BC2 used Vertical FoV as I think BF3 uses the normal Horizontal FoV.

So, 60' in BF3 will be 60'.

From what i was reading on Battlelog BF3 uses vertical FOV too. I wouldn't know the difference so i'm not saying they are right and you are wrong just that the general consensus from what i could gather was that it is vertical.
 
I find they're all completely pointless when any low-rank Engineer can shoulder a Stinger missile and ruin your day. You spend your entire time trying to lose locks, evade missiles and generally fly around like a pilot having a seizure than you do strafing bases (not that it is even effective against ground-targets, nor easy with the pitiful map layouts).

Meh, some git on [XSG] Conquest can't practise planes - how you meant to get unlocks for planes when others already have seekers?

Go on an empty server with a mate that allows the match to start with one or two people. Shoot your mate down and voila, flares :p
 
I hate the way there is an entry on your stats page for quit%, i have only ever quit because of lag/rubber banding. It makes no difference but why have it on there?

I think it's so one can induce whether or not someone's win/loss ratio is bogus or not. High win/loss with corresponding high quit % tells you that the player probably isn't all that fantastic.

Anyone else finding it a real struggle to maintain a positive K/D Ratio? I know it's not something that should be heavily focused on in a team based game such as this but I just can't help it. That's years of CoD for you I guess.

I felt major rage last night because I was running with 12 kills and 3 deaths and 5 mins later ended the round with 12 kills and 13 deaths when the tide turned. This tends to happen a lot. I can get the kills but just die a horrible amount. I know it's partly just down to skill but I suspect I'm not just playing it the smart way.

I haven't had a problem, and I've only played on 64 player conquest since having the game.

Kills 921
Deaths 500
K/D Ratio 1.842

Meh, I'm not fond of the jets. Helicopters is where I'm at. Then again, the speed the helicopters move is ridiculously slow. :mad:

They aren't as quick as the jets, granted, but they can be quick if piloted correctly.

I am loving the attack chopper, me flying with stingers, mate on voip and in the gunner position with air to ground missiles, both with flares.

Coordinated attacks and flare deployment, coupled with my awesome low flying skills :D means we decimate enemy air and armor.
 
The one issue I have had is when I'm piloting a jet. Sometimes I will go pretty low to the ground and the game crashes, this is the only, fairly consistent crash I'm having. It happened last night on Operation Firestorm.
