Can I add some of you guys from the gtp platoon?
PSN:smuffyatfcp

Add gogatrs.
Otherwise I'll forget to add you. :scared:
Anyone else can as well.
Just mention that you're from GTP.
 
I bet that most of you got the LE, any of you would recommend getting the Back to Karkand expansion for 15euros?

Well, what are your favorite maps that you have already?
And why?
 
My favourite maps so far are Operation Firestorm because I have some fun owning noobs in the helicopters, jets and Operation Metro because it's just pure infantry war.
 
I went to the EA site and complained that my B2K code didn't work by using the "chat to an advisor" function, and they gave me a new one.

Just sayin.....

:sly:👍
 
Went 31-10 on Bazaar just before. Database rebuild seems to have helped with my freezing. Still get the occasional one but not five in a row like the other night. Recommend it to anyone having frequent freezes. Just google PS3 database rebuild.

I like Bazaar Rush for the mayhem that takes place there. Went 25 -3 there once with my M60E4.

That is way different, you had the LE so they are forced to give you a new one. Now imagine if I didn't had one and lied to them so I could get one, I could end up banned.

My team was triple capped and being spawn camped within a minute of the game starting on Damavand Peak

What the hell were they doing?
Playing tiddlywinks.

Cheers Shaun.
 
Hilarity! I can control day and night! :lol: :lol:


OMG when someone posted the first two BFF vids, i said whats the odds the USAS & and frags would be next. LoL :) . I thought the Noob support guy would be using it though :)
 
That reminds me, I thought the patch was supposed to make flares distract laser guided missiles, but they don't.

Who said I had LE?

Yeah, you could end up banned!
Or they could send the BF police to your house by tracing your ISP and then your IP address.
They'd make sure you paid that £10......

Forgive me, you are right, and I am morally wrong, it's just that usually, I don't have to explain that to people, they just know I am.

So maybe you should pay for it.

It is definitely worth paying for.

Since I went online with BF3 last year, I haven't really gone out and spent money on anything apart from food and cars and McDonalds.
So I know that I have definitely gotten my money's worth.

I digress....

I went on Op-Fire on Sunday night, and had my 🤬 handed to me by some guy called ZooLoo in a Havoc all night.
This guy was like one of the best Havoc pilots I've ever seen, who obviously knew his map, with all the bumps, poles, fuel tanx etc, avoided by inches as he flew about.
I got roadkilled by him while running across the desert ffs.
He was in the HAVOC! :irked:
So last night I go on some random EPIC battles server, and guess who is in my squad of randoms?
ZooLoo.
I switch the mic on and say "Err, can I be your gunner? I think I can fly quite well, but I got killed all night by you last night, so I know you can...."
He turns the Viper around at Caspian, and comes back to get me.
We spent a good few rounds together, completely dominating in the choppers, and I just sat there laughing my head off at Kharg as he missed ground furniture by the tiniest of margins and flew me right over people, getting roadkills.....
It was like the scariest, funniest, most satisfying rollercoaster I've ever been on 👍

Turns out, he's French, has no mic, and likes to draw smilies on the sandbags using his ruhpear tool when we're waiting for a chopper to spawn.

Following his departure, I had my best chopper round ever at Caspian, whereby I took the Viper at the very start (got used to this instant round start thingy I think) and only died from a stinger when they had 3 tickets left.
Spent the entire round with a random flying about and capping flags from my pilot's seat, destroying jets, tanx and the Havoc and zipping in between the trees and hiding whenever I got locked on to.
Don't remember the score, as I'm not that bothered, but I do know that's the first round I ever spent in 1 chopper, without having to bail at some point.

And yes Gunda, when everyone bails from a lobby, you can spend as long as you like in there, flying about or just killing each other; but you won't score any points until there are at least 4 on each side, I think.

Good for practice though......

:irked:👍
 
Quick, slightly stupid question, does it matter how I re-download Karkand? Do I have to delete my game data and re-do it or just go on to the PS store in to previous downloads and do it that way? (or can I do it through the BF store?)

We've had a rounder in 1 chopper before. Also, we seem to keep missing each other when BF3ing, need to sort that out...you on tonight?

Drag - Just download it again (this will take ages btw), no need to remove things, etc, it'll just write over it.
 
It took about 4 hours for me (it should have taken about 10 minutes on my connection), it may be better now, but just beware. Doing it over night sounds like a plan.

Well from my knowledge they could ban you for abusing the support or if they caught you lying. A similar thing happened to me in Need for Speed World, any problem that I saw in the game I would go to support, report it and in the end I would get a free code to get something from the game(but I abused a lot and they warned me that If I did it again my account would end up banned). Anyway moving from off-topic, I bought the expansion and so far the 15euros were worth it.

Fix for Heat Seekers and TV-missiles on PS3 and 360

"Along with today’s patch for Xbox 360, all three platform (PC, PS3, and Xbox 360) will be getting a server side fix for a couple of issues (only on consoles). The official Battlefield twitter account stated that the server update to take place between 8 am UTC (4 am EST/1 am PST) and 4 pm UTC (12pm EST/4am PST). During this time, “you may be kicked from your game, but should be able to rejoin.” Gustav Halling explained, “we are rolling out a server-fix for Heat seekers and TV-missiles bugs today.” He went on to explain how TV-missiles are being tweaked, “we are nerfing it down, it was not intentional to 1-hit kill all 100% healthy vehicles in the game.” However, he noted, “Small notice. The server side fixes today is consoles only. PC will follow shortly since they have their own update days.”

You can actually set your PS3 to turn off after x amount of hours. Quite useful.
