Sweet. I just got shipping confirmation from Amazon. My copy of BF3 is in transit from IN and should hopefully be in my possession when I get home from work. Are the stats reset tomorrow or have you early access players been building up your unlocks?

It is believed we will be able to keep our stats as it has been legit to play online overseas since earlier today.

Danged double post!

I'm standing in line at Gamestop and this is more of a nerdfest than I anticipated. I feel dirty.

Officially unlocked now

Every time I get rolling with the M416 the server crashes and all my progress is lost. Taking it as a sign and going to bed.

Looking forward to a lot more playtime tomorrow though

I've waited in line for a few midnight releases. They have all been kind of bad in some way. I've waited on the gum riddled sidewalks of San Francisco which sucked. However the worst by far was for Modern Warfare 2. I waited in line with most of my friends, but the atmosphere of most of the people there was a little hostile. A friend of mine does have an entertaining story about the Wii release.

One of the "lucky" recipients of a Wii came outside to gloat to everyone that they got a Wii with I think Metroid Prime 3 and Zelda: Twilight Princess. Someone noticed that he was not holding Zelda, but Excite Truck. When they told him the guy nearly dropped his Wii and he promptly left as he was rightfully shamed for gloating.

At least you're not waiting in line for a midnight showing of the latest movie. Those crowds tend to be really far into the deep end of the nerd scale.

I tried the co-op. Maybe it's just me, but the first mission seemed like it was designed with more than two players in mind.

Is anybody else having crashing issues?

If I try to run on anything but low it hits some mythical 1.2GB RAM usage for bf3.exe and then crashes.

Anyone know where the optional HD texture install on the 360 for the MP disk. I just did the normal game install but didn't see a seperate file. Is that install for the textures or is there something additional?

Applying for the platoon as Rothving, just a heads up so someone can approve me please.

I am so, so jealous of all you bastards.

Tomorrow = father in law exiting homestead -> brief work period -> game collection -> cherry coke and BF3 til my eyes bleed/baby cries*

* "baby" = wife and/or actual baby, whoever cries first/loudest

Ugh. Why did you have to mention Cherry Coke? I've given up soda because lately there has been some extra Swarfigo. I'd kill a mf'er for a Dr. Pepper.

Applying for the platoon as Schmootle, see you online!

My wife is good friends with the Doctor. She keeps telling me it's an innocent relationship, but given the number of empty bottles, I've grown suspicious.

And hey, I'd take a beer 10 times out of 10 over either of them. Which is why I'm drinking cherry coke.

This game is amazing.. *amazing*
I was doing some helicopter dogfights on Damavand (sp?) Peak, with the little scout helicopter.. I was unstoppable!

Starting a fresh thread...
