Just because I stopped playing the game doesn't mean I can't post in the thread, last time I checked there weren't any rules that you have to own/use something in order to post in the official thread on a public internet forum? Oh wait, I forgot this thread is only for fanboys of the game/company, no criticism/negatives posts against the game/company is allowed.....



Enjoy the 24/7 conquest clan forum/site........bye

Expected reaction....Achieved :D

I think it is very sad that all you do is moan about the game, especially when not even playing it...and on that note...I'm going to find me a Hidden & Dangerous thread to moan about the bugs in the game...Haven't played it in ages but "last time I checked there weren't any rules that you have to own/use something in order to post in the official thread on a public internet forum?"

Nowhere to the same extent from my experience and I have been playing the game in the last 6 days or so and it still isn't anywhere as bad.

Never played BF 2 so can't comment.

I only moan about the game whenever someone brings something up, I have posted a fair bit about the same area lately because people have been discussing about it and I have joined in and posted my own opinion on the subject, after all this is a discussion forum is it not?

Plus I do play the game, just not any more (last I played it was about a week ago), however, I will probably come back to it again after a month or two or after the next patch to see if it is any better. Also it is not like anything is going to have changed within 1 week of not playing the game...

You can post whatever you want in said thread, your opinion and you are entitled to post what you want about it, I won't be jumping on your back and taking any offence when negative criticism is posted towards something like what happens in this thread....... unless it is completely wrong.

Some seriously OP weapons in that game, if it was released like that now everyone would be on about how it wasn't balanced etc. We're all so critical now. I think BF3 is epic, and AK is a great expansion with lots and lots of different ways to play a map (loving the mountains map, just gets better).

Sure there are things I would change. I dislike the gunship being shot down by a LAV AD sitting in a blind spot in their spawn. Shoot me down from the map ffs. It's a guaranteed kill which just takes the fun out. I wouldn't mind a belly mounted AA turret on it too for those blind spots.
 
I think the games where one team gets steamrolled are partially down to people who want to do something specific that game. If you are dead and waiting for the heli/gunship/artillery etc, or just messing about instead of playing for objectives, your team suffers. The maps are big so it takes a lot longer to cap objectives that are far away. Maybe higher ticket counts would allow for comebacks? Normal ticket count does provide a merciful release to those who are trapped in a base-rape situation though. I've seen some close games anyway, and it usually comes down to who has the organised and focused team.

You're turning into Raven though

Continually posting the same opinion that you don't like BF3 and Armored Kill.

We get it.

Its a bit like continually repeating yourself at a dinner party. Its not wrong, its just boring for everybody else involved.

It needs a turret either under the wings or on the belly, theyre supposodly making it take more damage before it gets taken down...so what? It'll still get taken down only slower because it has a massive vulnerable area that it can't do anything to defend.

Exactly. I can even cope without a belly mounted turret (if you're quick you can spot them before they get into position sometimes, or as they finish their pass). It's the AA sitting in their base, out of range of the canons (maybe extend the rotation of the main canon? Although you risk base rape), who just spams you as you fly by and that's it. One circuit if you're lucky enough to start away from their base.
 
I dont understand how anyone can possibly blame the game for one team owning anyway...

its obviously the player base, and one team being more organised. Cant just stop playing a game because people/teams are better than you.

Personally i think they should raise the flight ceiling of the 130 and extend the orbit it does so its not simply moving cannon fodder to stationary and mobile aa cannons. Apparently on that mountain map you can actually get above the height its flying at and slap it with rpg's. :confused:
 
spent 7 hours editing my montage last night even tho i was rendering with my CPU, my GPU crashed and vegas strop working, losing all my work :( ffs

so gonna have to redo it all tonight!

but its defo gonna be worth it :D

If it was only the odd time then id agree, however more often than not its one team totally decimating another. Gets very old very fast.

OK, so elaborate on how that can possibly be a fault with the game?

Both teams have the access to the same resources, weapons and map. I simply cannot understand how you can deem the game broken.

Yeah, but you do need to be able to hit it with stingers etc for the rush maps and so on, and you don't want to extend their range too much. I would say cutting AA range is the way forwards, but even then you'd still get pummelled from their spawn as you're directly above them. I think being able to rotate the turret round to shoot back would be the easiest solution. I don't see base rape being a huge issue as you could take it down with a few stingers/missiles if you were all trapped in the base anyway.

Slight buff in damage taken, wider turret arc, maybe under-wing AA turret. Spot on.

Whos deeming the game "broken"? Its more down to servers not shuffling players around when the ticket count is literally landsliding towards one team. That and players switching teams when possible if they see that a game is going to be won handily by the other team.

As said it gets old fast.

Teams do get rollered on AK much more on HC servers. All you need is a quarter of your team to think it is cool to hide in the hills and get one shot kills from distance and you are buggered. I am sure they will get bored of it soon and balance will be restored.

AK is what we have been waiting for since BF2, though as I have got older, I do now prefer the run and gun street maps more.

Very true, when me and some lads are playing silly buggers..We lose, when we try we more than often win. Coordination is the key :D

Yep...Been there RPG'd that. It really is quite stupid having an AC130 flying at 300 feet
