haha, I use it for the exact opposite reason. I use it to take out campers who stay in corners or try to hide in bushes.... As long as they dont screw with the quality at short range, I guess it wont be that bad.Quote:

I think it's wrong that one guy can down a jet just like that; it should require team work. If we get rid of the ability to throw off a lock with flares, you can have one guy fire a missile, have it get flared, and as soon as the flares go off, the next guy fires his missile. As it stands, you can't do this because the flares not only confuse your missile, but they also throw off your buddy's target lock.
On occasion I can keep a target lock even after flares have been popped, but I need to aim ahead of where the flares are launched to prevent it from losing the lock. If the target moves to a more desirable position before my target lock disengages, I can fire the missile without it being fooled by flares. I also read of an exploit where you can quickly switch to any other weapon and back while the flares launch to keep your target lock. I've never tried it, though. It seems too tedious.
This is going to make your insides turn to black puddings, Warsaw (especially @ 1:37, it's like the New York cinematic from World in Conflict without the helicopters going down):
I've never seen that happen before, but there had to be 2 engineers in the back of that thing repairing it.
thats such bs right there...i would have been rippin pissed if that were me
And shit like that is precisely why BF3 multiplayer is straight up balls compared to BC2 right now. I have seen that happen with tanks, too.
Game wasn't finished.
Normally that wouldn't happen, but since the engineers are in it does happen. Well, I guess it's gonna happen more and more now that the stinger missiles are buffed again and flares get nerfed again.
Oh, and here's the other problem: guy was playing on a regular server, not a Hardcore one.
I still maintain that regular is garbage, even in BC2.
I preferred Hardcore in BC2 at first, but then I switched to regular because DICE broke the game so bad. They fixed it but I played regular for so long that I don't want to go back to hardcore. Also, I don't see why there needs to be a hardcore mode in BF3. All the features in regular mode were present in previous BF games and you can turn on FF if you want.
-Regenerating vehicle health
-Regenerating infantry health
That's why. Those were NOT in BF2 or earlier. They completely fuck the game over.
Oh fuck, yeah. Forgot to mention that. You can still turn them off, though.
