do i smell delicious jelly?

wait for a patch

Don't bother using a mic, nobody ever speaks.

And if you want a jet, sit in the spawn menu and be quick, I guarantee two other people will be doing the same thing.

And another thing, if you ask a support class for ammo, you probably won't get it.

loving Engineer so far. A-91 is awesome, anyone get the Javelin? How is it?
Is it shit?
I need to know!

>>115257448
yes i like jets, but when i finally get one, for some reason teammates start shooting at me

>Scout
>Camp in the same place the entire session
>Snipe people with aimbot
80% of players do this. A scout managed to hit me when i was going 1000 miles an hour in a buggy. No way that was him.

>>115257420

>implying BF3 isn't just COD with tanks.

Defensive play, let your teammates be guinea pigs before pushing forward.

>>115257501
bugged at the moment, do not use

haven't bought it yet, but i plan to. is it worth the money or should i wait some time to get it cheaper?

Find a good server, maybe a clan server
Favourite it, play there, have fun times
Playing with good people is a LOT better than playing with random suckers

>>115257584

no it is not worth it. pirated it for SP after playing MP in both alpha and beta and it's horrid shit. worth $20 at the most

>>115257553

Fuck my preorder still didint arrive and im already regretting buying it.

>>115257567

>Don't be a dick. If someone gets in a vehicle right before you do, do not shoot at them.

I agree, but I will rocket tk the faggot that jumps in the APC and drives away with it empty.

>>115257584

Game is really nice, but hard as shit imo. I only played CS for 6 years before, and like a year COD, and i must say, that this is as hard as CS. If you have a mate in your squad, and if you're in Skype, TS whatever with him, you will own pretty much every game if your team is not retarded. I do think that it's worth the money, i paid like 35 dollars for it, and ever penny worth it.

>>115257645
yeah, beta was kinda meh, but maybe in the final version people don't suck THAT much? it felt like i was playing with some fucking romanian kids or turks, who don't know what they're supposed to do.

Best Non sniper rifle gun for long range?Also what attachments on it.

always pick off guys, never spray unless you have a very close targeting on them.

take alternate routes, if you can.

if there is vegetation nearby, bury yourself in it.

spot enemies, holy fuck, that's important.

be a good team mate (resupply, give health etc. etc.) for exp. points.

if you see a whole lot of enemies on screen, run away. your ass will get rammed if you try taking on all of them.

stick to walls and corners.

>>115257584
Get it now. It's fun as hell.
Buy a physical copy and don't be a paranoid ass and just install origin. It only launches the game for you. Browser based game launching is really not that bad.

I'd say, BUY IT AS SOON AS YOU CAN.

>>115257645
That's weird. I've played the Beta, Alpha and full game and the full game is fantastic and runs quite well.

>>115257579

Yeah, to actually hit something you need lift your sight upwards immediatly after lock-on and THEN shoot

It's still shit, though.

watch out for rats.

Aw yeah overclocked my 6850 and can run at 60+ Fps on high now instead of 60+ on medium

>>115257880

Trust me it's fun as hell, but i must say you will NEED a mate to play with, or else it's somewhat meh because your team WILL fuck up, never pressing Q etc

I just went negative and still topped the team through capturing things in conquest.Hiding beside enemy tanks and in bushes when trying to cap or get around them is the way to go.

>>115257806

just because it runs well on your setup doesn't make the gameplay any less bland or repetitive.

If you want to get good I suggest finding the guy dominating the whole thing and follow him around. observe his movements, watch how he picks his targets and how well he can clear a area out.

Adapt and apply son, adapt and apply

guys, really fucking dumb question. how do i use weapon attachments? cannot figure out how/where to attach them to my weapon?

>>115257941
>Bland
>Repetitive
This is one of the best shooters i've played in a while. The tension when you secure a flag is only a thing that Battlefield can provide. Games like CoD or Halo are just bunny hopping grenade fests.

>>115257966

When you spawn, near Squads there is a tab named "Customization" you just click the weapon you want to customize, and choose the attachments you would like to.

You have two options. They depend on whether you want to be good or be bad at the game.

If you want to be bad
>get up your ass
>try and capture the objectives
>die immediately to proning faggots since 2 body shots from any weapon kill you

If you want to be good
>ignore objectives
>find a suitable chokepoint
>go prone
>keep shooting in the general direction of enemies
>rack up 40/0 KDR

>>115257966

>spawn screen
>kits
>click on whatever kits, then click on what weapon ya wanna tweak

you can pretty much figure out everything else from there....

>>115257930
ok, i think i will get it then. if any of you guys played bc2, please tell me how long it took players to learn how to play as a team - i mean spotting enemies and actually care about objectives?

>>115258085

>>115258080

Fucking this. What the fuck were they thinking? Is there even a point in using different rifles now? It's all the same shit, the guy who shoots first wins.

>>115258183

Commo rose is useless as hell, since people just ignore you and drive away in their tank, even if you press " NEED A PICKUP"

>>115258183

Is the scopeless starter sniper still OP? I was playing a few games with it and I wasn't getting as much kills as in the beta.

>>115258542

No, please fuck off if you have no clue. I always have the Flag Attacker ribbon in every game i play. I dislike the prone faggots too.

Max out one class at a time and don't swtich weapons at all. You really gotta be in this game for the long run to be good at it.

At the moment the only class I've used is engineer. This has given me chance to get used to how the class works, what things to do in what situations, things like that. These are things only you will pick up on as everyone develops their own little tricks and tactics.

I also only use the M4A1 and AK-74u even though ive unlocked more weapons. Again, this has given me chance to get used to the weapons, understand how they handle and in what situations i should be using them. For example, the M4A1 is good at firing medium range whereas the AK-74u is a beast in close range.

At the start of playing the game I also went for all the vechicles i could just to unlock the basic gadgets and weapons to actually stand a chance using them. Flares are a good example for any air vechicle, without them youre already dead.

>>115258796
Not as much as in the beta, you need an average of three body hits for a kill.

>>115258779
Always lovely to get more dog tags from you camping guys.
Please keep your eye through the scope knowing i'm right behind you. With my knife.

I just wish people would fucking tag more often. Im in the jet alot, and after clearing the sky, all I have to do is just fly by and spray my gun at the point because I cant see a goddamned thing.

Mark that tank, and I will fly by and do as much damage as I can to it. Mark that sniper and I will make it rain on that motherfucker. Please. Just mark it. Im so bored up here, waiting for the next jet/helicopter to start up.

>>115258779
>See recon camping with 12x scope
>XBOXHUEG lens glar
>Pop out SMAW
>BOOM

Recon is most definatly an ok class if people play it right, tactically placing the spawn beacon(most important in rush) etc. If I play recon I generally but a 4x scope + straight-pull on my SV98 and go up close to them~

Oh btw I was QA on this for 10 months :)

>>115259090
>>115259245
I need battlelog info.
Want to play with guys like you.
I'm the assault/engineer guy that throws med kits at crucial choke points and repairs the tank so it can move on. Also, AT.

Should I buy this game. Is it bad company 3 or bf3?

Why are jets so useless? I can fly around, take out enemy jets and helicopters but once that is done you're just doing fucking nothing.

So is the coaxial HMG a 100% upgrade from the coaxial LMG?

>enemy use flashlights
>use them as targets

so many fucking idiots use this shit on the large maps, all it does is give you a point to shoot at.

>>115259668

LMG is better imo, the HMG shoots so damn slow.

>I am fucking retarded

>>115258796
you took more damage when running in the beta version so everything does less damage now. unfortunately for the sniper rifles, they don't shoot fast enough to make up for this.

Unlocked the Javelin not too long ago. The thing's fucking worthless.

>A shoulder launched AntiTank missile with both a direct and top attack mode. Fire-and-Forget system requires a lock on before launch, exceptionally powerful against enemy armor.

>exceptionally powerful against enemy armor.

It still takes 3 or more shots for the thing to even destroy a fucking tank. On top of that, the targeting system takes forever to lock on. The first hit's supposed to disable a tank according to DICE, but that hasn't always been the case. This thing completely obliterates tanks in one-hit IRL. They should have at least made it destroy a tank with 2 hits in-game.

For the top-down missile attack option that it's supposed to have; a recon needs to paint the target. I haven't even seen one person paint a target yet, so that's option's also useless. Not only that, if a Tank actually uses the Thermal camouflage, it further makes the Javelin more useless.

SMAW and 7V2 still top tier RPG for the Engineer, which is slightly disappointing. Unlocks should be better, right?

