Minigun on Carrier can snipe people deep in land? Is this real life?

This, so much. I would love to be able to make a private server just to mess around in.

Just got the last helicopter unlock:
I just love the viper, it's a beast with a competent gunner and pilot. The havoc feels very clumsy and a lot less agile in comparison.
But i'm having way more fun with the choppers than the jets, feels like a rollercoaster flying at top speeds over the roads in caspian border.
EDIT: and fuck the AA tanks, they seem to be kinda overpowered when they have HSMs and can spam them all over the map

It's nice to see so many people happy with the MP.
Are the console versions worth it? I played a little of the beta on both PS3 and 360 and didn't really like it. Big improvement over the beta?

I only played the beta for an hour or so on PS3 but I really didn't like it, and I'm a huge fan of BF:BC2. That said, I'm having a blast with the final product. I think Metro is the weakest of all the maps.LowEndTorque said:

Claymores any good? I don't recall having seen any in action and, as they're my next unlock, wondering if I should be excited to get them or not.

A stat tracking thing, was popular in the BF2/2142 era.

Playing multiplayer on the 360 and Ive noticed most of the textures are gone. everything from weapon models ammo crates, and vehicles are blurry as fuck. I installed the HD pack when I first installed the game 2 days ago and it looked good then. Seems like a texture bug or something.
Wish I could take a screen shot, but it looks like shit.

sparky2112 said:In the debate over not enough people playing Support, I find it very hurtful to my ego that some/many of you stay alive long enough to actually run out of ammo.I did it once last night and nearly had a heart attack from the sheer novelty of it. Lol.
Not enough people play support? it seems like 2-3 of every squad i'm on is playing support. Not that they drop ammo, but they play support.
I know for recon you get the M39 EBR

Yeah, choppers this outing is really weird and hard to control. Jets too.
Squidyj said:
So they aren't playing support, then.

To quote Demize99: You are on crack. Killzone 2 level of deadzone + acceleration = BAD. I don't care if you like it. It's terrible and needs to go back to BC2 level of controls.

Anybody know the difference between the M16A3 M16A4? I've just unlokced the 4 but battlelog links to the 3 stats and they both share the same unlocks?

There are 6-7 weapons that you have to grind out in co-op. You have to literally grind co-op missions.zlatko said:
It's 7 weapons...from the top of my head you get the REX, the Sig Sauer Carbine (can't remember the exact model), the 93 Rafica pistol, the M36 rifle and the final unlock is the G3.zlatko said:
I got everything except the last two by doing all 6 co-op missions three times (easy, medium and hard)... I'm still 1/4 points away from the G3...yay grinding!
For those having issues with jets, try my keyboard layout. I made it "sane" as I can never do inverted. If I want to go left I press left god damn it.
It's actually very responsive and I was used to this setup within a couple flights. I'm dog fighting like a pro now.
Throttle Up: W
Throttle Down: S
Yaw Right: Right arrow key
Yaw Left: Left Arrow key
Pitch Down: Down arrow key
Pitch Up: Up arrow key
Roll Right: D
Roll Left: A
Fire: Space Bar
If you need to do inverted, modify accordingly, but this takes the mouse out of the equation and is very comfortable.
Edit: This also works well with helicopters once you get the hang of it.

So this game needs an online pass and as far as I can tell there's no trial period. How annoying. I rent games like this to see if I enjoy the multiplayer. In the case of Bad Company 2, a rental is what actually convinced me to buy the game. Guess I'm not going to get that chance with this game.

Same problem. I'm about to revert to previous drivers and see if that helps at all.

As of last night, forget trying to play with a squad of three friends, it boots at least one person from the game...just leaves you on menu screen, sending the other two into a game...no servers have more than 2 empty slots...minor lag issues (not bad)...chat is hardly working.
Squad system is a recognized issue, as is voice chat...they are working on them.

This just seems flat out false to me. The input lag is bad.

I think my dog is really trying to get me to stop playing this game. First he chews through the wires for both rear surround speakers (which I thought was a habit he had grown out of) then he grabs my headset from the table when I'm not looking and chews off the ear-piece.
At least he's staying away from the PS3, I guess.
