Battlefield 3

[zouz_]

. I have found that this games community are somewhat anti-fun recently on the ps3. when having a laugh in vehicles etc with my friends we are nearly always verbally abused for not taking the GAME seriously enough. its flicking flacking annoying is what it is.

Really? I have not been called names since the last time I played call of duty last year. That game was so horrible a gave it to a friend and asked him in return to never ever show to me. In BC2 and BF3, sure, one irascible player starts shooting at you for stealing a helicopter or a jet (that happens, but I mostly try to be the better person and I get out and let them have the vehicle), but it never got to name calling. But yeah, I think the BC2 community was mostly better.

I still see a bit of that... I spawned into the base of the level and when looking around for what toys to play with, some guy shot a rpg at someone for standing near and about to get in the attack chopper. Not that it hurt him at all since FF was off, but the whole idea of it was pretty darn childish and rude.

The servers that it is more pronounced on I tend to take those off my favorites and add the ones where folks are really decent and having a good time. Those servers tend to boot players that don't play nice with others.

That was really nice, wish I could fly that well. Props to you good sir.

I am 100% sure there is cheating ! I just got killed with a single RPG hit in a tank with reactive armor on!

[warlord_evil]

So I was ramming and spotting people with the MAV, and I saw a spawn beacon, so I used the jamming thingy to blow it up.

Well someone had put many explosives around the beacon, so it kinda set off a chain reaction and blew up a person.

Got 16:2 with the MAV only, and 9:0 the previous round with a MAV only. I'm such a noob. XD

So you're one of em MAV players *cough*campers*cough*? jk spotting is really useful for the team, but I hate the MAV trolls who keep flying around you trying to kill you . I get distracted by the MAV and some one else kills me.
BTW, reactive armor should be in the front also (for the T90), because in bc2 it had it and it saved me countless times. Now, the front is really the weakest point, and that's not very realistic, because now I turn to sides when fighting tanks. Ok, since I told you that now I can also tell you that in combat VS MBTs or RPGs, I turn to the side, and when the armor is hit and explodes, I turn around to the other side where the armor is still intact. And that's how I outlive my opponents.
And it also amazes me that jets can get out of a collision with a chopper but they'll explode if they hit a tree.

I don't have the mav yet as I don't play recon that much, but never realized that someone was flying them around. I love shooting them, but not a ton of points. More the satisfaction of spoiling someones moment. Even more that I know someone is controlling it. lol

They are a big pain when they are on the enemy team. Always getting in my way...but you can actually counter an MAV with another MAV, they can jam equipment. It's funny actually, because you can lock-on to the enemy like a plane fight and boom!

Speaking of plane fights:

Sad part, despite what he did, his team likely lost the match. (Note the score)

WAT. 10char

Exactly my reaction! warlord_evil, please explain what are you talking about. And what scoreboard?
PS: the mobile AA is vulnerable against the AAV Amtrak . And the mobile AA really killed my controller's battery because I had vibration on.

Oh I guess it was my platoons forum I was on where I saw this... Otherwise I would have brought it here a long time ago! D:

Sorry guys, I'm leaving this thread temporarily, going home to BC2.

[gdn001]

Finally getting the hang on jets. Unlocked the flares and heat-seekers, ready to face greater challenges!

Maps are better in that one than in BF3 in my opinion (Excluding B2K)

THREAD, I COMMAND YOU TO COME BACK TO THE LAND OF THE LIVING! New trailer for the June DLC:

[grayspence]

Wow. The DLC looks great! Hopefully it won't become frustrating and COD-Esque :/

[Lordwarblade]

Wow i cant wait for these new maps. The close quarter fights are my specialty and the game play in those corridors looks hectic.

The thing i like about BF3 compared to the rest is that there's a lot of variety in their maps.
What i really want though is a map based on D-Day but modernized.

Try rush on Kharg Island, it's got that same kinda feel to it.

And I don't really know what to think of the CQC thing yet. The trailer makes it look pretty cool, but i've always been one that prefers the bigger maps because of that open feel, so the deciding factor for me buying this will probably be what new guns there are going to be.

Rush is quite a bit of fun.. plus the maps are larger than the normal map areas. Like Rush on Metro you are outside in like a park. First time I played that I had no idea what the heck was going on for quite awhile till we got into where the trains were.

There is also 2 other DLC packs coming. Armored Kill and The End Game later this year. I am looking forward to Armored Kill.. new tanks, LAV's and mobile AA on new maps.
