[Gun picture thread]

Hey Ive got the 2x magnifying lens in and battery along with some gnp tools

 

The lens is great but it didnt come with instructions or a dust cover.

[Gun picture thread]

Good choice in an AR. I'd definitely run the setup from the second picture.

 

The photos themselves are quite well setup, try and get outside where possible, the quality of proper sunlight makes pictures look far better right away. Specially if you setup a nice clean background.

 

Yea absolutely, but the weather has just been well grey..plus its taken with my phone..i got a cam for better pics.

Got a silencer coming dif grip and a 3x lens for the aimpoint. Looking to get a cqb front end too as I pref the

extended look when its stored but not the weight when playing.

Just got that G&P M4 Special Forces

[battlefield 3]

Hi who has upgraded to premium here?

Ive been playing it on xbox and like the maps a lot.

The downside i think is the 16p limitation.

You dont really have time to destroy much as you spend

most of the time running around...like in cod. Makes my thumb hurt!!

[battlefield 3]

I think MGs are miles better since the patch, before the patch I considered the M240B and the PKP practically useless, but now they're like fully automatic sniper rifles!

 

Recoil when you use them without a bipod is a bit over the top though, in real life after you'd fired the first burst off it would be quite easy to adjust for it and keep the muzzle down, especially considering the weight of the weapons. I reckon they made them hard to use because otherwise they'd be too good. They'd just straight up outclass everything. All the LMGs are long range, accurate, very damaging and all have huge ammo capacities meaning you can go for ages without reloading, so making the recoil crazy without using a bipod seems sensical.

 

It also forces people to play the role more realistically, finding a good position to lay down good long blasts of surpressive fire, which I think helps promote the nature of the game and discourages CoD fags who'd usually Rambo around with an M60 and massacre everyone. There's no room for people like that in Battlefield, it's one of the things I love about it.

 

Craig said: "Yeah, an MP5 is needed. I may get it (the new DLC) if my other mates on the Xbox do, but I'm looking at getting Spec Ops In The Line, and Future Soldier just arrived (came out), so you know.

 

Seriously, what's so hard to understand about that? You all act like he's one of those Asian guys who try and sell you stuff with broken english that no one can understand, but really, it's just a case of there being little/no grammar and punctuation, all you have to do is add it in when you're reading it and it makes perfect sense.

 

On another note though, has anyone played the Spec Ops demo? 'Cos I think it's one of the worst games I've ever played... The AK has a burst mode, the charging handle on the UMP moves with the ejection port... I could've died when I saw that. The M4 rear iron sight is also mounted insanely far forward, are they trying to make the weapon inaccurate, or what?

 

It plays like Gears of War and the weapons are so wrong they might as well be using made up ones, so I don't see why you don't just play GoW instead.

 

Not sure what to make of Ghost Recon, I think they went TOO FAR into the future, turning invisible is just stupid and having all those vision modes is stupid as well. Why didn't they just re-release Summit Strike from the original Xbox and then add a "God mode" cheat to it, or something? It just feels like you're cheating, but the cheats are built in. I fail to understand how you can ever lose unless you're the worst gamer ever.

 

I agree with finding a good position and giving suppressive fire but most of the time i find myself doing it and the rest of the people hiding behind walls till i finish my mags..then get killed..I will try the 240b and the pkp as I have never used them.

That specops the line has some great atmosphere but as you said the weapons are crap and its like gow..and yes might as well play gow.

Future soldier..cloak hmm more like crysis fail..and also like gow..the whole 3rd person with the cover system is just not my thing..rather play gow instead!

[battlefield 3]

I would pay 400 but 1200 is taking the COD piss ..thats just rinsing it..or us in this case! Map DLC's should be free on BF they always have.

What i want is the mg53/42 or something with a similar rof..at least the rof seemed very high on bfbc2. The support guns are all a bit to slow and weak.

Try using the m60 with a grip on 5 guys..you might take one out and injure 2 more if you lucky. I want something that rips through a la usas with frag but without the frag if u get what I mean.

