Now that is what I call a nerf. The IR scope could now be thought of as a mark of skill, as if you manage to get a decent kill score using that then you must be good. Can't see many of the current users wanting to continue to use it to prove that however.

I cant wait until the IRNV gets nerfed.

Everytime I get killed, it seems to be by a person using it.

It allows bad players to actually be better, without actually demanding any skill to use.

I have tried it and it just feels like a wallhack so I stick to holo/acog. I also dont like missing out on the awesome graphics by just staring at a green image all day.

On an awesome note, got a SDD yesterday, BF3 now boots in less than half the time it used to :D

A solid disk drive? :p

Thats why you have you ground troops spot the enemies, no need for thermal optics.
Havent been killed many times with helis using thermal optics but gunners and pilots running flares and lock on weapons means they own, they are practically invincible. Taking out a fully loaded competent chopper / gunner combo is nigh on impossible.
You are better off jumping in a tank and trying to hit them with the shells :)
Seen good pilots in jets get owned very easily by choppers, very easily indeed.

This. A good pilot/gunner combo is neigh on impossible to take down and they normally end up with 43-2 or better results.

I was up against a good heli team the other night and despite having a fully maxxed out tank with all upgrades available and a decent gunner, they raped me over and over again. One pass and your dead in the tank so even with both of us been engineers, you don;t even have time to get out and fix it.

I think I finally got them once by a flucky tank shell shot but basically that is your only chance.

On maps with a decent heli team, I just avoid getting in a tank at all and better to be just infantry.

Oh, and yes, they were destroying every jet coming anywhere near them as well.
 
It`s really annoying that you can`t hear enemy footsteps I`m forced to lay claymores everywhere to cover my back. I mostly play INF only with lots of tickets so stuff like this is painfully obvious.
 
not sure I understand why people moan about IRNV. It stops people camping and hiding...whats wrong with that? Its not like an aimbot...and is slower to react than holo or reflex...so doent make someone beter...just helps see more clearly in darker places......which is what its for??

It also shows up dumbass claymores used by building campers!
 
You are playing the wrong game if you are moaning about camping and hiding.

This is an objective, team based game play it like it should be.

Also.... have they put the ladder back into the Caspian tower?? I never understand why they removed it.

If i can consistently kill enemies that i couldn't even see at 200m+ with a SAW and a IRNV scope whats the point..
IRNV removes 100% of all soft cover. I just hope the pc gets this nerf soon and people learn to play again.

A better showing of it. The player in the first vid is so bad he cant stay alive long enough for it to clear the fog.
 
I've been killed so many times from cheap kills when I KNOW they would never have seen me without the IRNV.
 
Game has locked up for me twice in the whole time. For once - and I say this as a guy who couldn't play BC2 for more than 5 minutes at one stage - I do not get BF3 crashes.

IRNV is awesome if YOU are the one raping with it. But if not, meh! Given our recent dabble with clan matches in ESL/TWL, I have started using reflex only. Quick to aim, no tunnell vision and increases the visible area when zooming = awesome!

In clan matches, people rape F2000 with reflex or no sight. Best weapon out there... for now. AEK also.
