Disable AA... Keep the video settings on low or medium. You can change it by entering SP. Which OS are you using?? Follow this for 32bit Vista/Windows 7
Requirements
Only real requirements is that you have atleast 2GB RAM. You don't need beyond that even though we are allowing addressing up to 2.5 GB. Also following instructions and being somewhat familiar with working with files in windows is required. Make sure you are using Vista SP1. If not then you need this hotfix that fixes a major blunder with Vista address space - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940105 [support.microsoft.com]
That's all, follow the 3 steps.
1) Prepare the operating system to be able to use beyone 2GB address space with a userva of 2.5GB (only 32 bit OS's need to do this): I am purposely using only 2500 for userva for specific reasons and any more will likely not be needed, as a result the kernel will have plenty of space to play in.
Windows 7/Windows Vista
* In Windows 7/Vista go to Start menu. Go to Accessories. Locate the command prompt shortcut and hover mouse over it. Right Click on the shortcut then select Run as Administrator.
* In the command prompt type this exactly: bcdedit /set increaseuserva 2500. Then hit enter.
* Make sure you get a message back confirming the change was made. To verify the entry is there you can type just bcdedit, hit enter, and you should see the entry now listed.
* Then close the command prompt. You just told Vista to increase user virtual address (userva) space to 2500MB.
* Changes take effect on reboot but don't reboot yet.
SUMMARY
We extended the user virtual address space in XP, Vista and 7 to 2500MB, so now applications can utilize up to that much if they are set to be Large Address Aware. While some 32 bit games/applications are set, Battlefield 3 is not.
2) Now reboot the PC because Windows needs to set the userva at 2500 which only happens after startup.
If you skip any step it will not work. When you have rebooted you should be good to go. Run the game as normal with the original game shortcut.
TO UNDO THE CHANGES
For Vista 32 Open command prompt as administrator and type: bcdedit /deletevalue increaseuserva. That deletes the entry.
Reboot and you are back to normal.
Its as on 31st October. One month has passed by and I think atleast 1m more have purchased it
Can you please check and tell me whats mine
Also KD too...

I find myself a little unlucky, I work night shifts. so i am up during the night uptill early morning around 9 - 10 ...even on the weekends
thats why I see most of the indian servers empty
once or twice when I have managed to stay up during the day on weekends
then it was amazing
almost all indian servers completely full
oh and i like the new queue method really helps in the all severs full situation..
any of you guys in the same situation as me?

The DLC pack, included free with "Limited Edition" copies of the game, includes four classic Battlefield maps re-imagined in Battlefield 3's Frostbite 2 engine. There are three new vehicles: the VSTOL figher jet, desert buggy, and an APC, ten new weapons, and new assignments.
The expansion pack will cost $15 for anyone that doesn't have a voucher. In addition to the new content, the add-on will introduce five new trophies/achievements:
