I think i might just give up on air vehicles they are so pointless at this point. Everyone else just shoots me down within seconds. jets a useless without air to ground bombs



Whats the point of them, when you cant get a god damn kill like me to even unlock flares.

Got to Rush Caspain server,They have the A10 warthog on that map and they own with cover fire over the m-coms.

Its my friends birthday today and hes pretty sure his grandma got him Battlefield 3. My friend is the biggest Call of Duty fanboy boy i know and i told him last night that its going to be different and your going to die a lot till you learn. He was like well thats stupid every game should allow noobs to get kills easily. I said you can just use the rockets lol, however not every game should be easy. Games should have a learning curve to them that adds to the fun, Like Battlefield 3. He was like Battlefield 3 is too realistic = fun. But its really not too realistic, you just have to know how to play.

Yep, their support is slow, I ended up canceling through them. Was just worth it to spend $15 more and get it now than wait for them to take ages to respond.

I think they are fine, just order far ahead. They don't have the staff for how many keys they got. Took them 3 days to respond to my emails. So I sent them one, three days later they respond, I respond I want it canceled, 3 days later they respond. The first email wasn't asking to cancel, but since they took so long to respond, I just canceled it as I wouldn't have got it by release.

I'm up for dedicated gunner and i've got flairs too. It seems I'm always flying solo with the attach helicopter too, and its hard to dodge all the lock ons. I really dig the Little bird and V11, or whatever its called, they are so agile and fun to fly.

Sounds like a plan. not sure if i have you on my friends list.. same name in game add me if i havent already. and if you got a mic were in business

as for spawning and capping flags, you can thank DICE for there short attention span with the spawn points,

on Grand Bazaar Flag B has just 2 spawn points a single 4 man squad can lock that down making it a kill fest, there is pretty much Spawn Point A (if spawn point A is under heavy use Spawn at Spawn Point B, and thats it the game dosent bother to check for enemy soldier locations etc anymore, so in that regard BC2 was superior.

Ive been rocking the air streams alot since Release. Logging over 6 hours in just the attack helicopters. i fly when i can and use Flares Heat Seekers and either Stealth or Air Radar. Really helps having a gunner with flares. if i had a constant gunner i could be up the entire game and racking up a higher kill count/SPM. other then that im mainly Support M429 500+Kills now :D look forward to gaming with you guys more often

I gun with flares. I would't mind being a dedi gunner for you sometime.

Is there a way to tell how far away a target is that you are shooting at as Recon? Can I use the SOFLAM for that? Or is the SOFLAM only for Vehicle spotting? Also, does anyone have the distance markers for the 12x Ballistic Scope? I managed to snag a 658m headshot on Caspian by pure luck that the idiot stayed in one place even though I shot at him.

Alright, added you, sounds like you got a couple of gunners ready to help out now. I'm trying to get better at flying, and wish i could find constant gunners to help out.

my friend consensus of BF:

Guns suck(shooting is horrible, and sound the same) and they look like card board.

You need smarter friends. I don't think there's such a thing as "carb board".

I guess your friends have never shot real guns before. Meh, I don't care, I don't think many here find someone's "friends" as credible or relevant. :ohwell:
