Exactly. I have about the same K/D just from playing like normal. AND I have a better longest headshot, I think. So there.

That's probably the xbox 360 BF3 community in a nutshell.

Considering my most used weapon is the M249 and I always suppress enemies, I'm pretty happy with my 20.1% accuracy rating.

On consoles, it's nothing special to me. The maps are WAY to big for consoles anyways, being that there are 24 players MAX per server. They need to bump it up to atleast 30 or 40 to make it fit the maps better. Other than that, the gunships make rush HORRIBLE on the AK maps.


Yeah, my new account on NG.

I always find that ironic. In a game where the characters themselves will curse at any given moment, some people will still enforce some sort of "No Harsh Language" rule. It's because of those people that they may as well make a censor-filter for the foul language like that to an R-rated movie on cable TV, where they use similar sounding words instead of the curse.

Well, I kinda deserved it. I was typing "FUCK" in the chat box repeatedly. I just get really pissed off sometimes in Gun Master... such as, when I get 99 points for a kill assist.

The campaign isn't anything special. The story is memorable for maybe a few sequences, and there's only 3 levels that involve vehicles, something that makes Battlefield what it is. Even then, you don't get to fly the jet in it's specific level, sitting around as co-pilot instead (admittedly, it was my favorite part of the campaign. I liek jets). I know you're into achievements though, so there's a few you can pick up by playing single-player.
Honestly, if you're gonna get Battlefield, it should be for the multiplayer. I would suggest that I would play with you, and even help you in co-op, buuuut lack of Xbox Gold is a bit of an obstacle.

I'm pretty sure Bad Company 2 is worse on the Xbox 360. All I was getting was a face of spawn trapping on most maps.

Did those maps have attack helicopters on them, by any chance? I remember more often than not getting caught in a pro pilot's and gunner's circle strafe of death at the home base, especially on Atacama Desert. If someone managed to escape the seemingly endless missile barrage, the tanks waiting outside were happy to greet them with their cannons. It was even worse when the gunner would jump out and steal the friendly attack helicopter for himself, increasing the chaos by twofold. The addition of AA guns didn't even help, since they could be destroyed, unlike in BF3.

The campaign I thought was atrociously boring. And the ending was stupid. But some points were cool I guess.

The multiplayer is fantastic however.

I think a few maps have attack heli's. Some might have both attack heli's and scout heli's such as Heavy Metal which had both.

I knew admins would abuse their powers like this. Good thing my friends have their own servers so I don't have to go on a server that would be full of butt-hurt admins hating good players.

Loved that part, the visuals were brilliant. Walking up the steps onto the aircraft carrier with the waves crashing around you, and the rain on the jet canopies looked really good. This is coming from someone playing on an Xbox - I don't care what any PC elitists say, I'm fine with the graphics we've got (not calling all PC gamers elitists by the way, just the ones who boast about their 6 core, tri screen rigs and feel the need to be nasty about console gamers).

You can't see it in the stats, but I did something amazing this game. I was flying a jet and got spammed by heat-seakers. An attack chopper finally got the disable. I parachuted out, and landed on a roof near the B flag. An engineer was right in front of me when I landed, so I immediately knifed him. The attack chopper was coming around to finish me off, so I grabbed his kit, pulled out the SMAW, turned around and let lose. Oh yeah. I nailed that chopper before he had even wounded me. All of this took place in the space of maybe six seconds.

I've been getting better and better at using jets in this game.
I think I'm in the groove with them now using the mouse and keyboard.

Thanks in advance.

I Couldn't really find much on google either. There's not really any buildings in Paris that look like that. It's Most likely fictional. But I'm happy to be corrected, as I'm slightly curious as well.

I was on an absolute RAMPAGE with my friend. I was on the mountains of Kharg Island, sniping. I was going 20-0 with 600meter headshots on each kill. My friend was in the jet, raping their air and armour. Admin on the other team banned us. I asked why and he shouted back in a voice message, "because you touch yourself at night".

His name is Toxic Licorice on Xbox Live, so if anybody wants to flame or troll him for being a badmin, be my guest.

Correction. It was 17-1. With 42% accuracy oh yes. My point stands though. I was raping. My friend was raping. We were banned for it. FUCK YOU, TOXIC LICORICE.

I am confused as to the point of having admins on games like BF3. I mean, I understand that people can be douches to eachother, but there is a block option, and there is always the opportunity to join another server. All admins on game servers do is either ban people that kill them because they are raging, kick / ban / teamswitch people to get higher in the ranking system, or use their powers to control people so they can help their need for attention and power.

It's sadly one of the unfortunate side effects we have to deal with since people could rent their own servers. I think the major problem is that we don't know who is a bad admin on BF 3 until someone has been kicked by them for an undeserving reason, and by then it's too late to bother avoiding them, since they already did the same to us basically. Most we can do is post their name to warn others to stay away from them, like Cookies did.
I have to be honest though, I have yet to be banned/kicked from a server since the update came out, and I have had quite a few good games that might warrant a dumb admin to ban me. Of course, I do try my absolute best to only play on the few official DICE servers that are still around, so that might be a helping factor in my case.

And the fact I can't play online on Xbox due to not having Gold at the moment, too... *mumblegrumble
