>>116127614
So pretty close to the PC version then.

>>116127396

Because you can do 7000 instead of 1000 points on regular maps

Pussies.

For some reason my M26 MASS won't attach under my AEK-971 even when I have the rail equipped. It works on the M320 though. What gives?

>>116128280
Hardcore modes in any game is a pure campfest

How the fuck do I get better W/L ratio? I always keep ending up in the losing team.

>>116128377
switch teams when you realize your team is full of losers
try to contribute to your new team so you don't drag them down so far that they now become the losers

>>116128377
play with friends

>People care about their w/l ratio
Noone is gonna check your profiles if that's what you believe.

>>116128644
looks like consolitis to me
i'd imagine console users can use their voice chat during it to shit talk each other

>>116128793
They can't. Only with their squad.

>>116128788
No, but my friends are.

>>116128793
Halo 3 was the first game I played that did this. I'm sitting there wondering why I have to listen to shit talk for a minute for no reason other than the devs wanted an intermission.

>that feel when none of my friends buy any games and they all have shit systems so they just play the same source games and mods for literally years

How the fuck is this possible? Those fucks can't even scrape up 60 godamn dollars for this game. Then they would probably complain about their FPS being low because their systems are shit, and they always buy cheap parts that break.

how much more experience is there in hardcore mode?
is it for kills only, or do other actions also give more experience?

I just made this to convey my feelings of the past two hours of trying to public co-op.

>>116129156
You're both shitty hosts. Open some ports on that bitch.

>>116129156
fucking lol'd at picture.

Anybody know if you can show ping in-game? When I start rubberbanding, I want to know if it's my internet connection fucking up, or the server.

>>116129001
>How the fuck is this possible?
Because they're having fun playing the games they've enjoyed for so long and still enjoy while you have to keep shelling out money for your yearly generic shooters.

But that's just my theory. :3

>>116128280
What's the difference between hardcore and normal?

>>116127259
Must be a variety server.

irnv is bullshit

>>116129525
Hardcore: No regenerating health. And depending on the server, no Ammo/Health count or map.

>>116128001
This

You can't carry 25+ retards especially when you join with 10 tickets left

>>116128644
BC2 loaded the map during the end-round screen, I think dice just went full retard

>>116130590
Not only that, 40% of the max health.

No regen servers (BF2 settings) are the best ones for teamplay.

>>116131528
So instead of firing a ridiculous amount of 6-7 bullets at an enemy, I get away with 2-3? Man, that's awesome.

>>116131614
6-7 bullets in BF3?

Are you shooting russians with your dick? 4 bullets are more than enough.

>>116132003
Even better, that's 1-2 bullets an enemy.

My PDW weapons require quite the amount of bullets to kill someone. When not doing rapid headshots that is.
Also

What is everyones favourite.. uh, bonus? i.e sprint, ammo, flak and all that.
I usually went with Squad sprint but now am using squad ammo since I always end up having no ammo and obviously the supports never drop anything.
While explosives when I'm engineer for mines/RPG spam

Hardcore is for cod fags and recons.
2 - 3 bullets to kill Just like cod
No spotting, just like cod
camping, just like cod.
snipers everywhere, just like cod

This happened, not bullshitting.
Battlefield stories general?

>>116132778

He's never played a hardcore gamemode in CoD

>>116132778
There is spotting, just 2D spotting. i.e the mini map.
The games usually play out the same. Atleast on conquest. Just people die easier.

>>116132938
Wow, that sounds ass-kickingly awesome. No sarcasm. Sometimes I don't think I realise what kind of a kickass game I'm playing.

>>116132938
This is the only remotely mentionable game I've had so far.
Coming back from being 80 tickets down to not knowing who won when the game ended was insane.

>filter out game mode rotations

Also, today has been pretty fucking shit for playing BF3:

>stuck on losing team and cant switch
>enemy team is just base-raping every node with 3-4 tanks, including some they claimed from us because our teammates are fucking retarded
>watch as a loltrain of engineers follow behind all the tanks as sparks shower around them and skulls pop up all over my screen

>find new server
>losing team again, what a surprise
>entire team is holed up in gas station while a M1 Abrams just shells it getting 5 people per shell
>people are still squad spawning into shells like fucking idiots
>leave
>find new server
>repeat all the above bullshit for another 2 hours until I give up and decide tog et a head start on homework

Pretty aggravating. Probably just not going to play for the rest of the weekend to be honest.

>>116133299
Sometimes cool things happen.

It happends more often if you're playing with friends.

So which one of you faggots was playing Caspian Border last night? You were max level and your dog tag said you had over1,500 jet kills. At first I was impressed but then I realized how long this game has been out for and how many hours you must have put into it, then I just felt bad.

>>116133446

>squad mates spawning on each other giving the tank 5 kills per shell

Reminds me of a Conquest on Grand Bazaar yesterday. Our entire team was clusterfucking the alleyway (it was the only point we had) and kept respawning into M320's and mortars. I told them to spawn at the original spawn to avoid instant death and nobody listened.

>Playing Conquest on Metro as Russians

But seriously though, conquest on Metro is a terribad map.It is nearly impossible for the Americans to win unless the other team is really bad. It's the only map where you can't get to A without taking B first. And the shitty part is Dice can't do anything about it. It will always be free points for the Russians.

>>116134761
I might have been in that game.
Got fucking 7 kills in 3 seconds from something a lot like that. Even the people running out of the room on the right got mowed down almost instantly.

>>116134761

That's because the contested area in the middle was designed in rush mode to give defenders one last advantage before attackers steamrolled them.

By bottlenecking attackers into 3 distinct choke points and forcing them to ascend from the lower level, you're satisfying this rush requirement. It just doesn't pan out in conquest though.
