its like asking if it is worth it to stop kissing your sister and start kissing <<enter name of the hottest chick here>> ..

^^I hope you are not speaking from experience.

If your PC will run the game then yes go for it........but if not then just stay with PS3(I cant believe I just said that)

Intel Core i5 2500k
Asus P8Z68-V
MSI R6870 Twin Frozr
4GB DDR3 1333 RAM
And the NZXT Phantom USB 3.0 Version(Not the 410) to keep it all inside

That isn't half bad. You'll get better visuals and a mouse is always best for FPS. Why did you go for the console version int the first place?

When it came out my PC was s*** so i got the console version, then i decided to upgrade recently. I only got my new pc 2 days ago.

Go PC. Drop console and go PC version. Your jaw is gonna be on the floor when you enable everything to high/ultra detail.

So after a long leave of absence I am trying to get back into this game. Got the DLC only to find very little to no servers in SA using it except for those private few servers . Also I am having to learn a new k/b which is really annoying the hell out of me. the new k/b has a small shift key on the left and I am used to the bigger shift button so I keep hitting the "\" button every time I want to run :/. Still suck at the game regardless of the k/b I use but I am enjoying it.

Strange.. Well at least you can use all the new guns in all the servers.

hmmm, I am pretty sure there are quite a few servers running the B2K stuff.

Maybe I am just looking at wrong. Majority have custom names but with, say, mweb name or WAGE. Can I still join those or are they clan servers? I have been out the online FPS scene since COD4 so yeah I r newb again .

The keyboard in question would not happen to be a Logitech K300 by any chance? I bought one recently and the small shift key is rather annoying but you get used to it

//btw why does the keyboard have two "\" keys(one next to the shift and one next to Enter)

I played the game online for the first time and apart from the very few SA servers the game is brilliant

No the k/b is the Logitech G510 .

I hope I get used to it because my thumb feels like its growing to break off

pls tell me you mean "very few active" servers??

I am sure Phreak can confirm, but there are a crap load of servers.

@Ana do you actually put a name in when you filter?

my filter is set up as: Africa > B2K+Vanilla > 1-5, 6-10, 10+ > No Name Entered > CQ, CQ Large, Rush

this way I get any server that is active with gameplay as conquest, conquest large and rush and that is both the DLC and normal.

Did pretty well last night. For once my kills outweighs my death rate . I also was able to get my first knifing in and grab a dog tag, that was a awesome to finally do to someone else . Realized something last night I really hate playing on the bigger maps. I just get lost all the time and no matter how I try to stay with someone from my team they always end up disappearing so I am always on my own and end up getting knifed by someone hiding in the shadows or long grass depending on the map.

@OTC I just set to Africa > BF3 & Karkland and thats it. Then I sort by the amount of players in each server and choose from there. Last night I realized that what I thought were private servers or clan servers are public servers just with oddball names. So my mistake on reading the screen .

well I dislike the 64 player servers, but I have my filter checked for 32 and 64 cause they are usually the packed ones.

we must jam sometime but you will have to be squad leader cause I hate that annoying "ATTACK THIS POSITION" "DEFEND THIS POSITION" when all you want to do is spot a damn enemy :@

my nick is J3rkAL0t so add me in BL.

am surprised cause I haven't played in about 1 or 2 weeks because of this damn heat.

see Phreak also played last the 10th I think it was.

Will do. My nick is as it is here and just about every other area.

sent you invite on BL Ana.

Where do you go to accept from BL site?

will be on the bottom right hand side. you should get like a small green pop-up thingy.

if you don't get it, let me know what time round about you will be online so that we can do it while both on.

Will try again when I am at home. Dont want to install the BF3 add-on here at work .
