    Can connect to servers with 5 bar but still get incredibly laggy games.

    This fecking multi-kill assignment is very tough on Xbox. Got one so far but it seems incredibly difficult to do. I've maybe got 10 in total in the past.

    Try playing a bit of close quarters on 64 size servers, usually quite easy to mow down squads capturing a flag with an lmg ;)

    Edit, sorry I just realised you're on Xbox, you could still try it though!

    Just cant be bothered driving it around the map .

    I reckon the best way would be to only play maps with has the transport chopper, stinger or jav the sh!t out of it. That's what i'm trying anyway

    Got 3 today. Couple of rounds on Metro with C4. Really have to push it and I'm not much use to my team. People seem to crowd the stairs or the right corner from A to B.

    Could probably do the same on close quarters but I'm not mad for that game mode.

    Im not really qq'ing but is the L96's hit detection broken?
    running it with an acog and sb seems at times i just cant get a hit marker even if i look for the chest on stationary targets
    im not talking long range here i mean 100m tops
    no problems with the m40 :/ its weird

    anyone else getting annoyed at these poxy pointless assignments?
    guess im kind of happy the EOD bot isn't involved this time...

    I've given up on them. What's the point in forcing yourself to use a **** gun for a camoflage option on said **** gun?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,178 ✭✭✭hypermuse


    I've only just started to try and complete the assignments. Any I did complete in the past I did so by chance, never really bothered with them before! Its more just for something to do for now tbh!

    After a few days I've realised how pointless some of them are.. like you said, camo for a $hite gun than your not gonna use! Also I could not give a damn what colour my gun is.. can barely even see it most of the time!!

    But for some reason I'll probably grind it out.. Except for the chopper and jet ones.. They will be forever beyond me!!

    Playing on my lonesome for the last couple of days (during late afternoons till the lads I usually play with hop on) has really stressed the point that 95% of the random teammates I get paired up with are complete and utter ****e, while I get put up against clans, 100 rank players, objective focus players, etc, etc.

    I'll say it once, I'll say it again, there's little to no difference between the majority of COD and Battlefield players.. no matter how much the latter like to think.

    I hear ya.. Tis tough going without playing in a squad with like minded players!

    Had a go of SQDM last night... Nightmare!!

    Noticing alot of people using a shotgun with a slug lately. Its like a rifle.

    Pretty much a one shot kill.
    Once you get used to the drop they are good at distance as well.

    I know, I know, I berate myself for doing it, just annoys me having them hang over me after each match!
    you end up not playing the objective and doing stupid things just to get them.

    Edit : the shotgun with slug is fantastic when you get used to it.

    *waits for shotgun with slug to get nerfed in next patch... *

    It has been like that for a a good six months now so I doubt it will be nerfed.

    4/5 multikills done. C4 in the locker rooms on Metro. 4 kills come up on the killfeed. I get four kills. On my screen, it comes up as a triple kill and a single kill for no apparent reason. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuu..... When this is done I'm never doing another assignment again.

    I have tried this but as you don't get a kill for knifing I find I'm just stalled on the same **** gun.

    I'll keep at it though.

    Find a gunmaster server that uses a non-standard weapons rotation, limit yourself to 16 man servers (or less if possible) and you should get top5 quickly enough. I did it once, and will never play that game type again.

    I think this assignment just unlocks the Mk5 doesnt it? Not that great a weapon to be honest.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,109 ✭✭✭MaxSteele


    Sorry I only started playing BF3 online 3 weeks ago.

    Probably been already been asked but how the fook do you control the MG49 SAW and M27 machine guns and the massive recoil lift on fully auto fire ?

    Seriously. I spend entire clips trying to hit moving targets where with the other classes are not even near as bad.

    I find the russian and german made weapons much more steady and on target.

    AK'S and RPK's over the M16's AND M4's any day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq


    Unlock the foregrip (if available) and fire small bursts instead. Once you get used to it you can full auto on a fairly small area but its never completly accurate

    Light machine guns are only really effective when using a bipod (unless someone is right in front of you in which you can 'shoot from the hip' to kill them)

    Equip the bipod my good man and watch as you'll tear people down :P If you havent unlocked the bipod yet you'll just have to keep at it until you do.

    I finished top 5 about an hour ago. It's a long time coming but at least it's done now.

    I'll probably never play GM again lol.....

    I hate the pp-19. Its a terrible weapon in the game. trying to do the assignment for it right now. It feels like you have to unload 50 bullets just for a kill. I remember it being better ages ago.
