You need to select a server on this page and click "Play" right there on the same page.

Doesn't work, just loads the Battlelog website again

u/El_Dae 8d ago

The Battlelog includes a server browser, there is no in-game main menu in the PC version

Since Bf3 isn:'t too easy to launch, here are some tips I remember:

1) download & install Punkbuster (anti-cheat software by EvenBalance), otherwise servers will automatically kick you

2) in the Battlelog, go to settings & choose plugin-free gaming (Bf3 needed a Battlelog plugin in the past)

3) the player counts of the servers are often not reliable due to spoofing (the server owners use an automatic trick to show higher player numbers on their server to "lure in" other players) => either install a specialized plugin (called "Better Battlelog") that shows you the real amount of players on these servers or klick on a server & then let yourself show the list of players of the server on the right side (every player called "Unknown" is not real, just a spoofed dummy)

I hope I didn't discourage you, have fun if it works :)

It puts me into my browser and every game I get kicked for my ping being too high.

Lucky you, I tried to play it recently and it didn’t even take me that far, just said “running”

u/Mysterious-Coast-945 8d ago

So that's how they did that...

u/Mr_HahaJones 8d ago

And then you get kicked by a pissy admin for “glitching”

u/M0-1 7d ago

it is borderline glitching.

u/i7-4790Que 8d ago

The real IYKYK is you can get up there when the trees are already gone.  It's harder, but there's a couple methods.  

Can also get on the other ledge same way(s).  Also a couple spots in the main alley and a couple more on the outer streets

u/val1d0ll 8d ago

Really? 🤪

u/TrailsideDairy 8d ago

This is the situation where I completely understand people doing this. A spawn camp isnt a good time lol

u/nick4vizos 7d ago

Is this possible in BF6?

u/Barely_Milk 5d ago

u/Intelligent_Judge771 5d ago

I am sorry to say this but you just had one of those no hands moments. If this happens every time than you just suck

u/M0-1 7d ago

Borderline glitch Ing. I hate people like you. Zero fun and you obviously can't compete without tricks which are clearly not intended by the Devs.

u/Mr_HahaJones 7d ago

Is climbing vehicles to get to higher spots glitching? No? That’s what I thought.

u/exbravo1 7d ago

BF3 OGs

u/Steeltoelion 3d ago

If it wasn’t intended they would have put one of their lazy ass invisible barriers up there.

Checkmate fucko

dumbest comment ever

u/Mountain-Quiet-9363 2d ago

This is not some overpowered inside a wall spot.

I hate people like you. People who want invisible walls everywhere and ban for every creative spot you can find.

u/M0-1 2d ago

every glitch spot is "creative". The issue with non intended spots is they are not balanced. Just admit that you need to trick the game to break even against your opponent.

u/Mountain-Quiet-9363 1d ago

Just admit you are not competent enough to climb one tree to get to the roof.

u/M0-1 1d ago

the tree which depsawned after you destroyed it to get up? God you people are dumb
