Kinda what I meant with the whoring...I felt cheap doing it lol.

I dont mind if its nerfed to not kill so easily over long distances, but its going to have to be one shot kill at close quarters, not 3-4 as it seems to be at times.
 
The range is stupid on it, and frag rounds seem to have more power than they should. Metro is just one constant USAS Frag fest. But they are aware of it and should be a matter of time before it's patched.
 
Destroying a vehicle with a repair torch is doing my head in. The amount of times I've been sat by a tank only to get someone RPG right at the end and beat me to it :( Even came across a SOFLAM earlier, sat there with a repair torch, only for my own team mate to jump out of his jeep and run me over, then I get a assist on the SOFLAM :( Gutted
 
I thought it'd be a nightmare to get but think it only took a couple of rounds play to do so.

Granted I probably just ran around with my repair torch for those rounds but still :p
 
What the bleedin' heck is going on with shotguns, and why on earth did Dice think adding frag rounds were a good idea.... really.... this isn't CoD :mad:

You know there's something wrong when you have a tooled up assault rifle, a short burst with three hit indications, only to get killed by the guy you were shooting at, by (insert any rapid shotgun here) with frag rounds! At a distance you would expect to hit anything with a shotgun at!!

I hope they fix this, as it's the most frustrating point of the game now, that, and not having the Garand or Thompson; I miss those :(

I went on Rush mode to do mine, it was Karkand and when we lost 2 points I hid inside a building and when the enemy advances up, someone will usually set a mortar up some where. Being stealthy, kill the guy and torch his mortar.

frag rounds are getting nerfed in the next patch, whenever that is.
 
Forgot to comment on how good last nights games were. Had 6 of us in the same server at one point, and just as i went to bed Witor came online so we would have had 7.

I'll be on tonight late if anybody else will be on ?

Want somebody with C4 to try a EOD Jihad bot :D

Yeah, was really good last night. Great fun. I will try and be on again :).
 
What the hell have Dice done to this game! I've just played a couple of hours with a buddy and 60-70% of deaths have been to USAS with frag rounds :mad:

I cannot believe some muppet has programmed such an overpowered gun into the game - this thing is easily the most deadly weapon I have seen; it even puts the tank's main cannon to shame.... that's not right.

Close, Medium, and even sniper like range, it has such stupidly high accuracy, and you're dead in two, maybe three hits if you're lucky, and considering most of the guns using it are rapid fire; you're often dead before you know.

It's like this gun has fallen from MW3 and landed in BF3, and now pretty much ever game I play has retards whoring it up - I wouldn't mind if there was an ounce of skill in using it, like having to be up close, but it seems unbeatable at any range, so leaves you with naff all chance really.

Christ on a bike, do you think anyone actually tests these things before releasing them into the wild? I guess they had a whole host of CoD fans testing this, as it seems totally out of place in the game.

Roll on the patch to sort it - it needs to go back to being a shotgun, close range, and not so powerful.

Vent over.
 
if i had a penny for every time i got USASd or shot by a ****** with a third party auto allowing controller and silenced pistol id have atleast three fiddy

made more sickening when the kill cam makes me have to watch them go do it to someone else

Thats not really all true, its stupid power at long range, and medium range, but close range it has no power, shotguns in close gun on gun quarters should be one shot dead, but with the USAS and I can pump about 3 round at close quarters and be beaten by some guy using a hand gun, that's happened plenty.
MY main problem is how EA/DICE are showing about as much support with updates and bug fixes as they did with Bad Company etc..... absolutely non existent. They have to start pulling the thumb out and and show they are willing to stand by this series. I still cant believe the sound issues are there, in certain ways you park a tank or sommin the screen twitches around like crazy, or tanks that continue to keep slowly turning/ floating when you come to a stop. Also, did they fit 1.2 litre petrol engines to ALL the vehicals in the game?..they cant even drive up the simplest of inclines without just running out of power and stopping or rolling back.
 
That's another thing, just looking at the post about C4 - why is that floating tank thing (AAAARRRPC or something) so hard to destroy? It takes 4-5 tank shells, 5+ RPGs, and at least 5 packs of C4 to destroy (not all together mind :p) I've yet to be able to find a weak spot on the damn thing, the obvious rear door seems to offer no added damage, so you're left pumping rounds into it as everyone spawns out of it.

I think it's intentionally like that so that they don't get sunk easily when transporting from Spawn. It's a pain, but you just have to keep distance from the grenade launcher's accuracy and hope somebody else will help you take it down too!
