Being good at suppression and not getting hit markers from 10 feet away is different. I don't know why anyone would ever use frag rounds.
I can understand how mortars can kill you, even though I don't agree with what they promote. What I can't understand is why you would only want to surpress somebody that's 20 feet away, when normal buckshot or flechette would get you a kill.
Ive officially fell in love with the jet. Ive gotten to the point where when i kill a jet. I can kill it on take off eveytime.. pretty much locking out the other team from jets/heli. And ive heard that the stingers will get a slight nerf (1 stinger missles = 50% health (cant regen without extiungushier) which i kinda like but a good jet pilot will just be out of their range. Heat seekers are only good against helis. ( u are to close to for them to use the flare) but the suck against a decent jet, they will flare and lose the lock and keep u off the lock till they get flares back. Thats why the LMG is amazing, kill everything in 1 clip... now when i unlock the HMG for the jet... its OVER. I got to say practice your jet skills it pays off in spades.

Meh, jets turned out to be just what I thought they would be: a distraction. For infantry, jets pose no threat. And infantry is ultimately what wins games. Sure, it's nice to have someone with good jet skills to take out pesky choppers, but tanks can do that pretty easily as well. I'm sure it's fun and helps loads with your K/D, but being skilled with a jet just isn't that important to me. The best thing about jets, imo, is the atmosphere they bring into the game. It's awesome to be running toward and objective, and see a jet scream overhead. Or see one spiraling out of control and crash into the ground with a huge explosion. It just doesn't seem like they alter the way the rest of the players play the game. Now, when I start playing against people with guided missiles that blow up tanks like they're made of plastic, I might change my mind.
il agree that its not goot against infantry but a tank is and Heli is. Instead of having your team taking our own tanks and Heli's 1 good jet can nullify all their armor/heli. 1 dedicated to a jet = 2-3 tank/helis so if in essence your wasting 1 player in a jet they are wasting 3 in vehicles that wont last long to a jet and some good engineers on the ground. Unless Shaddo is in a tank then i just stay away from him... he scary. Not having an opposing enemy in a Heli is a big deal. when im in a heli everything is tag its liek a UAV with a turrets.
I applied, it's Blakem0ney92. I've been whoring the M249 the most so far. Thermal scope, bipod, and extended mag. It's just beautiful.
QFT. WTF is this ****? 195k to next recon unlock, which is recon service star 2?! Is there something after that?
Yea I'm not too sure I'm in love with the campaign gameplay, but I'm finding the story pretty interesting(which doesn't happen in most games)
I think that means you unlocked everything in recon, weapon/gadget wise, but I'm not sure. Try going into 'My Soldier' and seeing if there are any things you haven't unlocked yet.
Getting a service star for a class means you have unlocked literally everything for it, kapeesh? Also if DICE had any sense, they would add a map exclusive to an air superiority gametype just as they did with 1943. In this way players can **** around with jets without being absolutely useless.
That's what I've been dreading, ugh... Anybody good at flying helicopters so I don't have to do it? I can't fly for ****.
Hah dreading what? Air superiority or service stars? If the latter, don't worry too much about the EBR because from what I hear the SKS is loads better.
