battlefield 3

[tino]

I've seen so many people say this game is shit because the PLAYERS are camping

like seriously :S

What you trying to get at...just deal with it?

the people who play the game can't make a game bad

even more so with a new game

That's not true, if a games shit because people are camping its as much the game creators fault for encouraging that behaviour with poor map designs and gameplay mechanics as it is the players themselves.

COD players are running full sprint towards the capture points and getting taken out.

And BF players are sitting in a bush. Doesn't quite work does it?

Electronic Arts has shipped 10 million copies to retailers across the world, many of whom are already requesting more stock.

Three million copies of the game had been sold as pre-orders before the game was released, confirmed Electronic Arts' COO Peter Moore in an investor call yesterday.

Despite Battlefield 3's successes, however EA says it is unlikely to return Battlefield to it's multiplayer-only roots and plans to keep the singleplayer component for the foreseeable future.

'The single play experience is important. It's a great way to get fans into the experience, have them train up and get ready for multiplayer,' EA's Frank Gibeau told Eurogamer. 'A lot of fans just enjoy having that single player experience. So I think you have to have both.'

'Remember as well that single player is often how new players ramp into the game,' added EA CEO John Riccitiello. 'It's a way for new players to get exposed to a franchise.'

Majority of the guys who bought this game will trade it in for MW3.

Btw do you initially need disc 1 to load disc 2? Cos I only wanna play campaign and I gather disc 2 is campaign.

You reckon??

I can't see it, I think the game is solid and the expansion will keep people keen....

Karkand is a dutty map from what I remember, definitely standout.

I got one disc, straight. Game is deep, just finished for the night. Level 8, went in on Team Deathmatch with the shotgun...They've definitely ironed the kinks out.

Fucking hard to kill tanks without C4 or mines..

[Elementalism]

Lol. Just a little raging. Was my first time Llow me. I just hate being shit at games.

Game is decent. I will continue playing till I turn into a beast. EA servers though. Lard gad mi seh. Terrible.

Element give me some tips for engineer. I'm feeling the rpg and shit can't lie.

• Shoot at the arse-end of tanks, they're usually the weakest spot. Two shots take out most tanks. Front armour is the toughest, probably 4 shots, sides 2-3 depending on damage I think. Don't quote man, I'm zoned and tired.
  At distance there is some kinda strange drop, I haven't figured it yet. Try and compensate at range by aiming slightly above the target.
  Learn to track/lead your target smoothly. Predict where it's going to move to. Don't shoot where it was at, shoot where it is heading.
  Pick your shots and know where you are running to to reload, as most engineers hot themselves up on the first shot, so be sneaky. Stick with other engineers for easier tank-takedowns.
  Get the mines, they are a must for defending roads and they give you a heads-up as to where the enemy are, it's not either mines or an RPG like BFBC2.
  Keep playing until you unlock the UMP-45, it's a serious strap. Avoid the SCAR, unless you really like it. I think it's pony. Use silencers.
  Practice quickswitching to your rocket all the time. Get used to it, it will come in handy.
  Drive tanks like a bauze, you can repair them and the more you use them the more shit you unlock for them. Get used to keeping your shit repaired. If you are driving solo, press X on PS3 - the corresponding button on 360 - to switch from driver to gunner. Not really a tip, but some people don't know.
  Blow up shit for your team. That is where this game comes into it's own. Rockets >>> Cover. Use rockets to improve your line of sight...if you need to see into a building where an objective is, shoot a hole in the side of it.
  Having said that, let's say you wanna enter a building - blowing a hole in the wall is a nice way to enter, but if there is someone inside and they don't die instantly, they'll probably investigate the sound/hole. Pop shots in two or more places to keep anyone inside off guard..You can also get jammy kills

Im a beast now. Medic ting.

GOGURDS/COCURDS (Camp on camp your done son)

[Guest haze-e]

Games shit.