Why arent there any mg turrets in this game? Before the update you didnt have recoil when using a bipod on your mg but now its bloody pointless as the gun kicks around just as much on the bipod as it does without..wtf

[battlefield 3]

The new dlc is going to cost 1200 points...is anyone going to pay that??

[battlefield 3]

I was actually on Gulf of Oman when I died from jumping off the roof.

 

I've also died from walking through a broken section of fence, stepping off a curb, landing from a parachute jump even after having my chute deployed for most of the descent and then the stupidest one was leaving the mission area so the 10 second counter comes up, except instead of it counting down from 10, I just died immediately without warning.

 

Then there's times when I've been killed by people who didn't start shooting at me until after I got behind hard cover. I'll be sprinting across open ground then they'll start shooting right as I turn behind a wall or whatever, and then I die even though they lost line of sight. It's like they can shoot through walls, or my guy was holding out on death until he was actually safe.

 

In either case, wtf?

 

There's also still a ton of glitches. Most annoyingly not being able to always vault through windows, or over wrecked pieces of half destroyed wall.

 

 

What describing sounds like lag. Best thing is to use EU servers only and UK ideally. Problem is that the engine either calculates to slow to keep up with your movement or the other way around in some cases.

Happened to me as well loads of times after running around the corner then dying a few steps after.

 

Lately the bad luck deaths have increased a lot. Happens about 3 times per game now..and also getting shot behind hard cover like concrete blocks etc and again i think thats down to the engine/connection processing time. there is always a minimum damage weapons cause on certain distances and loads of other factors p-lay a role..who knows

 

pre update you couldnt shoot through fences or your rpg would explode when shot through glass or tree branches..they fixed that now.

whats your gamertag? mine RB ST3AL

[battlefield 3]

Yeah, I had quite a good streak going the other day, spotted a guy running into the building I was on top of, so I jumped off the roof (I was only 1 story up) and when I landed I died, even though I had full health and everything, really pissed me off.

 

I hate it when the game says I've committed suicide.

 

mate on gulf of oman, i jumped over gravel filled blocks at 'B' right next to the buggy and I died...erm wtf

[battlefield 3]

I agree that it was stupid that the MAV could be used as an elevator, but in my eyes it filled a void, a void that was being unable to climb to the top of all the buildings.

 

In reality, snipers take the high ground and get dug in because if they don't they have no advantage over other units, they don't have clear line of sight over long ranges, they need to be higher than all the obstacles, so their rifle doesn't become useless.

In reality, they're able to go into buildings and get to the roof from the inside.

 

On Battlefield you can't get in many of the larger buildings, so the MAV offered a solution for getting to the roof. It was an unrealistic solution but created the realistic effect of snipers being actually worth their salt.

 

I do personally want to murder all the dicks that used the MAV to run people over though, that was just like saying, "Well I can't aim for sh*t, so I'll just hide in a place where I can't be found or injured and run everyone down..."

 

I think anyone manning an MAV ought to come up on the minimap like the mortar guys do.

 

But anyway, how do you use the heavy barrel and the flashlight on the G53? They're both Slot3 unlocks.

 

you are right my bad should have been either or with the g53..

 

you can still get on top of buildings, just have someone fly you there =)

 

the mav killing thats just balls..i was in a game on metro conquest where 4 snipers camped in their spawn and ran people over all game through..total dicks !

they should not be able to do that and yes def should appear on the map like mortar guys.

[battlefield 3]

This new update sucks penis.

 

I miss not being able to use the MAV as an elevator, the snipers seem to behave differently. I'm convinced the damage of practically everything has been reduced and also, not that it particularly bothers me, but tanks seem to be pathetically weak all of a sudden.

 

Mostly though, what the hell is with this rent-a-server bollocks? Now there are no real, serious servers, they're all being rented out to retards who're just trying to make the game better for themselves which in turn makes it crap for everyone else. I don't want to play games with 1000 tickets that just keep rotating the same map over and over.

