I have the aim thing but just white screen in front of that. will try updating drivers tho. I have an option for x86 icon and a normal BF icon as well same both times tho. do you have that origin installed and registered?

The game runs through Origin yes, have have you managed to play it without it?
edit. Duel core? a few threads on the battlelog forums about it and most people experiencing it have a duel core CPU

You need a battlelog profile to play the game as everything is launched through that, it keeps track of your stats etc.

It's good, but to be honest it's not massively different gameplay wise to BF3, although it does feel nicer to play. There's a lot of server crashes and random game crashes at the minute though which is really annoying.

There's a new message on Battlelog saying they are going to be releasing a patch shortly for the random crashes. I played through the campaign last night too, decent, but far too short.

I've got it on PS3 The graphics on mine look really bright and cartoony compared to BF3, tried playing with the settings but it's no better, not overly impressed upto now but il stick at it. I only ever play online don't bother with campaign it bores me!

got it on friday for the PS3, i really like the online and especially like the fact that you can find powerful weapons about the place like the 1 shot kill sniper rifles etc. I like the levolution too, the storms and the flooding levels are pretty cool, i'd already seen the shanghai level in the beta but still pretty cool. The attack boats are ace too, and the fact that the rhib boats have miniguns now is a massive bonus, it actually makes them useful and not a massive sitting target!
And the mobile artillery, a nice feature if not a little annoying because of the tunnel vision it gives and you find yourself getting blown up with C4 an awful lot
Only glitch i've found so far is that the sound doesn't work for the first 10-20 seconds or so online but not a massive issue. I had to up the brightness settings too but that could be my tv or something as anything indoors was impossible to see!

Maybe a stupid question but I bought it on xbox yesterday, loaded it all up today, tried going online and all the servers are empty, any reason for this?

I think it was because I didn't go into quick match, I was just browsing all the official servers, if that makes sense.

If you're on server browser, you need to click right stick and select lobbies with 1-5 slots free.

Cheers andy, i am just going to wait the couple of weeks for it to come out on PS4, as sad as it sounds i want to start it fresh on PS4 and have a better experience rather then starting and learning it on the lesser PS3, would be good to get a decent CS squad going when its all up, mattb, wrighty, andy1868 etc.