[mp*]

glad ure enjoying it, its really good. Anoyying when it puts half your party on the other team.

ive almost maxed our Engineer need like 5000 more points.

Scar is one of the best guns close/mid range. Only drawback is small clip. Im currently using G36C. keep using the gun untill you unlock foregrip, holo sight, and supressor (about 60 kills)

If you use vehicles alot then stick with repair tool, you can get lots of points. When youre defending use mines, if your attacking use the bot (when you get it)

ALWAYS take out enemy vehicles. People can go 30-0 in tanks if you let them. You get points for disabling, destroying and killing passengers so its worth it. Rpg run, rpg run etc if you got no rockets rambo it and use your repair tool to damage the tank. Remember when you disable a vehicle they can still gun you so dont slip. also people normally jump out at this point so again dont get caught reloading your rpg.

[Guest haze-e]

Have 110 kills on my M416.

M4 - Holo sight - Underslung Rail (For noob tube) - Suppressor.

G17C Pistol.

Defibrilator Ammo Specialization.

PEAK.

(Only reason i use noob tube/defib instead of medpack/defib is because someone on my squad is a medic also and he uses em. Noob tube gives me something to assist taking out vehicles or campers hiding in a gay corner)

[mp*]

Yeh i hear that its very useful

I always complain about the scrubby stuff on cod so its only fair but the mortars are a joke on bf3. Its like ulimited ammo barely any reload time. You get a crosshair on ure map and you choose where to aim. So people just wait for someone to appear on the map and blast the area. Its not that its OP its just being spammed with mortars. They need to give it finite ammo and slightly longer reloading

[Guest haze-e]

Noob Tubes on COD>>>>>>Mortars on BF3.

Oh My God. Rage inducing.

[FaTz]

Campaign is haaaard. Playing it thru with the mw2 soundtrack streaming ttkk.

[revs]

This game is annoying when you are on a random team of cunts.

Nobody taking out vehicles.

Nobody spotting

Nobody trying to defend or arm objective points

Fak.

But when you are on team where everyone knows the deal, this game is epic.

[O.Man]

Need to organise vip2 bf3 squads and crews

Watch this topic fall off 8th of November lol

[Ironman]

Am I missing something, are you only allowed to customise your class whilst in game and not in the lobby?

[Guest haze-e]

Either my soldier on the main menu or just before the round starts, before u deploy. You can also change mid round when u die.

[Ironman]

Didn't clock the my soldier bit, thanks.

It's dumb that you can't do anything whilst waiting for the next round. Just going over what you unlocked/achieved.

[Mr. Gayle]

Campaign is much harder than any cod one

Sometimes ur pinned down for ages praying the wall ur behind holds up

The guy who plays Cole is that black English actor who was in Babyfather and bare other stuff David Hareqood

[gyal fi beg]

just copped an origin key off ebay for 22 quid. will be back later with a verdict

[Mr. Gayle]

Finished SP

I enjoyed it, how the story is similar to BLOPS

Ending was a bit meh

The SCAR is greaze, I take it all back :lol:

Got the foregrip and holo, but prefer the reflex on it. Absolutely sick, need extended mags too. Have a similar hatred for the PP2000, but that may subside once I get some more unlocks. Took the piss today and yesterday, bare knifing. Noshahr (SP?) Canals on TDM is absolutely SICK!

Bare tight little corners in the 'container maze' sections, got ridiculous amounts of kills and a good number of knives.

Had a high point yesterday, knifed 3 man in a row on the little sniper balcony by the Market objective on Grand Bazaar. Lying next to each other...

Annoying you have to get behind them, but SO rewarding when you get the nank.

MP, holla me tomorrow if you're playing

[mp*]

LOL scar is getting nerfed I read.

Yeh I had to come off early 2day but ill play 2mo.

Havent played TDM yet, does it work well then?

[Guest haze-e]

Knifing is so pointless in this game once u get silencers. The amount of times i have died because of the animation Kmt. I don't care for dog tags so its a shot to the back of the head thing for me.
