• Play Battlefield 3 in Australia, now!

    Why wait until the 27th? Battlefield 3 went live in the USA four hours ago and now you can play it too. You will however need to organise a VPN account. Once you have yourself a trial or paid VPN account with access to an American server, connect to that, and then activate the game. Once activated, disconnect from your VPN otherwise all of your traffic will be routed internationally, and you can expect sky-high pings.

    GU's 64 player Battlefield 3 server is already online and ready for play. It's located at 173.199.80.80:19567, titled "Gamers-Underground.com 64p Conquest". Or you can click here for the direct Battlelog link where you can also favourite it.

      OpenVPN - Open Source VPN - I just used that and it worked fine. free (100mb) anyone know how to adjust your sensitivity in vehicles? I lowered it right down for on foot in the general options but as soon as i jump in a tank or car its like its at max again.

      buy BF3:LE for about $47AUD from green man games.

      I just did this successfully, so it works, and it's ridiculously simple. Got my key immediately.


      1. Go to Green Man Gaming (greenmangaming.co.uk)

      2. put game in your cart

      3. Apply voucher GMG10-PERCE-NTOFF

      3. log in with your GMG account and purchase using whatever payment method you desire.
