Patch looks pretty good so far. Like the fixes to AA. Not sure how I feel about the shotgun tweaks. The Saiga is already pretty drat accurate. The reduced pellet count on the USAS doesn't seem so great. The 870 prob needs to be faster. I'd like it if the Defib paddles could kill, but that's prob never gonna happen. Just a few days till it's live. I'm sure something else will now be ridiculously broken.

So, after a few weeks hiatus, fired up BF3 again. And I think I realised why I took a break. I'm bored. First game I join, my team is being spawncamped. After being killed soon after spawning a few times, it gets boring. Quit. Second game I join, seems pretty balanced. But 5-10 minutes in, our team spawnlocks them. After a few minutes, come to the conclusion this isn't gonna change anytime soon, and again, it's gonna be a boring grind 'til the tickets empty. Quit. Try some rush for a change. Play for maybe 30 minutes before getting tired of having a team of ineffective snipers as the attacking team. The name of the server? Play The loving Objective! Without goons, the current game just gets boring/frustrating too quickly. Dunno whether I'm gonna bother with the DLC at the moment, might wait and see what the activity for it's like on the metatags before hand.

Did any non-crybabies have a problem with the level of suppression we have now? I doubt it. If anything it made support more effective. Feels good to break a spawn lock by throwing hot lead down the choke point. Besides we have squad perks for a reason. Otherwise no complaints and I eagerly await the next unforseen game breaking bug.

So I read up that FAMAS thing and apparently if one person uses it on the server it negates everyone's stats? That would explain why they kicked me. I had no idea. I was just using it because I don't have many options on assault unlocked. My bad. Though there's actually something hilarious about negating everyone's stats on a 300% ticket server heheh...

On PS3 I've come across a few official [  ] servers, I don't know how it looks on 360, but I just search for normal in the browser. There's still gonna be a poo poo list of private servers from everywhere, but so far my experience has been far better on them. That's not to say it doesn't happen, but it seems like its happening less. That said, playing with goons or people who communicate effectively CAN make all the difference, providing your team isn't woefully incompetent.

Kuhmondo posted:Sankersizzle isn't a goon, consider him a honorary non-goon bf3 friend Added to leaderboards. The "non-goon friend" functionality got ported over from the BFBC2 leaderboards but then didn't get used because self-registration didn't allow it. But it's still there so I can add dudes you all roll with and wanna compare with.

That's one thing I miss about not playing on PC--the ability to have retarded conversations with people. Everything from the "Enemy submarine spotted" in El Alamein to simply saying "affirmative" when someone is nice enough to wait for you to jump in a vehicle with them.

I was enjoying my last day of skill cannons with bluedragon and Dehatsty. Then during a round of Metro, Dehatsty and I tried C4 rush all these Frenchmen clustered around the side entrance to B. I managed to pull it off but it was at the end of the round so I didn't see how many I took with me.

He is the worst, and one of the only people that I've ever wanted to kick from my minecraft server. He got banned from our BF3 server already, I really should have kicked him. tehinternet fucked around with this message at Jun 1, 2012 around 10:44 |

Also, I don't know if it's new but the three story buildings at A on metro? You know how you can only access a small section of the third floor on each side? Well apparently once the building is blown out you can jump your way over into some otherwise inaccessible parts of the third floor and camp to your heart's content. I got myself lost in a rage filled sniper battle with some of those campers long after Begotten and Gaseous had given up on trying to break our team out of spawn lock and quit.

Though sadly uncounted on Battlelog, I assure you I have made many many Defib kills and it is literally my favorite thing to do. Get up behind someone, prone or not and just hold down Fire with Defib equipped. It comes up in the feed and everything. Edit: I just checked in my BF3Stats.com profile and it does actually count them. If you mouse over Defibrillator it tells you I've made 45 kills with it.

The humiliation kills leaderboard includes defib kills, and I use bf3stats.com's API to feed the goon leaderboard. Obviously I cannot just magick up a stat that isn't tracked on the master servers. The only thing there that sadly is not tracked is load differentiation for the M36 and M320. So smoke launcher kills and dart kills just get lumped in with the less exciting noobtubes and masterkey kills.

He's just a very unpleasant person.

I played with the guy 1 time in BC2. He's probably the most insufferable rear end in a top hat I've ever played with, and that's coming from a guy with Drekins on his friends list!

The last time I accepted a goon invite, which was probably two months ago, he turned into a raging lunatic as soon as I joined the party. He just kept yelling "Nobody wants you here! You suck! You're terrible! NOBODY WANTS YOU HERE!! WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?! WHY?!?" until the party leader finally said "Sorry guy, we've got a good team going and I can't stand listening to him" and I got kicked.

I just mute him most of the time. When he started yelling at me when I once suggested that Homefront may not end up being a very good multiplayer game, I realized that mute was the way to go. I'll still play with him if he's on though, even if he hates you he'll still revive you/give you health. But yes, I find it strange that he has anyone on his friends list at all.

literally just copy and pasting this info from the PC thread: quote:Call it E-Triple, Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3. We’re going there, and we’re bringing both Close Quarters and Armored Kill in playable form! Hopefuly the AK gameplay will restore my faith that Dice can release some good, new content in the future.

I think you can do that if you damage a vehicle that then catches fire and slowly takes damage until it explodes and kills the player inside. If you're holding your med-kit it'll associate the kill at that time to it. Same with setting up mines and hopping into a jet and the mine kills XP ends up attributed to the jet and possibly the kills too.
