Guess what would happen if that happened irl ;)

Not to aim this at you, but that sort of mentality I hate. People are singing the praise of the BF series because of it still being fast paced and unrealistic enough to appeal to the masses that don't like simulators, but large scale, slightly realistic and have physics and gameplay representative of what would happen in the real world (minus bullet drop...), yet complain when things get TOO hard for you. It is the sort of comments like yours that are why they took out AA causing heli's to shake.

I have yet to have a game where AA has been an issue to infantry, and I have yet to have a game where I have been unable to handle AA whilst in a heli

I know, but I have a hard time believing that you could just sit on the ground as well after getting hit by 4 or 5 bullets and then just getting up. Also, I have my doubts that an Abrams or a T-90 could be done in with 3 rpg shots
 
An actual modern tank would rape the battlefield by itself. Gotta keep some semblance of balance.
 
I can't even play sp, even on the lowest settings this game lags so hard. Every other game runs smooth as butter. Fu EA, FU in the face.
 
How can't you play with that computer lol heck, i even ran it completely maxed(1680x1050 :P) and it was still in the 20 fps range which is slightly playable
 
I am getting more used to helicopters than the jets now. Pretty much getting more kills from it. But mostly getting shot by AAs. Does the heli have a fire extinguisher unlock like jets?
 
hey all im after a definitive answer to a question thats been rattling around for a few days.

With the recent ps3 patch for bf3 there was 100% a nerf in terms of the irnv.

Now some people to claim there was one with the pc patch, i dsont think there was as do many others. however some people claim there was.

i cant bring myself to use it as i think its rubbish, so i have no experiance with it.\


So has it been nerfed? im asking as i keep getting totally raped by irnv toting idiots :P

I have a hard time believing an AA gun would be used against infantry in the first place, but ya know, that is what I meant by unrealistic enough to appeal to the masses. Taking out wobble when a heli is hit by a lump of metal going very fast is just retarded on every level though.

Though I haven't seen it in the patch notes, as I said a few posts back I believe so as now it sporadically doesn't show enemies
 
Fixed so AT mines only live for 20 seconds after a player dies to prevent infinite mines. (We want to make a different fix in the future, it’s in JIRA).

Is it me or does no one ever squad up in this game. :/

Why EA/Dice made the decision not to automatically be put in a squad is beyond me.

I'm sure i read on the "Get satisfaction" website that on the PC version we did automatically get put into a squad,But in a recent update EA/Dice made the decision not to automatically be put in a squad and disabled it for manual selection only. :confused:

Makes no sense because there does not seem to be any team work in this game now,Especially in Conquest large maps. :cool:
 
Had a ridiculous killing spree with the M416 (M145, silencer, foregrip) and silenced M1911 in Operation Metro. 18 kills while running around trying to flank and recapture point C before I was killed, revived and instantly killed again.
 
WTF are these frag rounds for the shotguns :/ i keep getting spammed by then. Last couple of days i have yet to play a full game and enjoy it. The frag rounds are like shots from a tank, i have litrerally been sniped with these things, stupidly over powerful.

They're a nightmare when in a small space. They're just one part of the most insane kit:
USAS-12 with
-IRNV
-Extended magazine
-Frag rounds
