What is the name of the Ocuk platoon? I've searched for ocuk and overclockers but no such luck.

overclockers uk

There are 3 i believe, and 2 are full and the third one is filling up

Munimentum · 29 Oct 2011 at 23:33

Ah found it, thank you

EDIT: do we need to post anywhere to let whoever is in charge know who we are on these forums? As my id on bf3 is different.

Overclockers UK and Overclockers UK #2. Both are full though. Is there a #3 or is someone going to make it?

Edit: Too slow. Applied.

Thanks, found it 2 seconds before you posted

Have you guys noticed that platoons #1 and #2 have nearly identical stats? thought that was pretty cool

Most rediculess question ever, but just had a random thought in my mind as i hate hackers, (used to run lots of cs 1.4 - c:ss servers years ago) and thinking in investing in a BF3 server with my old clan from back in the day,

By looking at that screenshot of the crosshair hack thing so that when not zoomed in they can aim better, whats stopping people just putting a byro pen dot in the middle of there monitor or something to aim better?

Some of us should get together on teamspeak or other similar program to get some communication and teamwork going.

Can someone explain to me how to fly a jet with a mouse on PC? It's absolute **** unless you have a mousemat the size of a runway! (no pun intended). I don't want to have to buy a joystick just to fly!

I bought a cheap joystick to try fly better on bf2, it didnt work, i found it harder than mouse.

I have a razor mouse, and befor flying, i turn my sensitivity right up using the on the fly settings, (press a button on side of mouse and scroll up) as is the same when in a tank so you can turn the cannon quicker, and then all is good.

But i got to admit, in a jet on BF3 isnt half as good as flying in bf2. my personal oppinion, the maps seem, .. not "too small" but too centred in one place, all the infintry action is in one place, and there is nothing on the outside of the land/infantry battle :/ so if you get taken down in the air and have to abandon aircraft and are outside the battlezone, dead. or if you land just inside the battle zone, 5 min walk to the nearest battle. there aint flags scattered across maps which kinda sucks

Some good games tonight all.

overclick · 29 Oct 2011 at 23:56

I remember 10 years ago playing a game with a dot of tipex as an experiment, sadly it worked.

Sleeven88 · 29 Oct 2011 at 23:58

Been playing tonight with a Razer Nostromo. Absolutely love it! Maybe its because im an ex console gamer, but this has improved my gameplay 10 fold. Get one

Freddie1980 · 29 Oct 2011 at 23:58

So how does BF3 compare to other onlne FPS's? The only online FPS that I really enjoyed was Modern Warfare 1 in hardcore mode, does BF3 compare well or better in peoples opinions?

Mr Krugga · 29 Oct 2011 at 23:58

I like the Bronken server, quality gameplay when you find a right squad.

Shame about the occasional lagging on larger maps and getting disconnected.

Flying a jet on BF2 was a pain as well. You need a joystick, or at least an XBOX controller.

Yes! Just played against you I think.

I was in a very good squad with mehuk and unchillbro.
