[QUOTE="Dante2710"][QUOTE="mitu123"] Hit detection isn't perfect in this game.

mitu123

Remember putting 4 rockets into one tank, lol.

I think mine usually die in 3 shots (and im sure there was no other damage to it). Its either cause I hit it in some vitals or some guy was repairing the tank yous hot lol.

Aww damn. Can't play it. I have to compile a database with 3 million observations... It completely takes the juice out of the processors. Meanwhile I have to watch the damn thing goes. No void the internet can't fill in though =) .

Are the RPGs sort of inconsistent for anyone else? I shoot at a vehicle from the back and sometimes it doesnt register,maybe its just me.

I was unable to knife someone today :P
Ran up behind him, and hit F, and my guy sliced and missed for some reason. The person was walking away from me but I was practically inside his pants running into him from behind. Then I had the knife in my hands and sliced 3 more times. The second time hit but didn't trigger the animation and that is how he noticed and shot me.

Hit detection is not perfect yet no, but a vast improvement over BFBC2. I never encounter the 'i shot you and you shot me' experience for one.

In real life yes, but not in BF3. I've killed myself couple times with SMAW or RPG, when some dude has run in front of me just when I shot.

[QUOTE="wis3boi"] projectile explosives need a minimum distance before the explosive arms and detonates. Otherwise it's just gonna break apart on contactwis3boi

[QUOTE="wis3boi"][QUOTE="mitu123"] Yet I manage to do direct hits and sometimes nothing happens.

mitu123

yes, that can happen, but point blank rockets, or otherwise very close shots, arent going to go through armor. Even said so in a loading screenwis3boi

Haven't seen that message myself. It has to be quite close then, because I've destroyed some tanks from really short range.

good move on the flashlights. Using them in daylight is really dumb, they're made for dark areas/night time, where they SHOULD be that blinding.

wis3boi

I notice a lot of guys are using the M249 + foregrip + flashlight and getting a lot of kills in all of the maps. They get in really close and can blind everybody no matter what the light. This shoudl balance that out real well.

So many try hards with that stupid gun. I was on the tower yesterday sniping and a guy was at C shooting back at me and I went down in 3 shots from it. So 2 from an SV98 is a death and 3 from an M249 is a death. Thats some bad balance.

[QUOTE="Wasdie"]

[QUOTE="wis3boi"] oh god...the people who bumrush with the m249 are so annoying :lol:wis3boi

I use it. I don't use the flashlight, but a 249 with a foregrip attatchment would be pretty devistating at close ranges.

I notice that they only register about half the shots at close range. If they registered 100% of them, the 249 would be unstoppable. It's annoying but understandable.

The 249 + scope + bipod + ammo perk (200 round boxes) gets you a lot of points if you know how to properly use a 249 for suppressive fire.

[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="wis3boi"] heh reminds me of how much I love the suppressing fire feature in BF3. My friend saw me browsing my battlelog and goes "What? 21% accuracy? Wow that's bad" and I was like "suppression gets me the love of my teammates. And points." wis3boi

Longest game so far for me.....1hr and 7 min :|Dante2710

Am I the only one that thinks the lighting for the expansion maps is dull and listless?

[QUOTE="Dante2710"]Longest game so far for me.....1hr and 7 min :|mitu123

I agree. A game that long would almost bore me. Thats way too long for one match

OUCH. This is why I'm a PC gamer.

[QUOTE="bleehum"] The nerf is a bit much, but they're just ridiculous right now.Wasdie

Actually for broad daylight, you shouldn't get flashed at all. I say nerf it further. It should just be a dead giveaway of your position, not blind anybody even in the slightest.

The knife is very finicky. Sometimes knifing works for me, like a round I just played in, and sometimes it doesn't.

How useful are the rocket pods for jets? It next up for my jet unlocks and I'm wondering if it's worth it over hear seekers.AcidSoldner

[QUOTE="AcidSoldner"]How useful are the rocket pods for jets? It next up for my jet unlocks and I'm wondering if it's worth it over hear seekers.BrunoBRS

So...are the rocket pods bombs or rockets? They aren't heat seaking, are they?

They're just rockets.

Like the default rockets from Choppers. Just point and fire with no deviation in their path.

Damn you wasdie you beat me to it :P

Anyway I find heatseekers only good against low grade chopper pilots who are idiots or have no flares yet. Its easy points. But I haven't take down any jets with them.
