Wish I had this on PC, regular conquest doesnt have enough people to populate the map on Xbox, the new conquest assault on the other hand is small enough
They havent done conquest right since bad company 1, there should be no home base and the vehicles should be spread out to all 4-5 capturable bases; this way this way there are no Sides to the map and if all bases get captured the team without bases spawns all over the place instead of getting locked down on one side of the map. Having no set bases keeps all parts of the map populated, leading to more engagement
The new jets blow, sure they have harrier capabilities but they arent maneuverable enough to efficiently fight other jets and dont double well as helicopters; leave jets to jets and helicopters to helicopters, combinations are abominations. Hopefully next time they will put in two seater jets
I do like the new bulldozer tho
this game has only been fun since I hooked up with some old friends of mine to form squads, I barely played till I met up with them
Im really hoping that the next update will give us new gadgets instead of just guns

Yeah me and hundreds of others, word is there's a patch coming soon. You would be too.
Figured out a way to get things working, though it involves alt-tabbing between rounds. This game is awesome. When it's not kicking me because PunkBuster is completely backwards, crashing because "something went wrong", disconnecting, refusing to load, etc. etc.
I've endured worse back in the HL2 days, but yeah it's a little irritating. I specifically waited a while because I thought they'd have the issues ironed out, but they're widespread still.

The sidearms in this game.... So, so good. So satisfying to run out of bullets killing a dude with your assault rifle, whip out your pistol and tap two more out with just 8 bullets. They're really accurate, too.
The first time I glocked a dude from the opposite side of the dock at Noshahr Canals was super satisfying, and then I realized people would always try to sit there and snipe, so I just made that a part of my little route and managed to pull the same shit two more times in a 9 minute deathmatch.
Just running TD until I get the AEK. Only 40,000 point away!

I am an idiot and am playing on PS3. still running a c2d and a 9800gtx i figure might as well go with PS3 until i have a bitchin new build.
anyways the game isnt as dope as i would have hoped for. I always get fucked over and small little glitches really ruin it.

I'll admit I've had some bad luck in this game, getting snipered, camped on, helicoptered, etc. I've been flanked by the enemy team more times now then I can count. But I've had bits of luck as well, where it was my team doing the camping, etc.
One thing I've loved, shooting people with your assault rifle, run out of bullets. pull out your pistol make some more kills. run out of bullets. run up behind a guy and pick him up, pull out your knife, plunge it into his chest. AWESOME! AWESOME! it's happened to me as well, but I've run up behind a few snipers camping on for example damavand peak, and knifed them while they were laying down. I've really started liking the mortar, but unfortunately you really need a team mate to cover you while you mortar because people do the same thing, run up behind you, and knife you while you are mortaring. also fucking KARKLAND IS BAD ASS! I had 30 kills on karland recently with a tank and mortar combo. not at the same time. i got owned a few times but helped my team win rush mode. 
I would jump in every tank possible, fire at snipers, rpg teams, whatever. just taking those fuckers out while risking my life dodging dozens of rockets. I should have gotten a medal. well maybe I did you usually get support medals. also I was mortaring snipers. mortaring is hard because most people know when you are mortaring them and start running, hard to hit someone not in one position. also one mortar doesn't usually kill, it damages. so how many mortars have been successful? quite a few if one mortar = one kill, I'd be racking up 30 kills easy AT LEAST in every game, unfortunately not most of the time I hit someone then they move. even if 3 people are crouched in one spot they still all split up. hahah one thing that always works is mortaring a mortar guy, their equipment shows up really easy on the map, and one shot usually explodes their mortars killing the guy instantly. I've been ended a few times this way myself. I see the mortar equipment but have just fired at someone else, I prep a mortar round and am about to drop it in the tube, but he has pulled out his mortar tube just to counter my mortars, and sees me first, and has already fired the mortar by the time I prep my mortar round

just wait till you get your scoped .44mag.
you know whats awesome is you can push people off buildings/cranes with the MAV haha. Just figured this out last night as we were playing and a homie was on the other team, thinking he's slick on the crane with a scoped shotgun/slugs, I came from behind with my MAV and pushed him off haha was priceless.

It sucks on consoles because people just quit when an old map comes on.
I've never had that happen. When you play on a b2k server the only maps in rotation are b2k maps.
Nah, after awhile it rotates out.

It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?

this guy is probably not taking into account, that you have to earn certain things for your jet that your helicopter is already equipped with. such as lock on missiles, flares, etc. the jet is great for out running anything, then doubling back and taking it out with machine gun as long as you know how to aim with them.
I'll admit to a newb, the helicopter is superior, it fires lock on missiles, a row of 10 air to surface missiles that reload very quickly, has flares, etc. really, to be good with a jet, you have to have skill. if you have skill, you can dominate the frigging map though.
on a side note, anyone have fun with the mortar team? I for one love seeing someone placing mines, I often target the mines, which take out the mine and usually the person placing it both at the same time, it's a shit load of fun.

I Fucking Love Jets!!!!
They really need to get rid of the f-35 though, that thing is a bitch. I can usually shoot down the flanker but damn it takes too much extra time to get on their tail and to shake them off my tail. It's a beast for taking out choppers but if your any good with a jet you should at least be able to disable a chopper in 1 pass anyway.
I'm pretty excited to see what kind of DLC their going to have, DICE said they're considering Dino mode. Also a 2143 expansion seems very possible especially after seeing the 2143 easter egg on a B2K map. Battlerecorder is also very likely. Hoping to see some Bad company 2 style hardcore servers though, spotting and mini maps are fucking lame.

Also we NEED Air superiority, the could do like 4 squads against each other wich would work best imo. That would be amazing considering over half my time playing this game I was flying jets.

The f-35 is so sick. You need to work together, get the helis and guys on the ground to take out the flankers real quick, then the harrier can romp serious shit. Nothing like seeing a harrier pop up right over your head while you're on the building like a scene straight out of "True Lies" and just wreck havoc. The helis can then loiter around the enemy air field and make sure the f-35's dont get bothered anymore. team work fellas.

DAMN you guys are making me want to get BF3. And that would be fucking amazing if they released a 2143 expansion pack. BF2142 was my favorite out of all the BF games so far.

f-35 is a beast against infantry, but sometimes I can't get enough time to hover without getting shot at by the flanker. And any good jet pilot isn't going to get taken out by chopper or infantry heat seekers and will take out choppers as soon as they see them. If I'm in a flanker on any of the B2K maps I can usually dominate the sky because there isn't another worth while jet to dogfight.
