On another note, the LAV in this is friggin fast on the move. :eek: It can take down cover walls with shells or run through them.
 
err i'm right in saying that you can strafe and run in bc2 but you cant strafe and sprint right?

cause i've never noticed not being able to strafe when moving outside of sprint.

Nah the reason is below. Tactical lol, how can it be tactical when the enemy can spot and see you through all objects in the game world.

This makes complete sence, if you are spotted then u must hide; it stops things like the knife killers in MW2. You can still flank effectively, especially in the subway. I shot through a door off to the side and took 3 US marines out who were all prone looking the wrong way. Its probably just the early days when everyone's a noob before they learn which places are safe and which are choakpoints.

Yeah sprinting in bc2 you can only use your mouse to turn.
In bf3 you can use your left/right as well.

Reason I don't like it is because people were vulnerable in bc2 while sprinting. Now they can dodge fire a lot easier

This will increase our skill level further:p

Seriously for people who have been playing CS Source, Quake etc this should be no problem. Infact this should improve our coordination and agility further:cool:

Is it realistic though? I always thought that the trade off you had for sprinting in BC2 worked well as you couldn't sprint strafe and shoot like a madman.

But it took the gaming fun away. This also meant before you could even react, you would be killed. I am sure there are other factors aswell which aren't very realistic in BF3.

However we want the game to have longetivity in terms of gaming fun. Restricting the movement will make the game boring in the long run. People like to enjoy the thrill of fast paced action!!:cool:
 
Can someone confirm they mean you can strafe while SPRINTING in bf3 as people have just said "while running" you're always running.

How do you know you have been spotted? Don't say being shot at because sometimes people spot you going behind a building and cannot, but others will soon.

Personally I don't like these modes, the whole spotting thing effs me off, just like regen health it's a horrible addition to the genre and does nothing but simply give other people an advantage for ..well, doing nothing at all. Just.. "oh look an enemy not in my line of sight". When you try to be sneaky, then the whole other team instantly knows your location, that's just a load of pap to me :p

But I've read in BF3 if you go behind an object the marker no longer updates so that's better.

It's the same system as BC2 in the alpha with that addition of the spotted enemy squad leader having a star above his head. Check the videos out on youtube for confirmation.
