So much so that I occasionally refer to them as "Verlanders" now. As in: "Every flag I drive up to is crawling with goddam Verlanders."

That's awesome... Can we refer to the Assault guys as Dennis Haysbert, or just Allstate Guys?



I mean, afterall... You're in good hands with them around.

I don't remember which goon totally ragequit after I wound up on the other team as him some time last week and kept taking him down with the AS VAL and him complaining about being killed by "such a lovely gun" each time I demolished him with it, but that was a good time. I should probably knock out another round of co-op to get the MP7.

Seriously though, the AS VAL owns, it handles so much like my beloved VSS from BC2 that I can't help but love it. I should probably try slapping a 6x on it and reliving the glory days.

Your turn radius is smaller (IE, you turn faster) at LOWER speeds, not higher ones. Use your brakes in a turn.

What I've heard is (and maybe you meant this) that you decelerate into the turn, and then accelerate out of it for the quickest possible turn.

I enjoyed just spotting for Someguy in the co-pilot seat while he wreaked havoc and performed daring aerial maneuvers.

Also, dropping C4 out the side of a scout is more fun than it has any right to be, and see? There are aerial bombardment vehicles in BF3. Tada!

Wait, which addition was this? Embedding unlicensed music on the kill sheets? Or did I overlook a serious suggestion? I'll be happy to do it if it's reasonable. Even without the dollar!

Although my wife keeps saying that I should throw a PayPal donate button on there given the number of hours I've drained into this. But that just feels skeazy, and I'm not starving.

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


If you dashboard during the between round screen, you actually do get a quit. No I don't know why. It's a fact
And to comment, I actually like TDM. It's better than conquest on firestorm thats for drat sure. I'm tired of playing base raping and ring around the flags, at least TDM I can get like 10-20 kills in 10 minutes. My biggest problem is that is does have a pretty negative affect on your SPM and W/L ratio. It's very hard to break 2000 points in a 10 minute TDM match, where as its nearly impossible (provided you aren't a mongoloid) to not get 2000 points in a 10 minute CQ match. The W/L is problematic as no matter how good you are, you can't possibly make up for 11 mouth breathers. More often than not when you see a guy going 2-12 on your team, you probably lost. The kids who play TDM are mostly retarded, so don't ever expect anyone to throw down a medkit or revive or anything like that, but that's why its fun.

TDM is the only way I'll play sharqi peninsula. However, I find it hard to believe soldiers want to fight on this map when they should be more concerned with the fact that the sun is going supernova. The team with the sun on their back has such an unbelievably huge advantage as there really isn't much flank ability in this terrible poo poo map.
The worst gun is the PP-19. It's objective fact.
I really cannot understand why anyone would like the m416. It fires slower, and reloads slower than the m16a3. What is its mystical advantage? I really didn't like the gun and it felt way less accurate than the laser beam of the m16.

However, for those of you suffering in the trenches of sdm, I have to say the reward is pretty awesome. The L85A2 is a loving beast. It fires slow, and reload slower than an F2000, but its super accurate. I really love that its really accurate while standing or moving.

Yeah I gotta say there was a dude murdering me at hell of range with the L85 on Metro the other day. I had a sniper rifle out and even before I could line up the shot on him he'd single shot me twice in the face.