Any joystick bros around here? How them jets are working out for ya?

>>115260277
how many fucking time have i write this,
javelins are bugged, the impact in front of tank hence the low damage

>>115259563
It's near identical to what I would've expected in Bad Company 3, however, I find it's a lot more enjoyable to me than BC2 was.

>>115260417
>anti-alasting

>>115260277
You are supposed to shoot straight up when you have a lock, so you hit the armor from above. It does massive damage.

>>115260354
Try getting in two hits from the BACK and still seeing the tank run on fire.

How the fuck are people so good at flying planes already?
I barely ever even have the chance to use them and there are motherfuckers working them perfectly.

Is there some mission a la the helicopter mission in Co-op that lets you fly one?

>>115260564
Cant you just host your own game and practice?

>>115260483
It apparently still takes 3 direct hits even from a top-down strike depending on Reactive Armor.

I wish that the M249 didn't feel so lightweight. The M27 IAR feels more weighty when I shoot it. It feel like I'm shooting a blow dryer with the M249

score 2 hits on planes most of the time and I only get points for vehicle disabled and vehicle destroyed but never a pilot kill. why ?
I dont see the pilot bailing out or anything either

>>115260564
Myself I'm using a 360 controller for flying, it feels WAY smoother than mouse and keyboard.

what settings do you recommend for an old pc?
I have c2d e6750, GTS 450, and 2 gig of ram.

>>115260032

>dat feel when sniping recons with an M249 with IFV/ suppressor

What I hate about tanks is that if there's at least one engineer on it, it can survive a constant barrage from two engies.

>>115260883

My game occasionally freezes/locks up and I have to close it down via the task manager. Is it me or is it the buggy piece of shit game? If it's the latter I hope the patch will fix it

>>115260901
The repair tool definitely needs a nerf. Even a single Engineer can keep a tank alive for a good while.

>>115260417

how the fuck

Should I be able to play it with my 250? Haven't got money for a new one and all my friends are playing this.

Holy shit how do I pilot choppers? Jets are easy as fuck with joystick but helicopters are a mess with both keyboard and stick for me.

>>115260940
GTX580fag here, game is running smooth as silk with only a few occasional crashes on kharg island. For some reason I only crash on that map, if I start out in a jet.

bitch i love putting C4 on a tank

when i am in your opponent team - better drink your own piss

>>115261036
Use A and D to turn if you're having problems. Mouse to stabilize.

>>115261079
I lol'd.

I loved going Spec Ops in BF 2 and planting C4 on tanks, or even going jihad jeep.

They were mad as hell.

Is there somewhere a sheet out there, that describes the weapons stats like recoil, fire rate etc? we had these for all past generic military shooters and I'm wondering if there's one for BF3 aswell. Generally I'm interested if I should focus on maining this wep or if the later unlocks are "better" - because regarding LMG, nothing beats the MG249, every unlock after it is a recoil infested piece of shit (although being more deadly), only thing left to unlock for me is the M60 but I doubt it will be better...

Also, does the MG240 get better with grip? I'm inclined to just use my fully unlocked MG249 til I can try out that M60

>>115261083
Ok. I was actually using keyboard only. Do you think KB+mouse is better?

>>115260619
Well I'm playing on 360 because I'm getting a PC in a few weeks and I'm wary of all that shit I've heard about origin. Also I've tried joining empty servers but no host so I can't play and the least amount of players I've seen in a game is 18. So I'm kind of fucked until I find some way to play maps by myself or play split-screen which isn't actually available for some reason.

IR optics kick ass on tanks on the smaller maps. Zoom optics are better for large ones.

And who thought it was a good idea to create suppression? Yeah, let's blur a guy's vision when he's trying to tell where he's getting shot from, that's brilliant!

>>115261342

Yeah stop playing and go back to CoD, fucking K/D kiddo.

>>115260980
You can def play it. Im using my HD4879 on low medium.

>>115261223
THATS THE FUCKING POINT IDIOT. Its makes teamwork that much more effective. If you're getting suppressed you should either have a squad ability to resist suppression or have someone on your squad who is also a support class lay down some suppressive fire.

K/D ratio doesn't matter much.

>>115261192
Yeah, the mouse is pretty important for diving and climbing, not to mention quick recovery after turning and getting hit.

