Any pro Jet pilots have some tips to share on getting started? I feel so useless in a Jet. No real offensive option, no real defensive option... How am I supposed to get the first few unlocks?

Sounds like you have some serious pc problems beyond BF3  No other games cause instability?

and i dont agree with the sniper rifles being weak. the first ones arent action bolt rifles and the ones u usually use for offensive sniping. if u want to stay back and kill stuff from a higher range u should pick action bolt rifles (sv98,m40a5 etc). use straight pull bolt and u have a real good sniper rifle that needs 1-2 body shots or one headshot to kill people.
also.. many people in this thread already feel the mk11 and svd being to strong and not actually up like u think^^
1 if engineers are not stronger than the other kits, tell me why is everyone playing engineer? just join a random server, even on deathmatch servers its 40% engineers
2 thanks to their m4a1 their are strong in close and mid distance and decent in long distance,
also they have rpgs and just spam rockets on long distances
3 if you play recon you have only one chance to kill your enemy on close distance, if you miss youre dead 99%, on mid distance you have a chance to finish him with your pistol,
so long distance fights are the only advantage recons have,
why is it than that assault and engineers have no problem killing oyu on longer distances,
should be fine for assault when they burst fire and aim for your head, but rocket spam?
when you hit someone with the sv98 on close distance they should be dead
but that doesnt happen, on long distances it isnt accurate enough
assault rifles are not much less accurate, how is that balanced?
you know how often you hit someone and then they just empty their whole magazine in your direction and kill you?

theres a guy making a tutorial on how to fly jets. theres only 1 of 3 parts uploaded till now though.
they also already announced that they are going to buff jets in the upcoming patch (not clear whats getting buffed about them though. maybe flares being standard or mg being stronger dunno)
if ur getting totally dominated in dogfights because u dont have flares or hbeatseekers u can kill ground vehicleds fairly easy with the mg or if nothing helps u can still kamikaze into them

I wouldn't consider myself a pro, but I think the best/only way to get started is taking out other jets. find one and trail it as best you can and once he goes straight for a bit you should be able to line up your gun and take him out. When you're tracking, make sure not to keep your finger on the throttle or you'll surely pass them. when I'm tracking or turning I'm always holding S. Without flares you're gunna have to be kinda lucky I think. Hopefully nobody tries to shoot you down with a stinger, sharp turns can dodge them if they're at the right angle, also flying high will keep you out of lock range.
It's really just dog fights that will get you points until you get missile pods I think. I just got them and it's very easy to take out marked tanks and infantry with them.
Oh also, playing rush games in kharg or firestorm may be easier because each side only gets one plane.

Sad part is flying a heli is much much harder than piloting a jet :|

It's definitely harder but not MUCH harder. Doing damage to ground with a jet I mean, not just flying around and dogfighting.
PS Yay for supposed jet buff.

I just played my first round on the TL server. I joined it through the previously posted banner. I tried to search for it before.
I had great ping and it looked like lots of people take the dog fights seriously. I wish it wasn't so easy for people to clear out stinger missiles with flares. I am digging the Assault class the most so far. I am not sure who on my team I should group up with so I tend to do my own thing.

most are playing engineer because u have anti-tank weapons. and ur definitely going to come across vehicles in rush/conquest etc. another thing is those are pub games. most people dont know what teamplay is. all they want to do is have the highest score, best K/D ratio. winning the game is actually secondary for them. as of right now there are no real pub servers with rules. it should be common( at least for me) to get kicked for using rpg on infantry, claymores on mcoms and so on.

agree with the first part. but i think thats fine because assault has even better weapons. second part adressed above.

but that only goes for action bolt sniper rifles in which case u should use ur pistol anyway. if u use semi-automatic u can still kill people close range. and i do think that recons have advantage on long distance, because u can just go hide and only have to headshot him. he has to hit u several times to kill u. even if u miss u can just go behind cover and try again.

i think the sv98 does not have enough fire power. try the m40a5. with this weapon u can often oneshot people even with bodyshots. dunno what u mean about them being not accurate enough though? ther longer the distance the more zoom ur scope should have(12x for longest distance)
adressed the rest above.

Applied to join the TL Platoon. My BF3 name is: CrisisCauser
Also, serious question. Is fast respawn truly a desirable feature? In my opinion, it's absolutely not. I like being with my squad and taking over a control point all by ourselves (or sometimes, by myself). Inevitably, you have to kill a few people in that spawn point to do so. Fast respawn gives them more of a chance to keep coming back and taking the spawn point. It gives less penalty to reckless play and, imo, only encourages it since you'll be back at that spawn point before you know it. In regular servers, I have to be more careful when defending my spawn point because I know if I die that I might not make it back in time on the next respawn. The precious few seconds that the faster respawn adds simply takes some tension away.
This is a StarCraft forum, after all. Do we want the server to be the equivalent of Fasted Map Possible, appealing to inadequate players who have neither patience nor skill? I'm not saying we need to be Tournament Pros at BF3, but it just seems rather dumbed down to see the TL server advertising "Faster Respawn" when the developers made a slower and more deliberate respawn time for a very good reason.

downloading it now. I started at ~2mb/s then it went down to 200kb/s.
Mans did some google and found cheat engine.
now I have 9.4mb/s WTF OMG WOW

I need some help please, still cant solve this multiplayer issue.. luckily the campaign is fun.
I need Q to be my strafe left... but that is the key to issue squad command. I've overridden the "commoN' q command with a different key, and obviously have strafe set.
No matter what... q just pulls up the squad commands....
Any ideas?? I literally can't play multiplayer because of it.

That's silly though. You seem to be arguing that the engineer isn't overpowered because using its weapons abusively should be banned. That's the very definition of overpowered. Personally I'm neutral on whether or not they actually are OP, but it's not helpful to say that they're fine because any real server would disable the main reason a lot of people choose them.
I will say I find it tremendously frustrating that at least 1/3 of my deaths is to explosive spam, and that my team mates are never ever able to give me ammo or heal me because they've decided it's more fun to fire rockets at enemy infantry. Especially when there's enemy armour in the same game that manages to chase me around my own mcom for ten minutes at a time. I certainly wouldn't mind if there was something that caused anti-tank weapons to actually be used against tanks instead of my face.

Actually, forget about faster respawns for people being a problem. It seems like vehicles come back instantly? Now that's not needed. It seems so... noobish and a stain to be removed from the server (not to insult anyone). You get rid of kill cam, appealing to better players, but you allow people to instantly respawn in their vehicle that was just destroyed? That's the definition of no consequences.

Honestly the heat seekers are nearly useless, at least for me imo. They always get the flares off so the missiles dont hit. Personally I use belt speed with the air radar and rocket pods, most of air to air kills are done with the machine gun, and for ground targets I use the rocket pods although the mg works as well. Gunning other jets and helicopters is a good way to get points but if thats too hard for you. take out tanks, burst fire into you get close then unleash hell
