I got a few kills in the jet by just shooting at the big red box that says "Attacker Spawn." Ended up blowing up some kind of vehicle with two or three people in it.
I wish there were a cockpit view without the cockpit graphics, because it is hard to see with half (or more) of the screen covered by the cockpit...

Anyone else find that the aiming and turning isn't going as fluid as in the beta?? (on ps3)
When i turn down the reso to 576p it's way more responsive so probably got something to do with framerate/performance.
Seriously sucks, cause i had no such issue in the beta!

I wish I was home paying instead of sitting here at work. 
This game has the best audio I have ever heard in a game.

anybody know how to get your loadouts to save? (PC version). I hate having to set everything up every time I join a server.

Strange. They should save by default. They do for me.

Geez, Battlelog update sound made me think my computer was glitching.
Anyway, do you have to sign up for the stupid gravatar thing to change your profile picture?

It's been mentioned a couple of times here in this thread by PS3 players. That the controls don't feel like they did in the beta. It seems like they've added some funky acceleration to the aiming stick. Don't know why they changed it since the beta controls were just about perfect to me.Razor 81 said:
Since I don't have the game yet, I can't log onto the Battlelog forums but it seems like other people have brought it up. I have no idea if DICE have said anything about this yet (besides that "you're on crack" tweet).
You said you changed the resolution in the game, how?
Looks like the folks from Alienware are giving away free Battlefield 3 Dogtags Codes. All you have to do is create an Alienware Arena Account, get your Key and redeem it on Origin to unlock the Alienware Dogtags. But be advised, there are only 6000 Keys left so you better rush over to the Alienware Website. Make your mark on the battlefield, as every time you make a kill, your dog tags make an appearance within the game.
http://www.alienwarearena.com/giveaway/battlefield-3-dog-tag-item-giveaway/
1. Create or login to an Alienware Arena account.
2. GET KEY
3. Open EA's Origin client (or download it here if you don't already have it installed).
4. Click the cog icon, select "Redeem Product Code" and enter your dog tag code.
5. Your dog tog will be unlocked the next time you play Battlefield 3.

technically...platoons have around...30 men?
They should call it a company...but anyway...

Platoons have around 40ish men, 3 line squads of 9-12ish and a weapons squad of around 7-9 or so, depending on type of infantry unit/branch.
I'm not talking fucking realism here, this is Battlefield, not ARMA.
cackhyena said:
When you have 2 guys in jets and 2 guys in a chopper on one team that only leaves 8 guys at best to duke it out on the ground. Levels with aircraft are generally the largest in the game, and 8v8 feels pretty damn empty oftentimes. If the aircraft actually had an impact on the battle it would be acceptable, but it's just wasted player slots when they may as well not exist to all the poor assault/support/engineer players trying to cap a point with 4 pilots and 3 snipers on their team.
I'm sure on PC it is less of an issue.

That's how the American Army infantry setup is, yeah.
My unit was layed out that way.
Some units like Stryker units you add 2 for driver/VC for the ICV.
Mechanized infantry is a bit different per vehicle.

I suggest banning colethemole from the GAF server for constantly killing me? It's the only right thing to do.
That's how I like to see the mole.

Mulligan said:U.K Gaf. Anyone order from Tesco Entertainment? My order says dispatched but no money has been taken out of my account and i've only just put money into the account so there was nothing for them to withdraw.. seems odd. Hopefully this leads to me getting it for free..
Tesco did this to me for Halo Reach but they eventually took the money about a week after release.

Either way, it's semantics, and wholly unimportant to the subject at hand.

Let's ban DTKT while we're at it.

I'm talking about guys that rank up way too fast. You can't do that without an obnoxious amount of hours played in a short amount of time.
Be advised, i suck at this game... Seriously 99% of the time i cant see who is shooting at me, i wish there was an option to turn off the fog/haze in mp, it just makes spotting enemies so hard, i got a 58plasma and had to crank the contrast up so i could see a little better, also anyone else thnk dice should have given more options as far as player indicators? I think id prefer a larger triangle over a players name rather than their name in super small font, anywho i guess i gotta play a little more conservative rather than jumping in John Rambo style

For all those saying jets are useless, try rocket pods for some A to G goodness. I actually prefer them over the ATGMs.

Yeah, I really can't wait for the classic BF2 maps. There's no way they could screw that over. All those maps you listed tunnel everyone into a meatgrinder. They're better than BC2 maps in that it's actually possible to flank and avoid some fire but the maps still feel a little too tight for me.
