Re: Battlefield 3

Am I the only one who literally gets 3-5 suicides a game? That may be an exaggeration, but it most certainly feels like I suicide a whole lot! I guess I just make dumb decisions or something, but half of my deaths are usually suicides. Fatleg has witnessed a couple of my own. I just didn't think being at 77% health and jumping off the 2nd floor of a construction building would kill me. How often does the body of a chopper fly right at me after blowing it up myself?

That's happened to me a few times. Not even on a second floor.

I'll be on one of those boulders in Caspian Border, just like you with 77% life...Jump down...Crossbones. LOL

Mike, you're a great player. I think the game is just trying to balance you out.

You're probably right. That seems like a pretty sound explanation to me.

I wish i could play with you PS3 guys. It seems like all the xbox guys are playing Skyrim or MW3.

Re: Battlefield 3

It happens to me too. I'll just be standing somewhere and next thing you know.. Bad Luck.

I don't even know what killed me but sometimes I am standing in fire like an idiot.

yeah happens on the PC version as well...I'm going through a door then I'm dead and I have no idea how..

EDIT:
Back to Karkand arriving Dec. 6 PS3 then PC/360 arrives Dec. 13

+1 on the standing in fire bit...

One thing I kinda wish this game had is a quick replay of how you were killed from the perspective if your assassin. Not necessarily from first person. I'm not sure if this is a no no in first person shooters online.

When I die, my three usual responses are "How did I not kill him?", "Where the hell did he come from?", and "Was he really able to aim (with perfect precision) that quickly? I mean really? There's no way"

So I think a replay system will be helpful in that regard.

The replay system really ruins it for one class, imo: Snipers. I'm glad I transitioned to the hardcore game mode since the majority of them have the kill cam disabled, making it harder for people to figure out where you're sniping from.

I agree once the match is over. But not during the match.

Re: Battlefield 3

Anyone ever use Claymore mines?

I have been working on my support class lately and I unlocked these mines. I like'em.

It's nice to plant one at the opposite doorway from you and be prone waiting to ambush someone coming in from the other side and BOOM....enemy killed without you even firing a shot...LOL

They also let you know infantry might be in the area behind you.

On 360 we got a group of buddies that play almost every night. We get in party chat and make up a squad or squads depending how many we got.

I use them often on Metro to defend B bomb. You can throw out your ammo crate and resupply and you can plant 2 clays. Just so you know.

Re: Battlefield 3

Haven't checked my stats in a while. Nothing great, nothing bad, middle of the pack. As you can see by my assault score, I play the medic very often and keep our squad revived and pressing forward.

Re: Battlefield 3

Not to sound all uppity and what not...

It's a little bothersome to me to have people called idiots and losers just because they aren't as good at the game as some of you all are. I understand that it might be frustrating. Totally get that. There's always going to be less skilled players than some of you. But that doesn't make them idiots.

I consider myself a pretty good basketball player. When I play a game of pick up and have a guy on my team that isn't at my level, I don't think any less of him. They may make a few mistakes while playing with me. But that's fine and something I'm OK with as long as their trying their darndest.

I think it's a little much to expect every player to be as skilled as some of you are is all.

Re: Battlefield 3
