Have to admit not feeling like playing BF3 at all, is End Game worth downloading? does it feel new?

In my opinion, it's worth it. CTF is so fun in BF3, dodging tank shells on dirt bikes and shooting down helo's with the AA transports. I'm not a big jet pilot but Air Superiority is surprisingly fun flying around huge (probably 5000 meters by 5000 meters, i dont know someone correct me if im wrong) maps and shooting people down. I had Premium so I don't know what this is like if I paid 15 bucks, but it is definitely worth it.
 
End Game is well worth it. Air Superiority is a great way to get points in the jets if you don't have everything unlocked. It's 400+ points just to capture an objective.

CTF is great. Changes the way you have to play the objectives. A good team can have a few players stay back guarding the flag while the rest go for the enemy flag.

On an unrelated note, I started out tonight by playing Scavenger. Didn't go so well in terms of my team winning.

I can only carry a team so much if they aren't trying to play the objectives.
 
This is a stupid question, but if I buy Premium now will I get everything released so far for free?
 
End Game for PC is 4.2 GB...

Well I guess my new internet connection can handle it. Getting 5.20-5.50 mb/s.

Maybe I can take a quick shower before playing?! :p
 
Mean while my PS3 is on a 65* Angle, only way it plays Disc. So now waiting for New Blueray tray. Im a sad panda, missing out on BF3 end game.
 
Anyone recognizes this cinematic?

Just DL'd End Game on Xbox and so far I have mixed feelings about it.

After the 8th crash into a teammate while going for the same guy I nearly quit AS forever but eventually I got the hang of it and have a few fun/successful games. I really wish they didn't make air radar so useless though. And while they disabled ejecting (👍) I lost a few kills to people hitting suicide (👎). Not nearly as many heatseaker spammers as I was anticipating but I still prefer a gun-only dogfight any day.

Also I had a huge problem with hitting the ceiling on those maps and so did everyone else. It'd be nice if they upped the limit a bit just for AS games. edit: it was 2 maps in particular. The one set in Fall and the one set in Spring (whatever they're called)

Everything else is good. No real complaints about anything else yet.
 
You'll have to deal with the team members crashing into you. It's just the nature of the game mode when most people aren't use to flying jets.

What's even worse is getting "Vehicle Destroyed 50" and not getting a kill from it even though there was no suicide involved.
 
Unlocked my S-Tac M1911 last night. Took it for a spin. Very effective. The enemy know they're getting hit but they don't know where from because I'm not on the minimap so they turn around and get a light in their eyes.

I can't play gunmaster anymore... I have yet to lose at it, so I'm too scared for my streak :lol:

On another note, I haev had it up to *here* with the Airdropped IFV assignment. First of all, you have to be lucky enough to have died right before it's available to drop. Second; you have to be lucky enough to land in a secured location. And third; you have to actually find the correct enemies to kills. The whole challenge is luck based.
So far I have been able to grab one of those things twice. The first time it dropped me right on an enemy flag, so all I did was kill one infantry guy before I was swarmed by other vehicles. The second time it dropped me (no joke) right next to an enemy support guy loading up a bike with C4. He just stood back and blew me up as soon as I landed.

No its not I did it in one match you just have to be good lol take out the enemy ifv, kill a random soldier from opposite team and destroy a guy on the hmmv or vodnik..

I was able to do it today, but didn't you read why I was having trouble? It had everything to do with sheer dumb luck.
 
That AA/AT car is a bit of a beast, no? I was on a server last night mainly to have a little play with stuff, I was sat in a Vodnik trying to shoot a Little Bird down. Along comes a tank, I switched to AT, four rockets to the front right corner (not a particularly weak spot) and killed it. Bikes are quite good too, a single JNG-90 round managed to disable an enemy bike so that's good, I was worried they'd take too much to knock out so you wouldn't be able to stop a bike with normal infantry weapons before it zooms out of range.
 
The modified humvees and vodniks are always ripping me up. On foot, tank cHopper whatever they always wreck me and take some serious damage but when im in them i feel like im shooting nerf footballs out of a car made of melted cheese.

This is true, but they have one fatal flaw. Their reload time is so slow, that if you are in a tank and they manage not to kill you, you can fire off 2/3 tank shells before they even have ammo again.In other words, survive the first wave, and you win.
 
Today I was playing on the Nebendan Flats (or something to that affect) and I shot down a Little Bird using the M220 TOW launcher killing the two people in it. I felt awesome. :p
 
I got my M1911 S-Tac pistol last night that was part of the post "Nevermind" that i edited after i figured out how to get it.

I am having a lot of fun with these tactical pistols. I have a technique that i am using with the tactical lights that seems to be greatly effective. They never know what hits them most of the time.
 
Tzun
What assignments is needed for the S-Tac?

GTPorsche
All of the End Game assignments.



Yep.

Well on another note. I just had a great match at Operation Metro. It was a very long one and fun. I have been trying to figure out a new weapons to use that suites me better and I think it is the M16A3 (with reflex RDR site, Foregrip tactical light) . Like i said before it has all three firing modes so i am really liking that. Also like i said earlier I am using my little trick with the tactical light to throw people off

Basically see for yourself the result of me using it.

Started up the game last weekend to play a couple of matches.
Must have shot down around 10 little birds with my tank in 1 round :p

They even thought I was cheating when I shot one down from a couple of 100m away.
I was smiling after that one. The chopper wasn't even hoovering still when I hit it.

Regular shell or guided shell?
