    In some ways, and in some modes, it's probably better. I've had some pretty good experiences on the PC with Rush in 24 player servers. Rush with 64 is chaos, and TDM really shouldn't even be an option with over 24.

    But you really can't beat the 64 player servers for something like conquest on Caspian or Kharg Island IMO.

      Seems fine to me. In fact, it sounds like it might be more 'manageable' if the maps are the same size LOL.

        I didnt know you can toggle the tac lights.

        People also dont realize that it blinds there own teammates also. I cant count how many times my teammate goes to a corner opposite of me and faces me with the tac light facing right towards me.

          It's true. In the heat of things, many a teammate has been blasted by me because it can be hard to quickly discern friend from foe whilst being blinded. Luckily no death from friendly fire! Easier to shoot when in doubt; teammate will survive, but hesitation can get you killed if you're trying to decide if it's a friendly or not.

          Like Sean Connery's character, Mason, says in 'The Rock', "You musht nevah heshzitate."

However if you used a 600> lumen tac light indoors in the dark it would absolutely destroy your dark adaption. If BF3 was a bit more realistic in this regard your flashlight should really brighten up everything in its path but your peripheral vision should really suffer from lack of dark adaption. Almost like a tunnel affect indoors. I think that would be a fair compromise.

                  That is sad, that a lady would try to plan a date on a BF3 night. Some people.

                    I guess that's better than taking her to the midnight release of MW3.

                        Had an amazing game of Rush earlier where I got stuck with a squad of snipers. It was awesome, I had a screencap copied to the clipboard but I think I overwrote it so here's a recap of the round.

                        Me: You guys know we have to disable the M-Coms right?
                        -No answer-
                        Me: Wtf are you guys sniping? MOVE UP
                        Opposing Team: GG (keep in mind it's the middle of the round)
                        Me: Lmao, GG. It's sad, it really is.
                        Squadmate: eDotd, look at my kills and then look at yours.
                        Me: But we're losing.
                        Me: Awesome job in an losing effort.

                        edit: Also, I don't know what's worse, guys who do absolutely nothing to contribute to the team or guys who complain EVERY time they die. Had a guy earlier on Seine on my team who complained every single time he died. By the end of the round half the team was telling him to STFU.

                          Good video showing what the tact light would look like during day. I am sure there are brighter models but this is just to show it is still slightly over done during day light outside views. Now I do agree they should not change it from a game perspective I think it works.

                          Edit: 4:40 is where he uses light

                              Thats funny. Those guys should be playing a different mode.

                              Every one of my deaths is usually accompanied with a curse word. lol. Is that considered complaining?
