@XxPURESHADOWxX Don´t worry. We have forgotten about Xbox. No ETA right now.
I wonder how many people tweeted him pointing out his spelling mistake.
It's been so long this passed into myth, can't believe im actually going to see it happen in my lifetime.
[quote]-Guided Rockets will now only track ground targets, as originally intended.[/quote]
Fucking yes. That made flying almost impossible for me, i was constantly locked on the whole time, made flying a pain in the ass.
I guess it's good it's finally coming out, hopefully crushing some of the gamekilling bugs and glitches that have been known about since the week of release. Really not digging the balance decisions though. Nerfing things that are weak and leaving strong designs alone isn't the way to go.
We should get an origin RSS news bot so we can get updates on bf3 and other PC games that are exclusive to origin
Looks like the commo-rose will actually be useful now. It only took 5 months.

Anyway, can not wait for this patch.
I love to snipe but with no explosive I don't use the recon class.
I use the engineer with a G53 (12x scope / foregrip / heavy barrel)
This is really good at sniping all ranges (I am not a camper) and in this patch it actually makes it even more better. The heavy barrel is going to make this guns bullets faster and just general more accuracy thanks to heavy barrel + other stuff on the gun its self and foregrip. I though they would of nerfed it not made it better.
[QUOTE] -G53: Reduced recoil and drift, recoil settle times now similar to other carbines. The HK53 is a short carbine with a lot of initial kick but a stable recoil pattern and a medium rate of fire. The changes give it more character compared to the G36. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE] The Vertical Recoil penalty of the Heavy Barrel has been reduced. The value has been changed from a global percent increase to a weapon specific value. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE] Several weapons with low default bullet speed now have their bullet speed increased when the Heavy Barrel is equipped. This is in effect for the A91, G3A3, AKS-74u, G36C, M4A1, SCAR-H, SG553, G53, and QBZ-95B. [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE] The Heavy Barrel is now also paired with Match Rounds which increase the maximum range of the weapon. The minimum and maximum damage are unchanged, weapons with the Heavy Barrel will be more effective in mid range. [/QUOTE]

Wait, does that mean Anti-Air RPG's (The Stinger and the Russian One) Won't work anymore? Because i'm pretty sure those are soley for anti-air IRL.

The jet and helicopter air to ground rockets can lock on to air vehicles, the patch will fix it so they can only target ground vehicles.
Oh and for those that don't know the G53 makes a good sniper without the foregrip or the heavy barrel and this is beofre patch. with those on it is amazing with the patch it will be unbelievable. This is also not normally a sniper it is just the best gun that is not a shotgun that can be converted to snipe.

The commarose and the minimap look delicious.
I don't know why I keep hoping fruitlessly that they will change iron sights to actually work.
Make the iron sights accurately reflect the recoil of the weapon.
A lot of good changes otherwise though.
Great patch. Finally no more waiting for 8 players.
It better fix my CtD issues
I hope it brings performance improvements.
I'm hoping it fixes the game crashing on startup for me.
Haven't been able to play BF3 for months because of that.
Double bonus for me, I get my brand new G500 tomorrow as well!
I'm so happy that today was my last day of spring break.
I still don't have BF3, but seeing the effort they put into these huge patches just makes me want it more.

Did they fix the Q button yet?
Hey a map update!

Thanks Dice!
They removed the 12x scope from the G53 and I am really mad. They made the gun more accurate but I would rather they set it back to how it was. No explosives for recon and now no 12x scope for engi stop screwing me over DICE.

What real reason is there for having a 12x scope on engineer weapons? You should be fairly frontline, fixing vehicles and laying traps for enemy vehicles. Not shooting fucks at such a range that you [I]need[/I] a 12x to accomplish the task.

I know most people don't understand this play style as it is hard to picture but.
I do get in close the G53 is perfect at close range without looking down sight and I win almost all of my encounters. Mid range is easy and this just makes it even easier for the longest of ranges.
It really is an effective play style and I often come top ripping apart the enemy team because of this.

The problem people like you have is you think just because I am running around as engi I have to be doing engi things. No servers I have been on restrict you to a limited amount of engineers so it makes no difference if I am sniping as recon or engi. I like to take down vehicles and kill infantry at all ranges.
I can effectively hold an objective on conquest by myself from enemy air tanks and men all on my own. This style is massively underestimated.

That's because that's kind of the point of Battlefield - to play your role.

I can understand why people play that kind of style. I used to do it on occasion in BC2 because it can be quite effective and does throw the enemy off. But it isn't a core part of the engineer role. You'd lose the ability to fight armour as easily, but I'd expect this kind of playstyle to suit a marksman style Recon or Assault more.
