In BC2 (maybe BF2 aswell I didnt play that though) you could sniper heli pilots and make the helicopter just fall out of the sky and explode at your feet. It was so fucking badass. Game hasn't arrived yet and I wasn't able to test it in beta but does anyone know if you can still do it in bf3.

Also from beta gameplay it didnt look like you could harm jets with small arms fire is that right?


Yes you can (its in the multiplayer trailer as well that you can do this).


You can't kill drivers of Hummers with bullets pointblank through the glass. Haven't tested it with helicopters/jets yet. I know you can shoot people out of a helicopter though if they are a passenger and hanging on the side.

Not sure if gunfire even hurts helicopters or jets actually, have yet to see the animation on my aimer notifying me I hit something or I'm doing dmg. I can clearly see the bullets hitting the armor though. I keep shooting though because nothing else I can do if I don't have an RPG lol.

Well its probably bullet proof wouldn't it be I imagine? I mean I have killed people driving before like killing the driver :o.

But yeah you can snipe a pilot through the glass of a helicopter I mean it shows it in the multiplayer trailer of a guy shooting his m4 at the front of the heli and the guy dies and the helicopter drops. Idk about jets though I imagine no because they move to fast xD.

I killed someone while he was hovering with the helicopter before, so its definitely could be done.

Being in a squad without an engineer is suicide I think i spend half my time running into the open, seeing a tank/humvee/whatever, and running the fuck away. I just wish assault had some sort of unlock that allowed me to damage them at least. The best place to be sometimes is right next to the tank, because they dont notice you and cant shoot you ^_^ Not to mention they make great cover.

Is there any way to join games with people in one of your platoons? I've searched up and down on the TL Platoon page but I can't seem to find anything like "currently online" or something like that.

GLs must damage humvees...with underslung enabled it's added to your gun to make switching easier.

yes its possible, BUT

-u need the right weapon and class for it. so for instance u can snipe helicopter pilots with every bolt action sniper rifle( have yet to confirm if its with mk11 etc possible as well). u can also shoot every person out of vehicles that u can actually see.
-same goes for support class and their lmgs.
-not possible with engineers(tried aks-74u/m4/g36c)
-have not tried assault class yet

so i played almost the entire night and i am having a blast. this game is so much fun.
now i really wonder if there was anything in battlefield 2 that was better than it is now in battlefield 3. for bad company 2 i could have named a ton of things i liked better in bf2 but in bf3 nothing really comes to mind. atmosphere, gunplay, huge maps, BEAUTIFUL graphics, base jumps, jets- just overall fantastic experience.
i played around with the settings a lot and now its really smooth with no fps drops. if you have a gtx 460 try these settings:
everything high except: motion blur off, effects medium, geometry detail medium, normal aa, hba/ssao off.
it runs like an absolute dream for me now which makes me really happy because in the beta even everything on medium was lagging for me.

I'm pretty sure you can't kill people sitting in a humvee with a sniper rifle because I have taken shots at people in those things at 10m range and did it absolutely nothing. Maybe the m98b can penetrate, but so far I haven't encountered a rifle that has that kind of power.

Did have. Updated Nvidia graphics drivers, and everything is running smoothly. No more freezes that I have to ctrl+alt+delete from.

This game is so much fun Glad that I decided to buy it. Leaps and bounds better than beta. The last time I was having this much fun with an FPS game was when I was playing CoD4.

I've killed people in humvees with my assault rifle :| Don't see how a sniper shouldn't work.

edit: I'd also like the server list to be more customisable. I've had the most fun on 20/24/32 player servers. Wish I could search only for those. 64 on more infantry based maps like Bazaar or Seine ( not to mention metro) is a clusterfuck. 64 players is good on teheran or caspian.

Yes i had this problem. Game would freeze and the sound would start to loop. I couldnt even ctrl alt del out of the game, had to hard reset. But i found a solution for this problem, atleast for mine.

If you have a new ASUS mobo with efi bios, there are 3 settings in ez mode wich you can choose. eco, normal and performance. I had the performance setting selected, when i changed that to normal the freezes stopped. I just played for about 8 hours without a single problem. before i couldnt play longer than half an hour without the pc freezing.
