What server size are you playing one? My g/f claims that webpages load slower for her when I'm playing, leading me to believe BF3 might be a bit of a bandwidth hog. If your connection cant handle it, then a good ping could be deceptive. Try some 32 man or smaller servers and see how the lag feels.

Sounds good to me. We should get some choppa action if possible. My EOD bot made a cameo getting shot up by that sniper near end.

I'm going to blindly guess purple, although I'm fighting off an urge to change it to green.

Flow with the go.

I got stuck on the other team and nobody is using our tanks. We are getting slaughtered and windows just decided to update my comp causing it to crash.

So people actually find the jets useful? I drive a tank when possible, otherwise fight on foot (ok 2% helis) and I don't see that the jets ever do anything. I'm not sure I've ever been hit by one, except when I was flying.

Jets are great if you are playing on a good team and are a good pilot. Prob suck in pubs.

Flow with the go for sure! I am probably pretty close to getting my blue any day now fwiw, just finished 3rd in a competition.

I am going on BF3 now as well.

Seriously, I guess EA doesn't care about balancing at all. Playing a conquest map, half our team (including me) are in single digit ranks. Meanwhile the lowest on the other team is 11 and they have two officers.

Well done. I think I meant to say blue instead of green

Haha, I took it as a jab cause I think there is green for like kids or something. I posted some videos in the MMA thread in EDF fwiw.

Back to the game, I honestly don't think I can get more mad then playing this game and people aren't trying to help with objectives. I had 2 recons in my squad today, and in a super close Conquest game they are just sniping at the enemy spawn instead of defending or capturing any of the points. So I can either spawn at the base waaaay back or on them waaaay to far out (in hindsight I could of swapped squads I suppose) I just snapped and spawned on them and TKed both. I just don't get why they play conquest to snipe.

You really cant do that much vs a jet who has unlocked the guided missile (+ maybe the faster lock unlock) You will get hit by missile that usually disables you with 1 shot + salvo of machine gun= dead tank.

The rocket pod is utter crap though.


And the frogfoot and A 10 are absolute beasts and they are super good vs any vechicles.



But yeah usually the jets dont do ****.

Agree for now but I'm pretty sure they will be much more effective once all those unlocks have been grinded out.

It really was. Take all the points on Firestorm then hold the road with 2 tanks with squad mates and me with a javelin. There was nothing they could do, though one of y'all should be support next time just to drop me ammo for infinite javelins (Like an engineer/support tank near me so we still can have piloting & repair at same time)

Also, on caspian, I finally got to fire javelins at choppers thanks to a recon teammates using the SOFLAM. It's very effective. Overall, a very good time indeed.
