People laying prone in bushes with the thermal scope = :rolleyes:

AA guns are very good imo. Once you get the sweet spot you'll bring down jets and heli's

They're a little OP. Great for taking down airborne targets but a lil too good at mincing infantry

My favorite bits is when the soldiers talk.

I cant help but crack up every time I hear "We are getting ****** up the ass over here".

I've unlocked the SOFLAM, but nobody seems to have the weapons which can lock on to the laser. Shame that. :-/

Played with a couple of old clan mates tonight whilst on Vent, made the game 10x more fun. We absolutely owned!!

Im not liking the fact that some people have to much spare time on their hands as so have spent so much of their lives on this game that they now have the power to see me when im otherwise hidden.

:confused:

Im sure no camper, but am getting fed of being engulfed in forna and being picked off as if im running around stark naked waving a belicia becon above my apparently mile wide body shouting shoot me shoot me.

rant over.

If you're talking about the IR scope, it only took me 4 hours total playtime to unlock it. That's hardly any time at all considering the game's been out for a week.

That said, I do agree with you - it's too overpowered and it's overdue a severe nerfing. It needs to be back how it was in the beta - useless beyond 50m and you could only use it inside.

Anyone notice the performance with R7 is terrible? Laggy servers and random drops in fps?

yeah the IR thing, 4hours? well i must be even worse at this game than i thought, so i take back my slight nerd based dig but am still narked by its presence.

rogueblade · 3 Nov 2011 at 21:48

I hate the IR scope and all players that use it

Truth be told, I get unusually lucky and always seem to be on the US side so I use nothing but the M16A3 (I only play medic class) and thus quickly unlocked most of the scopes for it

Players who like to switch classes a lot will find it takes them a fair bit longer.

Gerard · 3 Nov 2011 at 21:51

Do some servers specifically disable AA vehicles or somethihng? I was in a round of caspian conquest and not once did the tunguska seem to spawn, spent a good bit of time looking for it but didn't seem to be anywhere on the map, nor did i ever see the aa LAV. :confused:

Be careful what you wish for, DICE knee jerk nerf.

I hate morons who camp in there spawn spamming Mortar, so annoying. It should be disabled until they leave that area i think.

Once people start countering more they won't be a problem. It's pretty easy to go 15-0 doing nothing but counter morty on certain maps just because they don't realise their first shot lights them up on the map to others. Drop > look > smile > morty > 100 points > hit E and move and wait for light up

GothicGhost · 3 Nov 2011 at 22:22

Anyone like to join me and get some quick coop points on the last mission.

Should be able to unlock most coop guns in a hour I think

Even if you die you get the points it seems but not if you quit out of the game.

I will be able to play at about 12ish tonight add me and msg me if you like to try it.

This the trick I am on about and it does work

If there are people mortaring all round then I'll go mortar and wipe them off the map

LOAM · 3 Nov 2011 at 22:33

I've just come of the most intense metro rush round I've ever played. Total carnage. Once in the tunnels I love that map.

"You were disconnected from the server"

I must have seen that message at least 10 times today.So much fun
