25 with my AEK. Love that gun.

Yeah I have over 2000 AEK kills to, I have 19 guns so far over 1000 kills aswell. PKP is next, And then the G53. My first aim was to get all weapons over 5 SS's. Now on to 10, Then I'll go onto 15, 20 Etc. So much better than using one popular weapon. :)
 
No gatrs but i am. I had atleast 5 medals last night. Had some real good rounds as well. No 2xp for me.
 
Anyone else finding the connection to EA bad today? My router strength to PS3 is 90-100% and I’m playing on 5 bar European servers. :confused:
 
Arghhhhh every SQDM match I get put in the worst team. I need to win them.


And kids are soo annoying. One said today in a very excited voice. "I just set the tank on fire!"

Actually it was my javelin but I let them have their moment and didn't say anything.
 
Nothing worse than getting MVP and still losing by 300 tickets. :banghead:

I HATE RANDOMS!

This is why (for a long time now) I exclusively play in squads with friends. If I don't have a squad to run with, I play a different game.

Were not all bad, what i do find odd is that I'm only level 9 (silver eagle thingy) and theres people levels 60 and up and i'm always out performing them.

The colonel ranking is just a indication of how long someone has played the game, Not their skill.

I did wonder, considering the lack of skill i see in teams, if thats a constant i don't think i could play a game that badly for that long.

Yeh the rank is based on how much XP they have. So it is a good show of how many objectives and kills they can get in a year and a half.
 
So, those with Aftermath, do you use the Xbow? Which classes do you use it with? Personally I now always carry the scoped Xbow as Assault, but I don't use it with any other class because I think Assaults are the only players who can use the Xbow without penalising their team because they can still play the medic role using the defibs. In fact even before the Xbow was around I thought Assaults were better off without medkits anyway because people very rarely want to sit still to heal, but if they're dead you can zap them and they'll get back up with full health, so why not just do that and carry extra weapons?

Do any of you use the Xbow with the Recon class, and if so, how do you do it? I'm struggling to think of a loadout that isn't just completely compromised or redundant.
 
I use the XBOW on every class, almost every game since I unlocked it. And yes, I do use it during the game; it's not just for show.
 
I use the XBOW with assault ususally and depending on the map Engineer as I seem the like the SCAR-H but if there are planes/tanks I will take the Stinger or Javelin.
Support yes as well.
Recon it can be useful as it is totally silent. Even with the suppressor you can still here if someone is near you.
With all classes I use the scoped version with the balanced bolt most of the time.


Oh and am I the only one who seems to be able to run and gun with the M249 SAW?

I must look 🤬 being only level 9 then, it probably seems like all i do is here is moan about poor teams but i just had an amazing game on metro (CQ) but i had to use my go to class to win it, we were losing 550 to 660 when i joined and we won with 358. I was happy to win but I'm fed up of having to use a specific class just to get the win, i want to be able to get a decent result whilst running about with a nooby silenced LMG or an M1014. Im sure i'm not the only one feeling like this?

I know what you mean, If I used the standard MP7, P90, AEK etc I would make it way easier for myself and have way better stats. I just find it way more fun using all the weapons and working out how to utilize them best.

Long range rifle, trusty side arm, XBOW RDS for 1 shot close kills. The other bolts to spot and disable helicopters.
 
Had a round where everything just seems to fall in line perfectly for you :D: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/battlereport/show/74427846/4/354428012/

Was running around picking up tons of kits, its actually very enjoyable and interesting what you pick up sometimes.

About the XBOW, I imagine a good setup for it would be the scoped version for the assault kit and pick off long range targets with the balanced bolt although I haven't tried it since I was running around with the XBOW non-scoped getting the mastery dog tag for it.

That rambo assignment too :yuck:. What was DICE thinking? Us poor console players have to wipe out a third of the enemy team in a split second. :(
 
I have one of those multi kills.
I got it on conquest domination using my fantastic MK3A1 with frag rounds.
Of course using the jackhammer I was not very successful, but I happened to stumble upon four enemies.
Normally using frag rounds would mean that I could perhaps kill one or two enemies before someone turned around and killed me.

Luckily there was some C4 on the ground and the explosion was immense. Enemy C4 too. 👍

Yeah i'm just a douchy gamer when I'm not taking a game seriously:lol:

How come your best weapon was the M416 with 7 kills when in total you got 28 and had no vehicle score?:crazy:

I'm guessing... 7 with the M416, 6 with his handgun, 6 with grenades, 6 with the knife and 3 with defibs. A true renaissance man!

If he did this I'm maybe not a douchy gamer after all:lol:

Just thought, maybe he brought down many many buildings on people.
 
Best loadout for crossbow?

I would go with recon, M5K + kobra + laser + extended mags, crossbow + kobra + appropriate bolt for given situation , REX sidearm for finishing opponents if you run out of ammo.

Of course you would be more helpful to your teammates if you used the most important piece of equipment in recon's arsenal. Tugs.
 
Started using the xbow today (havnt liked it up until now).

Just threw it on to get the William Tell assignment done, I thought it would take me a couple of rounds but i was surprised to do it in one. :)

Got my first XBOW collateral aswell.

I think i'll use it a lot more often now, Good fun.

It was in Operation 9025 I think and I was kit switching a lot :dopey:. Fluked into finding a M416 with quite a few bullets in.

But wouldn't you be far more useful to your team if you were an assault with the exact same loadout simply because the defibs are more useful than the spawn beacon? Not to mention that you get ten times as many points every time it gets used. Are we talking Rush or CQ?

Considering everyone and their mother is running assault class, especially during 2XP weekends, you don't really need more defibs. But if you're losing your game, say 3 flags to 1 or running low on tickets in rush, it is crucial to place spawn beacon near the enemy flag furthest from current action (for example the best way to brake spawn camp from US side on metro/bazaar/etc is to go straight to A/C, don't cap flag straight away instead plant spawn beacon where it won't be heard easily then proceed to cap the flag and wait for the rest of your squad to spawn, after that just flank or backrage your opponents).
