Alright, PKP Pecheneg - Motherfuck. I just went 85 - 47 with it on a 1 000 ticket Grand Bazaar server. That gun is insanely good on that map. My total score was 58k!

What attachments do you use? I find the recoil to be a bit too crazy when im using scopes

[leng jai]

So I bought B2k and it won't let me join a server running the new maps since apparently I haven't bought it. Game is up to date, PC rebooted and everything. Fucking sucks.

[EleventhDoctor]

Wow, SQDM is a fucking piece of shit. 4 more wins...

I have one more win to go and it's torture. My Win ratio has plummeted from me trying to get this Challenge.

[RibbedHero]

Foregrip reduces vertical recoil by 33% and horizontal recoil by 50%. Add a suppressor and that reduces the vertical recoil a further 10%.

Seriously. I lost 8 matches in a row or something before I quit. Don't think I'm gonna go back and try to complete it for at least a week.

Same went from 2.35 to 2.22. I guess with 600 games played it doesn't make a huge dent.

Foregrip, supressor and a Kobra.

600 ticket server, spent the whole round in a Flanker on Oman. Those poor F-35s (and helis and the occasional infantry running along oblivious to their forthcoming meeting with jet bullets =D). Ribbons (49)! DICE really really really needs to implement hovering as a mode you switch into and out of with a button press, available when you're under the speed threshold, or something like that.

I'm pretty sure the F35s worked in a different manner in BF2. Can't remember exactly how though.

Also: 1 100 m+ HS on Firestorm a couple of hours ago. Finally the 1k+!

I can destroy F-35s with a flanker, but I can also pull off some great shit with the 35 too. Easy to take down a less experienced Flanker pilot that's tailing you by simply slowing all the way down.

Really wish the hover mechanics actually worked in accordance to what you see the plane doing, instead of just up/down. Would be able to have insane maneuverability.

[-Yeti]

Got my first MAV roadkill today after trying for 3 entire matches. :lol

I don't know how I did it, but I wish I could pull it off again.

[eternaLightness]

Maybe it's me, but I feel like C4 hardly ever gets used in this game. I pretty much only play Support now and I love getting me some C4 kills. Sneaking around a tank and blowing it up and killing myself in the process is awesome!

[subversus]

did you activate the code in Origin?

[Woo-Fu]

The popularity of laser-targeted munitions has certainly changed the metagame, at least from a helicopter pilot's point of view. :) Don't think I much like it but I'm certainly learning to deal with it. Much more hiding, much less killing is the net result.

[Tawpgun]

The bipod is such a janky piece of shit.

Werd. Half the battle is trying to set it up. Once done, its good on LMG's.


Can't for the life of me figure out why you'd want it on an AR or even a sniper. With the Bi-podded sniper you get stability which is achieved by breath holding anyway, and you get less visibility and less mobility.

C4 is sick for defense. I put it in a choke point, wait for idiots to rush in and click it when I catch a glimpse of them.

And tanks. I get at least ONE tank a round. Today I got 2 tanks with C4 in 2 minutes. It was awesome. It was an easy 700-800 points. <3 C4. Every time I switch to Mortar or Claymore, I get an opportunity to nail a tank and I have to switch back. I guess I should start playing infantry only and abusing the fuck out of the mortar.

That's a good thing. C4 is straight up malicious in the right (wrong?) hands.

There's a few of us out there. It's my main reason to use support class because I feel like I have a deadly weapon with a decent option against vehicles if I'm stealthy enough, which is one of my stronger points...lol

It can mean an easy capture or defense of a flag if used correctly and I love putting it on the outside of buildings where guys are holed up in and then dropping the hammer on them as they sit there and wonder what the hell just happened.

Why the fuck are so many people in this game obsessed with lying down and letting the enemy get the MCOMs? It's like 90% of the people that play this game sucked too much at COD so they came into this game so they could suck at it instead. This is why everyone that joins my sessions rage quits after seeing me in no effort bush wookie mode the game after.

[jet1911]

Something strange hapened today. I now have the DOA-12, the SKS and the Type 88 LMG unlocked. Is there a reason why?

Sounds like the Physical Warfare pack. Merry Christmas, I guess.

[akira28]

Arguing the legitimacy of LMGs from the bipod stance is also dumb. Bipods are cumbersome at best and get you killed more often then they'll get you kills. More than that, it's hilariously easy to route "camped" positions in this game, especially as there are plenty of guns that will win over LMG's in a straight sprayoff. Standing still in BF gets you killed, simple as that. LMGs with a foregrip still provide enormous suppressive power when required, as long as the user isn't a complete knob at controlling his ROF, while still letting you be completely mobile and eminently useful in every scenario where a bipod could not be practically setup to an effectual degree (read: most scenarios). The PKP simply outclasses the other LMGs in nearly every real scenario, the only tentatively comparable LMG being the M249.

Back in the BF2 days I played with a bunch of army and marine guys who would run actual tactics and would link up multiple squads to do things like set up MG defense points and hold a certain flag and ONLY that flag(Usually the mosque or the TV station). In a situation like that where you have 8+ people actually talking over Ventrillo, calling out targets and 4 or so support/assault dudes holding a position, that constant stream of fire can work pretty well without needing to dodge around defensively. Nowadays Halo-skills and COD reign supreme, so I'm lucky if I can find even one battle buddy to stick around for more than two or three respawns before they drive off in a jeep somewhere. Totally different styles of play, and I think Battlefield 3 was designed somewhere in an uncomfortable middle ground.

