I also wanna know what the obsession is with vehicles on every single map. I know it's Battlefield, but there's no need for heavy armour on maps like Seine and Bazaar. I think they'd be much better with light vehicles rather than bloody great tanks squeezing down tight streets spamming windows not 3 feet from the end of their muzzle.

They patched in the option of removing them on BC2. I hope they do the same for BF3.
 
Noticed that people were taking down heavy armour with shotties yesterday, I guess I know how!

But anyways, decided that I'm going to get the magic 1k kills with the M16A3 now.
 
I've finally realized what the difference is between BF2 and BF3... The answer:

Bf2: All men are equal
Bf3: People who have more time to play are the superior player via unlocks!

I've come to this conclusion after viewing an old video of mine. I swear down if you picked the best to gun/pilot you know in BF3, i promise you i'd sit them on my own in a AH1z or a Z10!

And there is your answer....

So any1 for bf2?

No one is going to follow you. You will not start a mass bf3 exodus. If you don't like it, just stop playing.

I'm both a PC gamer and a console gamer. But my PC is actually a mac running windows 7 so the graphics aren't great. Fine for older stuff and games based on older engines, but BF3 would be too much
 
just starting to get the hang of conquest now, one thing though because no one uses voice how do i know what point my fellow team mates are planning on capturing.

spent a good 4 hours on matts server it's very good.

The problem lies in the server set up.If you slow the respawn down in the config it makes your server a custom server,which in turn reduces player traffic.
I agree they are not needed,but also a lot easier to take down in built up environment.
When you are using teamwork in a squad both tanking and countering tanks is really well balanced.
You just need to change you tactics when on tank maps.

are they playing hc ?

if you playing pubs and only tank whoring in hc servers you are low . you might not agree but its true.

if they can do the same scores on foot fair enoug but you know like i do they can not and this is the whole reason they tank whore and play hc mode.

Surely this kind of game gives you the opportunity to play how you want. I love jets but find that they suck in this game so spend my time on the ground. If they were better I'd spend a lot more time in them.

"you might not agree buts its true" err that smacks of opinion, not absolutes bud. It's all about perspective. Who's to say what's the better way to play.

There are much better players than me but who's to say who enjoys the game more. I love it and I'm reasonably useless :)

He's got you there DG. I have most of my kills on foot but when im with my tank squad its easier to rack up kills but thats to be expected. I practice hard in my tank and im able to engage other tanks half way across the map at full throttle. That takes a lot of practice.

Every part of the game is a skill, from being on foot, to being in a tank to flying a chopper.(yes even an rpg kill from 400 yards requires some aim :D) I dont see the need to critical of anyone just because they are good in one facet and not so good in others. If thats the case i dont think you can blame them for living in a tank can you? I'm sure they just want to have fun.

Choppers are just the same, if people want to nerf tanks we have to nerf choppers as well. Players like Westie and Josh (in cho face) are amongst some of the best chopper pilots ive seen, taking them out on my own is impossible, it requires a team effort to take down such good pilots. I dont see why having to do the same for a tank is a bad thing. People need to adapt their playstyles rather than jump on the nerf bandwagon or become overally critical of people because they are 'very good' with a certain vehicle or weapon.

However i do agree that vehicles could easily be removed on seine and bazaar, sadly Dice dont want the game to be played like this so add plenty of obstacles.
