BF2S Forums Do you hate the fat log full of shit?

Would of been better with a proper in game server browser akin to BF2 but its far too late for them to go down that route.

To be honest I much prefer battlelog over the steaming pile of shit that was BC2's in game browser. I don't know about everyone else, but that browser worked maybe 60% of the time for me.

this really. Its a step forward.

it's not really a step forward, though, is it? how is it a step forward? it takes shit that has been completely standard-fare in video-games since multiplayer gaming began and then sticks it in a browser. that's a browser eating up another 150k of background memory just so that you can join servers. completely unnecessary. it's just a glorified server browser with a shitty facebook social network tacked on, that no one will use properly. it is really damn annoying having to completely quit and relaunch the game's .exe every time you want to switch server. i end up playing bf3 in single-server bursts, now, because it's just effort to 'switch server' if the one you're in isn't going particularly well.

I think Steam perfected the server browser options - battlelog seems to be some shitty cheap attempt at trying to do something similar. With the option of browsing servers while being either in-game or on your desktop, it just seems to be so much easier and smoother compared to the use of an internet browser.

Battlelog kicks the shit out of all the other BF in game browsers. Seriously, Battlelog is actually really fucking good.

It's faster, easier to read, easier to fix/update, and supports more filters and options than any other server browser in any other BF game.

How does what steam did even correlate to the battlelog? If you said Origin I would understand.

I meant in terms of connecting to servers, Steam did it better. Sure, the battlelog is an improvement for battlefield games, but I still think its inferior to the way Steam handles server browsing.

I actually really like it, its easy for the big guys to fix if something goes wrong, its easy for them to add something in if it makes sense. I can log in at work and talk with my OL friends and see what they're doing.I've never once had battlelog crash on me.

Battlelog is fantastic, get over it, stop being so against change.

i agreee with adums

Works great for me, whats the big deal?

I'm not against change , it's just EVERY single game I played yesturday I got on a team full of retards, and every single time things turned around for the better , I get disconnected  : you were disconnected from your ea-account, and then the battlelog-site crashed and it really pisses me off, the only time the serverbrowser in IT'S TRUE PREDECESSOR disn't work was when EA-was updating ...

And OT: Is it just me who wants "local-area-play" ability?

you would have been chucked on shitty teams if it was an in game browser too.
getting disconnected (if it is a broblem with battlelog at all) would be easier to fix in browser form (quick webpage downtime to roll out the update ~10-15mins) than if it were ingame (team of programmers having to do bug finding, fixing, testing, refixing if need be, more testing, turning it into patch code, releasing, then you having to DL it and patch the game)

My favorite part is when it fails to connect me to the server when i want to play singleplayer.