>>115261342
Fuck no. This isn't a game that values K/D and 360 noscopes. Just play the game and relish each kill you get.

>>115261201
Fucking hell, joined a DICE empty server but you have to wait for players to join to actually fucking play a match.
It's like DICE fucking wants us all to camp for jets and crash them three seconds later.

How to become a good Support class? just throw ammo boxes and supress enemies? I always die when I exchange gunfire with enemies. I have to unload all my magazine and they only need to hit me with 2 bullets. fucking annoying

Be advised, clusterfuck imminent.

24 players feels good man. could be 32, but whatever, 64 is ridiculous for these maps.

>>115258542

I have a KDR of 3.3, and a Win/Loss ratio of 3.45.

I think you're just jealous.

>>115263213
yeah I do miss it when there is a friendly tank around but it seems a lot of the time there friendly tanks are either running away or dead anyway, AT mines seem much better source of points and also totally rape enemy vehicles

>>115262474
Isn't the SOFLAM suppose to designate targets on it's own? Not sure if it works though. If you designate targets on your own you get points, but I have never got any score whatsoever from the SOFLAM without manually using it.

whats the point of the silencer? do you appear on the radar when you shoot without it?

>>115263304
Sounds like you're having fun bro.

>bf3

>>115263373
Yes. But in this game it doesn't really seem to matter since people shoot at everything.

>>115263188
Switch half of them to the lockers, and the other half spread over their spawn, and boom you have what I just played.

Got a quad from a grenade and sprayed-and-prayed a triple in the lockers. My team cleared out the rest.
Got us the momentum to conquer the middle completely.

try learning the maps, and not playing the shithole that is called Seine Crossing

Do you play this game 24/7?

Sure. I've learned having at least one buddy helps a shit ton. My friend and I will play as Engineers and jump in Tanks spotting people/vehicles. With this strategy I also use land mines and just plant them every time I respawn. Tons of points disabling vehicles and then blasting them with RPGs. I just discovered this today but if you play small teams like 9v9 or 8v8 conquest you will earn at least 6000 points being the bottom. 12000 or more being top player. The game play is still very fun with having that amount of players.

At how many jet points do you unlock the laser-guided missiles?

>>115263435
That is a ratio of 8.5 wins for every loss.

>>115263093
>>115263473
Drop ammo packs. FUCKING PEOPLE DON'T EVER DROP AMMO EVER.

>dat feel when everybody has better stats than me

>>115263512
Kind of. Having way too much fun and just don't want to put it down.

does anyone know if you unlock a ghillie suit as like the final uniform

>>115263473
I'm on a killstreak. Pretty soon I'm going to be able to call in a nuke. That's when shit gets real son.

the commo rose is nice, but needs a Request Ammo/Healing option, being able to thank guys is really nice though

>>115263598
Same here bro, let's go camp as recons on that hill over yonder.

>>115263621
Final is Spec Ops Black. I think.

>whats the point of the silencer? do you appear on the radar when you shoot without it?

Yeah you dont show up on the minimap as a red triangle, and obviously you make less sound.

>>115263598
I love you.

>>115263670
this displeases me

>>115263598
Don't worry, bro. The only thing that matters is having fun. Have fun sucking!

>>115263578
Feels pretty bad having to chase stupid support dudes as an AA engi on Caspian while a gunship is raping a base.

what guns are good for assault class?

>>115263729
Forever Urban Camo here.

>>115263093

Bipod is usually terrible, you'll get sniped quick as fuck.
You're better off going for Foregrip, KOBRA (RDS) and extended magazines.

Also pick the increased suppressive fire trait, enemies will duck and cover so quickly at your bullets whizzing by the team will be able to capture everything easily.

Also, throw ammo whenever you see more than two people at a spot.

You have no idea how good it feels to have 200 bullets available.

>>115263637
>the commo rose is nice, but needs a Request Ammo/Healing option

You probably already know but ill say it anyway, if you need ammo/healing you can look at a medic/support player and press Q and you will say something like "i need ammo man!", of course he will ignore you and not give you ammo anyway but thats how it goes.

So I just unlocked Explosives Perk as Engineer.

Mines+Stinger on Caspian

Holy shit vehicle disabled everywhere

>>115263832
Support master race here!
>brofist.jpg

>>115263800
i want this instead

>>115263837
yeah I knew that, I still think the range on that call out is too short, I've been killed chasing after Support guys begging for bullets all to often

meh, I try to cram in has much play time.