 

If to make the game good enough for me to bother spending time on it, I have to rent out a server for 2000 MS points a month, then EA and Dice can take a hike down to the pits of hell.

 

Edit:

 

It's been a few days and I'm actually warming to the update, (though I still hate the rent-a-server thing) snipers can now kill with a centre mass shot out to a certain distance, which is good and earlier today I got an epic headshot, I was in an elevated position looking down at about a 30 degree angle, 535m headshot on a guy sprinting between all the freight containers on Kharg Island. I think probably my best kill so far.

 

I disagree partially. Thank god you cant use the mav as elevator anymore, i thought that was well out of order!

I think the sniping has improved a bit but still sucks close range. some weapons seem to have reduced in power initially but they have improved in other areas.

in terms of tanks, they still rock if you ask me even though a tank without the reactive armor upgrade can get disabled with one javelin hit but not rpg hit.

since the update i have shot down several choppers with the rpg which was impossible before, and i might add thats soo much fun. i even shot down 2 jets flying really low (not hovering but flying).

 

my new weapon of choice as engineer is the g53 with heavy barrel, foregrip and flashlight (yea i know but it helps against people with higher powered rifles)

 

the rent a server update is something that makes sense for clans or websites etc btw I would be well up for chipping in for a AFUK server..

I have played games with 1500 tickets and what i found they are good for is trying different tactics over and over, so great for practising!

if you want to play the normal servers(dice) then just go on the search function in the server browser and type in normal or dice

[battlefield 3]

I figure I might as well post mine as well, before they start getting worse again as I've run out of things to aim to achieve again lol.

 

Wormongers, I assume you play on PC? If not then your kill streak is pretty impressive, what weapon were you using and what was the map?

Squad WorMongers

[battlefield 3]

The laser and torches are so bright, they piss me off no end, pretty much can't see anything on the screen and it just results in whoever's being dazzled spraying like a mad man at the light.

 

Yea the lasers and torches are most of the time the reason I throw my pad against the wall and scream at my dog..lol

How can a torch blind the hell out of me from 10m away in broad daylight??

[battlefield 3]

M249+ IRV+ Extended Mag + Prone = SQUAD WIPE! Believe you me.. 260 score/m, 419 kills with the m249. K/D 1.562. Join us in platoon WorMongers. its RB ST3AL hrrhrr

[battlefield 3]

Hi guys quick update, my mate in germany who has a j-tech xbox got a leaked version of bf3 on 2 DVDs. He said once you install the visuals on your hd the game looks just like the pc version in single player modes. He was well impressed and also mentioned that the 3d and sound are amazing.

I can only laugh at ppl who canceled their preorders muahaha. I ordered it on pc and xbox and will prob buy mw3 as well on xbox..

My fav still the 870 with slugs, pop you in the head from across the map boi!

[battlefield 3]

Ive played it on the ps3 and the xbox as well as the pc. Ps3 def sucked, Pc was visually the best and gameplay xbox rules. this game is capable of hosting a 250 player match on pc and I have been watching plenty of 128 players games on youtube and they ran without lag.

I have preordered it and cant wait! Add me on xbox live 'RB ST3AL'

How can you even ask what the prone button?? come on, the controller only has like 10 buttons and if you press start and options the controller layout is right there..its like standing in front of a door and asking how do you open it...read the sign!!! so if you having controller problems i feel bad for you son...

[battlefield 3]

hey guys. Ive been playing the beta on ps3. not impressed. loads of bugs. the weapons are either to strong or too weak. the graphics is soso.

the on screen info is very annoying, light blue or bright red. the flashlight is very annoying. the sounds are all very similar.

i dont even want to go on. tomorrow i'll be downloading the beta on xbox to see if thats any different which i highly doubt.

over id give it a 5/10 so far. why release a beta at this stage is a mystery to me.

[battlefield 3]

to be honest it just looks like any other FPS just maybe better graphics

not that thats a problem i love FPS's

 

you cant be serious!?!

[battlefield 3]

Is there a AFUK clan? I play bfbc2 a lot, and bf3 well..i cant wait!!
