Here are the patch notes from the update. I was not expecting an update at all, good job EA.

Load issue
Fixed some of the issues relating to the long and/or permanent load times that some players have experienced on PC.

NOTE: This should reduce the lengthy load times for some of our players. We will continue to investigate further fixes for this issue. If you’ve been experiencing lengthy load times on PC, please apply this patch, try the Open Beta again, and let us know if this helps.

Miscellaneous
-Fixed various crashes when running Windows Vista SP2 or Windows 7
-Fixed various graphical glitches on PC
-Updated the graphics options screen and introduced full-screen borderless mode on PC

I personally play in full-screen borderless so I'm glad its back. Sadly all my key mappings were reset after the update.

Good news on the loading issues as I know that bothered me and a few others.

Goddammit, I JUST remapped all my keys and had to re-set my video options last nite after the last update wiped them out.

Fn kidding me?

That seems like some 101 shit right there...

BF3 clearly uses the cloud for its key mapping, I'm gonna go ahead and guess its just because it is the beta and they aren't supporting the beta in the cloud.

Cloud or not, that file shouldnt be overwritten. Appended maybe, but not overwritten. That goes for any application and its settings...

**gehn** · 10-09-13, 04:00 PM

If you look I don't think it was overwritten. They changed where they are storing the file.

hmmm Interesting...

I shall have to take a gander when I get home.

To you WASD noobs, changing a few binds isnt that big of a deal, but I damn near have to change every binding.

ARROW KEYS FOR LIFE SUKKAS!
