I cannot play SP on my cruncher for some reason. Maybe its due to using the copy folder method of install but when I try to start a SP game it loads the level the I get BF3 has stopped working box. I can play Multiplayer fine but SP is a no go.

Dunno if im just crap at the game but i seem to die a lot from one hit kills and up close. Im finding it easy to get assists but the mouse feels weird and i had to tone down the sensitivity. Its going to take a while to get used to the mouse in BF3 for me personally; im using a SteelSeries Kinzu but i wish i had side buttons.

Had to take a break from Skyrim. Only really had 2 or so hours on BF3 but im liking it if i can get the aiming down.

The starting weapons are crap lol.

The M16 is the only thing that got me off the ground when I started. the AK74 SUX!

Here are a few Factors the Recon class should remember.

When sniping, there are 3 main factors to remember to get that head-shot or kill.

1: Distance
2: Time to Target (T2T)
3: Elevation


Distance: How far away the target is from you.
Time to Target: How long it takes for the round to reach the target.
Elevation: How far above or below you the target is.

Who just sniped a guy out of a heli..... I DID! thats what he gets for flying low and letting his gunner mow people down. I took him out and when the chopper crashed cause there was no pilot the gunner died!

What got me off the ground was tanks then the stinger then mines before people had a lot of experience and unlocks. Though I caught on to the awesomness of the AA tanks a little late partly cause hard to get one.

Factors and Tactics for Recon class to remember.

1. You are not a Sniper. You are Recon.
2. Your first priority is to the safety of your team, make sure they always know where the enemy around them are located.
3. Kill people they don't/can't see or guys that are looking toward you.
4. You should always be the last to move into flag.
5. If you squad is wiped out, you should not engage unless you are 100% sure you can clear and neutralize the flag on your on. If there is a chance you cannot, relocate and wait for backup.
6. Always remember to use the appropriate camo.
7. YOU ARE NOT A SNIPER!

Only problem is I didn't kill a single person with the mounted minigun on the chopper. I can spot the crap out of people though.

It is the class with all the high powered rifles and the SKS. It is also the class with all the cool cameras.

New Battlefield Blog Post: Going Back to Karkand #5: Gameplay from Strike at Karkand, Assignments Explained

11/18/11 | By HBrun

Today, we have a brand new gameplay trailer from the reimagined Strike at Karkand map! Also, read on to find out how our new Assignments in Back to Karkand extend the persistence in Battlefield 3.



We hope you enjoy our new gameplay trailer with footage from Strike at Karkand. With the enhanced destruction in the Back to Karkand expansion pack, this all-time classic map has never looked or played better. For a trip down memory lane with the designer of the original Strike at Karkand map, see this earlier blog post.

10 all-new Assignments extend the persistence
The Back to Karkand expansion pack is much more than just maps. We are also adding a new layer of persistence in the form of ten Assignments. These will be tracked no matter if you play a base game map or expansion pack map, and add a new way to unlock things in the game.


The ten Assignments add a new layer of persistence. Click for full resolution image.

Let’s take a closer look at the “Let it Rain” Assignment. To complete this assignment, players must score 20 kills with Light Machine Guns and two mortar kills. The game will keep track of how far along you have come to fulfill it. When you have met the requirements, you will unlock a new Back to Karkand weapon (with a matching set of dog tags) to use on any map including the base game. You will also unlock the new Creeping Death Assignment.

As with all of the Assignments introduced in Back to Karkand, you can keep building towards these no matter if you play on regular maps or maps from the new expansion pack itself. Your regular persistence will also be intact and keep building up no matter what map you play – Back to Karkand is in this way completely integrated into the base game, including the ability to have a map rotation mixing base game maps with Back to Karkand maps.


The all-time classic map Strike at Karkand has never looked or played better.

Come back next week for more details on Back to Karkand. We have more videos coming your way, as well as more details on the new vehicles, weapons, and more.

As always, if you pre-ordered your copy of Battlefield 3: Limited Edition, you are entitled to Back to Karkand at no extra charge and will be notified in-game once it is available for download and play in December. Anyone can buy it on the launch day for $14.99/1200 Microsoft Points, or the equivalent in their local currency. PlayStation 3 players will have exclusive 1 week early access to Back to Karkand.

New Battlefield Blog Post: Incoming: Battlefield 3 update!

BY: HBrun POSTED : Nov 18, 2011, 07:33AM

The DICE team are hard at work supporting Battlefield 3. To date, we have implemented several server updates to improve stability and performance. Next week we are publishing a significant Battlefield 3 client update for the PC. Console patches take a bit longer due to the certification requirements for console content, but it will follow shortly after the PC update.

So what’s in the PC patch? You’ll see improved polish, stability, weapons balancing, squad control functionality, user interface enhancements, and several feature enhancements that address feedback the community has provided to date – plus we’re removing the so called “negative mouse acceleration” that some of you have experienced.

Regarding cheating and boosting, we continue to analyze data to identify and hold accountable (ban, wipe stats) players that cheat or boost. We’ve received questions about what to do when faced with unsportsmanlike conduct in Battlefield 3 – the best course of action is to click the warning sign next to their profile name in Battlelog, or head to the EA Help Desk and report your issue. These leads will enable us to follow up on the report.

We appreciate all the feedback. Keep it coming to help us with future improvements. Check back next week to confirm the patch launch date and the detailed fix list. Thanks for playing and sharing your feedback with us!

Well a close friend of my family's was shot and killed in my hometown yesterday by a bank robber and my Cali family is reeling in pain. What a fucking waste.
The guy had nothing but hope for this hellhole and did everything he could to make it better just to end up going out like this.
You want to love your place you were raised , but this City doesn't allow it. Rest in Peace Jim

Add: And if you're under lvl 30, you shouldn't play Recon .

I already maxed out my Engi and now im getting my 4th service star... I had to play Engi because all the tards thought they can kill tanks with bullets.

It hurts me so much when a lvl 10 play Recon.

Engineer is probably the best class to lvl up... Jesuz Christ... people should play Engineer more.

EDIT: Check out my epic headshot at 286.92M (with the USAS12).

So yes the class with all the sniper rifles shouldn't snipe ?

[MxPhenom 216]

anyone else have trouble with battlelog not loading in their browser

[cadaveca]

works fine here.

[kid41212003]

I just checked. No problem.

You are correct. As I stated, you first duty is surveillance. The rifle is for clean up and killing people your squad can't/don't see. You are not helping anyone being a lone wolf out in the middle of nowhere important picking off one or two guys here and there. Your handful of long distance kills may get you decent points, but doesn't help your team one bit.
