Does anyone know where to get ammo in Scavenger? I know of one ammo crate in the Mall on one of the maps. But apart from that I don't know where any are :confused:
 
Someone with previous problems of input-lag please say what you think of that issue now. Solved or still there?
 
For me? Definitely improved. I had to get used to turning so quickly because I became accustomed to the lag :lol:. I'll have to try out the TV missile to make sure though.

I never complained about experiencing it, though looking back & comparing to youtube videos, my controls were also slugish.
Response time has vastly improved, feels almost like an extension of my thumb, so I'd say it's pretty fixed.

Yeasterday I load a match of TDM on Seine, run around & get kills with bolt, get hit. Pressing X to spawn... ...PS3 freezes! :lol:
DICE be damned!
 
I haven't been playing that long so I can't say I've noticed a difference in input response. I was getting audio dropouts from time to time but haven't had any since the update. 👍
 
I've see a comparison video of the input lag before and after the patch, it feels like the xbox version now he said and that's good news

Re-install may work for that problem. Maybe someone have a better solution but thats my guess.

I got it to download but it’s still horribly slow. I turned off the connection to local media servers. (Suggested on Battlelog)
 
Is the patch seriously 2GB big?

Good lord... This is going to take forever on my miserable 5MB connection...
 
Its so nice to have the audio working again, It took you to long but thank you DICE:tup
 
Enemies don't drop weapons (or friendlies, for that matter) when you kill them in Scavenger.
I'm talking about Rush and CQ, btw - there aren't any ammo or med packs in Scavenger.

FUUUUUUUU I hate Assaults who don't drop medipaks. So annoying :irked:

:lol: we should play some time, i get sooo many points when i play as assault because i just run around dishing them out, reviving people and seem to be the only one doing so.

Someone above mentioned sound being fixed? What was that about?
 
Just started scavenger lastnight and i love it sofar but i think 1 addition id like to see is more variety with the gun because every gun has the same attachments so varieing attachments would be more of challenge .
I almost have that dog tag for for an hour on each map plus the 200 pickups just need a few minutes at Talah most likely . quite a long day :D
 
So far I've found an "Ammo Pack" in Markaz Monolith and Azadi Palace. It's inside of the Mall (B Flag) for Markaz. And I've forgotten where it is in Azadi :p
EDIT: This is for Scavenger, mind you.
 
First impressions:

The crossbow is awesome.
The maps are awesome.
Had a really awesome game of rush on epicenter. Probably the most fun I've had while defending on a rush map so far. Though part of that is probably because the enemies don't know the map yet and I just ran around shooting people with the SV98, crossbow and MP443. Their map awareness wasn't excellent. :lol:
 
So is the crossbow, primary weapon, secondary weapon or like a gadget (replacing med pack, smaw yms)?

Gadget slot 1, So it replaces your Meds, RPG, C4 Etc.

This latest patch and AM DLC are brilliant. Best BF experience I've had since the game released.
 
I've been trying to download this patch for 90 minutes. :grumpy: On my third attempt, it got to 87% and I got an error.

Still couldn't download the patch after my fifth/sixth try. Really starting to piss me off.

I played a round of rush on 1 of the new maps... Was totally ruined by people on top of roofs.. But the scavenger mode was fun!
 
I've had some great fun playing both scavenger and rush. Even with upwards of 5 100-star colonels on the other team, I've won about 90% of my games on the new maps (which I think are great btw).

And I think the crossbow is done just right. Damage wise I like how it retains a high amount, but sub-kill level after you get out of CQB. I was actually in a party with a guy who says that he hunts elk a lot, and that in his opinion the trajectory drop in the flight of the (standard) bolt is spot on.
 
Scavenger is quite fun. I am loving actually having to trust a pistol half the time when you have not got a main weapon.
 
There are a set amount of weapon spawns in each map, and each spawn has one level attributed to it. So if you pick up a Crossbow (level 2), you'll know that other Level 2 guns will spawn there as well (i.e. a sniper or a shotgun). Level 3 locations spawn Carbines, ARs and LMGs and the Level 1s spawn PDWs.

tl:dr A LVL1 gun stays a LVL1 location.
