Are there still just 50 levels like BF2 had? Thats insane to be that far in less than a week.

I believe it's higher because I was looking at twitter and this guy posted his stats and he was level 54!
 
I'll probably never get there. I'll be upset if I find out all the weapons I'm looking forward to are super high ranked.

sorry for the double post

I read in GAMEINFORMER, that there are 100 levels but than you still "RANK UP" another 50 levels with stars. so total there are 150 levels

That'll keep me busy for a couple of years. Wow.
 
And I read (I think on Battlelog) that the ranking up is still to be tweaked which likely means it'll take longer!

Personally I fine that pretty cool because it gives real meaning to the difference between a level 20 guy and a level 75 guy when we get down the road.

Also I have a feeling those high level guys have more than 1 person playing on that ID. I had a friend be one of the first few thousand guys to reach 10 prestige max level in Cod4 but he has 3 brothers who all worked part time which meant basically somebody playing 20 hours a day...
 
i saw two high level guys last night..lvl50 and 48..they must have nolife playing beta lol!
 
I'm guessing the M39 is the M14 EMR and not the Russian/Finnish bolt-action rifle?

Also, anyone know if the M240B is in? I'm sure I saw it on the weapons list, but other than that I can't find trace of it. It should be as the Pecheneg is in!

Yes I believe so. I'd love to work towards unlocking it but this inferior battlelog is not working with me. :(
 
Haha, I noticed in my last round that you can switch to semi-auto also on the PS3 with d-pad down. Makes shooting at long and mid range so much more precise and satisfying.

Come to think of it, why they didn't include some sort of control guide?
 
@chris
Have your filter set to Euro? I see tons. Also, are you on PC? I'm on PC

Isn't it all layed out for you in the button mapping options?
 
Oh damn, forgot about that. Well there's not much besides those two things anyway [turning the light off and select-fire]
 
Wow I just played about 6 rounds or more, been playing for about 4hrs. Won all of them and had awesome rounds. I know it might sound cheap but I love recon. I only started recon is because I wanted to unlock the last weapon that looks similar to an M14 EBR but I love the MK11 I get so many kills and I feel like an effective weapon. I can effectively pick off disarmers or advancing attackers. Jumped from rank 6 to rank 11 (and a half). :D Now... sleep.

People are saying that some of those hacked servers are rank up servers. One person said they went in one at level 18 or something and came out at level 40. He said he had something like an 18000 points a minute average.
 
Be careful when thinking about joining those servers. It's just not worth it especially with EA's draconian bannage system, it's worse than Steam's VAC ban.
 
During beta phase I don't think there is much to worry about. All the stats will be reset afterwards anyway.
 
You can switch from full-automatic fire (hold the trigger and you empty the clip) to semi-automatic (you have to tap the trigger like with a normal Pistol). This way you have a lot less recoil, which not only makes the shooting more precise (less "spraying"), you also see more while aiming and save tons of ammunition.

EDIT:
Works in real-life too. :lol:


Ah makes sense thankyou. I shoot in bursts anyway.

Does anyone know how to "spot" on PS3 and how it works. Thankyou.
 
Noticed that a guy called "Perfecticus" has over 5.3 MILLION KILLS

Us non-cheaters unlock maybe one thing every once in a while, this guy unlocked 18 items once :) Cheating like hell,

Yes guys, as other people have mentioned, please give the early sniper rifles a try without the scops on Metro, especially in the subway, ...it's just rapetastic.

I was playing the hell out of Caspian Sea on Thursday, then as soon as I finally get my old joystick up and running to get into my flying groove, they take all the Caspian servers off!

Trust me guys, reserve all judgement till you've played true Battlefield in conquest mode with 64 players, it's back to the old glory days for me, can't get enough, it's just awesome.

The tanks are amazing fun too, although I only got a bit of flight time. Gunning in the chopper seems really nerfed since you have to "reload" after only like 20 rounds. I think the missile's a vehicle upgrade. I think I got a jet upgrade but I wasn't sure what it did since, like I said, when I went back to try and play more they announced that the passwords wouldn't be given out anymore.

Yes I'm on the PC, this was only for the PC beta. I briefly tried the PS3 beta and thought it was decent but I couldn't get through my paces like I would've wanted. Everything happens a lot slower it seems. On the PC the park section would go by in a flash then there always seems to be a long stalemate in the subway when on the PS3 I noticed attackers having a lot more trouble. Played it on the PS3 all morning. Can't believe they pulled off the graphics like that on the consoles. I have everything maxed on my rig and really the only difference I noticed on the PS3 is the lack of post-process, everything else was pretty much just as good.

Also, you gotta love those mobile spawn points that you can dish out as recon. It's such an amazing tactical addition. I didn't even realize what the big radio thing did for a while before I spawned on one.

Use it wisely! Can't wait for the game! this makes the next couple of weeks seem even longer I NEED MORE MAPS xDDDDD

I was using the MK11 and SV98 without the scopes, they're pretty good, the MK11 sort of feels like a faster shooting M14 from BC2

And the Mobile Spawn Points are pretty cool, they work really good, I put one down near the MCOM as attackers and my squad kept spawning on it in the train cabin, and I kept killing a guy that kept spawning on one, like COD Tactical Insertions :) It might of been 2 or 3 guys though :p I got 2 kills and got killed reloading
 
my 🤬 m8 lied to me, you get the EoD Bot at 32000xp on the engineer class. Funny to use as well

Someone else came across with this server on PC?



40vs40, I search it but I haven't found it yet, anyone else did find it or came across with it?

Also like 3 times more xp to be won.

I think first 2 recon class semi-auto rifles (M11 & SVD) are bit overpowered. 2 shot kills with no reload? You can swipe entire squads with 1 mag within 45 seconds. At least with SV98 there is reload after every shot that gives you some time to hide behind cover.

Oh and I unlocked Mortar in support class. I was very interested to see how it works,but unfortunately it is unavailable in Beta.

Last thing. If you see someone with level over 35, there is high chance he'll be camping under the map at first base A bomb site. Annoying, because you also have to go under the map to kill him.
 
overpowered? :) We are talking about guns capable of putting rounds right through you, imo they are nerfed every single one of them.

I want more realistic "life" then what we have now.
