I've encountered 3 hackers in 160 hours. They ruin the game for both teams which is annoying but they're few and far between considering that ratio and even if I find one I just go on another server since theres a million servers. I play on some servers where I see people getting constantly kicked via text alerts so i assume i've encountered more but punkbuster has handled it.

Hackers ruin any game for sure, but not so much in games with dedicated servers since there are admins and a countless number of servers available. So I wouldn't say that the blatantly obvious ones aren't very common

just one thing that bothered me, saw 2 verrry obvious hackers already. how common is that? pretty much makes the game unplayable when there is a 100-5 guy in the enemy team.


I haven';t encountered any hackers but i've only played ~50 hours. If you spot a hacker, just disconnect and go to a server with a admin online. Most servers have admins always avaliable.

I just encountered a hacker today for the first time after almost 100 hours game time. It wasn't even a game-breaking hacker, just some guy with an mg that was camping somewhere getting the occasional headshot from insane ranges. Hackers are annoying, but it really isn't that common.

I wish there was a lot more people playing infantry only

I know it is cool with all the veichles and stuff but on 64 player maps is all boom boom boom.

Would love to have lot of players on a map without everyting exploding and screen shaking all the time.

Other than that really enjoying the recon class. Once I got used to the bullet drop it's all fine but damn it was frustrating in the beginning.

32 players is a nice change every now and then from the 64

I have to say though, even though I used to play BF2 infantry only a lot, I really feel it's just bad in bf3, the major advantage in bf3 in my opinion is having vehicles and all the neat stuff they've added in the form of upgrades and customizability.

An enemy player can shoot the mines and they blow up. Also enemy engineers can pick up mines.

To add on to this, only explosives, explosive weapons, frag grenades and sniper rifles can take out enemy mines. Normal assault rifles and such won't cut the mustard.

I don't think there is a "best" gun. I suppose you could look at that site that was posted a couple pages back if you want numbers. Personally, I run the A-91 almost exclusively with reflex/grip/suppressor. I see a lot of G53 recently, so maybe there's something there, and there is always somebody running around with the SCAR-H. There's a lot of diversity so you should try a couple rounds with each gun and see how they feel.

Vehicles trigger them only. But that does not mean you wont die if you'Re near one e.g. repairing a tank thats running over one

The bolt-action ones will kill in 2.

ya you gotta aim for their face
recon takes so long to unlock stuff, but I just got the second last sniper and it two-hit kills (one in the face).
looking forward to the last one (m98b or w/e)

also make sure u use ur pistol, i get at least half my kills with it

Ha, this. Headshots and pistols are your friend as a sniper. Always aim for the head, and if you miss and hit the body at anything less than 150 meters, just pull out your pistol and pump a few rounds in for a more sure kill. Just pure good pistol aim will get you plenty of kills vs assaults/engis/etc if it's just one vs one and you shoot first.

Alternatively, you could play Hardcore mode. Bolt-action rifles are OP in that setting.

Easy points due to the high likelihood of 1-hitting. The snipe --> pistol method is even more effective here as well.

Makes unlocking Recon stuff go a bit quicker.

I've fallen in love with the G53 and I'm not afraid to admit it! It's like the scar, but with 11 more shots per clip and a faster ROF.
Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!

so been doing ok so far. lvl 7, some unlocks on the 3 "normal" classes etc.

but need some hints since im totally new to this .

1. how to learn sniping? never played a game with bulletdrop like that before so i suuuck at long ranges. is it just expirience? seems like i have to "lead" a ton at 150m already with the sks, how am i supposed to hit at even bigger ranges without 5+ "test" shots to get approach the target? weird expirience for me totally sucking with a weapon in a fps ~~

2. any tips for spotting enemys? seems like most of the time the one who sees the enemy first wins. guess much of that is learning the maps but still maybe there are some miracle tips ;P

3. for flying, use gamepad or keyboard mouse`? do random pads work or only 360?

/edit also seems like i have no missiles in the jets? am i stupid or am i supposed to get points with the gun?

edit2, seems like the first rifle is much much better at longer ranges... also tried flying with pad, much better. still cant hit anything but i dont randomly fly into hills anymore ~~
life of lively to live to life of full life thx to shield battery
