To be honest the hud icons are not a big deal since we can just play with a lower resolution.. the sun/flashlights though basically blind me every time I even look remotely in that direction. Pretty ridiculous and completely unplayable when that happens.

same issues with Sapphire 2GB HD5870 eyefinity 6 edition
running 3 1680x1050 monitors. Switched to single screen until they find a solution.

I could play the game on medium settings with 3 monitors now it's ultra. at least this is a compensation :D

I found a fix for the player icons by turning 1 of my screens off while the game is running and after you hear the device disconnect sound turn it back on. The only downside is the HUD is not centered.

Im using a 5870 so im not sure if it will work for nvidia users.

edit: did some further testing, i need to turn of my left screen which is also my preferred display for it to work.

also adding the fix the Spyle posted my hud is now centered:
Run at a resolution lower than your desktop, such as 4800x900. First thing you'll see is your hud is now nolonger centered.. No problem! Go into your DocumentsBattlefield 3settings folder and open PROF_SAVE_profile in notepad. Change the line "GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth 0.800000" to "GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth 0.300000" (30 worked for me)

Nevermind! I got it working! Edited the profile as stated above and I play in windowed mode. I lose frames but it all works fine. Just play lower until we get an official fix.

My rig is. Sli 570's, I7 2600k, 8gbs of memory 1600. Resolution 5760x1080. I get 30 frames on Textures high and everything else medium and off.

Is the mp missing icons issue in eyefinity EVER going to be fixed FFS!!!!!!

Relax, the game has only been out for like a week

With the 11.10 WHQL I get immediate BSODs and DX-Errors all the time. Thankfully I found a Restore Point with my working 11.9-Eyefinity-Config that has no HUD-Issues.

I didn't bother with the current 11.10 release, knowing that it's probably older than the preview drivers out now. But hopefully their 11.11 will bring about some performance improvements to our cards. Still waiting on DICE to release a patch for the game... but they're probably swamped with bug reports and ideas/suggestions. Then again, a few things that they need to do to Battlelog is still not done... yet... and I wonder what their plan is for that dev team.

I'm still struggling to get decent kills due to the friendly/foe icons not showing up properly. But oh well. I'll start to get used to seeing what uniform is what w/o having to spot and wait for audio confirmation.

Regardless. These issues should not be with the game out of the box. Ive already been given my refund from origin.

found a fix for centering tags on the screen:

http://getsatisfaction.com/battlefield3/topics/nvidia_surround_and_eyefinity_issues

1. clear all your monitor groups (not in eyefinity menu but in Desktop managment)

2. attach one screen to your middle screen

3. make a big group with your 3 monitors. (at this time all my monitors called #2 (bevore they was #1))

4. set your brezel

5. after that go into the eyefinity menu and set the middle screen to primary

Once I did this it works. No idea if you have to follow all the steps or use the new 11.10 eyefinity menu to set the middle screen as primary, didn't even know they added that feature with the new driver release.

Now all they have to do is fix the light flare problem and we're good to go.
