Battlefield Tri-hard

so i still havent quite figured out why there were 3 (now 4) variants of the 1911, when all that changes is the attachment (or lack thereof) in a game where every primary weapon has 3 customizable attachment slots. also, is nobody going to mention how the introduction of the 1911 S-Tac now completly invalidates both the 1911S and 1911Tac? or how the 1911 bare had no real advantage to begin with? and what of that suppressed .44 or the alleged 93r with a laser sight?

is there a legitimate reason for any of this? or is this just one of those things dice wanted us to overlook?

DICE decided to be retarded and make different weapons with different attachments, instead of doing them just like primary weapons. Funny thing is that only the default versions of the weapons have dogtags, so the other weapons aren't really worth using anyway. Luckily the S-Tac does have tags though, so i'll be using it religiously now that I unlocked it.

I'm cool too guise:

I don't know what you changed in your record and render settings, but your videos are actually watchable now.

Lol, found better settings to use and they seem to be working out nicely. Only thing is Premiere CS 5.5 likes to crash a lot on Windows 8., so I save practically every time I edit something.

Goddamnnnn:

Should record me flying a little bird more often, CTF is the ultimate noob stomping ground when i'm in one. That and Rush.

Just recorded me playing a round. 21 killstreak in little bird, got doubles and one multikill from derps in a humvee :D Will upload once Premiere is done downloading. Here is the round: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3...478/297761203/

post on /r/Battlefield3. They love that shit (the video).

I, however, just came out of the most intense and most fun BC2: Vietnam match of my life. As you can imagine, it happened on Hill 137. God that map is well made and visually amazing. It was one of those matches where each side came down to 20 tickets and the only remaining factor was who could kill who the fastest. I was already in the middle of the map (playing as US) in the rocks in front of B. When I head that horn and saw the ticket count I knew shit was on. Right away I moved up to a friendly Assault and we had the high ground. Immediately I saw a couple NVA hiding behind some rocks about 100m to the right of A (from my view). I gunned down the idiot that was standing up with his upper torso exposed and then used grenades to get the other guy behind cover. Then out of nowhere a bunch of NVA assholes rush our position, kill the other dude, but I manage to gun down two of them with my AK and the last with my pistol. Looking back at the ticket count we were at 14-3 and I knew then that the rest of my team weren't retards. They stayed in position and stayed alive. Two more NVA died and the final ticket was claimed by our dominant flag caps. Was awesome. First time using the AK-47, too. I had no idea what kind of power and accuracy lay within that thing. The best part is that both teams recognized that it was an extremely well played round. I guess the small community that BC2 has left does appreciate shit. Man, I really wish I Fraps'd that. Most fun I've had in a BF game in well over 6 months. I've played plenty of BF3 with friends and never experienced that much fun and this was with pubbers.

Post-game carnage:

The more BC2: Vietnam I play the more I want to say "Fuck Battlefield 3!" And it's pretty much true. In BC2, when you land a hit, you know it. You don't just see a hit marker to tell you. You feel it. The way the animation plays and the enemy's reaction. You just know and it feels good.

ive got a group of guys i play BC2 with all the time, mostly on weekends. my ingame name is TheKillerDonut if you wanna play with us.

epic story within:

we joined a round of conquest on arica harbor. me and my friend joe were on one team, and my other two friends ben and pat were on the other. we were triple capped and the score was 50 tickets us 250 them. joe and i made a push to point A, capped A while the other team battled / baseraped at C, then we pushed to B. we got about half way through burning B flag when ben and pat came over and contested the burn.

i was in one of the upper houses overlooking B. i see pat moving around in one of the lower houses and take a shot at him. im using the NS2000 with slugs and the rex. i hit him, he starts yelling "oshi", and i start lining up another shot. he starts shooting back with an mg36. i peg him again, still dont kill him. he manages to drop me right before i fell behind cover. i see hes running body armor. joe immediately revives me, i get up, and slug pat again. hes keeps shooting. i pull the rex out, land 5 of my 6 shots on him while dancing in and out of cover. he still doesnt go down, and by now ive now ive figured out that hes sitting on a health pack. i pull my ns2k back out and slug him with my last shot. still no kill. he's now come dangerously close to killing me several times, and the only reason i survived was joe's health box.

So i reload, jump down into B, and storm pat's house. by now, more of the enemy has fallen back to B. as im running into the house, i run straight into 4 guys. i slug 2 of them, knife a third, and rex a 4th. ben comes up behind me and shoots me. i spawn back in, finish capping B, then move to C. C is capped with relative ease.

now we're sitting at ~40 tickets, with them 3 capped, and theyre at around 240 tickets. we did not baserape them though, and they fought back hard. we tussled over flags for a while until we were at 13 tickets and they were at 130. i tell joe to "revive everything you see". they start taking B, i shoot two guys running up from the lower construction area, but i get sniped by a third. joe revives me, but dies prompty after. i take his kit (which is also a shotgun), shoot the guy that killed him, rez him, and take back B.

8 tickets us, 50 tickets them. now im thinking "holy shit we might actually do this" and we continue tussling over flags. by now, im rezing everything like crazy. the ticket counts get down to about 5 and 10. then 4 and 7, then 3 and 5. every now and then i hear one of our guys die, and my heart skips a beat, then i hear one of our medics yell "CLEAR" and see the ticket number go back up.

0 us, 1 them. i see two guys coming up the stairs at point B. slug one in the face. 0 - 0. absolutely dripping sweat now, the second guy lights me up as i line up the shot on him. joe is yelling "oh shit oh shit" as he gets shot" and ben is yelling "come on COME ON I SEE YOU" as hes about to kill another of my team mates. holding my breath now, just as i begin clicking and hear the boom of my neostead, the screen fades to black. i have no idea if my last shot actually went off before ben killed his target, or if joe died. i hadent heard the ding sound of achieving a kill.

a second or so later, "your team won!" pops up as the victory music plays, and everyone in the voice call yells "OOOOOHHHHHHHH". we had overcome a 200 ticket gap and won by half a pubic hair. i had to change my shirt afterwards, but god damn. THAT is the kind of round i play this game for. just recalling that game while typing that out got me all pumped up.

of course, that round was surrounded by other rounds where we either clearly dominate the enemy team, or just get base camped the entire round with nobody pushing up. theres way too much team stacking going on in bad company these days. finding a good game is really rare. i recently started using the tank, and i feel pretty confident in my tanking abilities now, but i feel like i havent gotten much of a chance to exercise them, because we're pretty much guarenteed to win the second i get in one.

i'd really like to become an admin on an active server so i could actively balance teams and weed out pricks who just base rape the whole round. we might have more nailbiter rounds like that if i could do that. right now theres just an appaling lack of administration, and the enemy team either ignores or lambasts me when i ask them to balance the teams. i have to disagree with you on that one amit. most of the people i come across still playing this game are collosal pieces of shit :smith:
E: epic story spoilered for length
E2: i guess its also worth it to mention that the NS2000 with slug rounds and magnum ammo is a perfect storm of broken game elements coming together to make THE most op thing in bc2, and really that ive ever seen in any well balanced shooter (so 1887 akimbo in mw2 doesnt count, although this shit is pretty close).
E3 (last one i promise): btw i hit level 50 over the weekend! does the shit bucket apply here too?
