***Battlefield 3 - Thread #2***

[DoesntLift]

I was shot down 4 times by tanks on Firestorm yesterday in 2 separate games without any lock on signal. Is this some sort of glitch or pure coincidence? Didn't have this problem on Caspian border at all so it seems odd. I know they made tanks OHK on aerial vehicles but 3 times in one game(1 in the other) from half way across the map is pretty absurd. This is on Xbox btw.

I can't even get it to stay on the gun I want. I pick the M416 and customize it but when I deploy it defaults back to the M4 with attachments I didn't even pick. Only played 2 or 3 games before I raged quit. Could just be me but does it seem that you run faster now?

yeah, was getting annoying everytime a map loads having to go back in and reselect your weapon.

[Pacificbrah]

It is not the same anymore man (I had 5000+ kills pre patch with it). It just seems weaker IMO. The KH2000 is now my go to assault gun.

Guns I have had the most success with post patch...

Assault - KH2000 w/ grip, heavy barrel, and kobra rds
Engineer - 870 shotgun
Support - RPK extended mag and suppression perk lololololol
Recon - SKS with red dot, grip, and laser sight

Lost all my motivation to play now thou, thats why i havent been on.

Kinda where I am now, but my friends that play BF3 do it too early for me. I don't get a chance to molest my xbox until midnight or later sometimes.

[Dup15]

What do you guys think of the nerf Recons got?
BRB shooting comets from my sniper rifle, can't see where bullet hit because tracer is larger than the enemy and just dissapears.
BRB hitboxes ****ed up(maybe lag?)
BRB breath holding function now whacky as fck

Does this make you play the Recon less or what?

SKS seems to be the new OP gun now.

Zoom perk on the tank is pretty powerful. My friend can hit choppers easily with that thing.

See you then. Added you but I think you send me a request from another account? K.Kong? Added both so delete the one you don't want me on.

[Solidz]

f2000 sucks dick now. switched over to the ak74m and seems ok with rds grip and heavy barrell

[Beliedat]

Took some time off, got a 560ti and the patch and played again last night.

Anyone notice almost all the support LMGs suck total balls at long-ish range? I used to use mg36 and a 3.4x, but now I can't even hit stationary targets, sht sprays everywhere even in bursts.

On the other hand, oh lawd the 240 is so nice now. Mowing down *******s with impunity now.

If anyone wants to play on PC my Origin name is *******ronn.

[toasted11]

Got back into playing recently. BF3 seems more or less dead from the misc perspective but if anyone wants to play sometime, my OriginID is BattleB0nr.

Also, holy fuk COVR is so important now. Still getting surpressed as fuk with it

[Midgetkiller]

Damn I really can't get over how they nerfed the F2000, it's half as effective as before now. It's my favorite gun irl, so sexy and cool. =(

[BroDawg]

I don't understand why people are saying the F2000 and FAMAS got nerfed. According to this, the F2000 was buffed and the FAMAS wasn't changed exepct for matching the cross platform stats.
from the patch notes

"-F2000: Reduced vertical recoil, increased zoomed accuracy slightly. As a bullpup, the F2000 has a bonus to accuracy on the move and from the hip while its high rate of fire sacrifices controllability for saturation. The previous changes were an overreaction, this is a corrective update."

"-FAMAS: The FAMAS combines an extreme rate of fire with extreme recoil making it very difficult to use at anything other than close quarters combat. Due to update restrictions, the FAMAS had different stats on all 3 platforms. The FAMAS is now uniform on all platforms and now has the correct 25 round magazine."

[JSC90]

It feels like a worse game now, gun-wise at least. For some reason, they all seem weaker to me and have a lot more recoil. I might just go back to MW3 now lol since it has better gun-on-gun play as of the BF3 patch.

[LaxinAround]

god this suppression is ridiculous

[randomguest]

"-FAMAS: The FAMAS combines an extreme rate of fire with extreme recoil making it very difficult to use at anything other than close quarters combat. Due to update restrictions, the FAMAS had different stats on all 3 platforms. The FAMAS is now uniform on all platforms and now has the correct 25 round magazine."

The only problem with the Famas was that on PS3 and maybe Xbox it had a 31 round magazine. With the change to 25 rounds, you seem to be reloading more than actually shooting. And if I recall correctly, the Famas has one of the slowest reload times out of the Assualt Rifles. I switched over to the KH2002 and find it very similar to the Famas though.

And just for the lulz, if anyone has ever seen these:



PART 2 AND 3 ARE EQUALLY AS GOOD

Lol, lost it at the mini heli

[Zitnik]

Add me on PC, bros. My OriginID is the same as my forum name.

And speaking of Origin, buncha phucks charged me FOUR times for one of those new weapon kit unlocks you can buy. I wanted to buy the Co Op one to unlock all of the guns you unlock through Co Op, cuz I'll never play Coop so I'll never unlock them so I was like I'll just buy em so I have em, it's $5 so not bad. Well, I put in my bank/card info and when I clicked "Check Out" it said it couldn't verify my bank information, which was correct, BTW as I checked it 3 times and clicked "Check Out" and each time it said it couldn't verify my information so I figured I just couldn't buy it so w/e. Well, I check my statement this morning and Origin charged me four times for it, what a bunch of phucks. So I talked to a customer service rep on the live chat and they said my order was still open and being processed and they'd remove 3 of the charges once it processed and give me the unlock thing. At least it was only a $5 charge each time, rather than some ridiculous $30 charge or something.

Xbox never hd a 31 round mag. I think it was 26.

swap to pistol>reload......I never really notice the difference in reload times between assualt rifles

[Zitnik]

ya'll 'mirin those stats in the image below?

[Fist-Of-Freedom]

anyone who used to complain about tanks being too powerful must not know who to move and find new cover. Ive taken out so many tanks alone by just waiting for them to go by you, shoot them in the ass, run 10 feet to the side behind a new crate, box, etc. shoot him again, run to a new spot, shoot him again, easy as fuuu


tanks turrets aren't fast enough to track a person who keeps moving and finding new cover, hell half the time i run right up next to the tank where he cant see me and then just circle him, blasting him with rpgs


Now, post patch, i murder tanks

and i shot down 3 helos yesterday with RPG, dem nuggas need to fly high

I agree, I don't even use tanks, but now the entire "cat and mouse" fun gameplay has been taken away and they are just too easy to kill now.

If the beta looked like this I would never had bought the game.

[snoborder]

The sound effects are so terrible now. Ecm jammer is worthless in the jets now. Jets lock on entirely too fast. I'm still doing well but they definitely brought the game down.

[blkbelt42]

wtf!!?!? just noticed last night clips in many weapons much smaller now.

[irish brah]

Are attack choppers paper bags now?

I was playing Caspian Border last night, just left my spawn and got a beep beep, hit ecm and got taken out by a tank guided shell, it happen twice..

No warning, just a quick beep and by the time I hit ecm I'm dead, on xbox
