You can't in HC, Default C in SC.



Ahhh yes but thats calculated by amount of hours not percentage.

Young Mr Mattias has played a LOT of BF3.

How much he's played BF3 doesnt come into it.

It takes his total score with tanks, and divides it by the time he's spent in tanks, then works out a score per minute in armored vehicles.

BF3stats has a leaderboard of the top scores per minute in armored vehicles and his SPM is in the top 2 % of all PC players, because that score is 8391st best in the world out of 400,000 or so registered players.

Was there any news on the DLC today?

No

EA had their spring event in New York that they said was going to feature news of the BF3 DLC, but they cancelled the BF3 news and just announced other stuff like Mass Effect 3 etc.. it was a week or two ago now.

No news of the patch either. **** knows what they are doing, here's hoping the next patch actually fixes stuff rather than breaks it, and is being properly tested.

Indeed, the Stinger is a complete waste of time.

Helicopters can be so overpowering when there is a competent pilot & gunner. A single vehicle can pretty much be the difference between a win, and a loss. They also seem to have a counter to anything..... try to get lock on, ECM, get lock on and fire, flares, hit once? Fly away and either A) Repair or B) Await maintenance.

Seemingly the only way to fight them is to hope more people in your team spec anti air, or get the anti air vehicle into the action but half the time your team isn't interested (because the Stinger is gash) or the AA tank is manned by a complete numpty sat in your base. An argument could made for the Javelin I suppose, but again it takes team work..... which normally seems lacking when without friends.

Mounted machine guns on vehicles again, pretty much a waste of time, and what's up with tank shells/unguided missiles not killing them in one hit if you actually manage to hit them?! Should be a one hit kill every day of the week.

In short, helicopters can be the most infuriating thing in the game. I rage all the time over them :p

Anyone got any pointers?

If there is no admin, raming with the jet is the only guarantee (add some C4 for extra spice).

(note, if you can line up a ram, then shooting would also work).
 
Still getting the same ****ing Sonarhost error, and not being able to enter games/extremely high latency and ping.

I give up with this bloody game :mad:

/rant :D

Whats actually broke i've played about 6 hours now and not noticed anything game breaking?

The only thing i see is new plyers are severly punished with in accurate weapons and poor attachements. Seems like the more time you have to play the better you will be.

so it's not based on skill for the newbie which is a bit of a pet hate for multiplayer FPS games

The M4A1 for engineer and M16A3 for assault are actually some of the best all round weapons in the game.

Its only really the russian guns that are crap. Same as the russian chopper is crap compared to the viper.

As for game breaking, i was referring to new bugs which they introduce in each patch, and balance changes which they then roll back in the next patch when they change their mind.
 
seriously chap you and the others who just ride the tanks man

in 5 or 6 maps i was on the server you were in th tank this is just a example.

lets not make a saga out of it ffs. your not the only one and you arnt on foot majority of the time. are your scores on foot as high as with the tank ?

:)

thanks for answering :p

the cut and shut of it is - tank whoring gets you a higher score easier than on foot ! you or anyone else cant argue that . especially in hc mode. that is why it is done. simples . dont want to argue about it anymore and really not that bothered about it. i only suggested that people shouldnt tank whore as much not a do or die request .

I have to agree with Matt on this. I am a complete jet whore and I love it. I've put the hours in then why shouldn't I reap the reward?
 
What's happened to missilemoose? I've been trying to get his server going te last few nights, but it's not caught on. With Matts full up every night I thought MM would be hoovering up the excess.
