Jets are lame. Someone behind you, that is it. Nothing you can do. Totally and absolutely pointless. Have found out the stupid 'Turn quicker' trick but still people can make 180 degree turns and gun you out of the sky before you can even turn and SEE them let alone aim at them at shoot back. There is something SERIOUSLY wrong with Jets that some people know about and others do not. There is no way someone can fly past me in the opposite direction, turn, find me, aim and shoot before I can even finish a turn and see them. The lamest console control mechanism I have ever witnessed. Same old bull physics from BC2 in the helos also. Whole aircraft flipping upside down because you get hit by 1 bullet, spinning wildly out of control by small arms fire etc etc. Air in BF3 is a total and utter disappointment - Just delete it from the game because it makes no difference to any objective on the map. It's its own little side game which occurs while everyone else does objectives.

Jets have a buff incoming, they haven't said what yet but have confirmed that. Not sure why you're having problems turning unless you're using mouse+keyboard, i found it frustrating until this morning when i picked up a 360 pad.

Also quitting with Support. USELESS CLASS with USELESS weapons. Absolutely damn pointless playing it. Nobody but RPGing spamming nab engineers need ammo so as per BC2 waste of time playing it unless you want to spam explosives. If you use the LMGs they are woefully underpowered and woefully inaccurate. If you use the rifles they are just as bad but with more recoil. Put them in single shot and they do less damage per bullet than a pistol and you need to hit register someone 10 times in the centre mass to kill them. Trash class.

The class obviously isn't for you and sounds like it's just as well you're giving up on it as it's not for run and gun. I do really well when on Support just from giving suppressing fire when my side is pushing and also able to hold off choke points practically solo, all the while racking up kills. All the large magazine LMG's really need the Bipod out for accuracy and when can be utter beasts. Even in matches where i don't get all that many kills my score is usually up there in the top few due to all the 50 points from suppressive fire each time others get the kills.

If anything they'll probably get nerfed as a buff certainly isn't needed.

They will not be changing the jets control mechanism,. you can guarantee that. I am certainly not buying a POS console controller either.

As for bipods, I delete them from customisation. If I had 1 pence for every time it deploys it when I want to quickly scope and I get killed while muppet is pulling our bipod legs I would be rich.

The field of view with it deployed is also stupid and means you are going to be killed before you can even readjust in anything but a corridor. Even with it deployed accuracy at anything beyond 50 yards is **** poor, just get whacked by EVERY other class who have decent rifles. I swear I am shooting rubber bullets as support.

I think BF3 could wind up the biggest disappointment of the century. Give me back a M14 Mod 0 from BC2 where I can actually aim with it properly and shoot. None of this spamfest bull.

I agree on the bipod thing and I think a extra button just for that would solve the problem.
 
decided to give sniping another go, got the x12 scope which is better but sniping seems a bit hit or miss sometimes theres bullet drop and sometimes there isnt, plus the dmg seems a bit off. was about 10 foot away from someone and sniped him in the neck and only did 49% dmg

Just like BC2 then.

DICE dropped the ball then on consistent bullet mechanics and have done so yet again.

Either you have bullet drop, or you do not. Not sometimes.

The chevrons etc in scopes are just for show because you will never need to use them.
 
The thing was on damavand peak on rush i was barely able to hit anyone when they werent moving and then it would have to be 2 shots to kill them, then on the last part where they needed to parachute down i got about 4-5 headshots, before they reached saftey.
 
theres nothing wrong with the jets, if you think there is then you are doing it wrong lol.

http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/soldier/SpookyWillow/vehicles/176281178/pc/ ranked 11th in the world at time of typing this :P

once you get some unlocks its very easy to stay up if you can actually fly, you have to change your loadout depending on the enemy and how they play. yes there is a way you can turn sharply but i wont be spilling that one :P

same as support, your doing it wrong. you should be pretty far back in a decent vantage point when using the bipod, rips the enemy to shreds from miles away:)
 
Damm it just got back from a night out and my BF3 is still download 1 hour left....... What are the helicopters like are they same in beta? they felt a bit heavy yo fly compared to BF2

LOL Sin_Chase. You really hate this game so much stop playing it. SIMPLES!

I for one absolutely love it. I love all the vehicles, especially the attack helos. I love the look of it, the feel of it, the sounds of it. I just love it. If it was a woman I would marry it, who knows maybe if I took my copy to Vegas I could make that happen....

You should play something you like, not something you just want to play to come on here to moan about :)

What a silly post. I hardly think he's playing the game just so he can moan. He's expressing his disappointment at certain aspects of a game he was looking forward to...nothing wrong with expressing negative opinions in this thread.

And it's not quite as 'SIMPLES' (sigh) as you would have us believe. Presumably he's hoping for patches and to discover a map / class combination that he actually enjoys, rather than sacking off the entire game on your suggestion. Even if he was planning to give the game up, why does this preclude him from offering his opinion?

JETS ARE TOOOOO ARCAADEYYYYYYY

Landing is funny seing as you can splat down anywhere you want and take off with one metre of ground inront of you lol -_-


I liked how jets were in bf2 handleing wise.The flight ceilings are Crap also i forgot the name of the map but its a small town and the us spawn on a carrier, the flight ceiling is SO LOW your so low to the ground when you stall on that map.
If bf3 had the flight mechanics of bf2 the looks of now and some of the extras like the way the jets shake etc it would be great.

BUT NOOOOooooo They had to make jets in bf3 like playing Tom Clancy's HAWX!!!



Btw im hella mad.
