Didn't explosives remain after death before but then they removed it? Glad they are bringing that back, C4 is great fun

Claymores disappear instantly you die atm. Very annoying that they can shoot you and your Claymore that you would expect to kill them with has disappeared instantly.

Didn't they already change C4 so if you die then you can't detonate it on respawn?

M320 is your main weapon?

Getting a huge score for 0 deaths is easy when you stand past the flag at B, well out of range, beside an ammo pack and just spam grenades down the left stairs. Any nub can sit and do that for a round. it requires no skill whatsoever.

Is there not already a C-RAM on the ship at Canals?

"•The LAV gets disabled at 30% health, no longer at 50%"
Oh good, Bazaar will be even more hellish now.

"•Removed the mini-map on Hardcore"
FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU- What's the point of spotting or TUG-S then?

Yaayuh! · 29 Aug 2012 at 08:46

"Increased the M417 vertical recoil and horizontal recoil"

Glad explosives will remain. Means Claymores will now have a proper usefulness outside of personal defence.

Also, no minimap in hardcore - sounds interesting

The patches posted above are fake and was made back in July from fans wishlist.

•Removed the mini-map on Hardcore

Great so it becomes even less of a team game and more of a COD-like-no-tactics-spamfest :eek:

Why so? I assume you'll still be able to find control points by their floating markers on the HUD, same for team mates. All it means is you won't be able to see enemies positions.

Might make tanking a bit harder though. Hopefully means you'll be able to take cover and hide while a tank rumbles past then move on without them seeing you on the minimap with Proximity Sensor and spamming your cover into oblivion. Unless they allow minimap in vehicles.

And looking at his battle reports all he plays is metro...USAS 4th weapon aswell....

Spends his time spamming m320, blind firing frag round and bragging in forums

On another note. Is there any reason the Conquest 24/7 ~ |All Maps|Vote| (http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf...e88-93fa5faab354/Conquest-24-7-All-Maps-Vote/) doen't run the Back to Karkand DLC? I prefer to play Hardcore but often find myself going back to normal mode simply because there isn't many HC servers that are consisntanly full that run B2K

DamoTourettes · 29 Aug 2012 at 11:21

So they're nerfing the M16 and M4. This really gets me wound up - all these ***** noob kids running around crying when they get raped have demanded this, and it's just ridiculous - REGARDLESS of which gun good players use, they will *still* pwn these kids because they are better players.

When will DICE stop pandering to these ridiculous demands of crybabies that are level 10 playing against a Colonel level 50 who whine when they get rinsed? Isn't it obvious?

You answered your own question.

I've tried many times to integrate the B2K DLC into the server, but eventually it just kills the traffic levels.

Those patch notes have been found to be fake.

Same goes for the 93R. A fantastic handgun, NERFED, because cry baby kids want to use a .44 magnum in close quarters combat and when they miss with the first shot, whinge because they get wasted.

Given that the M16/M4 are two of the most readily available weapons, you would have thought it made sense to leave them as they are, good all round weapons.

Fake....hope not. Many many needed fixes in there.

Like attack helos not being able to destroy deployables. I spent ages trying to gun down a SOFLAM and not being able to work out why it refused to die
