Battlefield 3

They nerfed the IR scope. Campers resume camping.

I was still using it last night with great success. Didn't really even notice anything different.

I'm assuming it still works fine on the night levels. Sounds okay to me.

Today (on PS3) it is different. When you initially scope in everything is bright green, then it slowly fades back to normal. And even then, anyone that shows up is barely visible. It still works, but it is definitely nerfed.

No worries though, I put in MW3 in frustration, and it reminded me how absolutely awfully horrendous their map designs are and I am back on the BF3 bandwagon.

if you can squint right

I've been squinting for years... tell me I haven't been doing it wrong. :smug2:

I didn't think the IR scope was all that great anyways. I felt the limited field of vision was worse than the minimal help in finding enemies. And most of the ones that you wouldn't have seen without the IR are too far away to kill.

Its like they gave campers something to do while everyone else played, because you can't really use it while mobile (too much CQC) and you can only really kill campers with it.

Holo>IR any day.

I wax mfers with the IR. I've already adjusted, just need to scope in earlier. I like it with the engineer class, especially when I tag someone with an RPG that is 300 meters away

The PS3 patch is 758 MB btw. Put some time aside to download that bad boy before you play.

Jesus. It's 167 MB on Xbox.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not since I didn't see anything about this in the patch notes, but I noticed that I now have all of the co-op weapons unlocked. No idea if they simply lowered the score requirements or if this is something that will have to be fixed later.

I have to say that taking down choppers is quite the chore now with the SAMs being nerfed (especially if there is an engineer repairing on board). I spent quite a few

I've also noticed that I'm always equipped with the M9 Tactical as my sidearm no matter how many times I change it in my loadout screens.

PS3 one includes all the Karkland stuff too I think. When I was looking at the filters it showed a bunch of different maps. This also kind of fucked things up while looking for servers though as everything was showing 0 players last night. Had to use the quick match to get into a game.

That would make sense then.

So I was able to exchange my standard 360 edition with the Limited Edition at Best Buy yesterday. I was surprised at how easy it was. I thought they were going to give me a bunch of shit at least.

So I played some Conquest pretty much all night last night with a few cadets from work and a few matches with Brnt. But Brnt's grandmother's internet kept crapping out on him.

So, are there voice chat issues on Xbox like there are on PS3? When I played earlier in the evening I was just using the normal squad chat and it was breaking up every so often. Then when I played later I was using the 360 party chat and there weren't any issues, besides my buddy and Brnt's breaking up on rare occasions but I think that was their respective connections.

Yea. I haven't used the game chat since the first week of launch. Laggy and annoying. First thing my buddies and I do is pop into Party Chat and then squad up.

Cool. Glad to see it's not just me.

[BrntO4Life]

I don't have any issues with in-game chat when I have a decent connection.
