I'm not trolling. I like and hate the fact that I now know I'm not a good soldier. I think I had the "cocky cod" attitude. Cured now. Lol. Can't wait to be better.

I had that starting bc2 then a cocky bc2 attitude entering bf3, whole new ball game here, you'll get good when your k/d is too low and too far in to make any difference when you do get good

Please add me.

Request sent, good luck with battlelog signup, that's where I ran into trouble. :banghead:

On that note if anyone wants to add me please do so on my "gundalini" account.
I may not be the best at BF3 but I pretty much play as a team member and the objective all the time.

I am so sick of Mortar guys setting up shop in the "out of bounds" portion of maps

This is about the only time I may go off my team player mode and take it personal. Playing conquest at Tehran highway the other night a mortar guy took me out from his "safe haven" within the map. I'm not sure if he thought he was in an area he thought the enemy couldn't get to, it was near the Russian deployment. He was that immersed in his mortar firing that I managed to "sneak up" behind him in a tank. :dunce: Needless to say it didn't end well for him.

Cheers Shaun.

So I gave the multiplayer a chance today since I bought the game.
Had no Idea what to do. 2 kills 14 deaths.
I never had this much fun dying. Great game.

Haha my first Battlefield game was something very similar.

I'm 30 or so LMG kills from the second LMG. Then only the second smg and that scarred veteran gun left.
 
The way I understand it from what I was told by "Manish, your chat representative from EA sports-It's in the game!" is:

You need an EA account online, that will attach itself to one of your PSN ID's or an Xbox one, or both, and a wii ID, and you can have multiple ID's attached to your one EA account.

To ensure no conflicts ever, it is better to have a new PSN ID when you start playing an EA game (it's in the game) and any EA game (it's in the game) you play after that will link the EA account (it's in the game) to your EA game (it's in the game) automatically.

For example, I have a friend who plays Tiger Woods, and he had no problem just getting a used copy of BF3, buying the online code at the PS Store, inpuuting and playing online, since his PSN ID was already linked to his EA account (it's in the game).

Myself I had to start fresh, because the ID that I had linked to EA was another one, which I didn't want to use, but by the time I had managed to get the original EA account (it's in the game) deleted and made a fresh one, the linx didn't work. IT DIDN'T LIKE MY EMAIL AS IT HAD SEEN IT BEFORE on my old account, which I had deleted. This necessitated a whole new ID, account, email etc....

So you will need a valid email account, so EA (sports- it's in the game) can send you bunf about their 🤬 , an ID that can be successfully linked to your EA account, that hasn't been unsuccessfully attempted to be linked to your EA account before (they're in the game), and an EA account that is all fresh and shiny, or has been being used with EA games for ages (they're in the game too), and has never even given you a problem.

Don't ask me why Battlelog is a problem, as I am not so stupid as to try and sign up for that.
Not suggesting that you lot are stupid, just know that if I try to do it, I'll get something wrong, and I am not going through another day of fixing EA shizzle.... -it's in the game.....

In short, I had a new email, with new password, a new EA account, with password, and a new PSN ID, with password and all the other 🤬 that has to go into your PS3 to get a new ID, before I could even download, install and successfully play BF3.

So my dream of simply being able to use the friends list I already had, went out of the window with EA's (sports- it's in the game) idea of how you should be simultaneously connected to three things when you play, took effect.
If you think I am adding a fourth dimension.........

^^^ SSSSooOOoooO VEXD... How you liking the game so far?? :p
 
Those are the number of tickets (lives) each team has... The more flags you control the faster the tickets of the other team will decrease. Works the other way around too... And kills also count towards the decrease in tickets if Im not mistaken.
 
Do any of you guys play on hardcore? I personally find it frustrating on core with the health regen and stuff.. Find HC more fun too, and it makes some weapons much easier to use (once I get my recon 1st star I'm going for 500 .44 magnum dog tag 👍)

I play where ever my friends are playing :-). Hardcore or no Hardcore
 
^ I honestly havent played Hardcore in BF3 yet... Tried it out in BFBC and BFBC2, but it wasn't really my cup of tea. Although I think in BF3 there is a mini map in hardcore, right? That wasn't the case in both Bad Company games if I'm not mistaken.

Tried the Underslung Rail on the AK-74M and had no problem attaching the M320 to it.

EDIT: Worked like a charm on the AEK-971 also.

Try it on the G3A3. That's what I was attempting to do.

Does anybody else suffer from there soldier creeping forward when your not touching the controller?

That'll be a worn controller. Suffered the same fate with my old six axis. Bought a new DS3, problem solved.

Cheers Shaun.

I don't belive you can put one on that gun? Maybe I'm wrong but isn't that an all class gun or am I thinking of something else?

I believe I watched a video that stated the G3A3 cannot be used with an underbarrel M320. I will see if I can find the video again.

EDIT: At about the 2:40 mark, it is mentioned that the G3A3 cannot be used with underbarrel M320.

same thing happens to mine, seems every xbox 360 controller I use has this problem. Never had the problem with ps3 controller

I hate to but I'm going to have to buy a new controller, which stinks because I put ps3 joysticks on my xbox controller (I like the feel)

Than why put the option there? Oh well thanks.
 
The Famas doesn't accept underbarrels either. Only guns that have an under rail attachment can use it. I used the HK416 to get that challenge done.

That's exactly my point. The G3 does have a under slung rail attachment. Therefore, why have the option it its not functional.
 
Did anybody even read what I said? You don't need to put the M320 on a gun to get that assignment! I have it and I didn't put it on a single gun.

Same here 👍 Only ever used the underslung rail when I didn't have the foregrips for anything...
I've only really used the M320 for that challenge and that's it..
 
Maybe I did it wrong but when I added the M320 to my famas I had to put it away to pull out the launcher. I might have setup the class wrong but I don't think an under rail was an option.

Same that's how I found out, was using the AN94 which is an amazing gun. Good at long range because of burst but it can fire quickly even with burst up close.

EXACTLY MY PROBLEM, I will not create a new email just for EA, why thay cant put 🤬 battlelog in the 🤬 game like BC2 is 🤬 beyond me

I can't create a master login because all the ones I select are already taken, and I know one is from a 🤬 DEACTIVATED ACCOUNT THAT I CREATED!!!!!!!!!!, everything I select is taken, I have tried literally at least 15 different names, and EA support is blocked from reactivating the other account, now who the 🤬 is in charge of this mess!!!!
