Its better with the patch now it gets destroyed if they kill you
better of just running around like normal instead of trying to roadkill with that thing
I was using it as normal then got a bit bored and decided to take out a camper who turned out to be an admin on pistonheads hardcore server, he cried then banned me.
Liking the patch a lot so far, played multiple 700+ ticket hour long games which were pretty intense, I like the new balance of anti airmissile lock time reduction and also the reduction in range, this enables a quick way to bring down a chopper or the chopper can just fly out of range, I think it feels more balanced.
Jeep machine gun now seems useful which is handy, never managed to hit a damn thing with it before and I'm also liking that the choppers are now even.
Still getting sound glitches and the net code definitely needs more work but overall a big improvement.

100 tickets on Metro can go so quickly on the 2nd and 3rd set of MCOM's, I only want more than 100 on Metro and Bazzar. Most other maps would be to slow paced
Looking at the amount of people who enjoy a fragfest, I think the next map pack maybe enjoyable. I just wish I could enjoy conquest the way its meant to be played e.g. 64 player.
Annoying enough it locked up AGAIN!! thankfully finished the game this time but still gash.

a friend is running a 3 month server (will be on going) on the 360 that i'm one of the admins on if anyone wants to give it a try.
name: The Real Hardcore
300% CQ or 200% TDM (not mixed, one or the other)
Ranked server, No Hud or Mini Map, all hardcore settings except 100 health (until EA let us have proper hardcore 60% health and stay ranked with no minimap etc..)
it starts with 2 people, fills up US evening time as it's US east coast
with no minimap you get some awesome fire fights, eyes and ears rather than relying on a radar. if not many are on, TDM is like a survival game.

I may have to re-invest in an xbox for this reason.I might start playing this again.
There's a hardcore preset already ?
yep, you cant change any settings though or the server changes to unranked. we want hardcore with no mini map.

Just got banned for first time. Metro again, attacking side having a good game. Went on a rampage to plant the last bomb then boom banned.
Just checked Battlelog, 47-12... and the team won.... BUT because I got kicked it counted as a loss!!
Also I paid for my own server for 24hours. I bought it so me and mate could mess around with dog fights and stuff but he mugged it off so it it up as a public, was surprised to find it full up. Even banned a guy... spawn camping the plain on the defending side of Khang Island, thats about as low as it gets in my opinion.

Too many laggy, rubberband games. Keep getting disconnected and banned by raging admins. Just like on BC2 DICE has managed to break the online experience again.
