Poll: ***The Official Battlefield 3 Thread***

I've read this so many times it's ridiculous. How do you prevent it ? It's a consequence of one team being better than the other, is that not the whole point of the game, to dominate the other ?
I've had it happen to me and I've also done it, some you win, some you lose

And what is the winning team supposed to do, just stop playing ?

No, like ive done with another clan before, as your obviously a good team, pull back and let them cap a flag or 2 then attack again, the rounds last longer, and you get more kills/points, plus its more fun than shooting into a base, or have people leave.

Most players have probably noticed that grand bazaar rush can be bad for spawn trapping. Though it is funny when you are doing the trapping.

 

[yoyo50]

spawn raping on either end of metro aint much fun either

 

[Morba]

Close quarters looks like COD, I'm not sure I'll even buy it*.

*I will blatantly still buy it.

So any infantry only FPS is COD like then basically?

Don't understand comments like yours, see the same on Battlelog forums, such rubbish tbh.

 

[MouseMat2004]

Watch the others too, very funny

Good stuff, subscribed to their channel.

Anyone know somewhere to pick this up cheap for the 360, cheapest i've found is £24.99 from Game online.

Is this a good deal?

I already paid full price on release on the PC but just picked up a 360 and want to start playing on that.

About as cheap as it gets tbh, buy new or factor £7 for an online pass into the cost.

Morrisons had it for £15 in store, not sure if it's still available at that price.

Still absolutely loving this game. All about playing with friends though (much like any online game).

I agree, have to actively limit the time I play otherwise I get a headache after a couple of hours. Was playing some B2K today on a dice server and it felt much more intense than the standard maps. Had to really think quick but once you had some good positioning or techniques you could start to make a difference.

Still don't use the jets or choppers much, can't get the time to build up stats or the occasion I do get in an unclaimed one I find it difficult to score points.

 

[Russinating]

That's all I do when I'm playing on my own is jets because it doesn't rely so heavily on having a good team to have fun. Unlocked everything for them a while ago but still only have 138 kills (wish it showed the number of vehicles destroyed as that would be way higher).

Had a few good games last night. Almost beat my friends kill streak of 23 on Metro last night which I was pretty happy with as most of the time streaks are from vehicles (mine is anyway @ 20). Ended the game with 30-3 though my mate beat me to MVP thanks to ammo spamming: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/battlereport/show/44147021/2/355313792/

Still can't judge bullet drop with the snipers and a 12x scope since the bullets became tank shell sized

first game in a while that I have tried hitting over 400m and ended up with 9% accuracy for the game (sniper only server, CQ firestorm).

Also noticed that a lot of opponents on top of the hills seemed to be on a see through ledge, as I could see them prone head to toe when I shouldn't have been able to.

Can't kill bugger all in the jets. Choppers I do ok against other choppers, but otherwise end up crashing while trying to shoot land vehicles or infantry
Much better on the ground with a gun in my hand

 

[Russinating]

Just takes getting used to. I use the alternate controls which I'd recommend as well so the left analogue stick is throttle.

 

[Morba]

Good idea, might be worth a try. Can you change controls in game (guessing you can), so should I get killed and not looking like getting another aircraft for a while I can still run around normally?

 

[Russinating]

The controls are jet specific, ie tanks etc will still be trigger for throttle. Go into the options and you'll see.

 

[Morba]

Cool, will have a play later then and see what difference it makes

 

[Russinating]

Also those Battlefield Friends videos are hilarious. Thanks yoyo

 

[scousegit]

even with my current stats



im on the verge of dropping this pile of dog ****, as many of you may know im #3 in the world in the attack chopper and enjoyed it for quite some time. But recently again i've been doing some ground work and man the suppression is killing me, how does anyone put up with this ****?

it's just a total joke.
