[QUOTE=PyroCraz3d;34440482]So I bought BF3 today, a used version. Thinking it was the same exact thing as a new BF3, I was happy that I saved 15 bucks and bought myself Halo 3 with it. Unfournately, when I tried to play online, it told me I needed an online pass. I have to pay 10 more dollars to this greedy fucking company to play ONLINE, the best feature of a FPS? I looked it up, and one of the developers of the game said that "servers cost money to run, you dont get money from used copies." , okay DICE/EA/whoever the fuck made this game, fuck you. Next thing you know, I'll have to pay 10 dollars an hour just to have the game put in my xbox 360.[/QUOTE]
Sounds like a personal problem.
[QUOTE=woolio1;34437998]Okay, quick question: How much larger are the maps on PC vs Consoles?[/QUOTE]
The maps aren't bigger, its the amount of players within the maps that increase.
I got so mad a few minutes ago on bf3 we were on Karkand and we are getting raped the whole time but the funny thing is they left us one spawn then they all got around it and killed everyone who spawned...lav and Abrams spam errywhere. I raged then left.

How I quit BF3 in a nutshell.
Yeah, this is definitely a game I'll have to get for PC somewhere down the line. 64 player combat on some of these maps sounds amazing, and I'm guessing there are community servers as well.
For now, however, the PS3 version is sufficient.
the funny thing is I prefer playing on 32 player servers
64 player servers end up feeling a bit clusterfucked in a lot of situations, 32 player servers feel a lot more tactical in my opinion.
I still like playing on 64 player servers when I get a chance but there really needs to be some sort of auto-balance mechanic that the game is really missing at the moment, end up losing by couple hundred tickets really often
Yeah, it feels like less and less games are including features to appropriately balance the teams. It results in one team just rolling the other constantly till the game is over. Then everyone piles onto that team next game so they can win and the cycle repeats.
I like 32 man servers more too. You're right that it just feels more tactical. There's less people getting shot in the back as they're shooting someone else in the back.
Can somebody explain to me why whenever I try to play co-op with a friend, it tells me the game was cancelled?
We just can't seem to connect together.

I hate playing as sniper. I suck at it, and its to slow for me.. but I got to get this service star.
I got an avenger medal, an achievement? Yes/No?

Same exact thing happens to me. Blame dice.

Take the scope off your rifle and go big game hunting. Long range engagements are for pansies.
also I said it a few pages back, but once again.. I really wish they hadn't cut out the supression mechanic that was in the beta. The new suppression system is a bit silly because it relies on someone else killing that enemy and you only get 50 points. The old system was better as you could get points for suppressing while your team/squad mates made a run for it, which made it feel much more tactical... maybe it could have used with a point nerf but not relying on the enemy to die

actually fuck that the G3A3 with the holographic sight is [img]http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/emoticons/emot-flashfap.gif[/img]
anyone else notice how the vehicle layouts on the maps are built for 24 players?

My mission after unlocking everything on the M416 is to build a sniper G3 and pretend its a PSG-1.
Bipod, heavy barrel, and 6x scope should be nice.
[QUOTE=hexpunK;34437896]You'd love me then. I think by this point I'm mostly C4, or at least, the human embodiment of C4's want to blow things up.[/QUOTE]
That would geniunly be funny... just see a guy with C4 all over his body or atleast some parts run and jump onto a tank and just get stuck.
Kinda like this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofV_iFBw2YE[/media] but obviously sticks to it...
Aw goddammit. Spent a few hours playing with my friend. One of my goals was to get my knife service star.
I get out of the game now and see this:

That's what I do usually with my M416! Most likely going to do the as you for the G3A3 now. Exciting!
Metro 64 can get pretty fun if you don't rush like an idiot and stay behind shooting grenades and laying down ammo/first aid packs.
Its increadibly annoying to get killed by M320's all the time and I'm sort of sad that I do it with a smile, but its the best way to get a multikill without having to raise your head and risking getting a bullet through your head.
Being on the russian side is awesome because you rush down the escalators, look left, throw or launch a grenade and you might kill a bunch of the marines laying fire on the side stairs.
But goddamn I already hate the USAS, but I shouldn't talk much because I use the undermounted M320 to no end :v:
But the best part is probably when someone somehow caps the cafe point without capping the ticket hall, being able to spawn behind the russians and knifing them in the back. That alone won me 3 knife kills the first time I did it and 3 or 4 more the rest of the times. Felt like a ninja with that finisher knife slash.
And half the kills with automatic weapons end up in headshots because of the recoil. Fun fun fun.

Does the heavy barrel give any cosmetic changes?

How to win metro: smoke grenades
I'm having a serious fucking problem with this game that I wasn't about a week ago, it's making the game completely unplayable.
I join the game and my fps is somewhere around 40-60 depending on where I am. Then when I'm running and looking around, my fps drops to what I think is 20s and gets really laggy and stuttery. As I look around, people are flashing into existence and lagging everywhere.

9/10 that just leads to more grenade or M320 spam.
