    Hi guys I have just installed win8 so far so good much faster than win7 and the new ui is not hard at all to get used to... I have only one issue so far whenever I try to join any server on BF3 using IE10 I get 'Could not contact Battlelog, please try again' error message. I have tried everything I could think of: first I launched with chrome and I had no issue so I guessed it was related to IE10 then, I reinstalled IE10, reinstalled flash update via windows update since it is embed now, formatted my pc and reinstall everything all over, updated all my software, plugins and drivers, ran windows update and still no luck. Of course EA chat was useless to the point he said it is working on chrome so it is working, but I don't use chrome and I don't want to. Anyone had that? Cheers

    You might just have to deal with it on Chrome. It may not be supported yet on IE10. There is a plugin that allows you to use the Chrome engine within IE, but I'm not sure if it will work with battlelog.

    Battlelog never really liked working on Internet Explorer 9 so i doubt changing to IE 10 would fix it.
    Just get either Chrome or Firefox to use Battlelog and i know its not a real solution to the problem.
