hahahahhahahahahhahahhahhahaha



and I re-read your post GTACE, I never seem to have a problem at close range with a lot of people. Granted I'm still going to get killed but I don't see it being a problem
 
Wardez that's a great picture. It's exactly true.

I love the guys that go sit on that island. So unbelievable easy to see and shoot I really wonder why people go out there.
 
So i downloaded this earlier this evening. First impressions, I know its a beta but the graphics (especially the lighting and textures) don't look that great and are a bit glitchy in places. FPS on my computer is quite low, and the crazy lighting effects (torch on weapon) makes it a little slow, though perfectly playable, very annoying and impedes my performance.

The game didnt have any vehicles so felt a lot more like COD to me, especially with the bigger disadvantage from lack of gear at the start, In Bad Company 2 the base gear was pretty strong, not so much in the BF3 beta, though certaintly playable and decent. I'm not great at fps shooters but I managed some lucky kills in my first game and came out 11/10 and 2nd on my team. Many players were accusing a certain player on the opposite team of cheating/hacking.

To be honest its hard for me to make out anything much from the demo (which is what it really is to be honest), for all I can see it is nothing more than a generic evolution of the last game in its current beta form, the graphics look rough and performance is weak.


I'l probably wait until I upgrade my graphics card before I buy the game, but I will buy it.
 
:lol:

I'm the sort of guy who forgets to crouch.


Apart from that, is going to get ugly for the people who doesn't have good ping. I was playing on PC lately and due to my location all servers have 200-300 ping, the lag is tremendous for servers after 280 and I can play properly(or fair) under 260.

I know is like that for all games, I just hope that the public servers(if there are) and the dedicated servers are reachable before 200 ping, thus far is the lag that takes me out of it and is just down to my damn location.
 
I've picked off people at "idiots with sniper rifles" from "people who think they can snipe" multiple times.

Does that mean I can snipe? :dopey:

HAHAHA I was sitting behind "bush people" and I shot a rocket at a sniper at "people who think they can snipe". I aimed high and I killed him with one rocket hahahahahhah

edit: the sniper was actually behind "people who think they can snipe" on the ramp
 
Well I just unlocked the SKS. It's a pretty nice gun, after using the MK11 and SV98 i'm not used to pumping more than 2 rounds into someone before they die. I'm not far from unlocking the UMP45.
 
What's the..... Flom? I can't remember what it's called, it takes 27000 points to unlock for the recon kit
 
I made it to level 15 tonight. Next two unlocks are SKS at 18000 and UMP45 at whenever. I'm pretty close to getting the 416 but I never use the assault class.

I've got two PP2000 classes but for some reason the game doesn't let you have different attachments on the same gun. I wanted to have an extended mags kit and a silenced kit but whenever you set one kit it automatically changes the other one.

The tunnels are by far the worst part of this map. The team defending always goes prone on the tracks where you can't see them and they proceed to farm kills. No one ever seems to figure it out either.

The soflam isn't in the beta but its a laser range finder for dropping guided bomb/missile/whatever. Mostly for taking out armor I'd think. There was a similar gadget in BF2 modern combat that would lock on to tanks/choppers and automatically call in a missile on your target.

:scared: You're catching up to me, must play more!
 
I played for about 4 or 5 hours tonight. I've gotta get up and go to work in the morning so I doubt I'll be playing that much through the week. :grumpy:

I hear you there, during the week I'm lucky to get an hour in before I need to go t o sleep again.
 
The UMP seems way over powered. I ran into it a lot tonight and the thing is a pain in the ass. I got so fed up with dying to it I picked one up. The guy had put the thermal scope on it! I can't believe people are so high ranked already. I was playing against at least one person that was 40+.
 
The thermal was nice initially, I got it on the MK11. But it's not consistent and sometimes it doesn't pick up the body temp all the time.
 
Blackbird.

Like with smoke, steam, fog/ or haze.... Ya that's why I stopped using it, also sometimes I'm shooting dead bodies that I thought were alive prone people
 
I did like the color pattern of it. I didn't actually use it, I figured it would be pointless on an SMG but I could see using it on a rifle on a darker map. You don't see to really give up very much definition.
 
I found it especially useful on taking out enemies that are trying to arm/disarm MCOMs. Lots of time it's hard to tell where they are sometimes they blend in, or if they're trying to hide behind it I can't see if a little bit of them is sticking out. With thermal scope that makes it alot easier.

Highest I've seen so far is 33. I just reached rank 12 and I think I'll soon be done with the Beta. I've enjoyed it a lot so far and I'm pretty sure I'll purchase the game so I don't want to go unlocking a ton of stuff before the game comes out. Still want things to feel fresh.


On another note, I got a double kill with one shot from the SV98. :sly:
 
Plant some C4's around them M-COMs... wait for it...... wait for it.......... GREAT SUCCESS! High Five! :dopey:
 
Had a 16 kill streak just now. Last mcom defending as an engineer. I had killed a US engineer and took his rocket launcher (whatever it's called) and a support guy spawned on me and gave me ammo.

I was on the 3rd floor of a building looking at the last MCOM B. I knifed two guys to get up there and the wall had been blown out. I got 10 of the kills just blasting would be planters at the MCOM and the other ones were the guys I killed and a coupe others I picked off with my stolen M4 carbine. :)
 
just a little montage a buddy of mine made :)



It looked like he was playing with blind people.
Weird gameplan some have (not your friend, the guys he killed)
Just kept running towards him instead of hiding behind the wall, throw a grenade or just come out with full auto spraying bullets everywhere.

Probably CoD fans.... :p

Anyway... No love for the engineer kit?? :) I'm totally hooked on that class... Love the M4 carbine/AK-74u and the missile launcher is a laugh when you get through the tunnels and end up upstairs just before the last mcom stations... You can rack up kills as a defender because everyone bunches up around the top of the staircases as they come upstairs... :lol: I'm loving the beta though... The gameplay is just fantastic imo despite the few bugs here and there and the color flashes. Can't wait to receive the full copy in a couple of weeks. 👍

It looked like he was lagging a lot. So most of the time he shot the opponent before the opponent could see him.
 
^^^Best .Ever (image gone for not being nice)

so true about everything. I love the victory crawl. I hate dumb island
