I get so irritated with headshots in this game. Never had any issue in any other PC shooter. I typically end up with the majority of my kills being headshots. But for whatever reason in this game, I can hardly get them. Whether I use a sniper rifle and a well aimed shot, or an M249 blasting away to the face at 10', I can't ******* get a head shot. A lot of times, I can unload my machine gun all over their head, even when it's the only thing showing, and even though I start firing a second or two before they ever see me, they can spin around and place 2 or 3 shots and I die, and they still have 50% health. I want to throw my mouse across the room after those kinds of deaths. Or if they are sitting perfectly still, and I'm only 50' away from them, across a street or something and I fire my sniper rifle at their head, I cannot get the ******* headshot. It's bullshit. Maybe they have lower ping than I and get the advantage of seeing things a fraction of a second sooner than I do. Even though I try to stay in servers with a ping of 100ms or less.

I have only 6 more hours then you played and more then x2 the points across the bored. This all tells me you need to stop playing recon as your off trying to play cool guy sniper while ignoring objectives.
But for reals recon blows unless your scouting and using soflam. Play some support and assault and you will do better.
When i get the JAVELIN unlocked we can do some soflam pain.

I can run and gun all day, but that is no fun to me. I'll get COD 2.5 if I want to do that. Sniping is a lot of fun, and I usually end the game in the top 3. I've defended objectives by myself plenty of times. I may not be the most contributing player, but snipers do have a roll. And your a ******* dick btw. It's a game. BF3, IT'S SRS BUSINESS. Also 6 hours is a lot when I've played a total of 12h.

I'm thinking I'm gonna put this game away until they release some fixes. I'm tired of playing an incomplete game that constantly locks up, crashes and takes forever to load sometimes. Then you are dealing with a **** ton of programs just to play the game. Has anyone looked at task manager after the game launches? What happened to the day of opening a game, and only the game is running. Now it's Origin, about 5 instances of Chrome for whatever reason, BF3 and a few other little programs.

Well I got my comp up and running last night with the new psu and the two 460s
. I ran a benchmark test but didn't get the scores I thought I would, probably need to mess around with it, but it's not that big of a concern. I turned the settings to ultra except for no AA, I think my cpu/memory is bottlenecking in that department. Looks really pretty and runs super smooth!
I should be on tonight for quite some time

So this is odd, after I got the SLi working the game likes to freeze/hiccup whenever big effects like explosions happen. The fps seems smooth at any other time, but the game almost wants to freeze completely for like 5 seconds :(
Maybe its my mobo drivers?

I did a quick search and it doesn't appear that Nvidia offers separate application profile updates. Flier, are you running the latest beta drivers?
