That being said, co-op is really really fun when you're adlibbing racial commentary.

Note sure why people make Large Conquest maps with a server cap of 16 to 32? Fucking LARGE MAPS FOR LARGE AMOUNTS OF PEOPLE D:

I don't know what it was about Socom.....but I completely agree with you.

Tried to do clan wars in CoD, Halo, Battlefield, GoW......and nothing could hold me over like Socom did.

wow, lmao. I hit up EA Tech Support Live chat, and Im guessing it got intercepted or something and I wish I would have saved that chat. I'm sure the fucker tried to hack my account. He sent me to (https://account.ea.com/common/fp_p.do) to do god knows what...

You have no luck man...

What I love about this game is it's more than just an fps. It's more of a battle simulator. Priority needs to be on finding cover before anything else. You can't really run and gun in this game and I love it.

as soon as they fix that aiming problem with PS3 i'll be much happier

This. Also, stayed away from new Nvidia drivers... they don't play well apparently.

I can't stand playing atm on ps3, hopefully this psn maintenance addresses it.

according to twitter, the maint is only for network stability.

Brobox impressions:

1) The fine aim sensitivity is taking a bit to get used to.
2) I'm seeing mortars being abused already.
3) Loving the explosions and destruction.
4) Grenade throw distance seems to be short, and seem spongy, and don't bounce off walls well.
5) Starting out is damn tough, due to no attachments to help.
6) Pacing seems to be slower, and its hard to get over 20 kills in a round, even when your team is raping.
7) Grand Bazaar on Rush is a nasty camp-fest. Not too fun.
8) Unlocks are too slow. Starting weapons are weak compared to later ones.
9) The M-Com station on Operation Firestorm (I think, might be another map) that is in that crevice, is in a piss-poor spot.
10) Rockets seem to be too weak on tanks. Takes 4 to disable sometimes. Too many.
11) It takes a lot of bullets to kill someone. I get far too many assists.
12) Chopper controls are all FUBAR. Takes a long time to get used to the new system.

The environment of the game is amazing, but I think some improvements can be made to the gun/bullet/damage system.

is it me, or doesnt worth use the airplane. My points/ratio using the airplane drops incredible and can't help conquering

**kuronosan** · 2011-10-27 02:21

Aim for the treads if you want to disable tanks. Too many people aim for the fucking armor before they realize the hitboxes are realistic.

I had this happen to me yesterday while playing the campaign. I'm running 3.4 i5 with xfire 5770s. It really sucked ass cuz the cloud fucked something up and I lost 2 or 3 mission's progress (haven't started multiplayer yet, shame on me).

I tried a multiplayer match and the game just never started. People would spawn and be able to jump up and down but that was it. I ended up going to bed instead.

dicked around with engineer, learned i had a rocket launcher... by the end of the round i was 24-8 on hardcore operation metro conquest. jesus they need to tune down rocket damage on hardcore. i blindfired to the roof of the escalators and got triple kills consistently. let me grab an easy MVP on a 64man

**Cheerios** · 2011-10-27 05:02

It's unlikely that anything would be tuned aside from splash radius for hardcore only. Explosives have always been kind of a gank fest since people only have 60 health in HC instead of 100.

Yes you can... lol me and my friends have been destroying kids by constantly rushing, have a 2.5 K/D just by rushing people and they're not expecting it lol. My K/D would probably be alot higher if I camped, but camping or "finding cover" as you call it, is for fags who suck.

**Qalbert** · 2011-10-27 06:54

got 4 medical efficiency ribbons in one match last night, feels good man.

**Qalbert** · 2011-10-27 06:55

also does it seem to take a lot of bullets to kill on brobox? I flanked a whole enemy squad and despite being directly behind them only killed one before the rest turned around and raped me.

You can que on brobox

same here, also on an i7 @ 4ghz w/a 5850, i was kind of hoping it was due to a bad GPU overclock so i set things back to normal last night and haven't played since. i was almost used to full freezes after playing RAGE so much but when it started happening here too (twice so far) i was getting pissed. hoping the "preview 3" driver and reset voltages takes care of it but maybe not...

i was getting best results in RAGE with preview 2, but i figured i should move back to preview 3 for now, to see if it helped BF3 more.
