Thursday Night Throwdown 10/27: Battlefield 3

@Thuggish: Ill be your friend... friend. :)

Do it. Join the collective.

@Vager: where is the part with Vinny talking about how he got into the his current job? (Roller skating rink-mascot and DJ)

one of my favourite moments

No regenerative health and no Kill cam?

Why not make it a standard server?

Can't wait!

Why no rush? It's pretty fun.

wish i could join but you know... Europe having a later release date and all!

Wish I could watch this live but the world series is on. I look forward to the archive... this should be amazing.

Looking forward to the crazy action tonight. Ryan better be piloting something!!

The Bad Company 2 TNT is probably my favorite. Hope this one can live up to the
madness.

Knowing this I'm much more tempted to buy BF3 for $50 from Amazon and remote into my home PC to setup the download while I finish out my work day... sadly, I'm the only one in my 'normal' gaming circle that would have it... so outside of this event, I wouldn't have a lot of reason to play.

I would like to add that it wasn't only me and Nick, there were about 15 people who chipped in and made it possible for us to rent the two servers (US & UK)

Why are they always when I'm at work?!

Been playing on the server and hope to get in tonight for a little bit to kick some butt with my slow-pc. :)

I will be there. YES!

64 players of fun and games. Just please remember to tell your game server provider to either have punkbuster off or updated to the latest version - I and many updated our PB earlier today and as a result we can't join current PB servers because their server files haven't been updated yet..

I turned PunkBuster off this morning for that very reason. :) Don't worry, we've coordinated it all.

This TNT would literally be the only thing I'd want Battlfield 3 for.

This will be a great TNT, and they are playing the best version of the game for such an event. (64 vs 32, come on!)

Pew Pew Pew!!!

Or just disable it because it's a pile of shit. That's what they did.

Dope, you guys chose well this week

Not fair! UK people don't have their copies yet!

No console TNT makes me sad :( At least I gots friends to play with on PS3.

Hopefully get my copy tomorrow, but I might just stay up to watch this.  
 
Battlefield 3 is going to be twice as crazy.

I for one find Ryan's wishy washy stance on Helicopters appalling. Fucking hypocrite!

Please only play Conquest and only on maps with vehicles.

Vehicles makes everything better. Helicopters by themselves is already too great.

Sw33t this will be my first. Poppin my TnT cherry.... be gentle

Now this is the kind of game I wanna see on TNT.

Madness ensues.

ahhh the dilemma, should I hop in, or watch the madness?

oh wait, I have 2 monitors! Fate.

Darn, I'm on 360, I can't wait to see what happens anyway.

Heck yeah! I hope I can get the game installed and running in time. Was hoping to pick it up today. :)

This is going to be amazing, wish I could play but just watching is going to be awesome!!!

Holy shit, GB really going at it. I'd have never believed that there is going to be a PC TNT of a multiplatform game.

Just like to see as a UK user thankyou for linking the time to a conversion website. Saves a lot of faffing about on what GMT time it is :D see you at 12 midnight

You'r making the wild assumption that the game would actually work for people.

FUUUUUUUUUUU....

I will be playing FUCK YEAH PC.

and it's all conquest large!!!!

I should have just bought it off Origin.

Oh man, I'll enjoy this. 

because... HELICOPTERS.

I dislike BF3, but if they stick to maps with vehicles only it should be a good bombcast. I really hope they don't play it on the 360.

AWESOME!!!

Headshots!

Good luck on getting that game to work properly, you guys.

Hot Damn.  My body is ready.

This is going to kick ass.. Looking forward to watching as I am stuck playing on PSN until I complete funding for a new PC

Bleh, BF3 isn't released until tomorrow here.

Should hopefully be good. The BC2 TNT and BF3 mutliplayer quicklook are pretty funny. 
Is Jeff still at a event thingy? Would be a shame if he isn't playing 

Please only play Conquest and only on maps with vehicles.

Hooah, am I rite gais?
