Battlefield 3 vs Call of Duty?
- Thread starter Blanca BusaLess
- Start date
Couple questions:
Very fun game BTW (BF3) but so far my D/K (yes, in that order
) is looking pretty bad.
Anyway, obviously the enemy is orange, but what are the difference between the blue and the green allies?
How do you actually exit an online game properly?
I looked today and my "quit" ratio is at 9% but I have never really quit a game. I have attempted to exit at the end of a game but unable to do so and have to let the next map/game load and actually start before able to get to the main menu and exit.

The turtle breach headset *should work for all platforms with a USB port(my wired do)
And the blue allies are team mates, the green are squad mates, you get more points for helping ur squad and spawning off of them.
As far as exiting the game I do it after the next map loads.

Outlaw I too find when in 'countdown till next round screen' you're locked in and can't exit the lobby.
I'm doing same as you, waiting till next round starts and then quitting? Why these don't come with printed manuals I don't know?
Good question on the blue green diffs.
I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. Team Deathmatch is obv but the other ones are difficult to figure out your goal/mission. As far as equipping yourself goes there is zero description of all the little nick nacks? What do I use a radio beacon for? I tossed a health kit (by accident, surprised myself) last night, what's the for? I pushed X last night and accepted 'revival' when I was hurt. Is the health kit for that?
Flying the jets is super cool and confusing. I need alot of practice. You're flying along in one and then your warning lights go off letting you know you just got hit by something and you push circle and bail out, then push X for your chute. While gliding down your guns are active. I flew a helo last night across a map to the battle, bailed out and pulled my chute, two seconds after I landed the Helo came crashing down into a small building and leveled it. There's a map with two cranes. You can climb to the top of either which takes a good five minutes, crawl out on the boom and snipe from there. I sniped somebody on another buildings rooftop from way way away. Used the third mil-dot down after I saw first round hit low. Things like this make BF3 much more of an interaction rather than just playing a game. I laid on top of a rock pile and watched the battle from across a field. It was like watching CNN war clips. You've got guys running around, tanks coming in, armored vehicles pulling up with guys jumping out entering the fight, Helicopters, Warthogs and various jets swooping in or doing battle in the sky. All these things are being controlled by players not the computer.
A pair of VR goggles would be scary with this game.

Blanca, the med kit will heal players (including yourself) giving u points in return. As assault u will unlock the defib paddles pretty quick (first unlock I think) then u can revive players, which awards the same points as a kill and gives a tick back on your team lives count.
Playing the objective will get u the most points and spawning off of squad members (green names) is the most valuable ability IMO.
The support class also can throw down ammo, in bottlenecked areas this will give u alot of points as well.

Thought this might be something to kill productivity at work, Battlefield 3 Radio Beacon Guide | BF3 Radio Beacon Strategy this has more info than just what's stated.
Cool. Thanks for the beacon info.
This guide is what I need but I ain't paying $37 for it.

Cool thanks.
How is that the enemy sees me? When looking down my sights or thru scope does a red triangle appear over me to them?
And how do you measure kill/headshot distance?

That's an empirical process, Blanca. It just comes with experience.Try leading/compensating for drop.
Rainbow there are YouTube vids that claim an exact amount of yards for headshots.
Where are they getting this from?
This video advertises 387m and read comments from others regarding their own distances.

Wow! Watch this one! Guy parachutes down onto the tower, then makes a 961yard shot.

From their game stat's.
I've been wondering the same thing. When looking through the scope (or otherwise that I can locate) it shows no measurement at all that I've seen. The stats don't help much while in a game, and once you change the scopes around it's not like you can just go off of feel much without lots and lots of practice. That much practice online equals a lot of deaths.

Alot of sniping is experience. You have to learn distance based off of size and figure out your aiming. It takes a while. Also have to determine your speeds and figure out the best lead times.
As for descriptions. If you hit square. And assemble your kits or assemble you kits in the my soldier section of main menu. You can see descriptions of everything if you hit triangle. Blanca
As for guides. If you have questions give me a ring tonight and I can answer any questions you may have.
BF3 is very team based so using those team bonus items really help Lu score points. Along with the objectives.

WOW~!~
All I can say is it would take me more than 3 shots to get him. Look at the amount of drop
