IRNV is all i've been using since i got it unlocked for my US American Recon!TheSeks said:
I like both of those, that's why i said "one of the weapons that feel just right". the M416 is good as well.CatPee said:
But they definitely lowered the weapon damages after the beta which they said they wouldn't. And the beta felt great in that department, every weapon felt useful (even though they didn't feel that different) but now you've got crap guns like the AN-94 or almost all PDWs.
They're next to useless now.
Yea, and in the beta, people died stupidly quick. It really doesn't work well for the type of game that Battlefield is. But besides that, even the starting weapons feel great to use. The stat differences between the guns in BF3 are minimal and their main differences are usually tradeoffs for recoil/fire rate.
If the differences are minimal, how can one gun be OP?CatPee said:
And high weapon damage weapons work especially well for a game like Battlefield 3 because you can be healed and revived.
If i flank a group of 3-4 enemies and manage to sneak up on them, then i expect to kill them more or less unnoticed.
This isn't quake or UT where it's about maximizing damage, predicting the movement of a single player, etc. That wouldn't be balanced due to unlockable perks and attachments.
This should be about tactics and flanking and those should be rewarded. Bad Company 2 on PC failed at that since it sometimes took a whole magazine to kill a single person after they nerfed everything.
And don't tell me to play hardcore, because i don't want to miss out on basic features like a health indicator, map and spotting.
I'm not saying BF3 is bad the way it is, i'm just saying the gunplay in the beta with higher damage output felt better and more rewarding.

They didn't lower the damage, they fixed the bugs that caused excess damage erroneously..nimrod said:

The differences between the majority of guns being minimal doesn't stop a single gun from being more powerful than the rest of the pack. The F2000 has the damage output of an AEK-971 (damned good) with even less recoil by default than the AEK with a foregrip on. Normally, the guns trade off a bit of one of those two characteristics for another, but the F2000 gets both.
In the chance that you do manage to successfully flank and want to go unnoticed, then toss a suppressor on any 30-rounds/mag gun. I don't think it takes any more than 6/7 bullets to take down an enemy at close range. If you're somehow having problems hitting those 3-4 enemies due to excessive spraying, then switch the fire mode to burst/single shot and tap fire away. And for what it's worth, Hardcore still retains the map and spotted enemies still show up on it.

What's with the GAF server being set to Conquest Large with an 8 player limit?
.nimrod said:
WAT
Fuck no. That essentially makes every Assault-Medic dead weight, every Support with C4 have no chances of getting close to a tank, Engineers getting killed before they fire the rocket off, and Recons get to have 1HK rifles. Nobody would be able to make a run for cover or rush and arm the M-COM, and nobody would be able to disarm it unless the area is completely ridden of enemies, which it seldom is.
Well, there IS a certain other FPS franchise with what you're looking for, if you're interested.

Anyone else having an issue with laser guided jet missiles visibly hitting the target you've locked on to (tank, jeep, whatever), and yet not getting anything for it? Not even a hit X?
It's happening to me more often than I can count. I'd go so far as to say it's happening to about a quarter of my missile hits.
When the SOFLAM is locking a target, it still happens, but with less regularity. Maybe 1 in 8?

they didn't want to fix the roadkill hitbox...Mafro said:
Okay, I take it back. That's a little disappointing as you don't crumble to the next floor. Unless that's by design/real destruction happens to do that with gravity/weight etc. But blowing a hole in the roof only to free fall to the ground is a bit... :/
People are using frags with the shotguns? I might have to give that a try today. Most of the time it seems like buckshot is best for close range and slugs for long range. Although hitting someone in the head twice for it to count as a headshot with slugs is a little annoying.
I also find just switching to any other quick fire weapon gets me a better KD ratio, Even though i do love the shotgun style of play.

No, no, no.
I had a stupidly fun game in Metro 64 Conquest with 25 M320 kills and several double and tripples, unlocked smoke grenades, some Assault gun, the UMP and got 17 ribbons overall and alt+f4´d out the round AFTER that, because I didn´t feel like continuing, it´s late.
Now all my progress is gone? Fuuuuck, why didn´t anybody tell me? Why couldn´I be arsed to wait till the killcam was gone and I could leave with Quit?! Damn me.
Edit: Phew, afer several minutes and a ton of refresh they´re here. Thought I lost half a level bar of progress there.
I was laughing my ass of so hard during that game. "Hey, maybe shot a grena...*double kill* hey, can´t happen twi...*double kill* *6 kill assists*. First M416 service star as well, my first service star in this game. Isn´t nearly as fun as American, though, even though some guys had over forty kills by the time I left
I had a ton of revives and deaths, but hardly any kills.

yeah, the anti air tank on Canals is nuts. It's common to see someone rack up an easy 10 to 15 kills on the first base, or a good 30 to 50 if the game goes all the way to the end. I say the defender should only get it on the last base or 2, or at least not on the first.

They just need to re-balance it. Change the damage on it or something like that.computers putin' said:

Or it spawns once and that's it. In addition to proper counters for it. Javalin can't hit it from the boat and heading out if it's at the proper spot is madness because it'll shut down advances in good hands.

they need to just make it not spawn on the first base.

I am fucking done with this game now, disconnections all the fucking time. Just tried to play through a co-op mission with my friend only to be disconnected both times, disconnected every other match if not multiple times through it. Nothing else times out multi-player wise except BF3.

Isn't it scripted in SP as well?mr_nothin said:
And the person answering the question would have to be completely retarded to think that someone was asking about singleplayer when no one had any idea they would reuse that asset in singleplayer and people only knew of it's existence in multi. So yes, they are liars.

Metro. Get in an apartment building. Set a T-UGS in the stairwell, then go to the top floor and set a becon. You can blast everyone down below you on the street from the window and the sensor tells you if someone is coming up the stairs so you are ready for them.
And if someone does get lucky enough to get past you and kill you, just spawn at the beacon upstairs then walk down and blast that same guy in the face. He never....... NEVER sees it coming!

I had buckshot on. Found it was best for close range but have at it and good luck. Took me about 2 hours going from basically zero to the MAV.

The tower is detructible on Rush, if you people played Rush you'll knew already lol (I don't think I saw it destroyed yet) so they were right, but at the same time totally misleading.
Also is the tower on SP? I don't remember at all.....
OldJadedGamer said:
You don't even need to do that. Just go with Metro in the tunnels on defense of Rush. The middle tunnel is a good place for the shotgun and you can camp the area and get kills.
The shotgun is crazy good with the buckshot default. So I'm scratching my head on how he's having issues getting Frag rounds, unless it's on PC... *shrug*
If it is, I haven't noticed. IIRC it's a ticket count event just like singleplayer.

Look closer, shotguns/LMG some SMG's have them. That might be it ?OG Kush said:
Just get kills with them, it will unlock

I don't have much experience with BF in the past, but my experiences have been not that great. It always felt like everyone was just snipers and I was target practice. I'd run 5 min, sniped. Repeat.
Granted I've only played on console, but has this changed in BF3?
