Best Thing About Patch IMO

thought this was worth a share hope you enjoy :)

The hit boxes for Choppers / Jets are absolutely ridiculous now.

Pre patch, I would get hit flying the chopper with an RPG or tank shell maybe a few times a month.

Now its literally every night you play. It seems you no longer have to aim that well to hit a chopper / jet. Just point and aim in roughly the right direction and the game will give you the kill in one shot.

I suppose it does stop OTT rapeage, but its incredibly frustrating for pilots to just get shot out of nowhere by people who don't even aim that well and just luck a kill.

Errrr we constantly kick random's out of sqd so that we can sqd up, so that might be it.

"It might not be a plug in but im pretty sure people get kicked when others know their mate is waiting."

I never have....Am normally owing place 6, 7, 8th in the queue like a BAWS. I can also confirm that I haven't seen / heard any admin's do it on the 247 server.

While i'm a cheeky ****er most of the time, I do take any measure of responsibility seriously and am giving it to you straight and true.

Ooooh I've also just realised that we can't kick people who are "inda queue", I take it you were "in game"...........

Plus I'd never kick you.....unless u turned all nasty....your shiny tags r just too much of a lure

That's fair dink um. It just seemed weird as when i was booted out (by ea) i checker the server and it wasn't like everyone was kicked so i went back in and got kicked 5 mins later and then saw10 in the qeueu so gave up and thought i might have been kicked by admin. Apologies if i jumped the gun.
 
Hi all, I keep getting kicked at the moment, excellent news!

Getting the error message:
Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Knubj3' (for 0 minutes) ... This PB Server Requires (A1386 C2.291) - Error loading pbcl


Latest PBSetup downloaded, installed latest files for BF3. Restarted PC. Still nothing.
Looks like others are having the problem, forum post here:

Anyone else having issues?

Looks like theyve imported the chopper hitboxes from BC2:Nam to this :p

I really question if anyone at dice has the faintest idea wtf theyre doing when it comes to game balance, patches and generally not ballsing things up, so far id have to say no.

Notice how the bulk of the plane just stops in midair when he hits it, waits a second or so, then explodes. This is much worse than before the patch and iirc this was one of the patch fixes!

They are most probably noobs themselves in this game :p

Remember this:

Patrick Bach (top guy) himself has 'amazing n**b skill level' in this game :p:p

 
Equip it with squad supress , extended mag and a bipod, and go lay waste to the battlefield.

PKP is the most powerful LMG in the game.
