I believe they are being nerfed in part of the upcoming patch so that's not too much of a problem.

Did you know the patch ETA is now spring?

Claymores are good and defending stairs in a building you are in.

Did you know its spring now

Tombo · 5 Mar 2012 at 13:48

Not yet, and it gives a window of months.

LOAM · 5 Mar 2012 at 13:50

March/April/May are all spring months though. Its a rubbish time scale agreed but its as likely tomorrow as is May tbh.

Tombo · 5 Mar 2012 at 13:55

It's more likely in May, this is DICE

claymore with an ammo bag over it us pure win Ammo is so rare in BF3 that they flock to them like pigeons.

Will have to try claymore in ammo bag, sounds fun. I normally just spam them all over stairs/ladder at tv station on sharqi, get found a lot though. Going to put a bag over one next time.

Starts march 20.
And leaves a window for april and may. And somehow my gut feeling tells me that Dice is gonna release the patch together with the new DLC...

Suposed to be a big announcement at GDC wednesday. So they announce the next DLC which well I guess come out end of april maybe?

I got a feeling thats not the smart move of Dice since people are annoyed with all the bugs and will leave game till next DLC/patch.

Guess we will have to seem, I just hope they realise they should patch this game soon to keep playerbase happy till DLC.

you have to put it a bit behind as they go down slightly different

Greebo · 5 Mar 2012 at 16:53

Problem is I always get suspicious of ammo crates especially in doorways or on the stairs now.

stevie_vee · 5 Mar 2012 at 17:14

Can i start BF3 without actually going into a game....to look at settings and achievments etc?

Maybe the settings from the single-player carries on?

stevie_vee · 5 Mar 2012 at 17:23

All i want to do is start the game. No multiplayer/cop-op/single player.

LOAM · 5 Mar 2012 at 17:32

What game then?, there's no front end per se, just battlefrog.

Some good games over the weekend. Love JG trying (and failing) to get my tags

Was a mortar whore again I;m afraid. Half way to 300 kills now.

Been there had those.....but not on vid, eh Greebo

If you want to look at settings etc download "BF3 Settings Editor"

Have to admit I really enjoying BF3 atm. I left it for about 2 months playing skyrim, but I'm back. Loving the L85A2, F2000 and KH2002

Anyone else think it's weird to have Warsaw scopes on NATO weapons? Wish they hadn't done that, not exactly realistic :/
