Battlefield 3

I think it just says you can get on the website on portable devices. Not an app

How I didn't think of that, I do no know. Let me give it a try

edit - just tryed it on both my iPod Touch 2G and Sony Xperia with Android. It loads. but it's not a mobile optimization or anything. So it's not really that usefull IMO.

5. Find a pad sensitivity that suits your style (disregard anyone who says that to be good you need max sensitivity, BSx1000 , I play on "6 clicks from the minimum" and it feels great on battlefield)

Same here. I run with very low sens, as i did in CS while many had sense that was just uncontrollable.

there are good and bad things with low/high sens, low means you are at a disadvantage in very close combat, when for example turning around fast. But on the other hand it allows you to have a more relaxed aim at mid- to longer distances.

I don't understand how easily this guy is killing people. I tried for a good 10 minutes straight and never got a hit marker even..

I was thinking this whilst watching that video, I've flown into people before on the xbox version and it didn't kill them so what gives?

They said they were making mobile apps... Where they are I have no idea. There is a fan made android one that is constantly updated, it's not bad for how long it's been out.

Thanks for typing that up. This one is extremely true for me:

2. Always know where you're going while being on the move aka try not to get infected with "headless chicken syndrome".

On many occasions I spawn on a team mate as he is killed and I am dropped in a random location of an unfamiliar map with no support wondering what to do. The temptation is to try run around like superman, but that = fail.

One thing I have been doing to unlock attachments for guns is to play Conquest on Operation Metro. I have been playing 32 player games of that and have unlocked quite a few attachments for multiple weapons. The small map, medium amount of players, and limited choke points give ample opportunities for kills.

You been watching me play MR?
I tried joining you whilst you were playing today but I couldn't get in.

Cheers Shaun.

So today, I learned not to deactivate my origin account the hard way. I tried signing in to my deactivated account which happens to be the good one. So that didn't work obviously,so I tried changing my email on the on my original ea account to my good one, and learned that when you deactivate an account, it "is still in use" and I got the run around with EA customer support for an hour before I was told to call a number because the support techs can't reactivate deactivated accounts
DO NOT DEACTIVATE YOUR ORIGIN/ BATTLELOG ACCOUNTS! you will not be able to create a new one with the same email

I did this just so I could get battlelog, it turns out, I now have battlefeed on my ps3 but I can't access it via computer... Oh well

Why where you trying to deactivate your account anyway?

I thought the same thing when I read that.

*edit*

Stats on 360 as of tonight.

Score Per Minute - 321
KDR - 1.163
W/L Percentage - 0.72 Getting better but still down

The F2000 is pretty awesome. High rate of fire with very manageable recoil is a great combination. The only downside I can find is the weapon burns though ammunition very quickly.

 

[Cale]

The G3 is alot of fun. Powerful up close and it someone is far away, put it on semi-auto and fire 3 shots.

 

[Brett]

I also like the G3A3. I have not used the weapon in a few days though. I was getting a Service Star for the M416 and AEK-971 instead. I was also working towards getting a Service Star for the M16A3 (or M16A4 if Russian) before unlocking the F2000.

What the heck does it mean when you just die randomly and get told 'Bad Luck'. Happened 5 times to me yesterday. Once I ran into and empty room in Grand Bazaar and the other 4 times I was also nowhere near combat in Firestorm.

 

[Blackbird.]

I don't think anything is more frustrating than when you hold an enemy off one mcom for the majority.... wait 100% of their tickets and than they are able to arm it and hold everyone off while at 0 tickets.

If you're hit my debris or explosions etc.

So, the matchmaking system is not working very well for me. When I hit quick match 9 times out of ten it places me in an empty server. While if I pick a server from list 9 times out of 10 it's the slot of a losing team and so far that's been the case.

 

[hampus_dh]

With a kill/death ratio of 0.965, not too bad,.

I´m starting to get better now it seems

From 0.965 to 1.033, also got my first service star for the AK-74M, my favorite weapon out of all.

Love the recoil, the power and the looks of it, just unlocked the night vision scope aswell but never got a chance to try it since it was US weapons the round after.

Planning on unlocking everything i can with it then move on to the next weapon.
8 attachments left lol. Incredible how many you can unlock really.

Yep lately my win/loss ratio has been taking a dive. I went from over 1 to 0.85. Just looking at the recent games I lost 9 games straight.

If my team sucks I look if I can switch teams.

I apparently impaled myself once going over a broken of wall with the metal rods sticking out the top of it.

 

[Brett]

I unlocked Flares for Jets finally. I managed one kill and a few assists through a few games. I am no longer completely terrible at flying a jet. The recent jet video posted helped me out on how to fly a jet.

I also had a nice little run in a Mi-28 Havoc as a pilot. My passenger even complimented my flying. Repeating the second Co-op mission many times has paid off a little.

Lastly, I also managed my first MVP game!

I was sprinting, slid to prone, hit a wall and died.

I had the opposite the other day, landed in a team where everyone was using teamwork and we won ten straight I think it was.
Amazing how when playing the game how it should be played you can have success.

Cheers Shaun

Bad luck. I don't remember the map, but the one that's the mine with the tunnel in the middle, my friend and I tried to get on top of the mountain. You can't. The few times I play, there's always people who just sit back and drop in mortars.

 

[Crispy]

FInally got enough kills with the Jet to unlock IR Flares! This way I can use my Ace Combat skills to own the skies! Dodging Heatseakers without Flares is tough.

Was on Operation Firestorm last night, Rush, with Frogtail jet. I was being tailed by the enemy A10 Thunderbolt, when I had the balls to try and fly in between the two tall smokestacks to get away from the enemy. The plan was to fly in between, and either lost the enemy because he tried to go around, or lose him because he crashed. I go for the move, and just barely make it. The enemy then tries to follow, realizes he can't make it, bails as his plane blows. The guy pulled his parachute to fast, which meant when I swooped back around, I could gun him out of the air.

Another great moment. Seine Crossing, Rush, holding down the bridge at A, just my squad. The whole bridge gets torn apart, none of us have died yet. Bullets going everywhere. Then they rush us. We all go down in a final last stand, except for my friend, who set a C4 charge on the MCOM. WHen five of them piled up, he blew them, and him, up. Heroic move for the win!

@ crispy after flares, getting heat seekers and stealth is no prob even belt speed is easy but proximity scan takes 1500 points, and it takes a little longer I'm at 1443 of 1500 points, lol so close

Why where you trying to deactivate your account anyway?

I tried using it for the beta but it didn't work for me so I deactivated it

Exactly

It just means either suicide or it was nobody's fault, but a victim of circumstance

 

[OLDSKOOLACURA]

I started getting into the habit of yelling "this is sparta!!" before a match lol

I love playing theme music during battlefield matches. Back in Bad Company 2 my friend and I would flank by swimming in water, cue James bond theme.

When we need to make a charge, song played at sports events with "charge" in it.

Lol, good times
