Latest on Battlefield 3’s award winning gameplay for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, & PC,also
Battlefield is the king of action-packed shooters and online combat…so i liked it
Nah that thing is crap, I am near the top of the score board every game and always PTFO but according to that thing I do not.
You’re going to really hate Closed Quarters I think. Mind you, I don’t know how some of those maps aren’t going to be absolute clusterfuck explosion fests unless they limit the map size for players, I can’t see 64 people working at all. I am however very much looking forward to some more CQ.
I think they will be okay as long as I stick to 16 man games. I ended up playing some 16 man matches over the weekend and had a lot of fun.
I shall do a write-up of all the Assault Rifles later on today.
CQ will be awesome simply cause of the SPAS-12 and AUG A3.
Also I agree with this man’s PDW review thingy:

I used to use the M416 all the time as it was my main weapon in BC2 but they nerfed it so much in the 1st patch and didn’t touch it in the 2nd patch. It just takes so many bullets to kill 1 person that they often get off round a corner before you can quite finish them off and then you have to reload and end up getting killed by the whole squad that the person has run to. I find it just lacks that punch to really be anything better than average to poor in most situations and in every area there is a weapon that exceeds it. I still have nearly 40 stars with it but I stopped using it completely since a few days after the 1st patch because it just feels like I’m handicapping myself when using it. Basically it does the same jack of all trades job as the M16A3 but not as well. The M416 has more recoil, less range, slower RoF, lower bullet velocity and longer reload times than the M16A3.
1.80(M16A3) compared to 1.90(M416) isn’t THAT long.
No but it is longer and in this game that fraction of a second could mean you live or die. If you compare 1 thing between both guns then it doesn’t seem like one is that much better but when the M16A3 is slightly better in every aspect then overall it ends up being a much better weapon.
I actually started using the KH2002 tonight as I haven’t tried it post patch. Its actually quite a nice gun and is almost on a level with the M16A3. It doesn’t seem to drift off to the sides when firing so I guess its drift is balanced to the left and the right and it doesn’t kick up as much as some ARs. I may run with it a little more this week just for something different.
The KH2002 kicks up ALOT.
You think? I didn’t find it did in the one game I used it for tonight. It seems to have a little spread to the sides, low upwards recoil and a decent RoF for burst weapon that is actually pretty accurate. The only thing I did find worse than the M16A3 was that it took some astronomical time to reload when empty. I might look up the reload times at some point.
I tried it with a FG/H-BAR and it’s just not the same as it was pre-patch were you could do mid-range and long-range and hipfire the thing in CQC and still kill people. Still a decent gun but the M16A4 is prolly better with the same TTK.
I will now use the FAMAS as my CQ AR of choice just to troll people XD
I just looked at the patch notes and they made no changes to the KH2002 so it shouldn’t be different. 
Haha FamASS is definitely a troll gun now. Im quite looking forward to using the SCAR-L in the CQ map pack. It was always a great gun in RB6.

Sooooo…BFBC3 just popped up on some developer resumes…alongside Mirror’s Edge 2.

~K.
Got the source?
Sweet. BC3 will be awesome. Those references are on work in 2009 though :P. I heard before that they were making Mirrors Edge 2 but then they cancelled it.
Anyway back to that tier list you posted earlier (you missed out Steve). I took sometime to run through and try some of the ones I don’t use on that list. I wouldn’t put the F2000 in the lowest tier. I think they’ve actually struck a decent balance with the assault rifles compared to other classes. Basically I don’t think nerfs are needed but C and D need punching up a bit. FAMAS needs to be put at the halfway point between what it was and what it is now.
S:
AEK
M16A3
A:
AN-94
F2000 (this gun received buffs in the last patch and is nearly as good as the M16A3 but with just a little more recoil, it rips through people fast though which keeps it in A tier)
AK-74M
B:
L85A2
G3A3
KH2002
Steve Fox
C:
M416
M16A4 (patch seems to have made this very different to the A3 and the initial recoil is a bit too much considering its a burst weapon)
D:
FAMAS
I tried out the 870MCS with Slugs today:

Please God. Please. Let this happen. BF3 is the worst thing DICE has ever done.
Why do people keep thinking BF3 would be exactly like BC2? I’m pretty sure it’s a different series.
