And is sooooooo broken. You can start as recon at the beginning and then run to a spot near A or B. Drop the radio. Then for that 3 minutes you can be any other class and still spawn at the radio. You don't have to stay as the recon class to use it.

I haven't pay enough attention to find out. Can you actually see enemy's supply box and medical box? Can you resupply using enemy's one?

Sniping.

I haven't played BF3, but if the points system is anywhere close to BFBC2, just pure sniping won't get you that many points unless you have some ungodly sniping numbers and accuracy(headshots, double kills, etc) and then, of course, you deserve that many points. But being a good repairing engi, or being a general medic beast or...basically just doing your job well as any class will result in very high scores. Recon just gets a bad rap for being easy because they generally have much fewer deaths than the other classes. I myself liked running around behind enemy lines as a recon with a pump shotgun and C4, loading up spawning vehicles with C4.

Remember, No Russian.

Horrible joke aside, they probably either didn't do the localization or put it in the beta. Or both altogether.

I dont understand why the game randomly freeze's / just shuts down without an error message.

My system specs are well over the requirements. I clean my registery etc with CCleaner I started using chrome just for battlefield 3 I fragment my pc I have the latest drivers. Changed my UAC.

Bitch just chrashes/freezes on me for no good reason - dont tell me its because of the beta, because my friend NEVER crashes or freezes

it's likely an option for commands to be issues in english or russian but for the stripped down beta they probably just left that out.

Do you have the updated drivers?

I also found the Multiplay and MyIS.net servers crash a lot, which gives the illusion of your game "crashing" because if you get dropped you game window closes.

Also make sure you are joining servers where you don't have like 250 ping.

EDIT: I see you have the latest drivers scratch that first part

i actually list servers by ping join the one with the lowest ping to make sure that theres no way for me to just drop out.

Its just kind of disappointing. I really want to enjoy the game, and I do that when im playing quite good imo for someone who was never into shooters. got MVP medal recently. big fat 22-5 I was happy as hell. But when the game just freezes or crashes 3 times in a row it takes all the fun away.

Gave the open beta a shot and just wasn't impressed. I enjoyed BFBC2, but now they've made it even HARDER to see anything and prone allows for some major cheese moments as a result. I really don't like that Origin browser launcher thing, either. It's such a weird way to launch a game, and the interface is not intuitive at all. Could not for the life of me figure out where you could change key controls and graphics options.

Where's a good UT/Q3-esque FPS game these days?

Halo is probably the closest to the old school Q3/UT gameplay these days.. not nearly as fast sadly but the slayer matches feel very Q3 imo

Yeah there isn't nearly anything as fast paced but basic arena style game were people are easily distinguishable in which you could go 100-1 because you're godly with flick shots games no longer exist in new games. I doubt they'll ever make a new game with the pacing of the older quake and ut

Why is Q3, UT and MW even in this thread?

They're not Battlefield. Never has been, never will be. They can't be compared.
Starcraft is a mix between chess, poker and a Michael Bay movie.

I find the guns to be imbalanced and OP as hell. Notably, it feels like everything kills way too fast. If I wanted it like this, I would play on hardcore. As it is now, you can be sprinting for cover and just literally instantly die with no chance for responding to an attacker. This promotes camping big time, which kind of ruins the point of a rush map.

Also, I think there is an issue with the netcode. Namely, I'll just instantly die without any hit indicators from random rifles or submachine guns. This seems to happen the most with the UMP. I'll be running along and just instantly die with no hit indicators (and no it isn't a headshot). I know that gun requires at least two hits, so it is beyond frustrating every time this happens (and yes I am at 100% hp). I think this is either bad netcode or lag as it indicates the player shooting you has fired bullets more quickly than you're currently experiencing.

Granted, the ease of killing definitely makes for some funny defenses. I've been able to hold off entire corridors in the subway just because I get the drop constantly on people with my M416 and tear them to shreds. .

Flashlights are annoyingly OP. I don't care if it is realistic, being able to blind me and practically preventing any return fire is not acceptable. It's fun though when you are able to kill these morons though because you can guesstimate where your cross hairs are and point into the light appropriately.

Battle log is garbage. Whose idea was it to load an external program (Origin) which then will open up a page in your browser which you then will be able to load the game? It's beyond counter intuitive. I see nothing wrong with the paradigm of loading a game and searching for servers that way. This new way is just convoluted and a big F U to steam.

Speaking of UI, the in-game UI is annoying as hell. Anyone else notice how you have to click "Deploy" multiple times in order to spawn? It's because it sits there and does a save each and every time you try to spawn. This is so frustrating and really removes you from the action. On top of that, most the time you spawn you are greeted with 2-3 seconds of black screen before it decides you can see anything. It's super clunky. Also, changing kit customizations and weapon customizations requires far too many clicks. I liked how BC2 was setup, with vertical lists where you could select everything form one screen. The final kicker is the lack of squad joining. I understand that it will likely be added in the full release, but it is seriously annoying being unable to coordinate and join squads with your friends.

It's a fun game, but there are lots of things wrong with it that I know will never get fixed.

mw is actually closer to the pace of quake then most halo games, as halo has shit like tanks and larger maps, alot of cod maps are tiny and just ppl spawn and kill each other. halo has more of that old timy flare to it in terms of style. Some maps of halo are small and no assists like that but not all are.

Cover perk helps reduce the blurriness of an enemy shooting at you. Having the suppression perk makes the enemy's screen blurry when you are shooting at him. I use the suppression perk when I am support class since it's very helpful.


thx and from ur post, every LMGs have supression and i read that UMP-45 also has it, does there's any other weapons that also have it so i know on which loadout it would be useful pls?