>>115263895
I'd wear the shit out of that.

Does the suppression perk work for all guns?

what exactly does it do?

>>115263473
put down lots of suppression fire. spray at everything more than you think you need to. you have 200 round mags, and unlimited ammo. when you spray at the enemy it fucks up their vision so your team can kill them easier. sometimes as soon as someone fires at me i dont even aim down sites, i just point and spray without even knowing where they are. then i take cover, figure out where they are, and finish them off. also, bipod can hold down a chokepoint pretty damn good.

right now i run the SAW with a grip, and scope, and the extra suppresion fire perk. the grip really helps.

you also have c4, claymores, (mortars are faggotry lol you just get mortared back as soon as they figure you out). set those accordingly.

>>115263971
blurs the enemy vision when you shoot near them

>>115263895
I want some Santa camo.

Also, this is my reaction to eliminating a whole squad.

M416 is a really good gun, it's the second gun you unlock for the assault class.

You can also unlock some weapons from doing co-op missions.
MP412 REX - 63,000 score - All kit revolver side arm.
KH2002 - 126,000 score - Assault kit assault rifle.
MP7 - 189,000 score - All kit SMG.
M39 EMR - 252,000 score - Recon kit rifle.
93R - 315,000 score - All kit side arm.
SG553 - 378,000 score - Engineer kit carbine.
G3A3 - 441,000 score - Assault kit assault rifle.

>>115263545
bump

can anyone explain how the javelin works ? it says it has 2 firing modes but how do choose? i only manage to lock on and fire. same applies to the mortar how do you switch to smake shells

>bros get BF3
>they only play TDM

what the fucking shit? fuck you faggots im off to play conquest and rush

>>115264387
Go check your stats page on the battlelog, you can view all upgrades there.

>>115264156
My niggah.

>>115264119
as you get further in the ranks you should get camo that is progressively more ridiculous to make it harder, i want pink soldiers running around caspian border go dammit

>>115264399
The javelin's "top fire" mode is only available for targets that have been lazed by a recon gadget that no one ever uses. It automatically fires in "top fire" mode if the target has been lazed.

No idea how to get the mortar to fire smoke, but I'd really like to know too.

What does the Maintenance v.perk do? it seems there's no page for it on B-log

Hmm, is there somewhere a sheet out there, that describes the weapons stats like recoil, fire rate etc? we had these for all past generic military shooters and I'm wondering if there's one for BF3 aswell. Generally I'm interested if I should focus on maining this wep or if the later unlocks are "better" - because regarding LMG, nothing beats the MG249, every unlock after it is a recoil infested piece of shit (although being more deadly), only thing left to unlock for me is the M60 but I doubt it will be better...

Also, does the MG240 get better with grip? I'm inclined to just use my fully unlocked MG249 til I can try out that M60

Is anyone else having crash problems?
I mainly crash while changing the map and the screen just goes black. I get the Battlefield 3.exe has stopped working error too.

>>115264645
You can check the information in-game while changing the kit

>>115264645
It pretty gives your vehicle regenerating health, like your own, maybe a bit slower. It's worth it.

>>115264783
I haven't unlocked it yet, I'm 1000 points off

>>115264692
i prefer the grip over the bipod. you can feel the difference.

MMMMMMMMMMMMM SO GUD

Can someone explain how vehicle perks work? Specifically for the IFV and tank, do I have to be the actual driver for them to take effect? What about passive perks like thermal camo, do they still apply if I'm the gunner/passenger? Do they stack?

>>115264876
My farthest marksman headshot was 303.

>>115264876
it's still 2 shots to kill. i don't see why you would use the slower gun.

So the SCAR-H is pure sex, agreed?

>>115264645
The maintenance unlock improves the tank’s health regen.

ok thanks. if that's the case the javelin really sucks

I wonder what the game will be like once everyone has soflams, javelins and squad perks unlocked

>>115265097
as long as theyre not disabled, and arent getting hit, they will eventually regen. a weird feature to have in the game if you ask me.

When you play CQ and spawn on a controlled point you will always spawn on your team's side - meaning you'll spawn with your back to your deployment facing the point you spawned out.

Remember this when fighting for control of a point to not let enemies spawn behind you.
