All of the thermal vision scopes / vehicle perks are nonsense -- I can't quite get my head around why they would go out of their way to make a game which makes it so hard to see in general... large space, high detail, the ability to prone, the OTT contrasts in lighting, crazy glares, the generous particle effects, all of it making it pretty difficult to know at a glance if anyone is there or not (if they aren't just standing in the open)... then giving you the ability to circumvent all of that by just using a scope that makes everything green and people bright yellow.

I'm going to abuse the hell out of it of course until/if they ever do anything about it. :D

Game needs some sort of practice mode. I plugged in my Xbox controller the other day and set it up for jets and helis, but I want to check the control layout before I go online.

Do a search for "practice" in the server browser, there are a fair few servers where you can go and fly about to work on your skills. Sadly, most of the clan ones are passworded, but there's a Multiplay one which only has 2 slots, so there's always something to try out :)

Our server doesnt require you to wait for other players, so if you see it empty like it is now, hop on and get some practice in!

Nice one, I think I'll do that too. My piloting skills are AWFUL. I think I've managed to stay in the air for about 10 seconds, fly out of the battle area and die :)
 
Gameserver deploy from 10:30 am CET to 14:00 am CET

There will be a rolling restart of the gameservers. If you are currently on a gameserver that is currently deploying the latest gameserver, you will be disconnected. This maintenance applies for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

* Crashfixes
* RCON bugfixes; banList.add can now ban on player name
* Fixes for team & squad handling, both during and between rounds
 
No, don't nerf the IRNV.





Please :o

In all honesty the scope is only good short-mid range, as soon as you get any further the optics don't work and enemies don't light up anymore, so it's useless mid-long range.

Yeah, I tried a couple of those "practice" servers, each time met two pro pilots on the opposing team, taking advantage of nubs like me, thinking I could fly about the map unthreatened. :)
 
The server that have the bans being shown in chat are crazy, was on a server and it was banning people left right and center, shocking how many people are doing it.

Also makes me wonder, do other server have no cheat protection(I understand some can get through) or just don't have it posted to chat? It's nice to know if someone who was freakishly abnormal gets kicked, then you know it wasn't your skill failing.

We are streaming with PBBans so say Player A is banned on a completely different server owned by another community/clan, it automatically bans them on the Bronken server so they can't connect to ours.

Every time a ban is listed with PBBans it get show in the chat box.

I do very well in attack choppers, got all unlocks and a pilot I have flown with from BF2 days, needless to say we own.


Get yourself a decent pilot with a few unlocks and you will get kills and then you will get the nice unlocks for piloting and gunning.



It's not selectable it's just on when you unlock it.
