what maps are the heli's/tanks on?

They are on most of them. The only map without either is Operation Metro. Aircraft also cannot be found on Grand Bazzar, Tehran Highway, Seine Crossing, and :maybe: Strike at Karkand??

But yeah, pretty much every map has a tank or LAV.

Two maps have jets on B2K (though on Rush, only one does). Wake Island has both and Oman only has jets when it's Conquest.

Yeah they're on most maps, just stay sharp for they're hard to get as everybody wants in lol.

[yourmumsface17]

Don't think that way. Practice and you'll become a real threat. And flying is REAL fun. Jets are crap though.

ok I will stick with it!

I'm with ya on that one. I actually got the hang of it until an enemy heli comes after me. The freaking out begins cuz i can never find them lol. They really should have put in a practice map with all the vehicles.

Yeah defo! I'd love to get some practice in!

I was like that at the beginning, and couldn't be bothered learning to drive any aircraft, I was like who cares I don't need to drive any aircraft but let me tell you that you're really missing out on aircrafts, and it's not that hard to get the hang of it as I learned real quick both heli & jet oh and here's a tip for y'all, change the heli/jet controls to legacy.

Thanks for the tip! Will give it a go.

I keep getting disconnected either from PSN or the EA thing, anyone know whether this is a problem on my side or with BF3? If the latter, any fixes for it? I'm using a wired connection, also, so surely it's not something to do with my router?

It's a problem with their servers. Nothing you can do about it. Just keep trying. Happened for a few days to me.

[dakidx]

Any word on any new DLC or just what we know so far: a snowy maps rumor?

There was a recent tweet about us fans being in for a treat but who knows what they might be talking about.

I'll add you but I won't be playing much until after the 17th of February; alas, it's dissertation writing time. Anyone who fancies a game sometimes feel free to add me, too: Klaxon616

Added dakidx and wolf616.

Ok here is the update.

Had a go and it is much better with legacy controls! I even got 3-4 kills with it I'm still not great, but if I keep practicing hopefully I will become a flying machine

@dakidx add me man, I'm always up for it. yourmumsface17 is my psn - same goes to anyone who wants to party up.

[SchaffinOSX]

That's it... I'm bored. Hopping on BF3 now.

[keefy]

Just had a round that lasted 1 hour 4 minutes it is the longest single round I have played so far, what is your longest round time?

This is the game not particularly proud of it just that because its possible to link I would do.

Nice that's nuts. I'm guessing that was rush? I've had one that lasted about 45 min. It's was a conquest map and it was like 2 vs 3.

Today I gave BF3 another try to check if the patches changed something and was very disappointed. The controls are still horrible and the torch light still has the same amount of light I didnt notice any changes at all, only realized how bad this game actually is. I dont understand why so many people like this game, its horrible.

[moots]

Best game ever!!! I'm addicted once again since cod4

How are the controls horrible?


@moots: Glad to hear that man.

[Wolf616]

Is it worth paying the (extortionate) ?12 for the B2K DLC? I foolishly didn't get the LE due to being a massive loser.

Well sometimes it's just like that, is just like I will never understand how so many people like the boredom that is COD lol.

Conquest 8v8.
To be honest I was getting bored towards the end.

From what I hear it is well worth it but I am not buying it yet until they release another patch at least, I have friends and they all have it so cannto join them them soemtimes and when I play with them they can't join B2K servers which probably annoys them a little.


As for the controls they are funky even on PC using a mouse. On foot its fine its setup perfect but when in a vehicle the sens jumps up way too high luckily the DPI can be dropped to compensate but still its stupid.
