Battlefield 3

old thread is old. On the subject at hand, its been out for a good few months now and the community seems to be holding up well. Especially with the addition of the back to karkand dlc, here's to hope it'll keep going as strong as it is.

I just unlocked c4 for my support class and man have I been having fun. killed 2 tanks that was defending inside a building of an mcom staion with it and I just laughed as i saw their corpses burn. getting a bit better with choppers and flew my first jet, didn' crash any but it was easy to control it. had to tell me teammate what teh controls are to fly it.


Are you uncivilized?!


Walking up to a tank and planting C4! YOU ARE BARBARIC.


In these modern times, we PUT the C4 on JEEPS and DRIVE them towards the enemy.


I slap C4 on my teammate's MAVs and air-deliver that shit to the enemy.


Then you are welcome to the BF3 Gentlemen's Club.

I am civilized alright, but I also have teh cahonas to walk up to a tank, smack its ass with a few blocks of c4, and laugh maniacally as I watch things burn in my path of destruction.

managed to get a teammate to help me airmail my c4 to alot of defenders with hsi mav. I was laughing so hard. managed to troll a dude in teh process.

You die too often, you have to fix that.

just unlocked my mortar for my support class. tried it out on operation metro using it on campers. started out as the defenders and I got to a nice perch surrounded by rocks, killed quite a few people and equipment before a sniper flanked me and killed me. next round I got to be the attacker. ran as close to the mcom station. was again situated behind some tall rocks next to a tall tree. was completely incognito as I provided support for my guys as we took both mcoms within the first 5 minutes of the match. I say I will only use the mortar to deal with campers, and if needed, support.

Mortars is useless if your team isn't spotting.
the most effective way to play mortar is to have a friend playing MAV.

Just got my "U-Suck-At-Shooting"... lol And After using it I think it's overrated.

well if my team ain't spotting, I always look at my mortar map for that red dot indicating the enemy has shot at my team and gave away their position.

UPDATE:
Also I noticed in the battlefield 3 and back to karkland dlc things are different then what I see in youtube vids. dunno if its just pc being used alot for them vids. but I noticed on the 360, the vehicles and flags are not suppose to be where they are or not there entirely on teh map, from that what I saw on youtube.

Has anyone else been having trouble with the Javelin missiles lately? It seems like I'm waiting longer to get a tone before I can fire a missile. On top of that, the missiles either miss or don't do enough damage to take out the tank before an engineer repairs it to full health. I'd imagine a SOFLAM would greatly reduce those problems, but I almost never see another player actually use them effectively, or at all for that matter.

I personally liked the last battlefield in the series better. Now THAT was good. Battlefield 2: Modern Combat, that was where it was at. I get too angry at this game, lol, but i still play it. I love playing with the morters when someone on the other team does it too. Its like we are at war 1v1, lol.

This game has cured me of my skyrim addiction, but I am still terrible at flying a helicopter.

Yea, i gotta agree with that. Helos are hard to fly in BF3. I havnt been able to fly them for a while now. I was awesome at it back on BF:MC2.

practice with teh transport heli for a while. thats what I did and now I can fly all of teh helis with good skills, not perfect like I could in bc2, but decent enough. but I will give you a heads up, helis are like cupcakes at a fat kids birthday party, they go fast.

One of your goal as a Heli Pilot:
-In conquest, capture a flag with a Heli,But don't land on it, Hover above it... lol

It really took me some time, before I understand how the heli "rolls" and moves. I already got my Scout Helicopter Service Star.

Attack Helicopters is a bit harder for me, since it only has missile pods. Timing the missiles to contact is obviously harder than a Scout's Minigun.

I just unlocked teh stuff I needed for my sv98. teh bi-pod and the 12xScope. although my bullets are getting closer to the target. sniping is far more different in battlefield 3 then it was in bc2.

Best way to practice with the helicopters is to play the co-op mission where all you do is fly a chopper. It's easier to do if you have a friend, but it's still better than trying to practice in the middle of a round of rush.

Also, I just got the PP19 and found that using a PDW so much has actually changed how I play the game. I'm now making the extra effort to flank enemies whenever possible to make up for the gun's lack of range. On top of that, I became a much more proactive recon player, using the MAV to get a quick look at the surrounding areas and spot enemies and plot a path to get around them before I land it on top of a nearby building and get back to work.

Btw, I've been trying to figure out how to kill people with the MAV without the use of C4, but haven't been able to get it to work properly. I've seen people getting crushed by the things, but couldn't figure out how to do it myself.

Also, also, at what point in the recon class do you unlock the M40 sniper rifle?

Well, to insure you get a MAV roadkill, you need to ram it like a vehicle. You must not touch anything else or it will slow down, and it won't be a killing roadkill. Some MAV users just swoop down from air, some choose to drop down on top of the enemies head.

You'll get the M40 at your 6th Recon level, after getting your SKS.

I've been trying to crush people by landing in on their heads, but it didn't seem to work. I'll try simply ramming them and see if that fares any better.

Good to know. I think I'm just a few hundred points away from unlocking the SKS.
