971m headshot today. Almost had a nerdgasm :p
I planned it out with a friend and we were to join a match on Operation Firestorm. He'd switch teams and we'd try to shoot each other from the edges of the map. He was only using the SV98 so was pretty much screwed over in terms of bullet drop. By I had the M98b (sp?) an managed to kill him without even needin the bipod.
He was Russian, I American. I drove into the rocky mountainous area opposite B Flag and he drove as far west as he could down the main road that went through the map until he reached the out-of-bounds area. Pretty hard considering this was still in a public match. I'm hoping I can get over 1000m. He goes north west instea of just west to the are that's completely burnt out and I go on to crave at C Flag.

I hate when you're taking a leisurely stroll with a friend and an all out war gets in your way...

Congrats on the shot, though!

ninja, whats the sitrep on your ps3 status?

I'm going to TRY playing this tonight. Hopefully it works out.

get a couple knife kills for me!

You know what? I got six in one match tonight. Two are from a friend, and he took one of mine last week.


^ Someone needs to fix that cat smilie.

I have a few tank shell headshots lately. I think that switching to the Guided Shell instead of the LMG has forced me to be really careful with my shots and makes me be a bit more patient.

I've been having something weird things happening to me the last few days: I'll be going about my business when I notice I start sliding/hopping around on the map. Everyone else around me is moving fine. Shooting people seems to be working fine too. I'll also have trouble switching around between my various guns and weapons sometimes.

I can't figure out what's causing it though. It'll be happening to me for five minutes, and then it'll go away for several rounds. No one here is using our Internet connection any different from what they normally would. One night I tried a round of BC2, R2 co-op, and two games of R3 (I would have tried the Uncharted games but IMO they don't have a good history for playing online let alone testing) to see if I had similar symptoms. I got nothing. It's only happening in BF3 so far.

i used to have that happen to me in bc2 every once in a while.

can you recall if you were on a dice server or ea server?

No, but maybe I could pay attention next time.

So I had an awful day today. Pretty much every time I got into a firefight I lost, and my KDR I've been working on is going down the toilet.

I still have the unexplainable sliding around, on a -[DICE]- server. I have no idea what's going on because everything else works fine.

Really ****ed off right now.

hmmmmm, i wonder if you are getting some interference with something causing your person to veer off on its own.
for example, in skyrim, my sony headset was interfering with the controller signal and sending me walking diagonally at random times.

are you playing on wireless or hardwired connection?

PS3 to Internet is a physical cable and lately I've been leaving the mic off. Controller is wireless unless it needs to charge.

definitely an internet issue. maybe theres a stability problem on that server?

Maybe, but that would mean in the last two weeks or so playing with friends from NA and Europe I keep ending up on the same server. That seems a bit unlikely.

Our internet connection doesn't have any problems with anything else or any games, there are only problems right now with BF3.

are you using a sony headset?

No, I don't know the model of headset I'm using right now, not that it's been on when this stuff starts happening to me.

well hopefully you can get some stress free games in then Azira, until Dice fixes this.

anyone heard a definite time for when the "big patch" will come out?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] don't mind the slow start. it picks up and i get some bad ass tingz bro.

so if anyone is under a rock with eyes closed and ears plugged the next installments of dlc have been announced.

close quarters will work great with the consoles ( please Lord let the usas just die )

the second dlc that is vehicle centric worries me. dice will really have to look at the limited player count on console matches to find a healthy mix between map size and vehicle count. a fully loaded mbt takes a quarter of the team >_<.

I.. hate.. the fact that we get a close quarters map pack! With no vehicles or nothing, instead of increasing the player cap They are just doing this to apeal to the COD players and trying to make up for the shitty console port.

... the next map pack is going to be huge... i dont see the issue here. theyve already made a map pack thats got some pretty big maps, now theyre making small ones. its variation. i hate that people just jump on and say "ugh its just for teh COD fanboys." it probably isnt, i quite like metro tbh, small maps keep things a little faster paced compared to things like caspian border with its bush wookies. also, no one said you have to buy the map pack

the "big patch" had been subbmitted for review already, so i wouldnt be surprised if it was released next tues. it "fixes" the USAS problem and pretty much changes every other gun too. i think the M249 is better a bit of a nerf as well.

i want arica harbor
