[QUOTE=zenith777;33769491]As a gunner I prefer Thermal sights instead of Flares. With Thermal the gunner is way more effective in spotting and taking out enemies. Good pilot should be able to survive with manouvers and his flares.[/QUOTE]
Thermal is amazing, but if I had to chose between dying due to the lack of flares or thermal, there's no choice really. Sure, a good pilot on some maps when half the enemy team doesn't have stingers would be fine, but often times the maps don't have a lot of cover and everyone has a stinger. I guess for me it's a matter of better safe than sorry.
[QUOTE=Ghost101;33769501]Man I haven't played this in forever, how is Back to Karkand?[/QUOTE]
The maps make it feel a lot more like a Battlefield game and the destruction is what it should have been like from the start (although, there's still room for improvement).
[QUOTE=DaMastez;33769391]Just an idea, but what if it wasn't just a carrier, but a small fleet; ground forces would need to capture missile silos to sink the supporting ships (because, otherwise you would be shredded by their guns) then you would need to board the carrier, blow through reinforced doors and shutdown the nuclear reactor powering the ship (or in some other way gaining control of it). [b]The reason the missiles couldn't just be used to sink the carrier is because you don't want to contaminate the area with irradiated material.[/b]
But, I would rather just have BF2143 (and not as an expansion, but a full blown game)[/QUOTE]
The missiles in 2142 keep firing on the titan's hull after the shield has been depleted providing a stalemate solution if the defense is simply too good. As for attacking the core after the panels have been destroyed, it might be an idea to have it only be susceptible to explosives (c4, RPG, grenades etc) as 2142's method of filling it with bullets ended up becoming a spamfest for both teams. Apart from disabling the carrier (there should always be a huge explosion at the end of titan games) the rest of what you said is great

I never have a problem with hitting targets without thermal - if anything, I find it more effective. I always take flares and use them in combo with teammates over VOIP (ideally, otherwise if I'm not in direct comms I just pop them on the second sequential lock & fire)
[QUOTE=Jackald;33769130]Also, anyone wanna hop in the facepunch server? IT'S SO LONELY IN HERE.[/QUOTE]
Got a link?
[QUOTE=Daniellynet;33765672]Not sure.. AFAIK they haven't given us a clear answer, and I doubt they will, since it's EA..

Maybe late post, but.
On the video "Realistic Battlefield 3 experience" (where you had to remove color correction and HUD), one of the video viewers consulted with EA support and they said it is not a bannable offense.
But then, if this color editor works, then I think it will be applied to all the maps, just like the one im using right now which removes all color corrections at all. I don't want to play on tropical-like Karkand or Kharg Island.
Is it just me, but my BF3 isn't launching anymore.
Damnit.

I had forgotten about that, good point. That would make things a lot simpler as you could simply blow up the carrier (which would make more sense anyway) rather than trying to take control of it. The problem with 2142 was there were no other ways to breach the core room, if one panel could be held (and all it took was grenade spam), then there was no way to breach the core. If there were several different ways to breach the core (as in, the defenses had to be spread among several locations) or otherwise win then I think it would work a lot better (for example, you could have blasting through some reinforced doors and blowing up the core, hacking into the system and causing an overload, or simply pounding the ship enough so it sinks, not to mention letting the ground based missile systems go to town).
The more I think about it, the better having to fight through an Iron Gator type carrier (as in, detailed with a lot of confusing hallways) sounds.

There's no way anyone could be on my origin though, I don't get any messages on my e-mail and no one is playing on my BF3 either.

[QUOTE=Wormy;33770930]Not everyone has the flares unlocked, and you can easily get shot before you get the chance to pop the flares again. It's got a very long delay.[/QUOTE]
I'd imagine that by now, most people have the 1000 or so points to unlock flares.
Seriously, it's two vehicle destroys and a couple of kills.
Also 'chance to pop flares again'. I tell people to pop flares after I pop mine.
Then again no-one ever listens. Ever.

[QUOTE=Orkel;33771272]oh cool, PC karkand is out? been taking a break from bf3 so not quite sure of the latest shit[/QUOTE]
Pretty sure its been out for at least a week.
Imma go buy it RIGHT NOW.
I wish chopper HUD had a status for "Pilot flares: (ready/loading)" and "Gunner flares (same shit)"
go to origin after a 1-2 month break, suddenly 3.9 gb update
Replace flares with extinguisher / ECM etc when necessary
btw, how's the MP5 in karkand?
[QUOTE=Orkel;33771333]btw, how's the MP5 in karkand?[/QUOTE]
It's fun.
IMO the accuracy on it is insane.
It's accurate but pretty weak. The other engineer weapons are just better.
Don't you guys mean the G53?
