battlefield 3

Recommended Posts

I've been playing mainly as recon and assault... Though I need to start focusing on the support role. All depends on the maps though.

Recon class is beastly when you unlock the SV98 rifle and scopes, you can get lots of nice one shot kills...

I want to unlock the flying drone soon..

and the mobile respawn point is very useful, can't rule any classes out really.

My recon class is the least developed, I've only just unlocked the SV98. That class just takes longer to get kills with , unless you equip a shotgun/PDW or you are a good sniper. I dislike Recon at the min, I can't lie - but that's because I haven't unlocked everything. I wanna get the SOFLAM laser designator and the MAV flying bot thing so I can do shit like this..

Hang tight man like mp_star, went in hard yesterday sir. Good couple of games, managed to bag a couple knife kills and some decent streaks. Bare duppiez :ghost:

Not really rating the mortar, don't think it's overpowered at all. Was gassed when I unlocked it though. Javelin is aight but needs the SOFLAM to do proper damage.

Love the SCAR, G36, A-91 and PKP Pecheneg, M1014/870 shotties. Glock 17 is sweet, glad they ironed out the buggy firing animations and the boogs sound effects. Even though I dissed Recon, guns like the SKS are deep, and I tested out another semi-auto rifle, the M39 EMR which is pretty serious.

Still can't really fly choppers, pissed. Used to be able to circle strafe buildings and shit in BFBC2, cant do any of that shit yet <_<

Tips for people who wanna get more points, play CQ or Rush. CQ is a points monster if you can play the objective and give/take orders, bagged 11000 points with that one. Never jump in the tanks to start off with, get a chopper or a jeep and go straight for the FURTHEST objective. Always start as engineer, bring plenty of mines and you're set!

Got BARE mine kills yesterday :lol:

What are your tactics? Do you plant and then watch the minimap/keep a line of sight, or do you run up and slap it on tanks? I quite like booby trapping vehicles and leaving them around for someone to take.

OH - and a tip with the mines. Try and use tight clusters of mines rather than randomly spread ones. I was getting bare Vehicle Disabled notices but no kills until I started grouping my mines a little better. Ideally you want as much boom as you can get, so stack those mines up people...

You could lob C4s quite far in BFBC2, this throw in this is pathetically weak.

i mostly use C4 when defending

depending on the battle situation i'll blow up the surrounding walls or obstructions around an M-COMM. This stops any cheeky guys that attempt to sneak in by jeep and crawl their way through. It allows my team to easily spot the target from most angles and any approaching enemies should any of them attempt or manage to arm it.

If i lose both M-COMMs and i'm retreating back, i'll plant C4 on the baitest areas that snipers can hide. eg, trees and other obstacles on hills that snipers will hide behind when everyone settles in their positions.

Its not often i get to plant C4 direct on a tank. Its not worth the risk. You can barely throw it and most of the time if i'm near a tank i'll get capped by the gunner etc

Nothing better than getting mine kills on those fucking tanks

/

fuck them guys that are sick on the chopper, I must have shot this guy 12 times yesterday he kept coming back :angry:

Bruv...that guy would not go down, I must have lashed 9 rockets at him. He had anti-lock on, took twice as long to tag him and by that time he'd either popped flares, or fucked off back across the map out of range. I was so pissed, he killed me bare times... Getting sonned by a level 35 <<<<< <_<

Feeling

The 40mm M320 buck...devastation on TDM. I was like 19:3 one game, 23:6 the next...absolutely savage gun, one-shot kills at close range, I managed to headshot a guy 21 meters away :lol:

The sound effects. Rockets whistling down a tunnel sound sick. The crack sound when a sniper is shooting at you, or the bursting sound when you get a headshot >>>

Killing enemies mid-sentence. Wigged a guy while he was still halfway through shouting 'I'm pinned, I'm pinned, I ca-'. :lol:

The scout choppers with the machine guns/rockets...deep. Landing on a roof to capture a conquest objective...bawse business.

The tactical freedom in general.

Not feeling

The little stumbling blocks you come across in maps. Why the fuck you can't jump through a glass window without breaking it first is beyond me. Dumb little obstacles.

Player limit. Old school grievance though, still.

Strange indestructible walls.

Still, definitely the best FPS I've played in years. Possibly since Counterstrike back in the day...definitely better than BF2!

Gonna have to limit my playtime soon, got some pretty good guns unlocked though. My time played is 34 hours :blink: I'm level 27 at the moment, next unlocks are M16A4, Engineer badge, M240b and the SOFLAM.

Still haven't learnt the maps inside out, but getting used to Kharg, Seine, Noshahr Canals on TDM/CQ. Not played much Rush, not used to the traffic routes yet.

I don't get why people are on a one or the other ting, why not play both? :/

I'm a gamer, straight.. It's not like back in the day where you either had a Megadrive with Sonic or a Nintendo with Mario, games are cross-platform now..I don't get where the fanboyism comes from.

They're both good FPS games, and both offer different experiences. You man are acting like you've been given an ultimatum by your side bitch and your main bitch...as if game loyalty matters :lol:

CoD will always offer the standard CoD experience, repackaged, reskinned, cool. It works, it's fun..cool. But BF3 are stepping the levels up. BFBC2 pushed the bounderies and tested the water,

As for who is the better developer? I'd say DICE have it down, they are coming fresh, new and exciting and they deserve the recognition. It's a great game, and offers some sick experiences. The amount of ill videos that are coming out, like the James Bond helicopter vid and shit...there is just unrepeatable action that you can't beat.

Shooting down a UAV or an AC130 with a Predator is sick, as is 360 quickscoping....But trust me, all that seems so vanilla once you down your first chopper with nothing more than your sniper rifle...

Personally I would find it hard to play 2 First Person Shooters. Similar to owning PES and FIFA, Not really gonna play both are you. I suppose BF3 has a bit of a different element to it's gameplay which might bring some value to going back to it from time to time. Right now I am expecting MW3 to take up all my available playing time when it drops.
