Switch to CQB weapons (shotgun/SMG) and play like assault while tossing ammo to buddies. When you get close to a vehicle, C4 it (2 to disable 3 to kill) and detonate. Suicide is usually the best tactic since you run the risk of being killed before discharging if you run.
I play like that and I'm the best support in 360 GAF, even though battlelog has the classes mis labled. (shows me as recon and I don't play recon).

C4 goes great with just about anything. Put them on MCOMS, enemies, friends, vehicles, EOD bots, and collapsible structures. They can also be used to give your chili an extra kick.A Penguin said:

We are in the same shit
Just captured the fuck out of an M-COM.
Someone was sitting in a troop carrier shooting at stuff far away... offence is not when you turtle. So I hop in the driver seat, go ripping down the hill.... dude jumps out "What the fuck are you doing". Crash it into the wall of the building where the mcom station is. Clear that area out with the gun. Hop out, and arm the mcom. Hop back in and take out anyone who tried to get even close to the mcom. M-Com destroyed. That's how ya doit.

Ended up 31 and 3. Only MVP #2 though.

They will be ironed out eventually, but this game really is fantastic.
The rubberbanding/lag issues need first priority.

It's how lag manifests in the game when your character/vehicle snap back to where they were a second or two before as you sprint/fly/swim etc.
In BF3 it happens a lot on tehran highway(I think that's the one), so that's probably a map issue.
It happens to a lesser extent on all servers on all maps, it's quite annoying and can cause you to die a lot, miss shots a lot, and crash your air vehicles a lot.

I would use War Tapes for the campaign but give it a miss on MP; it makes it very hard to pick up enemy footsteps.
Also, can anyone explain to me why DICE continue to have 5.1 OFF by default in their console BF games. They have the best sound design of any FPS out there, yet most people miss out on it if they don't go exploring the menus.
Rubberbanding is when you're running around and it suddenly seems like you're attached to a random wall by a rubber band for a split second. Some maps are worse than others for it.Gui_PT said:

Wartapes for hearing foot steps.
It causes me to crash my jet too much :-(.Alienshogun said:
Also something that we figured out today before the servers crashed. For whatever reason when we do quick match it puts us in European servers more often than not. We were lagging all day yesterday and couldn't figure out why until someone noticed what server we were in. It did it again today too.
Man I know the Campaign wasn't all that great, but the carrier mission was so damn good. I had to replay it and video cap the carrier launch. Here's what it looked like on my rig @1080p (Ultra settings):

Someone in the comments mentions that rubberbanding is also what is causing people to come out of iron sights without you having touched it. I've had both issues, and it's super frustrating.
Also, to all the people who bitched about CoD knifing being 10 feet out, the stab animation in this game can be launched from 20 feet out no problem. Shit has craaaaazy as lock on from afar lol.

That mission looked good but it was just one big long QTE. Hated it.
The squad system is terrible right now. Not being able to create your own squad just means that you can't play with your friends most of the time. If you are 3+ players playing together, good luck getting in the same squad.
Members of the same platoon and/or members of a party on battlelog should automatically get in a private squad (and even if you are more than 4 players).

I have a quit % of 23... why do they track that when they fucking force you to wait for the next round to start before being able to quit. That's lame.
I haven't had much knifing issues. Actuallly. Once or twice I was right on the dude and didn't get him and died :[zlatko said:Someone in the comments mentions that rubberbanding is also what is causing people to come out of iron sights without you having touched it.

I'm not sure if I've been the victim of a giant lunge, but I know I have done the 20 footers to others. I was chasing a guy and he was too far off and I just hit F at air, then my character teleported forward, his was rooted to the ground and teleported back to play out the animation. I was like WTF ! :O

You don't really have time to enjoy the pretty graphics in a real dogfight. The campaign is basically a long benchmark for the engine.gibon3z said:

I love going on to a flight school server where the rules say don't engage other players unless they agree to. So naturally, ever heli and jet you get in to and try and learn to fly gets shot out of the sky with AA tanks and stingers.
