Seems that some people are still playing it though, so i guess the login servers might be down. More questionmarks than answers i'm giving you. | ||

My opinion: + Show Spoiler + After playing for three days I can honestly say that my only beef with the beta is people saying stuff like "this game is so buggy, I'm not going to buy it.ggdice you fucked up battlefield" actual quote taken from game and finally the map they used. Take this with a box of salt because they probably have a good reason for using that map, but to me it just doesn't represent battlefield at all. all and all, I'm extremely happy with the game and really looking forward to trying out the vehicles and the bigger maps. | ||

It gets pretty damn tiring walking/running around in that all day. Don't dilute his question, your example of the laser has no real pertinence to his comment. With respect to the previous poster, i have had a tactical flashlight flashed in my face and its fucking bright. Really can't see shit. Its not like CSS where theres a little white circle, you fucking squint like hell but all you can make out is this white blur. But to answer your question, yes i have had a laser pointer shined in my eye, i regret doing it cause it was a fucking stupid idea. But the amount of vision you lose is approximately equal in practice. All day would be understandably tiring. Even so, it does seem like they have been jogging for a good chunk of the day with how it feels to me. If that's the case, then I would understand, yet I don't have experience in that area, so I went off of something I might be able to compare it to. But this laser is noticeably brighter than the kind you can pick up for $10. Noticeably brighter meaning that if I shine it on my hand, I can read a book perfectly fine in pitch black/you can see the beam's path sometimes depending on where you are. | ||

Imo, if you have decent aim and can handle chaotic situations (Not just spamming your weapon and hope you kill something when you are getting shot at and have multiple targets), I think it's borderline OP. Guaranteed kill, two shots. Which is great seeing as it takes about a half a magazine to kill someone at most distances with the assault rifle or PDWs. | ||

The MK11 is fantastic (I'm working on my 5th service star for it). I like using it with the PKA-S (RU Holo Sight), because it's very open and clear. It's a great rifle for playing marksman, moving with your team, and supporting with long range fire. I really like it for clearing the left tunnel on point 2, as you move in through that big open area you can easily pick off machine gunners or snipers trying to cover the tunnel. It's also great for taking out snipers quickly and quietly on point 1. | ||

I agree in part, but I think headshot registry needs some work. There have been way too many times where my ret was set directly on a still target's head, at close range, while I'M still, and yet no headshot... I think if headshots registered properly, the MK11 might seem less op in medium and long-range situations. | ||

I personally turn off the laser unless I'm moving into CQC, but all the other secondary attachments are underwhelming. Silencer might be better if I played a more lone-wolf role, but as a supporting marksman, it's unnecessary and sometimes robs you of kills. | ||

There doesn't seem to be much teamwork or teambased objective. Everybody is just camping or moving around the map randomly looking for kills. I would prefer it to be more team based. | ||

The improved gunplay makes it easier to lone wolf than in previous Battlefield titles (meaning the classics, 1942 and BF2, not Bad Company), but an organized and coordinated squad is still incredibly unfair. I've been playing with 3 friends and we completely roll most games singlehandedly. A small organized group of people will stomp a large unorganized group 95% of the time. | ||

Which is why you find people that want to play the game how it's meant to be played. Playing in a pub will never have any sort of teamwork. They're the type of players who just want to kill kill kill kill some more. | ||

Thats true in any game, not just in bf3 rofl. Pugs are really really really retarded since they're 100% doing their own thing. That is what he was commenting on and it is true because everyones too busy doing their commandos II: Men of "courage" gameplay and lying prone instead of pushing the front BC2 rush mode was garbage until all the bads left / bads figured out how to play rush and were goods | ||

But in all seriousness, I really hope that there is some new map out during this beta.. can tell that so many people are bored with metro, and who can blame them. Can't believe there are tons of level 30+ in games. | ||

If you get one shot and he is running towards you, the laser will disorient him enough to get the second shot easily. Unless he is right in front of you or something. | ||
