Fun tip: you can still do it if you go prone #DICEcompetence.

Oh dear - is that really true? If so thats incredibly lame.. I dont usually get all the DICE / EA hating that goes on but if thats true then its pretty rubbish. One of the most annoying aspects of the game IMO, and they cant even get the fix right? Amazing.

Still, i guess the 1.5gb we all downloaded has been put to some other good use... right?
 
That's how it's meant to work, I recall reading something about flying "below radar" now working for helis.

That's right, for ground to air missiles the below radar perk makes lock on nigh impossible.

So when you have a have competant heli pilot flying low and raping infantry there is practicularly nothing you can do to stop him? Oh great :(
 
Oh good god Battlefield isn't supposed to be about instant kills.

Yeah I found hardcore much easier last night. Pretty much one shot killed everybody which meant if I saw the enemy first he was dead.

It has massively improved my K/D ratio.

Not sure its a good thing though

1. Very good players will not score as well now and will come down to purely "who fired first"

2. Promotes camping. I must admit, I thought twice about moving around much last night and stayed pretty much in one place just killing anybody I could see running around. Only helis spoilt my fun.

Yeah I mean it's not as if a tank couldn't take out chopper low flying is it, or a soflam and javelin combo, how about smaw/rpg, jets.

50 cal on jeeps and tanks should have got a buff against the attack choppers, they were a real pain in the ass of the BF2 choppers.

This kind of sums up BF3 in general to be honest :/ Obviously these problems are exacerbated by hardcore mode though.

Exactly why I am only playing softcore now :p

Just going to have even more people camping now (prone in some corner no doubt playing the objective :rolleyes:) and getting one shot kills.

e.g. my first match yesterday on HC, you had some guy on seine crossing around the bridge area, no idea where he was, he was near our deployment base somewhere and as soon as you ran from cover you were dead instantly, he could have gone and taken the 2 objectives but nooooo instead he sits in some spot getting easy kills, within in the first 8 minutes he was something like 15-0 :rolleyes:

Well the problem there is that tanks are now useless, any decent eng. can easily take them out by himself now and if eng. aren't then the jets will just take them out in one pass by, not to mention that helis can just own the tanks with one CITV missile :rolleyes:

And the chances of some guy hitting a jet with an RPG from the ground is very unlikely and anyone that does pull it off just got extremely lucky.


IMO DICE need to put things back to the old way regarding aircraft and stingers etc. or just reduce the damage that is done by the aircraft especially the CITV missile, so that it only disables the vehicle and to increase the tanks armour again.


And +1 to the overdone suppression!
 
I just want a really good pilot to fly me around, like a chauffeur, so I can get hundreds of kills as the gunner.

add me, we play tonight. I am one of the best pilots out there, but alway with ****** noob gunners playing with. also i m one of the best gunners out there somtimes i play with noob pilots.

C...can I be your Maverick :D
 
The M16A3 was unchanged.

I think the default attachments they come with are the best combo for that gun?

Yea, it said it was unchanged, but it just feels to have more recoil. I will give it another go tonight. Well it stuck me with the Halo attachment, Bipod and some other random one.. :eek:
