I think he meant to fly aircraft.

 

[erixx]

I fly aircraft with my Thrustmaster stick, so what's the prob?

If thats the case then lets just take everything out of the game becasue everything can be exploited.

Theres middleground on everything. I'll flip it and since, don't remove anything at all. There comes a time when you say, ok this just doesn't work right, time to axe it. Looks like you cut your hand, time to cut it off, because the most extreme measures for the smallest cases, is always the best choice.

vehicle guns cant aim that low.

Sure they can, matters what kind of ground your on, uneven ground I will use to angle my tank up to shoot at choppers, or down to shoot at infantry a lot. And if there is someone hiding behind a crate or a dip in the groun, they can't see me, they are hiding scared, they aren't completely aware of where I am or if I'm in the vehicle, I get out and knife them. Best hiding spot vs a tank, is literally hugging the side, because if they get out to kill you, it shows the hotkey to hop in.

sounds like a sex toy.

Lo! Here's a veteran! Nice tip

I love doing that. If I see a guy with C4 running at the tank I'm in and I'm to close to get away and shoot him I will try and jump out to kill him, and run like hell if he hops in. Usually dieing of course. That seems to be what I'm best at

 

[erixx]

Beware not only the enemy. Often my tank is stolen by teammates when I jump out to piss in the woods...

Yeah, thats what I do when I am playing Medic, can't do anything to a tank, so safest spot is literally hugging the thing. They will get nervous and expect that you have an engineer or recon in your squad and they will get out to kill you so those people can't spawn. Then you gank it, push C quick to see what kit they are, if they got C4 jump out and kill them, as they will have their c4 sticks out and be throwing them so cant detonate and you got your gun.

See theres another use for prone! triple knife kills!

 

[1Kurgan1]

Don't need prone for that, they could be standing or hanging upside down, either way they are too busy watching people a long ways away through scopes to pay attention to the guy they don't know are standing behind them. Though it is funny if one of them hears his buddys scream and puts down the scope to look, they get a little jiggly, do a little dance, then get put down, always like that. Knifing Snipers is one of my favorite activities, usually go for the ones who sit on the very edge of the map and don't help their team.

 

[kid41212003]

I like to give them GL or rocket in the face or ass when i'm behind them.

This game is going to suck on PC and you'll barely be able to play it. Consoles are obviously superior in this case. Matchmaking, better pings, etc.

I tend to agree... it is obvious that this game is geared towards consoles and not PC's

Hmm, I wonder if BF3 will offer P2P similar to MW2 do to the issues currently seen in BC2? That's one way to remove the load off EA's backend. Granted that doesn't imply that will be the only option available.

 

[1Kurgan1]

MW2 barely pulled it off with small maps and no vehicles. Imagine a 64 player map thats probably 5 or 6 times larger than a MW2 map, heck I bet maps like Atcama are even that much larger than COD maps. There isn't really issues with BC2, the issue is the latency fixer, which is intended, just it doesn't work how they want it to.

 

[EastCoasthandle]

But that's if BF3 will have at least 64 player servers. It might be between 8-32. Who knows for sure. We assume that it will be 64+ but there's no telling with them.

it bugs me when a DICE developer comes out in October and says "Battlefield 3 (PC) will not be consolized" because he will be giving it the special attention it needs. if Battlefield 3 wasn't built for the consoles from the ground up, why does the PC need any special attention at all?

As the time draws near towards BF3 I am reminded of a post someone made about a year ago:

1. Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free.

2. Product is tested. 20 bugs are found.

3. Programmer fixes 10 of the bugs and explains to the testing department that the other 10 aren't really bugs.

4. Testing department finds that five of the fixes didn't work and discovers 15 new bugs.

5. Repeat three times steps 3 and 4.

6. Due to marketing pressure and an extremely premature product announcement based on overly-optimistic programming schedule, the product is released.

7. Users find 137 new bugs.

8. Original programmer, having cashed his royalty check, is nowhere to be found.

9. Newly-assembled programming team fixes almost all of the 137 bugs, but introduce 456 new ones.

10. Original programmer sends underpaid testing department a postcard from Fiji. Entire testing department quits.

11. Company is bought in a hostile takeover by competitor using profits from their latest release, which had 783 bugs.

12. New CEO is brought in by board of directors. He hires a programmer to redo program from scratch.

13. Programmer produces code he believes is bug-free.

The point being that the #1 must have is a bug free experience. They've had several years to prefect BF3.

I know what you mean and I'm not knocking how they develope the games... it's smart.... how many people have an Xbox and a headset? that = money and a lot of it... console players are not as picky as PC players... PC spend ass tons of money and want a quality game... consoles spend $300 and will play crap games and have fun doing it.