Right. Weird that it unlocked today... The DAO is a beast. :o

Was a C4 addict in BC2, but in this game (at least pre-Karkand, don't know if it's been fixed) the glitch rate was so spectacular I just stopped trying.

Three sticks on a tank, hit the detonator and...more sticks just come flying out. I'm a fucking Pez dispenser, yippee!

[USF]

Shotgun + Claymore + Ammobox in Operation Metro FTW :lol

[NEOPARADIGM]

Why the fuck are so many people in this game obsessed with lying down and letting the enemy get the MCOMs?

I have to say this does seem to be an issue. And it's not like they're not disarming because the MCOM is swarming with enemies; it's like they're just not moving in at all. Some rounds are better than others, obviously, but it's certainly a tendency.

[EleventhDoctor]

Here's an idea. Don't make me load a Squad Deathmatch game for me to get in and one squad has 48 kills. WTF.

[Woo-Fu]

If you're on a squad deathmatch server and a team has more than 2 kills without the round being over already you're doing it wrong.

[snoopen]

down for maintenance. the fuck is this, world of warcraft?

[demolitio]

Man, I love hardcore a lot but I'm getting sick and tired of moronic teammates anymore. I just got teamkilled 4 times in a row and the last one was when I was the only guarding the armed MCOMM so they defused it shortly after. Then I get teamkilled 6 more times in the next map and that's when I decided to take a break. The funny thing is not one of them even apologized for their stupidity when most of them were obvious teamkills where they weren't even shooting at an enemy but rather got spooked or just suck. It still hasn't beaten my record of getting teamkilled 7 times in a row. Bad night...lol

In other news, with one swift blow, my latest doctor has delayed my video card plan with a month of physical therapy and then surgery that just so happens to go into January when my deductible gets to kick my ass, all this while still dealing with the other medical and car problems. Funny that it happens when I'm about to finally get a video card locked down again. All I want to do is be able to play longer and turn my heat up again...lol

[USF]

When is Battlelog coming to iOS?

No one's ever apologized to me, but I haven't apologized to anyone either; just seems to be implied - shit happens. But man, seven times in a row? Jesus.

[demolitio]

Yea, it made my blood pressure raise a little more. I get the legit teamkills where it's in the heat of battle, but if I make a really stupid move and teamkill a guy with no enemy in sight, I apologize to him right away to know it wasn't intentional and that's why those punish systems are good and not so good at the same time.

Support is just about the only class i use anymore. C4 being one of the main benefits, along with good guns (and ive always hated LMG's in almost every other game ive ever played), and ammo sacks (support ribbons all day long!).

on certain non-vehicle heavy maps ill switch to claymores, but C4 is just so fun to use. i always feel naked without having C4 on me. you can do some really funny shit with it as well.

nope c4 is literally half my Support kills. amazing utility. I use it to clear corners when moving on a contested flag (works more than you'd think, lots of derps sitting in corners waiting for you to turn it and get popped). Leave some C4 at a flag and move on to attack another, see the icon start flashing, click >boom> flag defended without even being there.

It's kinda true. But after coming from Red Orchestra 2, the bipod in BF3 seems like a finely tuned machine. I guess it's all a matter of perspective.

i always feel naked without having C4 on me. you can do some really funny shit with it as well.

Last night I was playing on Firestorm, as a Recon with the VAL, and I was pretty much just protecting that lone artillery flag - the one with all the trailers. It was kind of lonely, I was the only person there for a few minutes, waiting for someone to show (usually the base gets a lot of action, since it's the closest one to their spawn). Then I hear the dune buggy starting to approach, and he pulls up about 50 feet from me and starts to cap the flag - but he doesn't get out. I take aim with the VAL, not the most powerful gun, and let loose a little burst. Suddenly the entire jeep erupts in a series of explosions and a number of score bonuses start racking up on my screen. Apparently this jackass was riding around in a jeep strapped with C4.

I had to give my VAL a funny look after that though. It was quite the Indiana Jones moment.

[BattleMonkey]

Is it just me or the B2K maps have a lot of odd pop up. Random rocks like 5 feet from me just randomly pop in. Never get this kind of stuff on the vanilla maps.

[Anton Sugar]

Demize acknowledged some "desync" issues between server and client, responsible for the egregious "killed behind cover" and "one-shotted" issues that some have been reporting. I had a lot of seemingly OHK deaths the past few days.

I've noticed since the patch and/or expansion I've been getting a lot of video stutters. Most are relatively quick, but some can last over a second. I usually get one every time I respawn back in the map.

Annoying.

[Mr Sandman]

Agreed. It works quite well compared to that game. Actually don't have many issues with it. I'd prefer E be deploy though. It's only used for entering vehicles, disarming and such (which those should have priority).

I love setting up an MG nest, with claymores to watch my back as I watch an alley or other bottleneck mowing down infantry. In my opinion the LMGs should have a lot more recoil when not using it or not crouched/prone at least (even with the grip). As it stands now they're basically ARs with massive mags.
