So who's using the MAV to also kill people? One of my friends is approaching 150 kills with it over the last 4 days!

Gain some speed and just ram them, I guess, sometime the MAV lifts people up in the air as it kill them, damn funny.

Do the IRNV scopes add the "scope glint" effect?
A little off-topic but I'm somewhat puzzled by the animosity towards COD and its playerbase in here. I mean, I love the shit out of BF2 and BF3 as I did MW1 and to a lesser extent, MW2. I'm not planning on picking up MW3 but there is absolutely no doubt that the series has reliably been a really solid shooter with excellent gunplay (I mean, we're not talking about Uncharted here) and some very innovative gameplay ideas. Who didn't enjoy their first attack chopper or AC-130 killstreak?
The playerbase may not be fantastic but can you truly say BF is any different? When you have games gunning for the mainstream audience (which BF3 clearly is), idiots will inevitably pop up, like it or not.
Is it really necessary to pick sides all the time?

That's still incredibly small with only 3 flags. The 32 player versions of Karkand and Oman had 6 and 5 flags respectively in BF2. They seem to be basing the regular conquest maps on the 16 player versions and not the 32 player ones as they should. Heck, Gulf of Oman even had 4 flags with 16 players for BF2 so this is even less than that. Now I'll be playing on PC with 64 players so I'm not all that concerned, but this is still really bad for the console players out there (and even worse for the PC players who prefer to play on 32 player servers).Keasar said:

Holy shit did they improved the IRNV over the beta, at last before on daylight were more or less hard identify targets and visibility were worst, now on the same map (metro) the contrast between objects and targets is way more clear, I thought it was OK on the beta, now it's ridiculous.
Also the SKS it's the worst gun on the game, what a piece of shit.
That jet pilot sure was flying quite slowly without a proper reason.

Personally I don't have any hate toward CoD or those that play. I still find it fun to play from time to time and I like watching the videos of people playing but I've steadily become less and less interested in actively playing. It's with FPS as an entire genre when it gets right down to it. The BF series is the last one to hold my interest with any significance. It really started when I picked up Bad Company 2 for PC on a whim (good buy looking back) . It just clicked more with me and how I play games. In MMORPGs I liked to play support classes while grouped. I can transfer that style of play somewhat over to BFBC2 and now BF3 while killing. There have been some matches, especially in BFBC2, where I've done nothing but act as a medic by running all over the map healing, bringing people back to life, and providing suppressing fire (BF3). I like that and I simply can't do that in CoD or any other FPS out there.
I will say though that I expect MW3's campaign to be entertaining. Looking forward to watching video of it.

Why are some people so incredibly stupid? No, really.
If you get ahold of the 2-seat badass Attack Helicopter, and you're flying alone, and then somebody spawns in it with you to help you and be your gunner.
DO NOT FUCKING CRASHLAND IT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ENEMIES BASE, RUN OUT TO CAP A FLAG OR MCOM AND DIE.
So many people use the choppers to just go to enemies base, then when there, they jump out. Sigh. Not using it for either spawnpoint or support. Just, a means to get to A from B, then ditch it.
Makes me so sad.

So, according to Demize99, this is a feature and not a bug.... good to know!

Uhu - they should totally make you check a box where you promise to "work with my teammates in order to reach the objectives set by the game to the best of my abilites" and only put me in squads with people who promise to do just that.
and then they can put the people who only wants to do their own thing in separate squads, because i do get that sometimes you just want to do your own thing or try shit out just for fun.

Well, it will make IRNV a bit more bearable but it's still very noticiable.

BF has never been a really serious game so its a bit in theme, but yeah. especially at the start of the match when owning an attack helicopter is vital to quickly get a hold of points and suppress the enemy with a barrage of helicopter fire. 90% of games I see people jump in and eject from then over a flag.KAOz said:

At that distance it's not even a factor, it barely covers partially the body, also, it stays the same on more obscure ambients?

Yay flashlight fix. Course I rarely encounter flashlights anymore at least on pc. It seems kind of pointless with everyone using the IRNV making it useless

Some staged jet stealing: 2 snipers on caspian tower were shooting to a ultraslow jet flying in their direction, eventually the pilot gets headshooted and the sniper jumps and steals the jet.
