[QUOTE=Gravity Ponds;34340220][B]Tip for everyone:[/B]
Get friends that play BF3 well, and only play with a friend
I refuse to enter pub servers "solo" in BF3.. You cant really trust the average joe players.
I was playing the other day on Rush, broke through with my squad of 3 randoms, got behind the enemy, I killed about 4 or 5 enemies, the 1 left, spins around, kills my 3 squad mates..
Your friends don't even have to be that good if you talk over TeamSpeak, just having that communication gives you the upper hand[/QUOTE]
I used to be able to do this near launch, but no nobody plays on my 40+ friends list.
I've had a couple of people add me in the past month or so... but they are never on either so I never play with other people. Or if they are, they aren't playing (doesn't help though that battlelog doesn't work in game). I wish I could play with people again because its a lot of fun, but nobody is ever on and the few people that have added me recently never play/are on or never have anything going except just playing solo
:(
EDIT: Also got killed by an engineer yesterday shooting his A-91 (LMAO WUT A PRO) at me, missing all his shots because I am behind cover (but badly damaged) and then two seconds later die from an RPG round he fired.
Stay classy OP enginneer builds, stay classy. I just love how they pretty much dominate any combat situation with their combo of mines, RPG's, and one of the easiest cheese-win guns in the game.
There is literally almost no point from a "play to win" perspective for the other classes, since only the engineer can literally dominate all playstyles except sniper. They have weapons for any situation, and their only "downside" is a lack of dealing with things at very large ranges but hey... not really a downside when you can just take cover your whole way to the objective. Assault is basically engineer without any anti-vehicle or explosion weaponry (but can revive teammates), support is basically engineer except without the rocket launcher and must rely on C4 to do anti-vehicle (which is good mind you), and recon just does anti-personell at a range (even though your biggest threat is always going to be vehicles).
I dunno, all their classes have their place I guess. But it just irrates me that engineer has a "better" place or a "higher place" compaired to other classes. It's pretty much the garunteed-cheese-win class, you get the best guns in the game and can deal with the most dangerous threats. They are just super easy to play as and win with, and they aren't very balanced compaired to the other classes.
And the worst part? It will never be fixed because you can't exactly totally rebalance enginner weapon unlocks and how they work and have them all pretty much be SMG's (which they SHOULD have) now that everyone's spent time unlocking stuff for them. Downside to a persistant stat system - rebalancing is impossible with patches without completely breaking the stats. We're basically stuck with enginneers having pretty damn good weapons along with the SMAW/RPG because that was the foundation they laid.
IMO the best way to fix enginners would be to simply make them short-range only, with shotguns and SMG's as their specility. It's fucking rediculous that they pretty much get the same teir weaponry as assault (who should have med-range assault rifles), when they have their missile launchers as well. If enginners pretty much had stuff like the MP7 or other PDW's as their high level unlock it would be insanely more balanced, because now your main gun is more or less not designed to take care of threats beyond a short range.
Funny... I mostly play engineer and I think all of the engineer guns are incredibly inaccurate, high-recoil bullet hoses. Especially the A-91.

I'd have to say about 65% of my deaths from a mostly recon/support player were from enginners exclusively. I've been killed pretty effectively from their weapons at most ranges, not to mention their ability to counter the deadliest things in the game unlike any other class (vehicles).
They are the most survivable class by far. You can deal with almost any situation single-handedly, and you pretty much have the best weaponry in the game for those situations you can deal with. It's like they are the only class that isn't a "class" - they pretty much can excell at all roles except very long range engagements.
Engineer is the class to play if you go solo. Assault isn't really supposed to magically just win fights against engineers since they [I]both have guns which are equally as deadly[/I]. The thing separating them is the equipment as it should, the ability to heal and revive or destroy vehicles. 1 assault + 1 engineer in teamspeak will dominate.

Most of my friends either don't have a good enough computer, don't have the game, or don't want to play at the time I do, which is a shame.
Also, what server are people playing on? Solo on public sucks.
I agree with the Engineers being a ridiculously unbalanced class and I can't believe DICE hasn't done anything about it yet.
I mean it's pretty obvious something is unbalanced when 90% of a team is always the same class out of four.

Engineer + support + recon is the best. Unlimited SOFLAM javelins. :v:
Anyone wanna play?
I have no friends to play with. :smith:
they shoulda kept engineer and anti-tank seperate some how
that or give assaults disposable AT launchers like the RPG18 and M136/AT4
[QUOTE=Vallux;34341003]I just love the RPG-7. Javelin sucks balls, with all the locking on.[/QUOTE]
Yeah but like today, 2-3 SOFLAM's in WAY different positions, little-to-NO communication obviously between pilot/gunner, and oh Javelin. And again..
Recon would be good if they would have c4 like in BF2142
What's with all the Javelin hate? I love it!
Made this for that Only in Battlefield thing.

If any of you guys encountered a guy holding a grenade moving around like an idiot with 30 deaths, sorry bout that.
[QUOTE=Mindfuck 2;34340470]I made some good friends over a random server i joined. They only play on this server, as me now, and we team up perfectly. We communicate well like "i need a gunner"-"Pick me up at A"-"In a second."
It's really fun playing like this.[/QUOTE]
I often get into an attack chopper and before taking off tell my team that "I'll try to hang back a bit and stay alive as long as possible. If you encounter a tank, another helicopter, or a couple enemy squads, just say you need 'air support at A, B, C, etc' and I'll be there ASAP"
Not the most point efficient system, but it makes me feel badass and helpful :buddy:

That's so good I wouldn't be able to tell if it were an official DICE BF3 trailer or a fan made trailer.

Yeah just went like 27-4 with Javelins off the TV tower.. Got a support with us too :v:

Holy shit that's amazing.
Agh wtf dice. Playing fine, game crashes now I get "BF3 has stopped working" everytime I enter a server, or co-op or campaign.
Fixes tried:
Repair install
Disable hyperthreading
Run in admin mode
Update drivers
Delete windows temp
Restarted PC/Origin
Tried different browser.
What the fuck do I do now?

That.. was awesome. Please, do more.
That part with the crashing helicopter was awesome.
Playing Support on large maps is hilarious. C4 mixes very well with jeeps and the nicely destructible environment.
We should do something like that with FP.
Im itching for more DLC
