Indeed, most of my score in BF3 is probably from healing and reviving. I generally often notice that doing everything BUT killing people makes your score climb up much faster.

Most of my score comes from jets, because i usually spend my time giving air to ground support.... only problem with that is that NO ONE pings enemies in BF3 so im constantly blind unless im playing with a friend who can ping enemies.

I've been flying jets a lot more and I can confirm this, so you usually just end up circling around the map until another jet or AA picks you up.

I always spot enemies, and multiple times even if the enemy is already spotted. Guess I'm one of the rare few then.
Apparently, Valve can't make games beyond the number 2.
I think the only time we'll get a Source SDK code update is when it starts having purchasable hats integrated, i.e. hatconomy.

Please do not make assumptions you are not knowledgeable enough to make - that just backfires on yourself.

I abuse my Q-key too, don't know why more people aren't doing it, you'll have an enemy clearly visible on the map and HUD and when someone kills it, you'll get 10 points spot bonus.

I get more points in healing than I do kills, probably because Battlefield is more about doing the menial stuff as opposed straight up LOL KILL EVERYTHING THAT MOVES. But don't tell that to the rushing retards, I need my points.

My CPU is too weak for BF3 (Core 2 Duo E8400), so I have to play on Xbox 360. Spot button is /conveniently/ the select button, so it's harder to spot all the time. If I switch to a Razer Onza controller, then it'll be much easier..

Hey guys; is 2Mbps down and 1 up with ~150 ping good enough for BF3?

The 150 ping is rather worrying.

moral of the story about bf3 multiplayer being a team player is more rewarding then a solo wolf.

It's my phone's ping. I plan on tethering it so I can play.


My home ISP's ping is ~1.3

Seconds.

Exactly my point. Tethering would introduce additional latency since phone processors aren't that fast. But I guess you're out of options anyway. :<

Even on servers with 70+ ping I get stuttering and my sound and models keep clipping out >:
