BF3 Upcoming Patch Information

Damn. I really want that patch and I want it now!

grrrrrrrr so no more maving constantly :'( oh well I sucked at it anyway lmao

yeah great changes all around dude,I have a feeling that AS VAL is gonna be something formidable with the increased damage and extended mag now


when the hell is this update coming out?

It's nice to see some changes coming.I remember when the game first came out it was great,but then it turned into a famas,FRAGsas,and MAV fest,also alot would mortar our spawn.

and famas has 25 round mag now

the bipod changes are intriguing.

hmm.I don't see this changing my play style very much at all honestly,but I think it makes for a more fun less grief filled game

>___> not much you can do against a whole team of famas and usas w/frags on metro or grand bazaar tho.I know whole teams will still use them till the bitter end.

the change of burst fire weapons to make them more controllable and making the AN94 better is intriguing.......I like the KH2002 alot and might try other burst fire weapons out now.

can't C4 after death sucks lmao.

and you can use flares now to dodge locked rockets.hmm,maybe the tunkguskta won't be so elite now

I liked the G3 before,might use it more now

this might have been posted, but if not....

(on the topic of attack helicopters)

-Flares no longer reset a lock on.
-This means that if someone flares you can immediately fire a second stinger and it will hit the helicopter assuming no one else has flares.
-Gunner flares have a reload time that is 9 seconds longer than usual (20 seconds vs 11 seconds).
So once flares are used by the gunner the helicopter will be very vulnerable.
-Stingers will also instantly disable a helicopter.
-To defend against this stingers now have a significantly reduced range so they will no longer act like ICBMs.
-They are also affected by below radar, which means a low flying beastly pilot will be your worst nightmare. It's also the only place that choppers will be safe following the damage upgrade jets will get.
-Chopper vs chopper fights will be faster because pilots get a faster lock on time with air to air missiles.
-Pilots get increased damage vs infantry, gunner gets decreased damage vs vehicles.
-Pilots get increased points for assists (maybe gunners do to?).

yeah seems like there's quite alot of good changes in here. Can't wait for this to come out.

I also heard that flares now work against laser guided rockets/missles/shells. Which if true will make me kinda sad. Although I suppose if 2 tanks/javs gang up on a chopper they'll still be toast.

-Added Horns to all Jeeps.

YES!

That was the thing that made me fist bump the air so hard Crombie! FUCKING HORNS! HORNS MAN! HORNS! I hope they are not like BC2 though were only the driver could hear them!

Lamest. Horns. Ever.

If everyone can hear them in BF3 then I will always cap flags in a jeep honking like a madman the entire time.

The more I look over the list the better it sounds. Lots of good decisions in there. Interesting about the Famas getting the 25 round mag. They only had that for the older Famas rifles. Still, it's another good way to tone that gun down a bit.

Can't wait. I wonder when we'll hear if the US map pack is really coming?

I am stoked about the L85A2 buff. I already really like the gun for it's accuracy and it's only getting BETTER

Yeah, accuracy is getting better, but only when you're ADS and not moving at all.

Min spread, ADS, not moving 0.4 -> 0.2

It's also getting a recoil increase to though!

Recoil decrease 22 -> 18

I'm curious how that will affect it. The L85 is definitely one of my favorites to use.

Yea, when I first jumped in a jeep on BF3 the first thing I said was "wheres the damn horn button". I hope that others can hear it cause that will add so much fun. Like Metal said, capping flags honking constantly hahah

I want to honk and shake my fist at tanks in my way. Goddamn women drivers!!

Oooooo a shake fist button would be awesome!
