Does bf3 have a major fault?

abhisekzok · Jul 15, 2014

I have the origin version of bf3 and i am getting issues from the beginning. Its not the lag and all but bf3 crashes every single time whenever i play multiplayer and says bf3 stopped working. I found that by running geforce experience(which loads 50% of my cpu) i can play it for sometime and then horrible lag overcomes it and u guys know the meaning of freezing and lag in multiplayer. I tried everything from punkbuster, driver update, overclocking, etc. Sometimes i can play the singleplayer on ultra for a short period of time before it closes. pc specs- core 2 duo e8500, gtx750ti, 4gb ddr2 etc. Help guys.

Your rig, especially that CPU is not good enough for the game, especially 64 player maps, its probably reaching its peak and then it crashes. Try to get an i5 or better, and at least a 660ti.

i am poor and cannot afford a new cpu and 750ti is the latest card i purchased, i usually play a close quater match with 16 players and sometimes( if the heavens are with me) everything runs fun without a single lag. Btw tell me this, does bf3 requires the geforce experience to be open in the background? i also saw guys playing bf3 at 110 fps on the 750ti.

No it doesn't. Close quarters maps are small, that's probably why you don't have an issue playing in them, but bigger maps require more CPU/GPU power since there's a lot more stuff going on. Try lowering your settings a little, that will help.

His specs are enough to be able to play. I think you just need to turn the settings down, maybe to low-medium.

You don't need GeForce experience to run bf3.

Try using razer gamebooster

You repeated what I just said.

but i get 54-60 fps in ultra? And i played large conquest only once and had a bad experience with snipers. :3 oczdude8, bf3 starts one time, i play for 5 min and bam!! it crashes and never plays again until i start grforce experience and then it runs stutterishly cause of the nvidia app hogging cpu usage. If i am in luck i can play a whole multiplayer session without geforce exp and in 40fps in ultra and sometimes become the top player , but generally this does not happen.

Your GPU is definitely enough for this game. Your CPU and RAM are bottlenecking the GPU.

naah i dont think so, i played large conquest just now and it ran flawlessly. Apparently i got lucky.
