Battlefield 3

Nah tdm definitely isn't the worst with a bad team. At least you can still do your thing with random spawn points. Rush or conquest you just get camped the entire time.

An-94 is my favorite assault gun, but g3a3 is giving it a run for the favorite. It's great for all ranges especially long fans. Close range isn't a problem considering how fast it fires. Hip firing gets me the kill most of the time.

Also Chizzy are you talking about HK%? That's your headshot/kill.

No he is really talking about hit to kill, 826 hits 214 kills. That is a 26% kill percentage.

@Chizzy Like Mike was saying the rate of fire is decent enough I maintain in close quarters. Granted I tend to do the most work with it in the medium to longer engagements when nothing but snipers can really out gun me. I have also been pairing the gun with a pistol I just started using the G17, mainly for its faster rate of fire I can quickly weapon swap in a close encounter and ripped out a quick semi-auto barrage of pistol rounds. Been doing work with it for sure lately. 38 min carrying and 60 kills not bad.

Tehran Highway this week I went 54-27 with the An-94. The ability to strike in those engagements that other guns get those big penalties for drop offs is the main advantage of the weapon. The one drawback is the 2 round burst which most can't adapt to. It is about really picking your shots and not spamming rounds. If you can learn to control your fire and make each trigger pull count. You are talking massive ownage.

It is a gun centered around accurate precise shooting and using the added perk of bigger damage dealt at range.

You gotta give the 93r a try. It's way too easy to use. I think I'm at a 3.5 kpm with it

That is the full auto pistol like the G18??

It's also a 3shot burst, but it's practically automatic depending how fast you can pull the trigger.

Re: Battlefield 3

I hate the way you see really high level guys.. Like the Level 80's, 90's and so on, and they play like such idiots.. or noobs if you prefer to use that term.

Like, you see a Level 100 and you "Wow, he must be good and play this all the time" and you see them just using grenade launchers or something else stupid, just all the time.

Honestly, I say this about all games. Rank only represents how long you've played a game. And if you ask me, your only really good if A) You have a lot of skill, and B) You don't use noob/cheap tatics. You see loads of high level players just constantly using grenade launchers and stuff.

Not saying players have to take the game really seriously, or view it as being really realistic, but the best players are the ones who will work as a team, use tatics, communicate, and just generally have a lot skill.

That is a pretty beast percentage 434 kills to 2,000 hits for a pistol. I have never got into the automatic pistols. I have stuck with the standard semi-autos. I will give it a shot on my Sniper kit to add a "speed" counter to close engagements.

Re: Battlefield 3

Most of the guys don't play serious in a pub room because there's no need to. The guys I play with, we purposely ease off just to keep the room full. Of course, this does not apply to all public rooms as some actually have competitive players within. The majority do not enjoy losing especially if it's just flat out being dominated.

Also, the grenade launcher is extremely useful for rubble kills.

@phobia you could try out the rex or .44 as those are really good in the right hands.



That's my buddy's top gun overall. I never really heard of the hit to kill ratio until you guys mentioned it, if 494/2000 was good, this is amazing.

I didnt know the GL was noobish *looks at my 8 m320 service stars*.

Really, its hard to kill with it now since the latest patch..

Glad you brought this up.

One thing I have noticed a ton lately. Entire teams of engineers from high level guys. I could not really understand it at first but now I am starting to wrap my head around why.

1) They don't care about their win percentages
2) They only care about their kill to death percentages
3) Engineer weapons don't really have any huge negative since so many maps feature more medium to short engagements that the disadvantage of long engagements don't present themselves as much.
4) It gives them rockets to hurt infantry, tanks, and choppers.

You add these up and they can face pretty much anything on the battlefield. While they won't win many games with this kind of team make up, they will be able to hold their own with pretty much any engagement. I have seen this more and more lately.

Does not bother me because I still do work, not only do I consistently remain in the top 3 on most games. I am also helping my team instead of just looking out for myself.

Re: Battlefield 3

Also Chizzy are you talking about HK%? That's your headshot/kill.

Hits to Kill is a stat that Rival talks about in one of his videos not headshot to kill which is already there. You have to calculate it yourself. Basically you divide your kills/hits. So this stats takes accuracy and headshots somewhat out of the equation and shows you how deadly you are once you get a hit on a person. In Phobia's case 26% of the time he hits someone they drop. It's a cool stat.

I am starting to warm up to the G3a3 also.

Blame Call of Duty friend. It was the view on GL's comes from. In fairness some people use it fairly. It's just those who always use it no matter what. Even at point blank. It's like some of them don't know their gun holds bullets.

Most of the guys don't play serious in a pub room because there's no need to. The guys I play with, we purposely ease off just to keep the room full. Of course, this does not apply to all public rooms as some actually have competitive players within. The majority do not enjoy losing especially if it's just flat out being dominated.

With us it's sort of what mood we're in when playing. Like sometimes we will all come on and just want to kick ***, wipe the floor, and play really well. Sometimes we're on and just pass the time.

I'd say we're in between the Average and Pro gamer. We think of ourselves as being pretty dam good, but we wouldn't ever go into like.. clan tournaments
and all that. We play seriously, but that's the way we enjoy our games and have fun.

Does not bother me because I still do work, not only do I consistently remain in the top 3 on most games. I am also helping my team instead of just looking out for myself.

See now I have combined the two very well. I look out for myself by helping the team and the result is similar to you in that I'm usually in the Top 3. The way I play is quite.. Tactical, most people use that term. Like, I'll check corners, make sure where I'm running to is clear, always try and crouch when shooting, conserve ammo.. All that good stuff.

Combine that with working as a team, so revive, give ammo, cover team mates, hold positions, take out vehicles ASAP, etc. It always ends up with making my stats look good, while still being able to enjoy the game and work as a team.

Of course, some team's are hopeless.. Meaning a lot of Beast Mode is required. :wink:

Re: Battlefield 3

I have a question wonder if anyone else has noticed this.

Flares not working as good since patch??

I can be in a chopper or jet and get locked on, deploy flares moment I hear launch beep in plenty enough time yet every now and then the missile will still make contact.

We were talking about this over the mics couple nights ago because it happened several times. It also was not a chopper launching the second missile delayed after the flares. So I am wondering if there is now a random chance the missile won't take the flare bait?

And I thought it was just me.. Glad you bought this up. :wink:

Last night I switched from flares to ECM Jammer and didn't get hit once. Felt like flares just didn't work any more.

Also, guided missile doesn't work very well on the jet either. Used to work wonders, now it will either hit the target or next to it, but no damage at all...

You talking about the air to ground missile correct?

If so I just had to take it off because it is a waste of a spot, every tank runs smoke basically so unless you can lock a jeep here or there you are basically wasting your launches at tanks.

I ended up going back to heat seekers for jets and just doing most my work on the ground with the machine gun.

Some tips I use

Against choppers
I engage with guns, then slam the after burners straight up into the sky. They can't get a lock or fire due to angle. Then Kill burners and flip jet back towards chopper headed down while holding zero thrust. This can equal to chopper killed in 2 passes 3 max.

Against ground I do exact same thing. If you can learn the height cap before you lose control you can really do some damage coming in with zero thrust low speed gun passes.
