The Official Battlefield 3 thread

part of the reason I haven’t messed with PC gaming, too much. Whenever I’m on a roll like that, I’d be really pissed to get booted while on a hot streak. I got accused of being a cheater for being able to “rapid fire” the IR Flares in the attack choppers, when I was the only person in it… Like you did, if someone locks onto me, I’ll fire the flares when the missile is on it’s way. Then, if I’m locked on again, as soon as I hear the warning that another missile is on it’s way, I’ll switch to gunner really fast and fire off those flares. I was accused of being a hack because “No pilot can fire off flares that fast.” This was on PS3, mind you… They got especially pissed when I kept getting double kills because I was a one man “dual killing machine” in the Viper.

wow, so you can buy your way to unlocks now on Origin. $7.99 for soldier types, and for an all-in-one package for $39.99!

Why am I not surprised

TV missiles don’t suicide glitch upon launch. They 1-shot-kill all armored ground vehicles like in BF2 (AS THEY SHOULD!!!)

I’m happy with the patch.

first two rounds since the patch release:

^^ had to go to bed mid round, but managed that KDR in about 20 minutes

Demologik psn Id… Add meh.

patch broke the FAMAS. It’s a POS, but i managed a 13-2 playing like a scaredy cat. 11% accuracy even when bursting (on full auto) is atrocious. Dont even get me started on the 3rd burst. It’s completely useless at range.

SKS is insane. Shot recovery is so fast you can kill someone easily just by suppressing them with repeated precision fire.

Also some serious lag issues on Kharg island TDM. Aiming with the acog is noticeably laggy for me.

edit: ok, i take that back, the FAMAS is decent in mid to close range. You’re not going to hit anything from far away though.

edit2: the music in this damn video is stuck in my head. it’s so damn catchy.

patch broke everything… All weapons are now “meh”

TBH… i’ve been playing more mw3 than bf3 cause of that patch… they better come out with new maps. They’re losing the audience.

Bailing out like a bawws

that actually happened to me three times yesterday, lol. twice in an attack chopper as the pilot. my friend was the gunner, and he got killed. I had just deployed my flares in the pilot seat and narrowly avoided some heat seekers. well, another lock happened and missiles were coming my way really quickly, i quick switched to gunner and attempted to deploy those flares, but just missed it, was dropped to around 10% health, and as I was going down, I deployed last second, and somehow managed to run off like a G. took some damage, but found a place to recover. it was awesome.

Then, on Kharg Island, I was in a jet, doing some damage on a tank. I clipped a pole on the descent, and made a B-Line straight down. Coincidentally, the jet was headed straight for the tank, Jihad style. I ditched it just a split second before impact, killing the tank and enemies in it, and somehow only took a little damage from the explosion of the vehicles.

It was great. I’m finding these rented servers awesome, by the way. I LOVE playing max ticket matches on Metro, Caspian Border, and Wake Island. I was in a 2 hour match on the 5 flag Wake Island. Ran away with the MVP by going 92-30, and made out with well over 40,000 points after all bonuses. :slight_smile: Shit was epic.

Just as I got fucking awesome with TV missiles, the fuck-sticks at DICE took away 1SK’s, Fucked the hit registration and still haven’t fixed the TV launch suicide bug. Floating bubbles of death now, GG DICE, you just keep fucking it up.

Funny series of videos… Check um out.

lol.

“You know, I’ve even got some ammo if you need it.” Funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. I remember watching the one about people stealing tanks. That shit was hilarious.
