if your on xbone I'd offer in return for a second assault assignment. I commited a week to doing nothing but trying to get kills from the towers just to spend a week going ~5/30. I should have been on suicide watch, talk about high blood pressure and temper tantrums.

Have had no problems playing on the xbone but most of the people here play on ps4.
I've stopped trying, along with the UCAV. I'm never going to get them.
What platform are you guys on?
UCAV took a few tries. A lot of tries, actually.
Tower challenge, luckily, went through first try. Lowest platform, L98A1. Respawn beacon.
You don't need to be ON the tower, just IN it.
If you're doing it on Caspian, that's MUUUUUCH easier to trap than Firestorms.
CUAV nerf makes that one pointless anyway. You're not missing out.

Played a game on Paracel Storm last night, it was a clan server and all the clan members were on the other team. This one guy got 70 kills and 0 deaths from flying in the Fantan.
I once got 30-0 doing the same on Lost Islands with JDAMs but god that guy went from being impressive to downright annoying fast.

Anyone else annoyed Dargon's Teeth comes out around the same time as the Destiny Beta?

Caspian always get blown up in the first minute of the match. Do you mean I can get my 4 kills in it while its on the the ground? That would be a nice work around.
Tried Firestorm again. I swear as soon as 1 enemy knows your up there, the entire opposing team shows up and guards the tower the rest of the game.
Parcel storm chopper ho's are the hardest to swat. I love hiding on E with c4 at the chopper spawn. If I'm having a bad game, and see a chopper ho, I'll resort to doing this the whole match. Nothing is more satisfying than watching the same guy spawn in E waiting for the chopper over and over, only to blow him up as soon as he gets in over and over.
No. Faceless posted his ordeal about it back in February or so. You'd have to look back.
The basic gist is:
-The ENTIRE tower on Caspian counts. The TOWER itself has to stay up. If it's down the BUILDING/underground will count (not all of it probably but the area where the tower was/the ladder up to the elevator will count, IIRC)
-SNIPER DOES NOT HAVE TO BE USED FOR THE KILLS. Use a G36C or another carbine, or a shotgun, or any other weapon. You only need kills from/in the tower. Once you've got those, you can get your sniper kills from ANYWHERE ELSE on the map.
Holy shit, you killed someone.

I got it on Firestorm in a Hardcore server, on my first try that way. I must've been super lucky or something because it felt super easy that way. I was even able to stay up and go 12-0 in the tower before someone finally sniped me out of it.
I don't know how people like Hardcore, its a sniper/camper nightmare.
The only real way to fix the sniper problem that I can think of would be to allow custom servers to set class limits. Snipers themselves are very balanced, if anything they may be a bit underpowered. It's the sheer quantity of them in each match that makes them annoying I find.
That's just my opinion though.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
I find myself (aggressive-play) sniping quite a bit lately just because there are so many of them. They are annoying.
Nearly done with the M39 DMR. About ~9 more headshots to get. Then it leaves the Chinese DMR and their respective carbines for the Chinese/'Merica assignments.
Then I gotta do Shotguns and finishing the Swedish assignment. Oy. I'm not looking forward to having to carry around the Chinese DMR for a while.

I would actually like it if they just removed the DMRs from the game.
Such a shitty spammy weapon. :-/
Then I wouldn't have any problems with actual snipers or their numbers on a given map.
It's really the pew pew pew that drives me crazy from these noobs.
Great games btw. You did miss this one as it happened in the game after you left.

That was not luck my friend... that's just BC2 skill in your DNA. Remember the good ol' days when you actually had to aim rockets? Yes, yes you do.

for those trying to get the eagles nest assignment. here's my 2c
works for either map
look for a server with low player count + high ticket count. This will give you less people trying to bring the tower down (in Caspian) and longer to get the assignment done.
hard-core helps you stay alive longer also (no mini map)
run recon with claymores + magnum hand gun
go up the tower, if there is someone else there shoot in back with rifle rather than melee.
lay claymore at elevator/ ladder
if someone else takes control of the tower and is doing this, switch to another class like assault and take him out.
repeat.
if your no good with the sniper rifle, use SRAWs from a tower.
by starting with a low player count, you can focus on getting the kills from the tower, then by the time you have those under your belt, the server will be filling up allowing you to move around and get the sniper ribbon

Hehe, well at least there's something decent in this game underneath all the tons of dirt.
Just felt like: "there he is, there he is, there he.... nope, he's gonna be there! blame!" and holy crap, he actually was.
With a shot like that, I normally never even stand there and watch to see how close it'll get, but I somehow needed to do that for this one.
You can see I was even too shocked to tbag the poor bastards.
About 5 seconds later mancunian shot down the second chopper that was heading straight for us, but I was still out of it, so I didn't even realise it before it was down, so I didn't capture that one...

I did that assignment on Operation Firestorm. Landed on the very top of the tower from helicopter jump. There's a bit you can land on that isn't affected if someone sets off the burner. From there you're in quite a good position; especially for sniping people on the rooftops of the warehouses.

Alright, it finally arrived! Add me and let's dong.
Wait, today is the 7th
tomorrow is the 8th
oh man we're getting close
Holy shit, amazing night of Obliteration.
I fucking love this mode.
One game (PStorm) we armed two points within about 7 minutes, enemy team snagged the bomb and took it back to their carrier and tried to go for kills. Lame, but hah we won anyway.

Classic Seks hate. Just can't stand to see me succeed.
In other news, finally finished the campaign, not on PC though. PS4 didn't eat my saves over the two days I took to do it, so that's a plus. The dumb parts managed to not ruin the not-dumb parts.

Apparently CTF has been reduced to 32 players.
k m8
There's one more pack to go after it...I can't see DICE dropping the price until later this year
Oh Yeah, I forgot about that. Also I guess with the release of Hardline I think thats when BF4 Premium will go on sale
Thanks to the CTE it already got nerfed hard.
No patch notes yet =/
Another change i read about was a new icon for the Battle Pick Ups, hopefully they can actually be picked up now.

Yeah but did they fix the list of maps in the server browser not being all capped uniformly?
Downloading the 1733 MB update / patch for PS4 now.
Will this do anything to the single player campaign ?
edit:
Yes that is true [ on PS4 in NA here] CTF is now 32 players on all the Second Assault maps. I checked U.S. East, U.S. West and Europe servers.
