while still in OS, when game is fully loaded it switches you in game and you can start playing, in meantime while loading you can do whatever you want.
You can switch servers ultra easily even while game is loading screen, which wouldn't be possible if it was in-game cause you would either have to exit game, or wait for it to load, leave server and pick a new one.
Also you can check stats from other players once again without entering game. Which is great, if you didn't want to waste time waiting for game to load, or maybe you just don't have the game on PC you're currently using, or you're using phone, doesn't matter.

It has voice chat and regular chat.

Also there are plenty of servers.

Play around with your filters. I haven't played but one round in the last couple months, but I've never had a problem finding a game. There are always a few conquest games going on Firestorm, Karg, and Caspian.

I didn't like Battlelog either when I first used it two years ago but I seem to remember that changing pretty quickly.
