I would agree except bar attack helicopters you can now repair faster than they can be shot down (also true of tanks if you only have 1 person firing at it) however on Kharg Island Rush last night I saw someone total up 10,000 points pre-award with the Viper, I couldn't even get a lock from spawn (second base) as he flew backwards behind the buildings then circled over defenders spawn and destroyed everything. His first death came from me with the main cannon of the T90, the combination of flares and hiding behind the building (and stealth?) made lock on weapons useless and 50 cals weren't enough. That being said when it came to the final base with the large warehouses protecting us, the enemy team had no chance but they breezed the rest with that chopper. I'd call them fair if they either repair themself slower and engineers could only repair if landed, they're only really troublesome in Rush where they can hover over your spawn though.

Everything would be cool in that round except the fact that those guys where just chopper-whores (they play Kharg Island attack exclusively and are top 20 worldwide in Viper) to the extreme. On that last base I had to resort to the cheapest tactics possible that I really hate using, killing them first (after I got to spawn in the plane , which btw is not easy after the patch), then went after their friend in A10, after that I was just spawn camping their A10 and Viper getting around 5 kills (air tea-bagging included). Last minutes of the round was me going circles around their air carrier vs their stingers/AA gun. I was like "U mad bro?!". Good times. :)

No, but if you have the Limited Edition you get it for free instead of paying $15.

Ah that's good news.

Also not to fond of guided missiles for jets but don't hate em either. It's just difficult to fly the plane with the way the camera is. There pretty good in the sense that they lock on to vehicles but I'll stuck to rocket pods.
 
It did include the dlc. If you go to character customize from the main menu you can view all the DLC weapons. It might not have been the whole thing but it was at least part of it. They did something similar with the vietnam expansion for BC2. When I bought that it was less than a 1mb download because I had already installed it with an update. You'll probably still have to download something but you essentially already have it pre-loaded and ready to go I think.
 
Just went 25-1 on Metro with an M40 ACOG and .44 Magnum.

I have enough score for the G3 and SG553 somehow after the update? Now I can't get the trophy for getting them all.

It's related to Karkand IIRC, to unlock the various weapons you have to complete some fairly basic (from the ones I've seen anyway) assignments which may require you to get X amount of LMG kills or similar.
 
I'll be playing again today. I'll play some rush if you guys prefer that. Hopefully we can all join and be on the same team let alone the same squad.

Hey I would've stuck around past night but I was already playing for a few hours so I just got off. Sorry about taking your tags :P. They didn't even count because my game froze up a minute later.

Are you still on BF3?
 
Was playing on my brothers account. Ended up on the opposite team as Midship. My team blew rock hard dicks.
 
I hate to admit it, but this game is nearing last chance saloon with me.

Between me apparently sucking at it and the completely unbalanced fights I find myself in (if I get off'ed by a P2000 totting Level3x guy again, I may just snap my disk in two) I am really not getting much enjoyment out of it.

If the DLC doesn't somehow magically rebalance it for me, I'm trading it.

What mode are you playing that it's unbalanced? I find Conquest a lot more balanced than Rush. TDM is also pretty balanced.

I think he means gun fights being unbalanced. I have also experienced some unbalance, M416 and G36C's putting me down in literally one bullet. But I just put it down to net code and not worry about it really.

If you get mad enough at a game that you feel the need to crack it in half, you should probably take a break. I used to get really annoyed by games that I felt were unfair. But now I just kind of blame it on other things.
 
The M249 is the most OP gun in the game. You want to complain about something complain about that.

There were lots of decent games tonight. I just finally called it quits for the night. Talk about a marathon session! It was all pretty one sided in our favor until the last few games which we still won a few.

When was this?
 
unbalanced is the net/server.

I have had this problem too and one match I would have to put a clip in someone and I would killed with 4 bullets. Other matches it is equal.

and also when it comes down to it, it is skill and practice. If I have a pistol I can kill the guy with the F2000 if I start shooting him before he shoots me....most of the time

I don't find it that bad. It's got a ton of recoil and twice tonight I had a guy fire at me close range with one and I have enough time to turn and drop him with my Scar

I play rush mostly. I've played about 15 hours now and had matched attacking and defending teams maybe 5 or 6 times. Usually its heaps of 25+ level guys against 4,5 and 6 level guys with a level 40 guy thrown in. Today it was 6 vs 10 for two rounds at Firestorm. When I tried to switch, it told me it would unbalance the server!

Fair enough, and I accept I am not the best with accuracy in close combat, but I've lost count the number of time I've unloaded half an AK clip into someone 10 yards away and then they kill me with a F2000 or A-91 anyway.
