well i'm getting to the point of giving up and quitting. The game is exactly like COD but with vehicles. People can see me across the map with a damn SCAR and hammer me down. But when I can get anywhere to shoot anyone it takes a half a clip. this game is really starting to suck

True

If these games were realistic they wouldn't need the red hit indicator because one bullet would kill you.

Pretty much one missile would down your aircraft, and one tank round would send you to the respawning point.

You'd also need to complete a side mission before you jumped in your jet, that would involve 300 hours of flying time.

Or more for the helicopter.

Also beyond the scout, sniper and engineer class, they would need a truck driver, and field cook who would drive around in a truck serving hot lunches while arty screamed over your head.

Don't get me started in that you would need at least 1000 players to man your aircraft carrier and some poor nub would end up on deck 16 washing everyones streaked underwear for his first deployment.

Realism sucks.

I have came to the conclusion that this game sucks. Cant do crap even if I try to camp, or out flank, or try to just shoot someone.

I'm going to quit playing it and sell the pos

Then looking at a plane barreling right at you and knowing that your life as an infantry man is so critical and important that your enemy is willing to crash a 100 million dollar jet directly into you.

pffft If only I was able to get airborne long enough to fire a missle. ... I wish there was somewhere i could practice flying on the xbox . Everytime i do a server search and its a game of like 5/24 ... it never lets me in.


And for PIM... this game is so much harder then COD ... I actually do decent and keep it around 1 on the K . Its a lot different because on COD I am a run and gunner. You cant do that in this game at all.

Not only that but if you crash your plane, you end up flying a cargo plane full of plastic dog poop out of downtown.

And I'm seeing way to many flybys in the videos for this game.

Maybe so, but there is no teamwork at all on xbl. no one works together and the other team seems to unload one round and kills me but I unleash the whole cannon on the tank and get hit markers and he runs right through it. Meanwhile the driver of the apc leaves and I'm stuck in the middle of the battlefield with no back up.

The game sucks, I have a clan I play with on COD and it's much better teamwork than this garbage.

Try playing on hardcore, and use the mk11 mod or the SVD. Those guns served me well in the demo.

CoD's playstyle is not going to work in BF games. If you are alone, you will die. If you don't see your enemy first, you will die. If you camp you will die.

You suck at it so that makes the game suck? Don't be sour just because your awful at the game.

First of all, play hardcore games they're way better.

Secondly, this game is nothing like Call of Duty. It's a FPS and that is about as similar as they get.

The one thing is really pissing me off though with this game is there are NO Hardcore servers. There's a total of 49 and they are always full and EA never opens any new ones. Then each one has a queue, you'll sit in the queue for 15 minutes, then finally you are able to play and it "disconnects you from the EA server".

Freaking stupid.

Mean while there are about 90+ pages (1000+ severs) for normal games.

WTF DICE/EA. This is BS. Normal is brutal.
