[PS3] [FOOT] Battlefield 3 Thread

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Game is legit. It is a big adjustment aiming-wise from MW2 but I am getting the hang of it, and the game definitely rewards just as much by playing the objectives instead of just k/d ratio whoring. I found myself near the top a lot in points by trying to capture and defend points.

Looks like MMMMMMMMMMMMBeer created it already. Just search for FOOT in the platoon section and request to join.

Platoon section?

Platoon section?

Also, I'm not sure that it will put your clan tag up for you when you join the platoon, but if you go to your profile on Battlelog and click edit, you can manually enter the clang tag.

im a call of duty player but i been trying to get in this but ive been having a hard time, is alot different and im very confused.

every other game it switches me between the m16 and the ak47 and i cant switch back to the m16 if they give me the ak47 so it kind of confuses me and keeps adding attchments automatically and stuff. really confused...anyone care to insight for me?

You don't get the same weapons choices when you switch sides. Like you get the M16 when you are with the US troops. It switches you back and forth every match. Before you spawn, you can edit your load out to whatever you want it to be depending on what you have unlocked.

Played with a squad earlier from offtopic...a little teamwork=domination.

Finally got it an hour or so ago, but been having some internet issues. How long did the update take for you guys to download?

Pretty much. Me, Twigg, and Rylo played today and with us sticking together and working together, we were dominating the conquest matches. Teamwork also ends up making it a lot more fun than just running around Rambo style.

Only a few minutes.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Only a few minutes.

Same.

I was right behind someone earlier, ready to take their dog tags, then forgot what button to hit, it isn't the same as COD. So I proceed to freak out pressing all these buttons, then he turns around, I freak out more and just unload on him, thankfully I still got him, but no dog tags :rofl:

If you have to use that battlelog site, I cant do it. It wont let me log in.

Did you try the "Sign in using your PSN ID" option?

 

[kyhadley]

For some reason even though on my laptop my internets are super fast, my PS3 will not have the same results (taking over an hour for the first update). I can't figure it out.

Yup.

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

Yup.

:dunno:

Its not your internets, it is the PS3 servers. Things went smoothly for me, but I downloaded it at 3 in the afternoon. Gameplay was smooth other than a few hiccups here and there.

 

[kyhadley]

Blade, how long did it take when you downloaded it?

 

[kyhadley]

Finally! It only took 3 hours to get into a match.

That last match I played last night with Pad, FirstTimer and Rylo (I think) was infuriating. I have no idea how we went from being up 120+ to 60+. I guess I jinxed us when I made the comment about destroying them and all we needed to do was play defense. We had all three of the flags for like the first five minutes of the game and I was thinking out loud, "Do these guys know how to play this game?" It pissed me off because it seems that the importance of controlling flags in the beginning of a match is far less important than controlling them at the end. We had all three of the flags and it seemed like it wasn't affecting their tickets at all. Then they finally take over ONE flag and it seemed like our tickets were going down as fast as theirs. Then they took two of the flags and we were losing tickets like a siv. Next thing I know we were losing 40+ to 30+.

Hopefully I can track down the game at my old apartment and can play tonight.
