Re: Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion

Hey buddy on what lvl one can unlock the 2x sight, Cobra? And guns like M416 or AEK? I'm a long time player of BF series.

I exactly dont remember when they were unlocked. But you can look for the next unlock on each of the kits.

Also to add on what RCuber has already mentioned (brilliantly put buddy), avoid using guns like AN94 (high damage if aimed right and used in burst) if you already know it from BF BC2 as this gun has a steep learning curve and need for highly accurate aim to pull off kills in couple of burst (burst of 3 bullets each time).

There are couple of semi automatic guns in sniper rifle kit which are fun to "run and gun", like SKS. You can couple them with a 3.4x scope (for little long range) and go bersk running and gunning with hip shots (you do not need to use your scope to take the hits while running and gunning and its difficult that way with SKS) except for some long range shots. ---- Only applicable for "experienced newbies and intermediate level players".

Suppressor is a crap, specially on snipers and its useful only when u need extreme cover and do not want to be spotted from your hideouts (BF3, unlike BF BC2, doesnt have many hideouts that arent spottable) as suppressor not only supress your bullet sound it also suppress the bullet speed there by reducing chances of a hit with snipers on long range.

Celebrate gamescom week with 2XP in BF3 - The double XP event starts August 21 at 2AM PST / 11 AM CEST and ends on August 26, 120 hours later.
2.30pm IST

Tip for newbies - In close matches, dont drive tank, let a higher ranked drive. If you got in first in tank, then press "F2" to switch to gunner seat.

While in Gunner seat, in any vehicle, DONT SHOOT RANDOMLY. Because whenever you shoot, you are automatically spotted on enemy map, easier for their air vehicle/tank/javelin/soflam to kill you.

Always aim & shoot at enemy head.

The usual server we play at - Conquest maps

Always aim & shoot at enemy head.

I would like to defer here.. Aiming at head is not a viable option for a newbie in FPS multiplayer as before he/she could even lock an aim on the head, he will see his enemy kill cam :p

the thumb rule in any of the MP FPS games (right from CS era) is that, if u arent sharp with your aim, dont look for a head shot, aim the body and shoot.

If head shot takes 2 to 3 bullets to kill, body might take another 3. But u still hit on body better than on the head being a newbie.

But evenually as u progress and get comfortable with your precision, you will get to shoot at the head almost every time.

Man tried multiplayer this morning for few mins.... Flying a helicopter and the jet is difficult

DW, i have been playing the game so long but never managed to fly a jet properly so far.. and yeah never bothered to try it out that often or practice it.. im better on ground than in air.

better put TDF tags for identification..

@San.. you are using something new now a days. :p

TDF tag line seems to be a nice idea.. Also.. i only play TDM now a days and its fun for me..

AN94 and M4163 both guns in BC2 are awesome. I scored most kills with these. It takes max 3 bursts to kill any enemy, but they lack in CQC. Revolver works really good with these guns as sidearm. Lets see how it's in BF3. :)

As i said, AN94 is tad more difficult to use in BF3 mainly because of a larger crosshair compared to BF BC2 (for hip shooting) and the accuracy required when scoped (due to the recoil in BF3). But M416A3 is still a force to reckon and the most amazing gun in BF3. Also to say, M4A1 is better in BF3 with a smaller recoil effect.

AN94 is for experienced players, specially for the burst fire mode. it fires two rounds at the same spot. also G3A3 is also difficult to master, both are for Long range engagement. no so for CQB.

Burst fire rifles kind of limit you from spraying, and develop habit of shooting in bursts. Though they might be difficult to handle, but they can be really deadly in the right hand.
People talk a lot about Famas, is it available in the base version or only DLC?

I'm a $hitbucketter aka LVL 100, got 500+ kills (63 weapons) in all primary except few shotguns(all 100+) , so prety much I have mastered all weapons :p

I got 500+ kills in scoped crossbow, and 100+ in standard crossbow.

I also burst fire, the reason I said that was newcomers will find it difficult to use that gun :p , famas is from DLC.

Famas is coupled with one of the DLC's i guess..

Its a gun that noobs use a lot. thanks to the less recoil and unbelievable range for a gun of that kind. It must be nerfed IMO.

Re: Battlefield 3 Multiplayer Discussion

I don't use scopes at all only RDS, except when using Sniper riffles I use either 3.4X or 8x.

this.. same here.. not a single scope apart from snipers

a quick question how do we communicate. today i tried MOH and i couldnt communicate to anyone (selected server with only 7 people so that i get an idea)

I dont remember in MOH.. but in BF3 its J, K, L for squad, team, all communications.

I am not sure which one is for what though.. may be its in order.

so try pressing those keys and you will know.. :)
