You think that's OCD? I'm determined to get every gun to 500 to unlock the tags, and also get all ribbons and medals. Currently at 37/50 or something medals. Got all ribbons. 13 guns to 500 I think.

That's OCD.

Or dedication lol. Ive only reached 100 kills on a few weapons. Most being assault rifles. I tend to find a set of weapons and stick with them.

Does anybody else do what I do and work through every weapon until you get at least 1 service star in it? So far I've done all the base assault weapons and am just about the gain access to the final support weapon, after which I'll go go back and do the two extra assault weapons before finally tackling engineer and support. Its probably an OCD thing thinking about it.

Ye i have done it with all the engineers carbines and a few other rifles in support and assault and both the 1911 and 1911 tact light pistols i do try to do the other guns i have but if im getting my ass wooped i tend to go back to something i like or find better.
 
In my experience a team raping the other using vehicles can be stopped in its tracks by just one recon supporting engineers with soflam. Get up high and take out the choppers first and the tanks last as they find it harder to take out the soflam. It just needs one player to take a hit to his score for a while. It doesn't take long for the other team to stop using vehicles and then you can swap back your normal role.

They really need to up the points a recon player gets with the soflam.

Full points for assisting a successful hit would probably be about right.

So when an Engineer gets 100 points for disabling a tank and 50 for destroying a vehicle with a locked on javelin, the recon player also gets those points as an assist, minus the kills if the Engineer got any.
 
Is this happening with someone else on every server?

Look to upper right of the screen.

Foregrip
The Foregrip is for players who who are in close combat and highly mobile fighting situations. It reduces the horizontal recoil forces that make maintaining a consistant aim on target difficult, however it makes aimed shots more difficult.

  • +34% reduction in horizontal recoil (adjust based on gun)
  • -20% penalty to base accuracy when aimed
Bipod
The Bipod is for Players who wish to setup a position and hold it against the enemy, or make long range shots effectively. When deployed recoil and dispersion are substantially reduced and scope sway is eliminated (except under suppression).

  • +Reduction in horizontal and vertical recoil (% depends on gun type)
  • +Reduction in dispersion (% depends on gun type/ammo type)
  • -Has to be setup to get the benefit
Suppressor
The Suppressor is for players who are mostly focused on Stealth. It uses low velocity rounds, which means better stealth at the cost of reduced range. The Suppressor adds bulk to a weapon due to its size, making firing from the hip more difficult, though a high quality Suppressor provides a small aimed accuracy bonus and reduces the muzzle rise when firing.

  • +Does not appear on minimap when firing.
  • +Reduces sound and visual muzzle signature
  • -Reduced range for both min and max, damage stays the same.
  • -50% penalty to base accuracy from the hip
  • +25% bonus to base accuracy when aimed
  • +10% reduced vertical recoil
Heavy Barrel
The Heavy Barrel is for players who are focused on Accurate Aimed fire. It uses high velocity rounds, which means the bullet drop is reduced and the max range of the weapon is increased at the cost of an increase in auto fire dispersion. The Heavy Barrel adds bulk to a weapon due to its weight, making firing from the hip more difficult, though it gives a substantial increase in aimed accuracy bonus.

  • +Increased maximum range, damage stays the same.
  • -25% increased dispersion per shot
  • +50% bonus to base accuracy when aimed
  • -25% penalty to base accuracy from the hip
Flash Suppressor
The Flash Suppressor is for players who want some additional Stealth, without the range and accuracy penalties of a Suppressor. It works as a recoil compensator, reducing recoil, though it adds a slight bit of bulk making firing from the hip more difficult.

  • +Reduces visual muzzle signature
  • +20% reduced vertical recoil
  • -20% penalty to base accuracy from the hip
Target Pointer
The Target Pointer is for players who want to run and gun from the hip. The laser is visible, making the user more visibile to other combatants and thus less Stealthy.

  • -Visible Laser
  • +Laser can dazzle opponents
  • +33% increase in base accuracy from the hip

Well what a total ******* on the OCUK server.

I was with my mate in the chopper recording some footage on Caspian, doing very well I may add, and an admin swapped me and my mate (pilot and gunner) over to the other team after we killed him, mid flight, the teams were not imbalanced (1 person higher). His excuse was to swap us because we were killing his team.

I got mad and he banned me.


First and last time I play on that server.

Lies.

I knew this would happen. Thankfully there are plenty of other witnesses.

The teams were imbalanced. 10vs15. I swapped this person and his choppa pilot to our side. I then was told to F off and was told it was a **** move.


Conscript and a host of other ocuk players on the server should be able to confirm what happened.

Anyway Dave, the way you reacted and swore over being moved to balance up the teams makes me think banning you was a right move.

EDIT

Let me just add it was brought to my attention from several of my ocuk team mates that the sides were majorly unbalanced. Which was why i decided to move a few players. People were leaving because of the imbalance.

Got the game installed at last.

First impressions are good.

Graphics really are stunning.

Finding unlocking a little slow. I played 2142 where the standard assault guns were always quite good, accurate over range etc (or so i think) where as in BF3 i'm finding it harder to get used to them, making progress a little slow for me!

Does not seem to be the player coordination that 2142 had.

But overall, enjoying it :)

You changed us because we went on a killing spree, and I quote, we were "making your team rage".

I shouldnt of sworn at you but we were recording some awesome footage, and to split our squad up was kind of crap don't you think?

Surely you could have bought up a warning that the teams were imbalanced, rather than kill us both mid flight and swap us??
 
Ah well. Got some time in Jets only to get bitch slapped by everyone with stealth or ecms. I sometimes wonder what the point is, i'll never get enough points at this rate,

If this is true then the evidence should be shown in your recording. If so, name and shame, if not, well *shrug*.

People get too easily upset by swearing anyway, as if servers are full of emos.
