Cheers Actually I was going to put it up with just the ingame sound because I usually prefer that, as I hate the music in other vids, then decided to go with this track from one of the official bf3 trailers that I thought would be safe but apparently not

ty I go with the obvious ones, IRNV... no explanation required, the grip thingy and flash light, as it actually causes your opponent more weapon deviation besides just blinding him.

Edit2: after the patch/nerf, probs go back to my preferred setup of reflex red dot, grip and heavy barrel or possibly laser.

IIRC I once got a headshot with a tank shell shooting at random, does that count ?

Mine is pretty low because I haven't really played sniper yet, in the beta it was probs around that or higher on caspain. Although most of the "longest headshots" are done with the eod bot these days

If you drive eod bot to the other side of the map and get a friend to go prone, you can "headshot" him with the eod bot, that's how people get over 2km headshots xD

I use fraps, I hear its just tough to find a program that can record in real time that isn't huge, because it doesn't have time to compress. You can always compress it after though.

Whats the duration of each of your 4gb files? I know it cuts them into that its just i have cut down from 2560x1440 full screen (11 seconds per 4gb...) to 1280x720 and its still only 2 minutes i tried half screen but obv the move size is cut down to 640x320 so looks a bit **** when upscaled.

Just wondering how i can get more than 2 minutes per block of 4gb because i'm having to go afk for 4-5 mins per game while i have to compress them which is obv a nightmare

HOLY ****, MORE TO COME:

from the BF3 community manager http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield3...2_patch_notes/

--------------------------------
So, here's what I'm seeing.

We've made progress that most of you appreciate and the fixes we are making are welcome. That being said, there are still some issues that you've been asking about that weren't included in this patch. These include, but are not limited to:

In-game VOIP
Various nerfs including Taclight
changes to chat window (size, positioning)
Additional changes to squad interface, including the ability to make squads
Beep beeps (Which will be implemented, just not in this patch)

Squad and in-game interface changes (mostly revolving around the proposed fan-designed interface)

EDIT: TV Missles - definitely known (can't believe i left it off @_@)

EDIT: Spectator/Battlerecorder - Another very popular request. (I can't believe I left it off! I'd like this too _)

Please know that these are definitely on our radar as top issues for community requests.

Some of the issues addressed in this patch were brought to our attention by you guys, including the "negative acceleration" issue. We're committed to continuing to act on your feedback!

Not all of the issues we've solved are as impactful or sexy as some of you were hoping for, but I hope everyone appreciates how hard the DICE team has been working

------------------------------------------------------------

VOIP and creating new squads is really big. Seems like DICE is working hard, I like that.

Agreed, great patch.

Best things (imo) are spawn protection and empty squads.
