The Official Battlefield 3 Thread

I may do that since I have yet to try mp. This whole team work thing, not really big on it. I could give two shits about working in a team. I do that enough in real life, the last fucking thing I want to do in my leisure time is stress out over players not doing their part.

who wants to tank glitch?

I see a lot of people saying shit like “I hate this game because people wont plant the bomb or defend the bomb so im dropping it” and such things all pertaining to Rush mode. It seems these people don’t realize there are other modes to play besides Rush. I just inform them that there are several modes, try them all and see what fits your play style the best…or go back to CoD. Yes, most of the people that say shit like that also go on about their K/D ratio and how they can play the same way in CoD and go positive. Very sad.

Anyhow, I played more of the campaign last night. Its still pretty cool and freakin’ gorgeous. I was on some jet mission and that shit was pretty dope. Trying to get a lock on the last freakin’ enemy jet was a pain in the ass though. The endless spawning bad guys in the campaign is pretty annoying though.

I loved that jet mission. I wished it taught me how to fly the plane though. lol. It just taught me to drop flares.

Here is a video of the start of the Jet mission I was talking about. That shit is pretty dope. I’m with you Sheng-Long, I wish I could have flown the damn thing so I could get some much needed practice in so I wouldn’t always crash online.

Remember, this is the campaign so don’t watch it if you don’t want to ruin anything.

I got fuckin bumped in MP in a jet yesterday and it got me off balance enough that i crashed as so I hit the throttle, lmao…

I HAAAAATTTTTTTEEEEEEEE rush! hate it!
I just hate walking into traps, lol

Nah they have to run over the mine, you can throw C4 on it though and blow it up when they take off with it.

Cod players are so despised in the FPS community as a whole that even Halo players do not want them. I am not even saying that to be mean as I think Halo might be the most overrated series ever but it is true. It is literally the most selfish, self centered bunch of players that have ever came out of an FPS. All they are about is their K/D and whether they can put their leet skills on youtube with their 10000 Quickscope video. To be fair to Cod though I do believe if Halo would have had the kind of outlets when it was becoming popular that Cod had the same thing would have happened to it. You can not blame IW or Treyarch for the idiots their games spawn, but you can blame them for catering to those idiots and further fanning their idiocy. And yes there are always exceptions to the rule before someone goes nuts on it.

Heya, just wanted to let you guys know I got a server tonight and just hoping you all can populated it or favorite when you get a chance! Planning on running all modes but currently only CQ/RUSH. I wanna try out the maps more and then streamline the experience based on player feedback e.g. “Grand bazaar in only conquest mode” or “Seine TDM/Rush/CQ”.
if you’d like to add me on Battlelog just PM me here or see me ingame! (Cadence.rtsd). Thanks! Happy fragging suckas

Yeah you can get road kills… basically you have to be going full speed and “swoop down like a hawk”

Its the most hilarious thing ever because people just spaz out.

Also AT mines are insanely good… the Ronco of weapons, set it and forget it. Although thermal scopes pick them up easily so eventually a lot of tanks will be picking the out. Jeeps though, lawl.

So it’s confirmed Battlefield 3 is the fastest selling videogame of all time :eek:

I read a story that they sold 5 million in 1 week as opposed to Modern Warfares 7 million in 24 hours record? 10 million shipped means they’re not sold yet. So I guess it’s just EA’s fastest selling game then?

Anybody heard any of the Origin drama going down? I read some stuff about how in Germany it is voilating law because the installer is scanning your entire computer – including private documents – even before the EULA is accepted? EA might be in hot water if that’s true.

And have they gotten the squad issues fixed yet? Can you manually create a squad mid game?

Yeah, ive heard some shit about it scanning files and shit on your computer. People saying its like spyware shit or something. I dont know if its true or not but it is bullshit if it did scan my system.

Yep you are probably right

First line says "The game’s publisher, Electronic Arts (EA), says it (BF3) is its** (meaning EA)** fastest selling video game ever.

That kinda surprises me, I would think Madden would have pulled more numbers?

Are you kidding me? Madden on PC would sell that fast?

correctomondo

to join a new squad you have to leave the one you’re currently in then you are put into the “not in squad” category THEN you click on an empty or whatever squad your friend is on then you’ll see a small “join” button appear below the squad table at the bottom-ish of the screen.

it’s a hassle few clicks too many but thats how it’s done

Still better than beta, when you had one button “Join Squad” that you didn’t get to choose. Maybe could be more efficient but glad to hear they got that straightened out
