If you use frag ammo on a shotgun then you are absolutely terrible at the game.

the learning curve on this is stupid, im only lvl 6 currently after not really playing it that much but i pretty much get one shotted by people 40 levels higher than me

not very accessabile for new player

Rubbish.

You can always do better than others by using.your head. battlefield is a rock paper scissors type of game and for every strength,your opponent has a weakness.

Take tanks for example. No matter what unlocks they have, if you can get behind him, one shot to the rear is 60 damage, vs about 20 to your front.

And the M16 assault starter gun is a great all rounder. Plus if you have the B2K pack te camas is really easy to get and the fastest gun in the game.

It's not about your rank

OCUK server is full of people that sit in tanks the entire game, the amount of times I get spawn killed from them is unreal, it's so frustrating, they ruin the fun for everyone in the other team. Idiots. I'm done with that server.

Hmmm... I do know know how you're managing to get spawnkilled by tanks. That's difficult to do. But anyway, you should be able to take out a tank fairly easily if you've got Jav unlocked, especially if you can get someone to help with Soflam or another Jav.

Probably for the best that you left dude, cant have you shouting in caps swearing and calling everyone noobs all the time.

Yeah I apologise for getting mad on the chat, but I'd rather vent my anger when it happens than leave it and end up suicidal. I just go so annoyed playing against 4+ tanks, anywhere I go there's a tank there. 99% of the time they take 2 Javelin rockets, but if they don't and I kill them then there's another tank there to kill me. 1 tank/LAV per team would be good.

liamcrane · 14 Feb 2012 at 16:09

Can anyone point me in the right direction of some good TDM servers?

Sounds like you got isolated from your squad, can happen if they all run off do their own thing. You do need teamwork to take down a group of tanks. I had a similiar thing happen in oman earlier.

DG's your man.

Daze · 14 Feb 2012 at 16:27

Nah I just think it's the game in general. 2xJavelin against a tank should be a kill, especially against an LAV. Even the jets make no sense, 9.5 times out of 10 you disable the jet and the pilot just ejects instantly. Helis take hundreds of bullets from jets, then lock you on, you dump flares, they lock you on again and boom you're dead. Tanks seem to take full clips of rockets from jets also. The game is just so unbalanced, it makes it impossible to play games without getting frustrated. For me at least.

I agree, the vehicles are so unreliable in what it takes to take one out

Gerard · 14 Feb 2012 at 16:35

Anyone get a game updating screen when launching origin?

ed: just checked back, a crash fix?

Thats where team/squad play comes in. It's rare though to get randoms that understand or cooperate properly.

It's very difficult to get sniped if you aren't standing still because they will have to judge not only the bullet drop but also how far ahead to 'lead' with their shot if you're moving. If you want to take them out though, the best way is usually to get your own sniper (spot them first with your MAV). Or, get close to them with a jeep or whatever and take them out with an automatic weapon.
