Played my first hour or so of mulitplayer tonight on this server

Everything just seems so random, there was no sense of urgency, the maps felt insanely large.
Also is there a mode I can play where everyone has the same equipment? Like a tournament style mode?
EDIT: Just to be clear, I REALLY REALLY WANT to like this game, I didn't spend 60$ on it just to bash it. The single player was fun, but extremely short.
there's plenty of urgency in the game, especially in rush mode. I can understand how in conquest a new player would feel lost, but once you familiarize yourself with the interface and maps you should get it.
Some tips for conquest:
Stick with your squad (green nametags)
Stay close to objectives, whether you're attacking or defending. On some maps certain objectives are more remote and will see less action.
When you die, examine your options on where to spawn. You can spawn on any objective that your team controls, the starting base (where most heavy vehicles spawn), and squad mates/leaders(depends on map settings). You don't want to spawn too far away from the action.
Only play large conquest if the server has at least 32 people.
Overall conquest pub games are very random. You have plenty of choices on how you want to play.

If you want to learn the map play a team deathmatch with insta respawns. Its rly good to learn spots

Agreed if he had no clue what he was doing at all. Then idk what to tell him. I haven't played a BF game in like 5years and I knew in about 5min what I was supposed to do and accomplish. 5 points on the map, control them to win.

any chance of you switching it to HC once in a while?
|
conquest in bf3 is kind of lame, its all like rush to get the flags. There used to be maps where one side controlled all the flags and the other team would have to "invade" ala a conquest
I'm liking rush more and more, hectic play is fun :D

you need to get a balance of staying in a good position and getting objectives. Running around like a madman is only getting you killed, staying in your secretz spots the whole game makes you contribute nothing towards victory.
But there is nothing wrong in anticipating an enemy assault and staying in a good spot until its resolved.

This. I had to wrap my head around this as well, still have to sometimes :D but I'm getting there.
Sticking with your squad, or at least a few teammembers helps a lot too I found, if you always run off solo and bump into three of them it's game over, with some friends nearby you can back eachother up. You might still get killed but with your squad around you can respawn at the same place, or even get rezzed.

Same happened 2 times earlier to me, no idea why.

Were going to mess around with rush a bit, because after looking at nearly every Team Liquid members profiles, noone has any rush ribbons at all. lol.
|
It says disconnected from loginserver, as opposed to disconnected from server that I occasionally had the past week. And those disconnects only happened between games, now they happen during which sucks massively bc you lose all your progress from that game 
|
maybe your overseas connection gets rerouted, which prevents you sending data to the server for like 10 seconds. I have that in league of legends when i play on US Servers,
|
Could be, but still it's weird that it only started today then. But last few maps went ok so let's hope it stays like that

I'm not a huge fan of rush (understatement there :p) but those games on Damavand where pretty cool wouldn't mind it if we switched it around for an evening every now and then. That hangar on the third stage is pretty damn hard to break as attackers. Basejump rocks.

i am really torn, on the one side its funnier to play with you because you arent huge douches who heli drop on the antenna with the biggest sniperrifle you can find (or similar things), on the other hand i die in every straight up shooting cause of 0.5 seconds delay.

I just applied to join the 3rd platoon, name is 31i73 
I won't be able to play until my new graphics card arrives though, which should be in a day or so.

just applied for 3rd platoon as Jand0s

Ok guys. Lots of fun updates!
Votekick/voteban is now enabled. To activate, use the following command: !votekick Player reason
To vote: !vote yes/no
You need 60% yes's to remove someone. 80% to ban.
Also!
Team Autobalancer is now active. If the teams are off by 2 or more, it will give 3 warnings, and then automatically switch the last joined player over.
Also!
Killstreak announcer is now active. If you get 5+ kills in a row, and every kill after, you will be announce with a bounty to the rest of the server. This is recorded for later bragging rights, and also, whoever kills the killstreaker gets an announcement as well, and is recorded.
We now record "Most killstreaks (5+), highest killstreak, and most assassinations (killed the streaker).
Fun fun
