The SQD perks automatically replace their respective "individual" versions when you unlock them, so technically everyone uses them once they unlock.

Well that is nice to know :-). But they will be pointless at sometime, when everybody unlocks them. IMHO Dice shouldn't have made it change automatically.
 
Ill switch to whichever squad perk i have that i dont see being used. I dont have them all unlocked yet, so if the ones i have are in use ill switch to something else.
Generally as engineer i like to run with extra explosives.

Does anyone use this perks SQD (SUPR,FLAK...), I for sure will once I unlock it

SQD FLAK and COVER have saved my bacon a few times where, after an exchange of grenades or FRAG rounds or RPGs, I've killed the opponent and been left with 0-3% health. I can just feel their temperature rising when they see that on the kill cam.

Question: Do you guys tend to stick with one weapon (I see people online with tens of stars on things like the USAS and M249 :yuck:) straight off or do you focus more on unlocking things? I have 1/2 weapons I'd prefer to use on each class, but currently I'm drawn more towards unlocking as much as I can..

Also, feel free to add me, I don't tend to use my mic much but I'm more than up for a game whenever 👍

I play around with multiple weapons, at least enough to unlock the attachments I would want to use on the weapon or until I decide I cannot stand the weapon. I really wanted to like either the M240B or M60, but could not stand using either weapon long enough to unlock attachments. I found both weapons much too frustrating to use in comparison to the effectiveness of the M249.

The SG553 is apparently quite good, I think its the second to last Co-op unlock. Haven't got it myself but I hear from around the web that it is.

P90 is good too, and its for all classes.

The SG553 is a pretty good weapon, as is the G36C for the Engineer class. I quite like both and would recommend either. The HK53 is also a good weapon, but I do not have as much experience with the weapon as I do with the SG553 and G36C.
 
Does anyone here play BF3 on PC? Looking to met some people to play with.

I am no English major, but his sentence looks correct to me. A good test is to remove the contents in between the comma's and see if the sentence still makes sense.

Ah I was wondering what that post was about. In this thread its basically the same guys in here that pretty much always post in a friendly and helpfull manner.

Not that he needs defending but Mike is always one of those to do so.

Cheers Shaun.

I play pretty much nightly although I am starting to loose some interest in the game as having played pretty much non-stop since it's release.

So do i need Origin account for Battlelog and EA account for Origin? How i can make my EA account for my PSN user?
Click to expand...

An EA and Origin account are the same thing I think, because I had an EA account with NASCAR '09 and it is my origin account with BF3 too

I mostly use suppression, but i have never tried flak or cover. Will certainly do, especially because of the one kill thing, that's been getting on my nerv.

It's funny how BF3 has affected me, I bought CSR elite for GT5 and Forza 4, but have only used it 4 times :-). BF3 gets my free time, all the time.
 
^ CSR Elite? :drool: That thing must be really nice to drive with... :) At the moment though I'd still be playing BF3 like you... :lol:

I've played GT5 three times I think since i've had BF3.
And to think this is the first of the series for me.

Not really nice, really brilliant :dopey:, as much as I love driving games, I love BF serial, always have and always will. I'll probably spend more time driving when i buy a bigger flat (with one room for entertainment only - for me and my son). This right now is my dream that needs to come true in a year or so.
 
I think BF3 is a bit like golf in a way.

There are days when nothing goes your way. It spawns you in front of level 1 noobs, to gift them a big scalp. You can't seem to jump over half a branch lying across the path, meaning the sniper you're trying to escape can make a cup of tea and then decide where to shoot you. You jump over a rock and suicide because the other side is actually a bigger drop then you anticipated.

Then there are other days, like I just had. You fall in with guys who are savvy and everybody makes the decision at the right time. You can take down two onrushing enemies point blank using less then a clip of 30, despite being caught reloading. Guys are begging to be knifed, sitting up on the big rock next to the orange bush sniping away like its sunday at the fare.

The push and pull is what makes it so enjoyable.

Edit: Patch news/ rumour.

There have been many bits of information surrounding the upcoming Battlefield 3 patch, and we’ve taken to task to compile all the expected fixes and tweaks that DICE has confirmed will make their way into the new patch, which should be released in early February. The list of confirmed additions:

  • Commo Rose 2.0: a complete overhaul of the “Q”-button communications interface, with new commands, voice overs, and more.
  • Weapon specific accessory tweaks: accessories such as silencers, foregrips etc. will now be tweaked on a per weapon basis and not globally. All accessories are expected to be tweaked in this patch. For more, see a full list of accessory tweaks.
  • A fix for MAV riding will be applied
  • Random “Bad Luck” deaths will be fixed across all platforms.
  • PlayStation 3 users will see a VOIP fix
  • Drivers will now get 50 points for “vehicle assist kills”. Pilot assist points will be increased as well.
  • Sniper rifles will get increased accuracy after aiming-down with Red Dot or Holo sights.

And a few unconfirmed patch notes, but issues/features that DICE are looking into:

  • The USAS-12 with Frag rounds will be balanced (unconfirmed: DICE has said they are looking into it).
  • The resupply speed on the M320 grenade launcher might get increased, according to DICE.
  • Horn sounds will be added to Humvees and other transport vehicles.
  • Fall damage is being looked into as well.

Just wonderful, one level before I get the USAS, it's about to get nerfed :mad:

I hope the last 2 get unconfirmed issues get fixed. But the 3rd to last one...? Sorry, did I read that right? Increase the speed?
 
^ I think they mean reload times will become longer. Wording is a bit off though.
 
I had one of those days from hell yestrerday.
Absolutely nothing going my way. Then got on a round at siene and was literally killed 5 times in a row spawning by Mutha F frag rounds.

Sorry i bailed blitz. Just one of those nights. Realized it was you after looking names up here.

I quit after that game, too. In the game before that I was the reason that team started to come back a little because I was capping a bunch of flags. On that Seine game I was still on the other team and we were losing, so when I saw an opening for yours I flipped and got in your squad. Lets just say after I left there there was a lot more tank-whoring (appropriate wording?) and my new team was going to lose pretty bad, so I said to hell with it and went to play a different game.
 
Yeah we were getting mashed that round. I think it was my first rage quit lol.

Cooled off with some fun on the arkham city imposters beta after that.
