The Famas is not useless it is just limited in use. It still beats out everything up close and you can get decent mid range if you learn the recoil. It is severely nerfed though and is only viable on certain maps and game types. Rock it in something like TDM or the smaller Conquest maps and it can still rape. People look at it wrong, there is no use to the extended barrel on the Famas because the recoil is still going to be ridiculous. I usually rock it with a grip and a flash suppressor or just the suppressor.
Yeh if you aren’t going to use it with the flash suppressor then you probably won’t ever do much with it. The patch gave the flash suppressor a large buff in adding muzzle control so combined with the grip, guns like the FAMAS and the AEK just rip people to pieces up close and can be used quite effectively at mid range because it really tones down the recoil alot.
I’ve played both and decided that BF3 is just “godlike” in general. PC does have the added bonus of more players but 360 you learn to put yourself about a lot more and it seems console players have adapted to be more aggressive in their play to make up for less players on the map. Ive still had games on console with standard ticket counts and pushed close to 100 kills and had some really intense fighting throughout.
I prefer console overall because I am pretty much (other than the M26 issue) guaranteed a fair fight but on PC it does have issues with hacks.

Going to give the Most Bland Assault Rifle in the game AKA The Cookie Cutter Weapon AKA the M416 a try today.
So I got admin killed then kicked in one server for being a tryhard and Cawi got kicked and banned in another for getting into the Pilot seat of a Chopper.

Yeah I’m going to make the M416 my “mid-range” Assault Rifle of choice. Fore grip+Flash Suppressor.
I don’t understand how anyone can be reliably good at this game. Everything is such a cluster fuck all the time. I seriously can NOT get a grasp on this and its really starting to get on my nerves.
Elaborate on “Cluster fuck”
It seems like no matter where I spawn, there is a high chance I’m spawning in the path of bullets. There are always too many people in any given area it seems. Also at times I will see people clearly hit by my bullets (blood will fly) with no hit marker, and they kill me instead. All of the maps feel like a maze of buildings and they are built to funnel people through hallways into courtyards. Maybe I’m playing in games that are too big, but then again, 32 people on certain maps is just ridiculously stupid.
I also think suppression is the worst mechanic in any game ever.
You DO realize you can see where you’re going to spawn so you don’t die instantly right? I usually spawn a bit away from the action.
He is probably playing just TDM.
I can’t stand TDM. I play conquest, and sometimes rush.
And yes, I DO realize that. I’ve been playing Battlefield since 1942 came out and I can’t get my bearings in this game.
PC BF3 I could understand, 32 v 32 on these sized maps would be dumb as shit imo. BC2 maps were considerably bigger and designed better for that huge number of players.
There are a few maps that are great for 32 or even 64 players. Go figure that they are the Battlefield 2 maps.
I did get a sniper rifle that I enjoy though. So now, other than all logical sniping paths being blocked by buses, signs, debris, and foliage, and scope glint, sniping is almost fun again.
Just do not use a scope over 8x and you will not get a scope glint, I never use 12x scope because of that. It does suck ass though, they really nerfed the recon kit hard.
Is that 8x and up that has glint? Or is it 8x and below don’t have it?
It kind of sucks working your way up to a nice spot to snipe from, only to see your view is blocked by all kinds of random shit. Now that I have this new rifle I’ve gone back to playing recon like I did in BC2. Run around and cap flags while blowing people up with the GOL. Never really hid and sniped.
8 and 12X Scopes I believe. Most useless Recons will have them on their SV98/M98B/M40A5. I mostly use Recon as a way to run Shotguns/PDW’s on Close-range maps but I’ll occasionally use the SKS or M39 EMR if I wanna be a marksman.
I totally just stumbled onto this via BF3Stats.com, of which I found to be very interesting:

It’s a fair representation of your frame of mind in the game based on your answers given on the test.
