Bought BF3 on a whim today. Haven't played a proper online shooter since BF1942.... Just installing now. Is it worth while playing single player first, or can I just dive straight online? I'm a sensitive wee soul, and don't want to get shouted at too badly.

single player is quite dull, plenty of noob servers, watch a few youtube beginner or tips videos, i started off as support and picked a single gun and stuck with it getting the unlocks on the way.. its all iron sights at the start so you may or may not find it that easy to get going, some prefer them. when you play as a support you can drop ammo around people near you and help the team with suppressive fire.

Not a starter gun but the ironsites on the L86A1 are amazing

Started off with a x8 scope on it and switched straight away and got so many kills

Most of the time, no. Sometimes i add them in for a few days here and there but i prefer the stock maps.

Cool thanks.

I'll be back on tonight as I'm back from Shanghai.

Still only around level 17 after having to rank up again after my lovely EA ban, so it's a nice challenge!!!!!

What are the TS3 details as I couldn't connect last time I tried as I couldn't find a password.

Jet guided missle depends in ya angle of attack if it hits or miss! If ur locking a target that is soflamed it will hit 100% but if it's not u have fly quiet high and release it the right time for it to hit! Also tanks will smoke the lock too which will make it miss and good drivers will use the surroundings to make it miss also as u can always tell were the missile is coming from as jets always fly pretty slow and straight. Just use rocket pods 100x better!

lol'd. It's much more fun listening to him on TS than seeing what he types in-game

Just told him on TS about his sand problem. He on his way in

So I've only started playing again after a month or two because of a broken PC but now I'm getting constant 'server was removed' disconnects.

Seems a common fault

GG on Matt's just now but I can't be chewed going back on if it's just going to kick me off all the time.

Not my fault some people are utterly god awful at the game.

Had some cretin tk my tank with his tank earlier, for him to say it was an accident. How it can be an accident, some braindead muppets on BF3 today.

Hi

It was an accident. You had no label so I assumed you were the enemy so I shoved a tank missile up your chuff.

I did apologise but you seem the kind of person who will keep on raging.

Accept it and move on

And before you call me a noob, I know I am one

blasphemyweb · 20 Apr 2012 at 14:04

Ugh! Don't think I'm going to enjoy this game, really don't understand people who 'rage' over video games.

LtMatt · 20 Apr 2012 at 14:11

Re star

You're lucky youre not on ts with him, all he does it moan non stop. But outside of the game hes a lovely chap.

So judging by what ive read its apparent BF3 aint gona be a CS, BF2 or COD4 title in competitive scene or public play…. So i’m a little worried! As some of you know I run an FPS clan, I can see our guys are getting fed up with BF3, They are however sticking with it and practising ready for the iseries comp. After that tho I just don’t know!!! … The only game I can see in the horizon with any potential is CS:GO but after playing that in BETA I wouldn’t buy it (I know BETA is BETA blab la bla), to me it brings nothing new. There’s only so many times you can re-shape gold but it doesn’t change the fact its still just gold!

Reason I don't use voice coms! ****ed off with people moaning raging telling other people what to do when they have no clue themself! Ts3 is for 2 things important information about the game ie attacking alpha, enemy going echo etc! And having a laugh. Rest can can **** off!

LtMatt · 20 Apr 2012 at 14:18

I want a high quality, current gen world war 2 fps game. I know its been done to death but i grew up playing ww2 fps games, medal of honor etc. I really miss playing games like that, i tried going back to them but they are just too dated now.

I want a ww2 fps game with a solid storyline, a solid soundtrack, and a solid mp as well. Just like Medal Of Honor Allied Assault had.

Lets put our feet up for a moment and reminisce.

3,2,1 youre back in the room.

They just dont make em like that anymore.
