Yeah mines really help my KDR. Same in BC2. I just can't compete as well as many in pure infantry fighting.

Though again, as in BC2, you are only supposed to be able to have 6 or 7 down at once and others should disappear but it seems after you die this gets reset regardless of how many are already deployed. Figure thats a bug so take advantage while you can. :P

Hey Kurgan I noticed you play on Euro servers sometimes and I was curious why given the higher ping. Less tards and better teamwork?

Data Cloud..

Does anyone know how reliable Origin's data cloud is? Or has anyone reinstalled BF3 without loosing all there ranks and challenges?

The reason I am asking is because I know Origin is still goin through some bugs. I would like to perform a fresh install of win7, but I don't want to loose everything. The would suck badly...

That stuff is not stored local it's just in the cloud so I certainly hope it's reliable.

the data is stored much like BC2 was and 2142 and bf2 before it

your stats are fine snapshot you can reinstall the os.

The info is saved on multiple servers which the data is linked to your account / email.

Ranks and such is no problem Re-installed BF3, completely deleting all data for it from the machine, 6 times now, including full downlaods of the app agian. Seems to work fine.


SP though, I dunno.

I will acknowledge that TS3 is a massive improvement over TS2 and is quite good.


And, for the on-topic discussion, I'm really enjoying BF3 so far. I'm only rank 15 at the moment, and I'm usually getting raped but I'm still enjoying the little time I've spent in the game since it came out. I've been quite busy lately
PM me some suggestions please. Where are these free ones?

I agree with all of those except nurfing the stingers. Its so damned hard to hit a jet with one, way not be a one hit kill.

Whatever, as long as my .44 goes back to its beta glory I will live through.

It should be corrected to say either "In BC2..." or "Bad players who play recon...are..."

I play Recon quite often, and spend a good amount of time pushing up and picking people off from the front lines or pushing around them and flanking. Just because some players think Recon has to play from the back with a 12x Scope doesn't mean that's the way it really should be done...

The Tard per Continent Ratio is the same no matter where you go.

I was playing on Euro because Marineborn finally got back from his deployment and he is in the UK with 400k internet, so I have to play on Euro servers with him, since he can't play on US ones. I use to play on Japanese servers with him in BC2, then on Euro servers, and like I said, tard/continent ration wasn't any different on those, only difference was euro's usually talk like they have a stick up their ass(not always though), so ratio might actually be higher there
