battlefield 3

[Searley]

Operation Firestorm, Wake Island to name two. It requires a hell of a lot of patience.

 

[SheriffHD]

i belive there is a certian mark where the bullet life stops, its at like 3100m roughly.

and that is done on Operation firestorm.

the ones where people do it further are actually usuing a Eod bot.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Where abouts on the map do people have to be for it to be 2000m though?

I went to the top right map boundary (the american spawn end on CQ) of OF and sniped someone at the mountain top at the opposite end of the map and that was only about 1260m.

 

[Searley]

From the US base, you have to go to the far left hand corner of the map (stand at the front of where the choppers spawn, and face left) Theres a big mountain over near it, it would take you a couple of minutes to walk there so take a car You will then be able to pick off anyone on the hill near the opposition base for about 15/1600m. Its then just a waiting game hoping someone from the RU team goes into the corner of the map opposite you.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

Which they never will haha.

Also, whenever anyone's on a hill and they're far away, unless they're stood up then you literally can't see them apart from when you see their rounds flying at you.

Dunno if that's just a console thing, the render distance is probably a lot better on PC, not to mention the clarity. That's why I think there needs to be a better zoom scope.

 

[Searley]

Well it worked for me

Must be a console thing, on PC you can see their scope glare which gives you an excellent aiming point. I liked the days of Black Hawk Down with the Barrett and the 20x scope. I still to this day miss that game

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

At work the other week I found out about these controllers for the Xbox and PS3: http://www.play.com/Games/Xbox360/4-/20475...%7Cprd:20475388

They're a bit expensive, but I bet the advantage you get once you're used to it makes up for it, especially since it's an advantage few other people will have lol.

Has anyone used one or seen them before?

If you cba to click the link then it's basically a mouse controller to replace the right stick on consoles, so you can aim more naturally.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

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?

[Airsoft-Ed]

I can't remember if we've been over this or not, but what the hell is the "Skill" statistic based on?

Mine seems to wildly change from around 300 to around 700.

 

[Tariq]

well, not too sure but BFBC2 skill levels were based on your peformance compared to other players.

1 being the best player currently in the world, 2 being like the next best 50 players etc right until 50. Not sure what the BF3 system uses.

 

[M_P]

• You gain/loose SL based on every confrontation with another player

• Killing a highly skilled enemy gives you more points than killing someone less skilled

• Points are not transferred from a player to another, they are simply added/subtracted based on the encounter and the SL of both parts (thus, after an encounter, one part may go up 50 points while the other loses only 20)

• The SL is used for matchmaking

:lol:

 

[TPI]

well you should feel graced because i ranked 49Th in the world before my TV went funny and i couldn't see sqaut.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

My skill on BFBC2 was 2 most of the time and I'm fairly sure the closest I got to being top was about 6000th place or there abouts.

Cheers for that Marksman.

 

[Tariq]

Well im not sure exactly how it worked then

All i knew was that i used to play with a guy who was ranked 2nd on the PS3 servers and he was a 2.

 

[Airsoft-Ed]

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.

 

[joshcowin]

mine is

kills:2791

deaths:3451

k/d 0.809

kill assist:192

score per min:232

longest head shot:1034m

longest colatteral:726m and 728m

knives:734

most stars on one weapon:m249 11 stars

i mainly play as recon and support and when i play recon i even go indoors running round with a sv98 with iron sights on,since bf have done this rent a server thing they have ruined the game for hardcore players,its so annoying joining a game and getting kicked because they are boosting

 

[Cyrax]

I havent been on BF3 for ages, been saving the galaxy and all, but it sounds like its gone down the pan a bit? EA been ruining more things?
