[PC/PS3/XB360] Battlefield 3 Official Thread

Kill more

Play games other than TDM. That way, capturing the base will earn you points.

 

[Scott™]

Any tips on levelling up quicker? Im only getting 8 or 9 kills a game.... nooooooooooooooooooooob!

BF is a team game not just getting kills. I just spent a whole game being medic and reviving people. Gets the same amount of points as a kill plus extra ribbons. I soon racked up loads.

 

[Spiezels]

Aye, try taking objectives etc.

I finished top a fair few times today with only 1 or 2 kills.

 

[JJ!]

Kill more

I seem to be having issues with that lol!!! I kind get on with any of my few unlocked guns!! (thats my excuse!).

 

[Marc.]

I play as medic or engineer on Conquest and generally score between 3000 and 7000, I've averaged a level an hour since I got it (15 hours playtime, level 15 now). Playing as engineer/medic and also capturing/defending objectives will gain you more points than playing TDM.

 

[AK]

Yep.

I'm mostly playing as Assault now.

Pretty much always top of the board with Turner.

Can't believe I never gave BF the time before this. These new maps have made it much better though and they're the only ones I play, lol.

+1 . Which is ironic as they're old maps. All that time spent developing new maps, the old ones are still the best.

 

[AK]

Yeah, lol.

I never played them on BF2, so they were new to me. .

 

[Scottyvtr]

Been loosing lots recently, ..... K/D is on the up, but the W/L is falling slightly.....



Oh hai Liam Gordie and Gman :rasp:

 

[Will.]

I played BF2 on the xbox but cannot remember any of these maps

 

[Sym0n]

I played BF2 on the xbox

No you didn't, you played Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. BF2 was only released on PC.

 

[Will.]

That explains it then.

Get out of here you dirty Fish player.

Holla.

Yeah, too many people play it like COD, which is really frustrating sometimes. You have to really push as a squad to capture objectives rather than mindlessly run about shooting.

I get far more points per match from revives/healing/captures than I do from kills even though I almost always end with a decent K/D.

 

[J0sh]

Anyone else been using the UAV lift glitch? Been using it to reach some pretty sweet sniping positions. The hotel on Sharqi Peninsula is a good one, although its pretty exposed.

 

[Scott™]

New maps worth a buy?

 

[Will.]

YES

That really annoys me .

Hope they patch it soon.

 

[Christopher]

New maps worth a buy?

Yup. They should be free if you bought the right version of the game (since the Limited Edition was no more expensive than the regular version)

 

[AK]

New maps worth a buy?

Definitely.

 

[AK]

Yup. They should be free if you bought the right version of the game (since the Limited Edition was no more expensive than the regular version)

It prompts you if you've got the right version, so I'm guessing Welshy went pauper spec version .

 

[Will.]

They still sell the Limited Edition version don't they?

 

[Christopher]

Think so, yeah.

 

[AK]

They still sell the Limited Edition version don't they?

It's more expensive than it was on release ATM, lol.

 

[Christopher]

I paid £38 for mine on release day. lol.

 

[AK]

I was £30.

 

[BioHzrd]

£26 FTW

 

[AK]

PC?

 

[Scott™]

I bought the regular version as game had no limited editions left and I wanted it. Oh well.

 

[AK]

How much is the map pack up for?

Anything up to about £7-£8 I'd buy it.

Anymore than that I'd probably trade the version you have in for the Limited Edition.

 

[Gavin.]

I need to stop playing this till silly'o'clock, i only woke up a 4pm. I hate wasting a full day

 

[James28]

Map pack is ~ £11 on PC iirc.
I just paid it lol. Couldn't find the limited edition on PC as I bought it after release date.

 

[Dredz06]

Same again this evening?

 

[Gavin.]

Well I doubt i'll be able to sleep if I went to bed early lol

 

[BioHzrd]

PC?

Course, only way to play a Battlefield game...64 player multiplayer FTW

 

[Will.]

I want 64 player

 

[.Adam.]

Got this for Christmas, played it a fair bit. I am utter s**t though.

Will have to jump on with you lot for a go!

 

[Philip.]

Got this for Crimbo also.

I have been a COD fan boi for years. Played 1942 for a bit though.
First played this at a mates for a bit, couldn't get into it and wasn't that impressed...how wrong I was.

After a few hours I was amazed and I love being a medic
f**king love it, MW3 won't even get a seeing to now tbh.

 

[Scutch]

I'll be back on this when Skyrim is done with. Which shouldn't be too long, all being well. Just need to finish the main quest and unlock a couple of other Achievements.

 

[AK]

Good man!

You played it yet with the Turtle Beach? Sound is AMAZING.

 

[Scutch]

No mate, can't wait. Skyrim is epic with it.

Actually jumped last night when a sewer grate opened underneath me and I fell into the water. The missus was sitting next to me which was rather embarrassing. Slut.

Is it easier getting into a game with friends now?
