In many cases they improved the destruction because they made it more realistic. In BC1 and 2 lot of things would just explode when shot with a couple bullets, it was extremely over the top like a John Woo film and shit would be sent flying like the physics in a Halo game. They improved the "realism" in that regard, but then they went around and made some shit completely invincible like random sign posts that a tank can't even knock over lol.
Terrain deformation seems mostly bs and only works in some places. Course I didn't expect Red Faction level of terrain deformation for game play purposes.

Hmm, so ways to balance:
-Increase ADS time
-Decrease FOV even more
-Shorten it's "range"
One big problem is that it's infrared, so it can't really be "blinded" by bright light like normal NV would, I guess.
X360 version.
A friend of mine told me that during a match there was a player that was getting a lot of hits without dying. He looked like invulnerable. Something like a glitch, he doens't know.
Do you know if this stuff really exist and if they eventullay will fix this problem?

My voice chat has been a bit improved on PS3 the last couple nights (its been satisfactory, just an occasional drop / static, but working), even got into game with a squad mate from the main menu screen.
Tehran Highway only rubberbanded a little...I feel its improving, its quite epic overall.
Funny moment, on Canals, there was a guy at C, an enemy, in one of the structures and he was all the way in the back of it, prone. So I went behind the building to sneak around and surprise him, but when I got behind the building, his legs were sticking out through the wall, and it let me shoot him...so I shot him in the ankles till he died.
When he saw the "post-kill cam" he must have been very confused at how I killed him.

Like I said, it definitely has its uses and there are times when it gives you a distinct advantage, but I just feel like the cons balance it out enough.commish said:
The main issue for me is that I feel like my mobility is restricted when I'm using it, much like when I have a long range scope on my gun. I like to be able to quickly go from scoped to non-scoped without sacrificing my view of what's around me and I feel like the INRV really puts a damper on that play-style. I also feel like the thing is all but worthless in quick-draw, close-quarters situations, which I'm constantly in because I'm a fairly aggressive player. If you're the type of player who likes to sit back and pick people off without getting your hands too dirty then I think it gives you a fairly sizable advantage.
Also, I play rush exclusively so that could have something to do with my opinions as well (on top of being a console peasant).

My favorite thing about BF3 is I don't care if we win or lose. I like the points. I'm obsessed with getting as many points as I can.

You would be very surprised. It's a mix of private parties, randoms not using a mic, and don't forget about the Xbox Live feature that lets you automute every by default except those on your friends list.

server lag probably? I know the servers have steadily gotten worse for me since launch.
The rubberbanding on 360 was sparse and intermittent last week, but this week its now just as bad as BC2 was at launch. I'm tired of dying while in cover.
Right now the 360 servers are always right at capacity.
My guess is that everything will improve when the MW3 players leave BF3 next week.

I've only used it with a few assault rifles so maybe I just haven't experienced its true potential yet.Rad- said:

I have also ran into the invincible players. They literally do not die except for a knife to the back. But as soon as they are killed once, the glitch goes away and can be killed normally. I have seen it a couple times. This is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP.

hehe true. Players also over time get accustomed to the Battlefield formula over time. BC2 improved greatly a while after launch with people knowing what they are supposed to do and less k/d whores.

thats better then the buggy knife glitches I have been getting where you stab them 3 times and it wont kill em. melee code needs some work big time. it is so hit or miss.

R7 server update rolling out to consoles tomorrow.
PC GAF, have you tried playing Tehran CQ 64 to see if the rubber-banding is fixed?

I have officially given up on knifing at anytime other than when the guy is not moving and his back is facing me.commish said:

You know that's pretty much the only time you can get the OHK knife, right? I don't think you can OHK them if they're moving, but you definitely can't if it's from the front. Side seems to be okay.

IRNV is already equipped on most people I get killed to on PC. Is it the same for console?

The_Darkest_Red said:
yes, i give up knifing as well. nothing feels worse then trying to knife a prone player and he turns and kills you while you are stabbing at him.

Here is the post
Battlelog said:Dear everyone!
We have made some fixes and because sharing is caring, we would like to share these changes we are deploying with you.
This is a server patch which means that you don´t have to update anything on your client.
These are the fixes
- Fix for rubber banding
- TDM/SQDM spawn point fix
- crash fixes in end of round
- Fix for connection problem when joining password protected servers
We will deploy these fixes at 09:00 CET which is 8:00 GMT and midnight pacific time on the 3rd of November.
These changes have already made their way to the PC so this time it´s going out for Xbox 360 and PS3.
Enjoy!

Well I just figured you wouldn't get a special animation if you were stabbing them from the front but I didn't know if it was OHK or not. Either way it's worthless because it never seems to hit for me when someone is moving.Anton Sugar said:

I would much rather be able to kill someone at all, with a gun or knife, than just not being able to kill him with a knife. It is incredibly annoying seeing someone go 50-0 because they cannot be killed.KingOfKong said:

file a complaint on the xbox guide. i've seen two players like that. first thought was that it was lag, but when you see two teammates unload whole clips and nothing happens you can be certain that he is hacking. i tried to stab him from behind, but nothing . he took 4 stabs, then turned around and killed me.

Played a full round with it just now, absolutely no rubber-banding whatsoever. Super smooth (UK playing on a German server).

A client-side patch will be needed for that, this is just a server-side patch.purple cobra said:

It depends on the server provider and when they finish testing the client and applying it to their servers.
