Manatee Cannon posted:Edit: If you're interested in the L85, it kind of reminds me of the T88 LMG from BC2. Slower fire rate and let's be honest it's not the best option to choose when there's guns like the FAMAS or AEK to compete with, but it just feels right. I haven't unlocked it yet but I want to simply because it looks awesome with an ACOG. But gently caress SQDM. Space Jam fucked around with this message at Jan 15, 2012 around 07:54 |

Nashlogic posted:I thought you couldn't teamkill in regular, like if you c4ed the building wouldn't they have all died due to "Bad Luck"? Yesterday I shot the gas pumps at D on Caspian Border and killed a teammate on accident, and it said he had killed himself (x is no more). It seems like C4 has a similar effect.

Oppenheimer posted: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. Too bad there isn't a hunting orange camo.

I managed a 477m headshot on Tehran Highway with the SV98 once, shot from the US deployment at a guy standing on the overpass. He was stationary though.

Dongattack posted:Hey guys, i have been playing the PC version for a relative long time, but now my friend wants to play together on the PS3 version and i'm wondering what kinda differences there are. Like for instance are there dedicated servers? Is there a squad voice communication system? Or anything else i should know. Yeah, there are dedicated servers hosted by and EA. There's a server browser too, I'd imagine it's the same thing the PC has. I don't have the PS3 version but I've heard of really bad voice chat problems, but a fix is on the way (???). You'll probably be a little underwhelmed by most console maps in comparison to the PC. A few of them are too big for 24 players (Caspian Border) and you'll play musical flags the whole round. It varies, though. I've seen some intense Border games.

Mr Cynicism posted:I cant find anything to repair. I already got the blow torch kill on my first try. I even killed him face to face with it but Ill never get the HK53 at this rate. I was even going into my spawn, shooting rockets at the vehicles and then trying to repair them but I wasn't getting any points for it. Try hitching a ride on the scout helicopters on Damavand or Nosehair Canals, repair it as it gets shot. This is great for guaranteed repairs. And a teammate needs to be in the vehicle in order to get repair points.

Metro is fun if your team isn't completely terrible. If they right off the bat cap 2 flags and proceed straight to the 3rd/enemy spawn only to have a few guys slip past and cap both flags behind us, it's the worst. Best Metro round I ever had was with 2 other goons, it was neck and neck the entire game, B going back and forth. I managed to get just shy of 10,000 points from heals and the hurt locker. Then the server crashed at the after action report.

dog nougat posted:Gonna chime in to say that the M16 kicks rear end. Super accurate with short bursts, fast reload. Too bad it's selection as your weapon doesn't persist from match to match. This still bugs the hell out of me. After unlocking the M16/AKS-74U for assault it should persist as an independent weapon and not behave as if they're still your first assault class rifles/specific to team.

Scarf posted:Bailing out of a tunguska and letting the enemy take it is an act of treason and is punishable by death. Had a similar thing happen in rush, I shot their tunguska with a single rpg and the guy hopped out and tried to repair it, because any vehicle damage should be repaired immediately at all costs. I stole it, shot him, as well as most of his team. I wish I could have seen his face

I've been going back and playing BC2 since I never got into it that much, and it's kind of making me sad. The BC2 maps are already starting to spoil me. My biggest problem with BF3 right now are the poorly scaled down maps, like Caspian Boreder. Karkand is a larger map which is fun, same for Seine Crossing. More urban type maps seem to suit this game much better. But maps like CB and Operation Fuckstorm really bug me. CB would be a lot more tolerable if they just went with checkpoint, hill and gas station to move the RU and US spawns behind their respective first flags.

I managed to get a tree clipped to my BTR-90 on Oman, then got stuck on a rock. In the process of trying to get it unstuck, I managed to get it clipped half way into the ground as it kicked up a massive cloud of dust. I got hit with a Javelin and my BTR rocketed across the desert, mid-air at one point. My first laugh till you cry battlefield moment.

Manatee Cannon posted:On Metro I like to put my MAV/TUGS near the sign in between the two sets of stairways. That lets you see everyone on all of the possible approaches. Or down the set of stairs closer to A; there's a room down there you can hide your equipment in. On Crossing you can put it in between A and C and cover both flags. Though it all depends on your game type of choice. Just keep an eye out for where people like to go and put your motion sensor there. The garage across from the one with the van at A on Seine Crossing is great too. It'll only cover half of C though, but it covers both sets of stairs going to A from C.
