On another note, the Carbine with Reflex RDS, suppressor, and laser sight is some serious business. My jaw dropped when I was flooring dudes from medium to long range. =O
Tried my hand at being Recon today. Holy shit I can’t snipe to save my life…also I’m too used to CoD “Physics” where EVERY shot you take goes straight. I then figured out you have to aim just above your target’s head. Jeez…
…though putting mobile spawn points for my team is cool and I can just run around with my 870 or UMP45 XD
I felt right at home, but I also played BC2 Recon as my first and main class. From what I can tell, the bullet drop seems less drastic in BF3, but that could change by the time it goes gold.
Pro-tip: DO NOT burst-fire an LMG it causes you to lose accuracy
Wow, the server goes down after playing only 1 match that I haven’t touch since the weekend. They be trollin :sad:
You sure about that? I have much more success at a distance with LMG’s if I burst fire.
I’m okay at sniping but people are getting ridiculous at hiding in this beta. We need a change of map asap,I have to rock suppressor too much to dominate an area.
The one thing Im still bad at is support. I finally can run Recon and Assault well but in my fav class I get crushed. How do you guys use the C4 effectively because I can’t do crap with it. Do ya blow a hole in some wall or what? I can never time using C4 right without getting shot somehow.
Also for the guy asking me about LMG stuff this vid is where I got most of my BF info:

Got to play 2 full matches yesterday, but thats it. Late night yesterday, and so far today, all I get is connection errors and whatnot. I’ve been trying to join a server for like an hour now, while browsing on the other monitor, and have got the game to actually pop up twice. That’s followed by an immediate connection timed out error though, and it was the same last night. I’d get in, play like 10 seconds, and then get a connection timed out…
Not good enough at hiding, me and my M40 find them and I like headhunting. Did you not like running Recon Akimbo? It is really a totally different game then playing the rest of the classes. The mobile respawn is really damn good though. Maybe if you want I can show you all the good sniping spots and some good mobile respawn points. I know I need to work on the other classes anyway since Recon is by far and away my best class. I am a damn good Recon but I suck with Eng something fierce and am okay with the other 2.
may be coming to steam.
Also last night i had a bug where i spawned on a sniper in the back and it placed me outside the map boundries… I was able to run the city streets and pick people off from the side walls lolol.
EDIT: Mobile respawn is amazing, drop that bitch near a MCOM and gg.
Man, stupid fuckin’ Battlelog needs to update faster or something. I played a couple really good matches (for me) on the Xbox last night and I wanna post it but I cant, because it’s not on Battlelog.
I had played a couple matches on the PC and did really shitty so I was like “fuck this im gonna go smoke” and I went outside to smoke. I was salty though so I said fuck it and fired the game up on the xbox while I was out there. I turned that shit around though. I was peelin’ mad caps and blastin’ mad fools with that rocket launcher. **
Lol@DICE calling people retarded
Since imageshack is being stupid I’ll just quote what the BF twitter says:
Damn o0
I canceled my pre-order, but thats because you cant change your username in Origin which was carrying over through battlelog… fucking retarded because I never chose my origin name it was like randomly assigned or something.
They also have to realise a bunch of people just wanted in for the early beta access.
I may cancel, if only because their media campaign is dumb and I’m not to thrilled with the Beta (not bugs/graphics issue just feels sort of…meh). More and more I buy less and less MP shooters, not that interesting of a genre these days to me.
Still, shotgunning dumbasses has it’s fair share of lulz.
BTW that pic was faked, that was never posted on their twitter, but there was a twitter post saying that the image was faked.
Class info update for BF3:

They need a better person to do the voice over though.
/edit: crap that video was terrible and only semi-informative.
Yeah I missed the post after that saying this my bad X_X
LOL@Jae getting the MAV Micro-UAV to work in game despite it not being in the Beta.
“WTF I have a robot!? What the shit is this!?”
Jae’s in game reactions are the lulz. Is it anything lime the chopper UAV in BC2? (can mark people and has a machine gun) or just for annoyance and map spotting/reveals?
Nah it doesn’t shoot anyone, all it does is make it to where you can basically mark everyone of them on the map no matter where they are bushwookieing. Guys just won’t be able to enjoy their hickory smoked bacon.
I’m getting better and better at Recon. Look at my above post and you’ll see I discovered the power of the mobile insertion or whatever its called. Assault is so easy for me to get good scores in I don’t see how anybody struggles with it but I will give tips to those who need them.
But yeah I can’t get anything going with the C4 or Support for that matter lolz. Having ammo packs is great but nobody if very rarely lives long enough for me to get any real point off them like I can with heals. I’ll take any Support tips given without argue haha.
But yeah as for Recon I not a very campy Recon as I aggressively seek out spots for myself and more often for my team. I rack up easy scrub kills with my SKS down tight tunnels and rock my very pimped out Ump to mow bitches down for MComms captures.
Can’t help ya on Engineers since I never play it but that SCAR gun is badass. Sorry.
Oh and will people revive if your a medic with that skill plz people. This isn’t Blk Ops with second chance pro your not making some noble stand! Your hurting the team by making it harder for people to get back in the fight and help. I had a guy next to me with it after we killed a guy and I died defending the Mcomm and he just stood there.
He got shot in the back 2 minutes later by two dudes…dummy.
