I get the need for a concession from "realism" in that players and vehicles need a spot to safely spawn and get organized. It's a game, after all. But when I'm in a section of the map that I'm allowed to be in (no countdown) and there are 2 or 3 tanks in the same area, then fair's fair. The admin didn't even give me a chance to respond before banning me - A message to All went out saying "stop attacking bases or you're done". I started to reply but was kicked before I could finish typing.
Apparently, I just lost all my stats and ranking from the previous 2 rounds. That's what I get for leveling a class I don't like to play: I get to do it again!1stStrike said:Ah, I love it. I'm in a chopper with two gunners owning shit up, racking up kill assists - and then BATTLEFIELD 3 HAS ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM.
God damn, I can't wait until they fucking fix this shit.

Intense for the people playing, boring as sin for the people watching 3 dudes crawling around the map trying to cap a point.

It can also lead to a situation where one team has almost all the jets choppers and tanks on a map. having the main base be cappable is terrible.

Got physical warfare keys. Anyone has Dogtag preorder key to trade for it?! PC btw.

Can't really say I see a problem with this. It makes the CPs more important, as would getting rid of uncaps.
Edit: Misread. Either way, it will make people want to defend their home base. It worked just fine in Bad Company 1 and it really does make it much more exciting. Having uncaps makes the game less competitive, period.

Don't get hit, and kill every enemy jet using ONE missile each. It's actually a lot trickier than it sounds. Here's the guide I used to get it:RoboPlato said:

Older BF games always featured these kind of maps, though usually they didn't feature the full slate of vehicles.

Spotting is part of my muscle memory by now. Which is problematic because I always wind up bringing up the damn commo rose and dropping my scope. and of course it's set to the same exact binding as spot, not that that means anything because changing that setting DOESN'T DO ANYTHING.
As for flashlights. Flashlights are fine. It's not that hard to kill someone using it, unless he's behind cover and right up in your face, that's about the only time it's bad but then again he'd have a good chance of murdering you even without the flashlight so whatever.

This. Being able to rain explosives onto your enemies with impunity is a little ridiculous
Can someone explain to me why the starting sniper rifles are listed last in the battlelog weapons section? I don't understand this. The default SV98 is such shit when facing someone with the semi auto marksman rifles. I have to get 60 kills for the bolt upgrade for this thing to even be decent? Fuck.

I said this in the community thread, but --
I suck at the game, but I always spot dudes and I like playing with a squad that is trying to capture objectives. I usually end up just doing ammo and health runs, reviving people and stuff. I end up with a pretty miserable K/D but I don't care. I love that it doesn't mean I end up last on the leaderboards because I'm more interested in helping the team.
I cannot fly anything worth a damn, though. Ugh.

The last unlock is that you get to use the starting weapons of either side.
SoulPlaya said:
Whaa?
I feel like I am the only one spotting. The best thing is when you have soldiers on ground and you are flying jet.
Like nobody gives a fuck about helping you with enemy position in the air.
I even get good at spotting that I press select automaticaly I see someone.
Just.....10....points...........

I'm running into the same problem i have with every other MP game on the market so far.
A lot of people play objective games, not going for objectives but camping for kills.
I play CQ with 4 or 5 friends and it's so damn easy to win games just going for the flags, becasue hardly anybody seems to care to do it.
Other then that i'm having a damn good time with the time, glad i took a break from Gears and gave it a try.

This is a fair point, but I can only go off what it feels like when I play, and I personally find myself joining a lot of fire fights where it seems like the entire known enemy force we're shooting as hasn't been spotted. Not just troops, but the tank rolling in too.
I kind of go by the thumb rule that if I'm joining the fight and also have the time to spot near every one of the opposing attacks, the several other guys I'm fighting alongside could spare a quarter of a second to do the same, if just once. Juggling can be very difficult especially if you're under fire, and it's truly impossible for me to know for sure, but when our sniper is sitting there scoping the enemy and seemingly isn't being shot at (as we're drawing the fire), and the enemy is unmarked, I cant help but feel they're not bothering to spot at all.
I don't know what its like on consoles, but on PC it's just the Q button. You can aim, move, crouch and shoot and still quickly tap the button to let everyone around you know a hostile are in the area, and where they are.

Heh this actually reminds me, one of my games yesterday, we had the worst pilot in the transport chopper. The guy was terrible, yet he never crashed. He just kinda derped his way to and from the Battleshop on Canals.
I couldn't stop laughing though, since every time it looked like he's about to crash, everyone bails, but then he saves it at the end. He never got killed though. Hell he never crashed, didn't have flares, but would put down the plane (extremely awkwardly) and repair it.
At the end, he really helped the team, although it's clear he shouldn't touch a jet.

Well they are the only class that can destroy vehicles and accumulate fuck ton of points while doing so
I mean support gets C4, but that doesn't help much, cause support running up to the front line trying to deter vehicles isn't a cakewalk
I liked Assault having C4 but then they broke it with Ammo resupply, but at least it kept the vehicles in check/humble
Recon is useless as fuck, the drone should've been the first/second unlock, at least that class would've helped spotting etc., making the game more intense helping everyone
It's just pew pew till it unlocks, and I've seen maybe 1 drone in 15+ games of 15-20+ ranked level guys
I know this may sound weird I think BF should add the BP points from Homefront as a mode, call it something, "Field Points" or some shit
More points you earn, better shit you get to buy and use for your team

I stopped going for melee kills =/
I was trying to knife this dude, and for some reason the animation lagged, and my guy had the knife out in stabby position for ever, took, 3 swipes to kill the dude, just as I finish, his teammate spawn and stabs me perfectly....
Other occasions melee kills didn't register, or something glitched in the matrix and fucked me over
DarthWoo said:
This is a major problem for me too. I go in or out of prone when I'm aiming with the R stick and I've died countless times just because of it.
Seems R3 is hyper sensitive in this game as I've never had the issue before and I always map crouch/prone to R3 whenever I can in FPS.
I'm pretty certain that only the driver gets and controls the flares. The gunner's loadout would only reflect things from the gun and possibly passive stuff like Stealth.Interficium said:
The SIG553 is easily the most awesome gun for engies that I've tried so far. It's accurate, at perfect at cqb. Though I'd suggest the forward grip at range. It tends to have a bit of a sway when firing at range.

What's the key for switching fire modes for the main guns again?
