I agree with the overused RPG sections. The map with the tunnel is just a RPG fest. I usually try and get in the chopper, scoot over the mountain and barrage the idiots all lined up at the hallway entrances. Either that or go and capture the spawn behind them. That map should have had a way of people being able to climb over the hill. Would have added more to the map than just a RPG fest over capture point C. Vehicles would still be restricted to go through the tunnel but it means infantry could go over and create more defensive and attacking strategies. The only maps that really feel battlefield'ish are the open ones like the Canal, Border and oil field maps

Oh the grapple hook was in BF2:Special Forces. Also had zip lines, NV googles, tear gas and gas mask. I managed to play a tiny bit of that but that was ages after it released and the lack of servers made it hard to get any games so I didn't play much at all

The choke point maps are a side effect of the console co-development methinks - lower player count, need choke points to funnel the action. Makes it more MW than BF though IMO.

That's why I'm looking forward to the new maps. I hate metro with a vengeance.

Daramand Peak (the one with the tunnel on conquest I believe) is great for rush, I dont know why they didn't open up the whole thing in conquest. I guess it would be too hard getting back up to the top of the peak, but they could have managed it some way I'm sure.

I hate Metro, it's just a very large COD map really with all the rockets, really if the level hasn't got a vehicle it's not really a battlefield map!

Metro is a bit shit, its unbalanced I think for the team coming from underground, the high ground always wins. 9/10 unless the team is shit which is that 1 out of 10 chance.

Cant wait for the Karkland maps, hopefully they'r ethe ones i posted a while ago from memories of BF2 with the valley and open sand/beach areas those were great.

I agree with Blue the choke maps like Tunnel and Metro are made for the CoD fags on console, cos they can't have more than 12 a side (24p servers) its almost like a death match scenario map. Although, its great for sniping under the dump trucks.

So many times Ive wanted to drive the dump truck or the forklifts in the maps.. I'd love to fork someone in the face (heh) with the forklift.

ha ha, I thought it was just me. It's the one additional thing I would ask for - the ability to drive any vehicle. I would love to drive one of those massive earth movers, with a tank in the back bucket.

Cool. Updates the skyrim profile as well, just in time.

This sums up how the Javelin works in Battlefield 3

Fuck that's funny. I think I've only had one person ever benefit from my SOFLAM and I think he was in a tank

SOFLAM and Javelin combo is useless, everyone knows it until they fix it.
Javelin is well underpowered so no one bothers with it since RPG is faster and seems to work better.

Anyone know when the patch is out? Not that I'm "not playing" cause of the lack of patch (blame bloody skyrim for that), but once it's out I'll be making a concerted effort to get back on.

I watched a vid last night that gave me a "DOH" moment - use the choppers to capture flags in order to level up. DOH! Why didn't I think of that....

Lol, still hard to do though. Being immobile for that length of time is just begging for trouble, especially since your the right height for a tank to have a crack as well. Best way to level up is to actually have a decent gunner riding with you. Circling capture points from a good distance and at the right pace can provide a world of hurt for the lemmings running around in the ground
