I don't really give a god damn about stats, I just like to have fun and blow people up :p

Same, stats never bothered me. Play for fun and the teamwork than anything else. I enjoy my suicide runs to take down the tank ;p
 
Playing without mates/teamwork is just absolutely dire. Jets controlling the skies so no one decides to change class to engie or attempt to take them down. Enemy vehicles controlling the points, again, no one attempts to take them down. Does my nut in.

I C4 tanks all the time if a tank is in my area it sure dont control it :p

I know wat you mean about team work its a real shame that most people just care about K/D ratio. Just played caspain border and they had a sniper that sat ontop of attena for the duration but it seemed he was not aware that when down to the last few tickets it topples over i had a front row seat to his death :D

What do you mean, no-one changes to engie? EVERYONE is an engie already, or at least it seems that way with all the SMAW spam!

Oh, and the campers...sorry, snipers...who think they can help getting a 4-0 score each round by hiding at spawn and trying to snipe across half the map.

I must have been unlucky, everyone was assault or recon :\ Weird that absolutely no one goes support yet the number of times i die via the m249 lol.
 
Im having a horrid time with BF3 since i bought the game, at first everthing was fine apart from the terrible hit detection, then they started patching things, not only buffing things that didnt need buffing but also nerfing stuff that didnt need it either and then the crashes started to happen. At the first patch i would crash every hour or so then the second patch came and BAM, i had around 6 different reasons for crashing, everything from punkbuster to disconnets to EA Online and just random crashes ingame for what appeared to be no reason at all, also i could play more than 1 round in a row, as it was loading the 2nd round it would crash. The 3rd patch came and made it a lot better on the crashing front but they decided to nerf and buff items and vehicles that didnt need it and ofc the hit reg is still aweful. Bad Company 2 was my first FPS game and i totally loved it, and considering it was a console port i was expecting high things for BF3 but they have totally stuffed it for me, it made a thread gave ppl info on my setup and gave a dxdiag and no one could help, so until they fix the roblems that a lot of ppl seem to have im not touching any EA or sister company game (i really wanted to try SWTOR).
 
That SG3 Or Engi weapon is so dam strong!

I agree, only unlocked this yesterday and already it has jumped to the top of my stats on KPM

Also finding tanks die easier these days, tis all about getting behind them, if you shoot them head on and they have someone repairing you can do that all day, get behind the tank and its 2 rockets :D

Also i have never had an issue with bullet reg, people die in 3-5 bullets in normal mode as they are supposed to... If someone turns around and 1 hits you you will probably find they turned around earlier but your game had not received those packets. Have you played with new latency slider? I believe as far to the left before people start warping is the best setting (not that i have changed mine, if its not broke and all that)

Just been on TFU, i don't know if anyone else was on there? I noticed a few ocuk names. It was on Gulf of Oman and the other team just spawned on top of the building with the crane! there must have been about 15 of them up there at one point. For most of the game we had all of the flags and won by a mile(this is on a 1000ticket server!!) lol
 
AHHHHHH punkbuster keeps kicking me, even after using manual pbsetup to update, is anyone else getting this? todays the first time its happened
 
I'm thinking about changing my server to hardcore. I'm hoping this might stop decent chopper pilots dominating the non hardcore game and finishing with very high K/D ratios like 40-3.

Without being able to spot it should be easier to hide from air attack in trees and such without an arrow over your head. Then you can ambush as approapriate.
 
lol pig long game?


boring, i hardly saw anyone, our guys were just spamming the top of the building with tanks from the ground and helis from the air:p

I am currently deciding on whether i will use the bipod on most of my weapons or not....not sure atm, it is very annoying when it set you looking through rocks!

It won't stop them totally but it sort of helps.

But the flip-side is one good Pilot & Gunner will still kick ass & kill things quicker on Hardcore due to players only having 60% health

Helicopter gunner can just use thermal optics to see you. No need for red triangles to be able to see you.
 
Was just playing and noticing my game was smoother than usual randomly sometimes, as if Vsync was on.. I'm pretty used to the tearing as I prefer Vsync off even made a thread about it.

Anyway, switched Vsync on and omg.. the game is so much sexier with it on, I quickly got used to it.. I hope I can do the same with other games!
