Got a roadkill with the jet earlier. I flew right by the chopper and I think an enemy jumped out. I really wish we had battle recorder.

The M40A5 is just awful. I was looking forward to unlocking it but ended up very disappointed because it takes up HALF THE SCREEN during the sprinting animation. So annoying.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Was about to get the mcom defend ribbon for the first time last night (last ribbon I need for the whole set) when I get disconnected from EA online. Fuck was I pissed!
Why is this ribbon a pain in the arse to get? In bad company 2 you only had to kill an attacker near the mcom for it to register towards the ribbon.

So I've just been a machine lately. Support class+M249+foregrip+suppression+HOLO+expanded mag farming Operation Metro = MASS LEVELING! I had a few games today where i was god-like, one I went 68-7. Most of the time I'm finishing 4 to 1, usually with over 30 kills and single digit deaths. Grenades, suppression and rearming my team = max leveling its unreal.
All I play now is Metro only servers to farm XP. I went from level 16 to 21 in like 2 hours.

Farming XP on Op Metro...? Really? I don't care if I get through levels slowly, actually is better for me, the game will last longer. I found in BC2 that when I unlocked everything I had less motivation to play it.

Legally, your dude is likely going to serve some time or at best just get dishonorably discharged. Of course in magic game story land one can say he might have been let go and made a hero silently. Your Russian counterpart who also went against his people is shown with people coming after him likely to arrest him kills himself.

15 mins Strike at Karkand
13 mins Gulf of Oman
Both are PS3 and the 3-flag map versions. Conquest Assault, at least the Gulf vid.
EDIT: Warning -- god-awful aiming within.

There were, at least on the way to the MEC base there was one over a river, but I didn't recognize the map at all from that footage.
Btw, are the console Conquest versions going to have 3flags on gulf of oman and Karkand only?
What next? cut of half of wake Island and make both teams spawn on the island?

Demize claimed that Karkand on consoles has 5 flags. So either he's wrong (extremely possible) or there are scalable maps on consoles.

I hadn't been able to watch them when I posted them, sorry. It's funny because the video description says the publisher gave permission to post these. Why do they not find good players for this kind of promotion???

I got 2 kills out of like 10 tries. It is harder than it should be.
They're fucking terrible. I want to see the maps but holy shit they're awful. The guy playing has to be purposefully playing poorly. I refuse to believe that anyone getting to attend an BF3 event is actually this bad. I'm not even a particularly good player but at least I can hit things.Seanspeed said:

Well at the very least they should give us the 32 player layout of the classic maps (5 caps on Gulf and I guess 5 on Karkand) Wake NEEDS 5 flag points to even work. If they go below they could simply throw that map aways cause it won't work, simple as that.

How are the new nvidia drivers? Less driver resets?
Were do you get your kills with the LMG? All I see are grenades, rockets and 40mm grenades flying everywhere. And tons of support guys, true, but where's the shooting action happening? Escalators? Blown up. Stairs? Blown up. I could imagine that there could be a bloodbath once the Americans get the ticket hall or cafe, but 3/4ths of my CQ metro kills are with stuff blowing up.alphaNoid said:
Not sure if I should continue with the Type 88 or start unlocking stuff for the M249? Without graphs it's hard to know which gun to use.
PS: why is everybody using holo over the red dot? It's ugly. Is ADS faster or what?

Holo is sexy, dawg. I like the sight picture. It's also 1.5x, compared to RDS 1x.

Although Firestorm and Karg are nice they are hella flat with not much between flags. The overall atmosphere of those two maps makes me think of BC maps like Arica and Oasis. More urban environment in a stretched out map with more variation in heigth. Something I am missing in BF3.

Firestorm is surrounded by beautiful mountains--it's a shame they couldn't work more interesting terrain into the design. That stretch of field between D and E is a bit boring, though it's actually a decent flank, since it's rarely paid attention to. Sometimes you can catch 3-4 dudes running across out in the open.
But yeah, verticality is sorely missing in these maps.

Thanks for the vids! Yeah, gotta agree with everyone. This is one of the worst people I've seen "play" in a long while...heck, my wife could play better than him!
I can't wait for the new maps! Here's hoping the patch will come before it; and if we're lucky, Battlcorder, too!
I hope we get a steady stream of new content every 2-3 months. The 9 maps are good, but I really want more.
The motion sensor is sooo good. The fact that you can pick it up and reposition it makes it that much better. Once they buff the UMP again I think recon will be my new favorite class. I think one of the game tips mentioned that it can be avoided if you "move slowly". Do they mean if you crouch move or does walking also count as "moving slowly"?
Maybe a PC player playing who's not used to console controls. Speaking of which, is that how the maps play on 24 players? Feels really empty.

It has zoom? Hm, I guess I'll have to try it. I still don't like the giant circle, though.Anton Sugar said:
It's crazy what's going on on-screen, shaking trees, flying papers, debris etc. I think I see someone, but it's nothing. It's crazy to look at this and BC2 in comparison.
