Wake Island on Conquest Assault when you're on the US side is the best B2K Jihad Jeep level. The tips of the island are uncaps that both have a pair of buggys that respawn quickly, so you can Jihad Jeep nonstop.

I would say the 870 would probably be. Can you even unlock a scope for the semi auto shotguns? I've tried sniping with the USAS with frags and it doesn't work. It's the best auto shotgun, so if it can't do it none of them can. Of course, if you're using the 870 you're basically just asking people to kill you at point blank. But then, you would be with a bolt action.

Edit: I WANT TO DO THIS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9Az...4d5FUAAAAAAAAAA

Wow. If you can manage this on consoles, you might actually have a chance at shooting planes and helicopters down!

Also I'm pretty sure the 870 even states in the description it's got a longer range. You can get hitmarkers at impressive ranges even with buckshot, but you're probably only doing 1% of damage.

I hate people so much who obviously don't look at their map. I spotted a assault sneaking around the side of the ticket-grinder in one rush game, but he pulled the trigger first. I then got to watch his killcam of shooting someone else in the back, reloading, then killing two more people with a unsilenced FAMAS.

Awesome edit - Holy crap if only you could do this on console.

When people say there is too much violence in my books, what they are saying is there is too much reality in life.


The last ten games or so I've played have been utter garbage.

"We're down by ten tickets?!" Rage quit.
"We're down by two people?!" Rage quit.

It seems every game is myself and my buddy vs two clans with everyone else on our team being utter scrubs.

And I'm sure people have bitched about this a good deal already but something must be done about the runway camping. It is getting-the-gently caress out of hand. A game on Nosehair Canals featured the enemy circling our aircraft carrier with their Z11 and both of our little birds, which they had stolen. Cut to our team spawning on the flight deck and getting literally raped by bullets.

Suggestions:
If the enemy blows up your vehicle it respawns in five seconds. (So you're not effectively grounded for the entire match in a loop of death)
There are auto AA-guns in the spawn. (It's not like your team could exploit this by forcing the enemy jets to fly over your spawn in a dog fight because if you're doign that you aren't helping your teahahaha just kidding jets never help their team anyway)
Every runway camper gets aids irl

Last night the Redneck Goon Hunting Party officially began and was off to a good start with scoped shotguns and unscoped L96 and SV98's. It started as a joke but in hardcore this is a viable option if you sprint a lot. Get spooked, pull the right trigger, and the bullet flies straight with the laser sight, or without the laser sight if you are too badass.

Also, everyone has the exact same sense of humor. Someone would join us, see what we were doing, and then immediately make a Dick Cheney joke. Every time.

Even if you loving suck in a vehicle, jump in it at spawn when defending in rush if everyone else buggers off. Because it's better for you to soak up damage, time and attention then get blown up, than get it hijacked by the other team!

I learned to do this the hard way on Tehran. So painful and got loving steamrolled that game because it seemed like the entire rest of the team was too stupid to play anything besides assault and recon. Also I've suffered from the Littlebird Hijack on canals too. Quit right out of game anytime that happens now because there's no hope bringing them down.

Also I envy/hate this guy. I wish I could get as much done in one ticket.

What exactly is supposed to happen at the end of the last co-op mission? My partner got taken hostage, and a button prompted flashed for a fraction of a second, which I didn't make because I am not a superhuman and cannot react that fast, then my partner hit his prompt which broke him free, then the game told me to "take the shot", so I pulled the trigger but my guy didn't have a gun out, he was still holding his arm out, so I fell over dead, apparently shot. What was I supposed to do instead there?

e: Judging by this youtube video not only did it display the wrong button to press anyway, it did it at the wrong time.

I finally got my loving Air Warfare ribbon today! Somehow Grunty got his hands on a little bird when we were the ground team on Nosehair Canals and he let me fly it, and we tore up some motherfuckers on that aircraft carrier. I was hoping I'd get hatemail saying I was a chopper whore so I could tell them to check my achievements and check which one I just got three minutes ago.

I also got my first two jet kills the next match after it, which means I have heat seekers and might actually be able to kill other jets! Yes, I am Colonel 8, why do you ask?

Did the two little birds happen to run into each other and explode? If they did I was in that game and I apologize for the spawnrape but goddamn that was hilarious.

I also ended up hitting an empty Little Bird with a rocket and right afterwards someone spawned in it and it exploded.

Hey guys! I'm having a good time, what about you?

Awww, what the gently caress. I've been playing through the campaign on hard for my first go through to get it all over with and just finished Night Shift. I saw that there was an achievement I missed at the very beginning so I restarted the level, got it, then quit out. Now I want to resume so I choose to replay a mission, go to Rock and a Hard Place, and can't select anything above Easy. This is a bit of BS that I'll have to either redo Night Shift but hopefully not have to start the entire campaign over again.

