just saying... I can't wait for the first MP vids with tanks, jets and so on.

[Konohamaru!]

I too am lookin forward for this. Been playing more Bad Company 2 lately getting back into Battlefield shape. =)

Will BF3 have jets? BC2 doesn't seem to have jets, which I miss from the previous BF MP games.

[KrayZ33]

the new trailers show very short jet scenes and the developers say that there will be jets again this time

[Animeniax]

I have to bone up on my flying skills with the helos in BC2. They're a little too powerful, but that's real life. The jets back in BF2 were a lot of fun, when you could actually get one. We'd wait around at spawn points and fight over who got them. It would usually end up with us team-killing and shooting teammates to get the plane, which was as much fun as playing the game.

(of course its awesome too)


games like CoD are nothing more than shit compared to this

[Animeniax]

I'm having a blast with BFBC2. Can't wait for BF3, though it means starting from scratch. I'll definitely have to wait until winter vacation to get it. I'm currently spending waaaay too much time playing BFBC2.

Got the game today. I hate how you have to use your browser to do shit.

I'm getting the midnight release at Gamestop! For Ps3 of course

[Xollence]

Game looks real good, not sure if I should get it for my PC or PS3.

Playing on PC, despite the activation issues tonight. Looks great, plays smooth. Obviously better controls (for non-flying vehicles and infantry).

While I clearly suck at...basically everything other than spotting, I had an absolute blast playing with a pickup squad. Good communication, and in general had one hell of a time. I've got to figure out how to get a decent chat running so things work more smoothly. Playing bait is actually...kind of fun.

It does sort of suck that Support is basically useless in Large Conquest other than giving ammo to snipers that ran empty. Definitely my favorite class.

I also cannot fly. At all. But I am good at being a gunner.

Yeah, I ran into an issue tonight with installing. Basically after installing from Disc 2, it keeps asking me to "Please Insert Disk 2", but won't recognise any of my discs. I ended up cancelling the installation, but it still showed the game as being installed. I then had fun navigating the web interface, which asked me to install the browser plug-in, as well as install the game (uh huh..). A repair install fixed it though, and ended up downloading 500MB from the internet.

For some reason, I can rarely see the ping of the servers I'm trying to join (in the server list), and not at all once I'm in the game.

Also sucked that I had to change graphics settings once I've spawned into the world, not while I'm dead, nor when I'm not playing a game. Thankyou, web-interface.

I got to work out how spotting works. I thought it would have been using a pair of binoculars or something, but from playing it seems more like setting up your radio and then looking at people. (I can't hear myself making the calls though, so does that mean it's not working?) (edit: nvm, the button's "Q". Sometimes it's awesome since if I'm not sure if someone's there, I press Q to check without shooting to give my position away)

Any idea of campaign mode is a good training ground? Or just learn the maps and leave the campaign alone (like in BC2)?

Alright. It's official. It's time for a gotwoot death squad.

Post your Username's and Skype if you use er. Lets get something going. I loved BFBC2 but jets are backkkkk!!!!~

Ps, PC all the way baby.

[Ryllharu]

Origin: Ryllharu
Skype (but I never really use it): ryllharu

What can I say, it's a good screen name.

[Buffalobiian]

<---- for both origin and skype. One of the perks of having such a unique nick is that it's rarely taken. And when it is, most of the time it's because I forgot I signed up already. :P

I doubt I can play many people here though. I'm pretty much limited to Oceania servers due to ping.

[Ryllharu]

Rule #1 of Gotwoot Battlefield 3: Don't let Ryllharu fly.
Rule #2 of GW BF3: NEVER, ever, under any circumstances, let Ryllharu fly.


Played with Lucifus for a number of rounds. It was so much fun. Let Lucifus fly. Don't let me. Unless you want to see a helicopter flip over in less than 5 seconds and explode less than 3 meters from where it took off.

I drive Jeeps. I run over peeps.

[Buffalobiian]

They don't let you re-invert your mouse axis for flying jets, but you can work around it by tweaking the keyboward. :P

I haven't figured out if I want to apply this tweak yet.

I'm not really sure about my connection, are you all from the western hemisphere? I usually play on Asian servers

I'm in the eastern hemisphere. Haven't tried any Asian servers yet though.

I will play this.
