I saw you humping a tank today
and then I shot you ;)

:) That round really started fugly (i think i was 0:6 after a few minutes). And i don't like Firestorm. Always get the feeling that i have no cover and get shot from everywhere. Quit not long after you left.

Had a rather good round on caspian afterwards. Was on a 2 men squad with a lvl 2 player and he always spawned on me and stuck with me so we did really good damage and cleared the caps together. That's when the game shines.

Seems to me that i get more and more one-shotted from tanks and helis when i'm in a tank (with 100%).

Just got the PC version of BF3. Is there an easy way to plug in a ps3 or xbox controller JUST for helicopter flying?

Took me around 5 minutes to get it to work (with usb cable, blutooth is possible if your pc/notebook has a adapter/blutooth integrated). Setting it to your taste in BF3 takes a while longer. Jet was ok with pad but heli not so much. Even with my stick heli isn't easy (no z-axis :( )

I bet 99% of the JET pro's are happy with the patch "flareslulz".
Click to expand...

It's funny, because I take out jets all the time XD
A lot of them dont have flares so they dont expect it and even when they do have flares....I still take them out. Sometimes my heat-seekers dont hit but a lot of the time they do.

Cant wait til DICE fixes this on PC

What is DICE actually doing atm besides the new DLC and playing MW3? BF4 ? Any announcements? I don't expect to see a new patch before autumn.

I was playing Gulf of Oman last night, and everyone seems to be spamming flares now. Guess I'm going back to the SMAW and hunting tanks.

Nothing is announced, but obviously the team is working on something. Development teams don't have time to just sit around and not work on a project.

If he wasn't moving its even worse. Aim at his stomach to anticipate the recoil, draw your gun downwards to negate the kick, fire with controlled bursts.

It's sad because it's people like you who obviously needs to get better at aiming that love the suppression and all its effects.

I made this video just for you.

I find this offensive ;)

I obviously know BF3 isn't about one on one gunfights, but they are still in there.

But the game's not based on it like CoD is, so expecting them to be like CoD is stupid.

AN-94 is the same way, there are many guns in this game that make the sniper rifle look like PURE SHIT...
Click to expand...

I used the AN-94 a lot before but its CQC effectiveness got hit a little bit with the patch, the G3's does so much damage that you can just spray with it close range still come out on top in a lot of firefights.

im pretty sure i'll find a way to fuck up the cheating capabilities with this gun.

You're trolling at this point...

I'm debating if I should spend the 2 minutes it'll take to make a "counter" video.
Click to expand...
my "point" was that the guns have ADS spread, so sometimes, even when your aim is RIGHT ON someone, the bullets won't go there. That's fine, because this is a game where those things must be taken into consideration. If I had gone supported fire, that spread would be much much smaller. But for the mere reason this game is like this, complaining about suppression because it injures your ability in a one on one gunfight is ridiculous since there's no such thing as a balanced one on one gun battle. THE GAME WASN'T DESIGNED FOR THOSE. Otherwise, everyone would be one class with one gun and hitscanning.

Edit : Twice the distance, 10 times less spread.

Oh, look. You've completely missed the point. Nice job burst firing with a flash suppressor.

Its only true if you fire full automatic for an extended period of time. In controlled bursts your bullets go where you aim, I shot in near full-auto in the video and the grouping was still very tight for an LMG, recoil played a bigger role than spread.

I know there is spread on every weapons, but its negligible for the first few bullets at moderate range.

Are you kidding me? Who cares if there is spread when firing full auto, when you can fire at 90% of the speed and negate the spread?

Also, flash suppressor does nothing to spread. I forgot to take off the foregrip, which actually makes the spread worse.

Man, being the gunner in an attack heli on Rush can be the most fun thing ever when you're paired with an awesome pilot.
Click to expand...

Yeah, a guy yesterday could fly on the terrain (caspian) as if he had a hover forcefield under the heli. I had my finger on the eject button all the time but he never crashed or touched a tree. I need money to buy me a better stick with a proper z-axis.


Sad thing are the fucks fighting over the heli at the spawn and starting to kill teammates with the jeep. They drive the jeep at you then jump out and the jeep kills you. You die from a "suicide".

Hahah, so while burst firing makes your shots go in a much smaller group you consider it not legitimate because of what? Nothing?

Well keep spraying full auto while not hitting a thing then, if you want to be really stupid.

I have come to the conclusion I am the worst Sniper Recon ever. Its for that reason that I have removed my long ranger rifle and went to a semi-automatic. Seems funny breaking behind enemy lines and planting a Spawn Point for my team to use.

I didn't have any rage in this game until this patch. I don't even know what was done in the patch, but I just seem to get nailed in so many WTF moments. Most noticeable ones are unloading a clip and not getting any/many hits, and that's aiming down sights too.

I seem to be getting nailed by the AN-94 or the AK-74m both with heavy barrels. Before it would be the Famas with supressor, so something has changed.

Where can I find the best info on opinions of overpowered weapons and attachments?

Damn, AR + heavy barrel + M26 Dart really is insane. The range is incredible. If you play a TDM match you'd pretty much have to try to not wind up in the top 3.

From what I've heard, if you use the underslung with the M26 Dart and HB it glitches and the HB affects the darts of the M26.

Is the G36C overpowered now? Lots more people seem to be using it since the patch. Also, did the L96's accuracy get nerfed?

Not enjoying the MG36 as much now, recoil has become pretty ridiculous even with the foregrip, and when you add annoying overdone suppression effects to the recoil, you have fuck all chance 1-on-1

I'd like to see a map with a river going straight through it, so boats could actually have an effect

The G36C has always been a solid gun. I remember some talk about people moving to it from the A-91 since it felt more controllable or something. As for the MG36, the flash suppressor really brings down the recoil quite a bit. I'm pretty sure they took away the extended mags anyway, so rock that 50 round Beta C and fire into peeps.

I despise the current suppression mechanic.
Click to expand...

What's wrong with it? When my screen gets blurry, I just know to look for cover and start looking for someone aiming at me. It doesn't usually end in someone getting the drop on me unless they have a silencer. Normally they end up on my minimap and then I can try to get a bead on them.

By the way, I got to play that small tower map from the close quarters pack at PAX East.

It was 8 v 8 TDM.

Not bad. Felt like CoD with destructibility.

The balance is alot better than before, but once everyone starts running around with the M26 it's going to be pretty shitty. I hope they patch it quickly.

more people running around with the M26 would be awesome. less engineers!
