Looks like some progress in getting the problem recognized. Johan Andersson has recognized the issue and is investigating. I'm thinking they come up with a fix soon...looks like there's quite a few people (including myself) pushing the issue around the net. Nice to see so many multi-monitor users out there...

My problem is that everythings squashed into the middle screen and the menu is never visible (I'm guessing it's on another screen), does anyone know how to change BF3's resolution manually through a config file for example? I've looked in my documents/BF3 folder but can't find anything.

Edit: Seems that even if i try and play the game on one screen, the menu is not visible at all, i can only play the game at the moment by disabling eyefinity.

only way I can get the friendly names to appear in Eyefinity is playing in windowed mode.

Works for now at 5760x1200 but it takes a hit in FPS


need a patch ASAP Dice

Considering that this bug was present during BETA, (I had to play with one monitor to have those icons come up), I find it incredible hard to phantom how this bug could have been missed during QA.

QA team fail much?

*snicker* This is probably the same QA folks who did testing for BC2 when that whole Eyefinity/Surround CTD problem was around for 12+ months.

Looks like the HUD was reset yesterday, in eyefinity mode the map was on the left monitor and the health/ammo on the right. Friendly tags were fixed as well which is perfect.

As far as this being in the beta I never ran across this issue, alpha neither for that matter.

To improve things a bit I also downloaded the latest Catalyst profiles (CAP version 4) which were released on 10/26

Anyone else see improvement in the HUD last night?

Hud was fixed? Post some screenshots?

Just tested it in eyefinity running my native resolution. 4972x900 bezel compensated.

The HUD is in the middle monitor as it should be. But, I do not see friendly tags on anyone.

ATI or Nvidia?

If on ATI did you download the latest Profiles:
