Oh you should mention that you can't edit your loadout unless you're already in a game, or through the Battlelog site or app. because is moronic like that. Protip: you can open Battlepacks without leaving the session, through Battlelog on your browser .

So I actually have to unlock the 1911 to get the fancy scope and it's not just given to me if I logged in a game for the day? Also, I somehow make up half of entire team's kill assists and out performed the entire enemy team's kill assists... http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/battlereport/show/4/409105279101655744/202764320/

Pudgygiant posted:Battlefield 3, BC2... Best part about BC2 is that you can pretty much determine when you want the game to crash (for multiple people). "I'm playing Harvest Day and oh, that rear end in a top hat stole my tank? I'll just ram my CAV into him and take him down with me. Enjoy your lock-up, bitch!" a foolish pianist posted:I tried that out on the test range and couldn't get it to work. You gotta ADS and let the rocket fly forward just a bit longer before you reload. Then when you ADS again at a target, the first rocket will boomerang around back.

red19fire posted:Are the CR assignments broken in this game? I can only unlock things if I get everything in one round. I've done 'get a kill with dmr/shotgun/c4 in one round' several times and it doesn't seem to stick. It's the latter. As long as you see the gun unlocked in-game, you have it for good regardless of what battlelog says. Sometimes, you'll unlock the weapon but the assignment will still be active afterwards!

Spotting was originally Select. Don't how that'll work with DS4sSamurai Sanders posted:I bought BF3 for tenbux to give it a try while I wait for BF4 to unfuck itself, and since everyone I play with seems to have a thorough knowledge of the game that I don't. Anything I should know about fundamental differences going in? Namely, since it's the console port of BF3, you're limited to 24 players and downsized maps. Vehicles don't have limited ammo in BF3. So fire forever. IFVs can pretty much bring down anything and are the most over powered land vehicle in the game. Lock on weapons don't require you to keep on target. Just fire and forget. That's about it. Oh and no counter-knifing. Takedowns only work from behind. Swipes from the front do 50 damage. yellowcar fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Dec 16, 2013 |

Underwhelmed posted:So can I ask a dumb question? Why is it sometimes I join a server and non of my unlocks are present? Are there some other tiers of servers or something or is this a bug? It has never happened when I have been playing with a group so I honestly have no idea. Sometimes it doesn't sync up with the login server and it resets all your loadouts. Sometimes it might fix itself at the end of the round.

Samurai Sanders posted:I don't have a basis of comparison because this is the first online military FPS I have played extensively since early versions of Counterstrike (when it coexisted with Action Quake 2), but a lot of the mechanics are still just WEIRD to me. LMGs not being for killing people, sniper rifles having more bullet drop than assault rifles, mounted machineguns being so weak, and so on. Are these staples of online military FPSs and I don't know it? Battlefield, albeit very poorly sometimes, tries add variety to different ways of playing the multiplayer. So it's not gonna be your CS/CoD twitch shooter in some cases and relies more on you deciding on the better way to kill these mans in this and that sorts of situations.

Samurai Sanders posted:I'm still so incredibly hopeless with air vehicles. I keep changing the control schemes around to find one that doesn't result in me being a complete waste of a player when I'm in one, but I can't find anything. I mean, I can avoid running into buildings and I know how to use flares to keep myself from being blown up by missiles, but as far as offense goes I have no idea what I'm doing, I won't hit a single target ever. How can I get better? There's this Test Fire Range....

Well you mentioned control schemes, so I take it that you should practice flying until you're used to it. As for hitting targets, lead them a little before you fire and know what your aircraft is capable of actually killing. Also, be opportunistic, helping a tank gang up on other tanks is better than soloing it.
