Inatalled anything new or changed settings?
Try this-
Gamebooster Download

whats the ping you are getting??


I had such problems due the following reasons.
1. Very bad ping or router/internet issue
2. low ram, I could not play the game when couple of tasks/browsers were open.
3. when I tried to tweak the resolution to Max/ultra. I had to delete the profile file and restart the game and then set the settings to a lower value.
4. Hard disk loaded( i.e, too much read write eg: torrents etc)

I donno it just started in the middle of the session which was going fine for 4hrs, suddenly the games started lagging, so I changed server only to find the same lag. Then tried different servers only to realize something went wrong my side.

Re: Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion

defrag your OS & game drive, its probably pagefile, too much of fragmentation...

Is your HDD light blinking erratically ( or doesnt blink, just stays on?) when BF3 lags?
If yes, then it could be Punkbuster busting your HDD :p

& it'd help us help you even better if you'd posted your PC spec. ;)

Oops, Forgot about my siggy.
Here are my specs

Intel E8400 @stock
Gigabyte EP45 DQ6
4GB DDR2 800MHz
Zotac GTX 560Ti
500GB Single Platter HDD 7200rpm
Corsair VX450

Completely forgot about the defrag part, I usually keep Diskeeper in Auto, forgot to install it after OS upgrade.

Here's an update for BF3 Premium Players, Strategy guide for CQ :p

first check your CPU and GPU temps (while idle and gaming) and make sure all fans are running also that of PSU.

Err coincidentally I installed a new cpu fan & 5x80mm fans yesterday itself. My setup is running cooler than before. So I doubt it.

I had kept my pc for defrag. Let me check it in a while. Hopefully it should fix the issue as OS partition was heavily fragmented.

it is possible that while installing fans, heatsink might have been slightly displaced etc. I said that because the problem suddenly occured after long hours of gaming.

anyway I guess it's fixed as you are playing :p

I spend only a couple of hours playing (usually from 10PM-2AM) but when the battlelog goes missing after a good round .. its FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU..

BTW has the famas bug gone? if famas is used in a round by anyone then the battlereport doesnt turnup..

Re: Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion

that famas bug was fixed long ago. presently battlelog sometimes doesnt report stuff on the battlefeed and misses battlereports but the stats get counted.

Re: Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion

The Battlefield Blog | ?Matches? Feature Coming to Battlefield 3
We’re taking the next step in advancing online competitive play in the Battlefield 3 community. The “Matches” feature will allow players to coordinate competitive multiplayer sessions with their friends and squad members. Battlefield 3 players will be able to select the time, server, game settings, and roster for their Matches creating a controlled and definitive environment for competitive play.

Players will be able to coordinate Matches for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 through the Battlelog. To coordinate a Match a player must be actively renting a dedicated server. Once a dedicated server has been selected the Match host can set the Match name, start time, game mode, team size, and map rotations.