Since I'm not up for that right now I'm going to start with the multiplayer. I believe I'm on the bf3goon site already so I'm posting here to request a metatag invite or see if anyone is on now. GT is Rabbit Holed

HAY GUYS WHAT IS TEH INTERWEBNET, AND ISN'T A0L the SECKZ!? :LOL: 1337
PS I'M A FUCKING LOSER


Well as much fun as the MK3A1 is, the USAS is just soo much better. I'm glad that I unlocked everything on the gun before the nerf frag rounds into the ground. The gun really needs a faster reload. The USAS is literally better in every way. Faster reload, more pellets/darts, higher rpm. The only thing it has is slightly faster projectiles which really means nothing at the distance we're talking about for effective engagements. On ps3 you at least get 14 rounds with the thing, on the xbox its only 11 making the thing have 0 purpose. The jackhammer is uglier than the usas as well.

Now its back to grinding that horrible QBZ. After using this chinese water pistol, I fully appreciate the AKS. The AKS while also firing horribly slow, at least does a full 17 damage at range. The qbz has fast bullets but awful recoil. At least, the aks I could grind with it in tdm to get those last kills, with the QBZ I need to actually play conquest to find those truly oblivious players. The QBZ makes you appreciate how good the rest of the guns in the game are. It makes you appreciate the g18. QBZ < AKS < G53 < G36c < Scar-h < a-91 < m4a1.

After that I'll grind out the pdws, I can't wait to try getting a 140 more kills with my pp-19

edit: I forgot the A-91. I actually probably like that gun a bit more because I don't have to worry about ti switching to one of the shittier guns in the game on me.

I had a game a few nights ago with a japanese pilot who could fly like that. He was slaughtering everyone when he could get a chopper, and when he did I was sitting in his passenger seat marking people and repairing.
Eventually he got sniped out or something, I quickly switched to the pilots seat, few back to deployment, picked him up and let him take pilot again. After that he started putting on a show, flying through all sorts of obstacles, it was pretty cool.

At the end of that game he sent me a message thanking me for my help.

I love doing stuff like that, being on both sides of a game like that feels awesome. I've had similar experiences where I scout/viper whore it up and some low rank random squadmate sticks with me the entire time repairing and just enjoying the show, and afterwords I send him nice message I imagine very similar to what you got. On the flip side I've had games where I just randomly decide to jump into a pubs tank to be a dedicated gunner/repairman and then after receive a nice thank you message from the driver who was not only very happy that I repaired him the entire round, but also surprised I didn't just steal the vehicle when he got out to repair himself or whatever.

Also on the topic of fun games with randoms, I literally just finished this game: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf...36/2/174396402/ which ended up being one of, if not the most intense games I've ever played. I was actually going to call it a night since I don't really like Tehran Rush all that much, but I had a good previous match with my random squadmate (AN1DA PIPEHITT) so decided to give it a go.

Turns out the match lasted like 50 minutes and was one of those crazy 'enemy gets down to the wire on tickets but still manages to take the crates at the very end' deals but we were able to hold them off on the very last crate of the last set. Valiant effort from both teams, but the game was so drat long you can see at least 20 people quit and joined off both sides it was just nuts. Lots of variety with the kills as well from guns, tanks, swapping kits with teammate medics to revive em' then killing dudes with their guns, and a ton of RPG kills (got my RPG dogtag during this game). Also the only time I've seen two people finish with a combined 130 kills and almost virtually identical scores.

I've been playing a lot of conquest lately, but this game reminded me of the kind of intensity I've only found playing Rush.

Just check my stats on the battlefieldgoons site and I am #1 in both SMAW and RPG-7V2 kills. Funny thing is I have 100 more RPG kills then SMAW, I really think the RPG has much better sights.

I find the biggest change from BC2 to BF3 is the maps, I really think the BC2 maps were much better, even without any of the BC2 DLC. Another change I don't like is that in BC2 you could move as soon as you got on the server, having the game installed made it so that I almost always spawned first, leading to easy A caps on Arica Harbor for example. I have also received exactly 0 rage messages while in BC2 I got a constant stream of them from teabagging, seems nobody cares anymore :(

But I digress, I like BF3 it's a fun game, it could have been so much more though. Playing with friends is fun though!

I was having a night of tank whoring/dominating with a couple of other goons a couple of weeks back and at one point we were spawn camping them on Tehran Highway when I took a bit of damage from their T90, killed it, then hopped out to repair. As I was doing this some poo poo head pubby runs up out of nowhere, steals my tank and then proceeds to drive it into the no-go zone, panics, gets stuck and gets it blown up for going out of bounds. Meanwhile I try I'm stood in the middle of nowhere looking down the barrels of 10 snipers desperate for revenge and make it about 6 steps towards cover before getting body sniped by poo poo snipers.
