Battlefield 3 - No man or vehicle is safe from this dude's rocket skills

DSOGaming writes: "Oooooooookay, now that was a bit of a shock. It's true that I've been trying hard to take down helis and planes with my beloved rocket launcher. But this dude is simply talented. Either that or he's cheating and I doubt that he'd upload such video if that was the case. So, PhaserEvolution has uploaded a video to show off his 'rocket skills' and believe me, you don't want to play against such player. Why you ask? See the video to find out why."

[DonaldBeck]

Fantastic man, add me on psn flamesofhell44. ive realy got to try that sometime! nice video!

[pc_masterrace]

mother of god...this dude is skillful with that rocket thingy.

[malol]

idk
but it seems his lag is helping him !
like he shoot and you see no projectile / rocket
few seconds after it hits like WTF !!

bare in mind rockets are faster than that !!

EDIT
after looking at that for multiple times
seems legit
well that's scary

[ZombieNinjaPanda]

@Malol

...Video editing.

[Solid_Malone]

whoa, this guy is amazingly talented, check his battle report out from battlelog:

http://battlelog.battlefiel...

[Perjoss]

did you see his score on that battlelog page?? Its over 9000!

[LackTrue4K]

now thats what i call an "online murder"

[Spitfire_Riggz]

That was really sweet! Also love the AKS-74u with the iron sights!

Edit: Oh my god that last shot with the stationary AT.. are you joking???

[Spenok]

Thats exactly what i was thinking. I was like "NO F'ing Sh1T!"

I mean im decent with a rocket... gotta love me some engineer, but this guy puts me to SHAME!!!

[trancefreak]

Ya I just fling them out there and pray I hit something besides open dirt

[Perjoss]

No, no I think he was serious.

[Intentions]

That's PC btw.

OT: Pretty sweet vid, the music fitted so well with it.

[SignifiedSix]

You do realize he was playing on the pc, right?

[KillerPwned]

PC is the way to go if you wanna have the skills to do stuff like this. Battlefield on the PC is amazing the aiming is a lot better when I play on PC compared to PS3 I do a lot better on PC.

[solar]

probably old school Rocket Arena guy. nice shots, far more impressed with the very long distance hits.

[HellzAssassin]

Exactly what I was thinking... probably an old school pro Quake/UT Rocket player... Damn good hits... Very impressive.

[Perjoss]

"probably an old school pro Quake/UT Rocket player"

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of CoD players suddenly cried out "what's Quake...?"

[StraightPath]

Oh my....THIS GUY IS CMPLETELY AMAZING BEAST PLAYER

[Lior]

Now that's a noob!

[SKUD]

Actually these kills are more harder to achieve. The sniper is now the new NOOB class. That and anyone using the tactical light. In some matches the anti-tank keeps everyone honest and moving IMO.

[Clarence]

Recon class is the hardest class to level up with if your just killing. I get most my points by scouting the enemies for my team. I snipe when I think it will help.

[Jayjayff]

How is recon the noob class ? people just hate on recon for the sake of it nowadays, takes way more skill to get the shots and like stated above it is the hardest to level up.

[megacowdung]

Have u ever tried sniping? It's freaking hard. Sniping takes skill. But i agree with the tactical light, nooby.

[SpaceFox]

How the hell does that make him a noob? Do you have any idea how insanely hard it is to pull that off? And he takes less than a second to aim and gets a hit on the first try every time.

That's crazy. Mad props to this guy, just plain skilled.

Next time you call someone a noob know wtf youre talking about.

[gcolley]

baited

[MidnytRain]

Don't be so easy, dude.

[rickhunter89]

makes me not wanna play

[josephps3]

I know what you mean. I was thinking, "what the hell man, what chance do I have if there are guys like this playing online. I'm just cannon fodder." Why even bother trying, I'm never ever going to get close to his skill level.

Ummm is EA going to have Bots for mere mortals without superhuman skills?

[SpaceFox]

Pshh, this guy's one in a million. Chances of you running into somebody like this are really slim. Saying you dont wanna play just cause there are people out there better than you is pretty sad.

[Elwenil]

Not to mention this is all edited together and probably comes from who knows how many hours of footage. Yes, it does take skill to pull off shots like this but luck plays a little into it also since the RPGs fly so slow and you never know when the pilot may make a quick turn. If I was recording all my games I could probably edit together 30 or so MBT cannon kills on aircraft that would make me look like I'm super badass but in the end it would be 30 kills out of 150 misses, lol.

[bwazy]

How do we know thats theres no becon on those jets/heli's?

[SLEDGE]

Cause there are not any becons on those heli's...
Cause the dart was left back at Bad Company, and is staying there, the RPG-7 in BF3 cant lock on to anything, it goes straight with a "bullet drop".

[bwazy]

Was thinking of this, but yeah apparently doesn't work with the RPG-7. Still though some of the shots look a little bit like they shouldn't have hit haha.

[krisq]

Yeah, but someone can paint a target for him.

[negative]

Yea I'm calling BS on this video!!!!!!!

[NCAzrael]

@Krisq

That only works with the Javelin. The RPG-7 and the SMAW do not lock on to anything. Considering this guy has over 800 combined RPG-7 and SMAW kills I'm going to say this guy is pretty legit.

[krisq]

I stand corrected then. :)

[spektical]

uhhh i've gotten kills like this before vary many times.. nothing surprising.

i wonder how many takes it took him, if it didnt take many i'd be impressed otherwise its just a matter of filming all your games and using an engineer at all times.

[chaldo]

proof?

[spektical]

play with me on ps3 ;)

extravegant.

[RioKing]

I wish the console version looked that beautiful :/

[theEXPATRIATED]

Good god damn. :o

[Grimhammer00]

This is intimidating for sure. But, my issue lies in fun balance. Notice I say fun instead of game.
24plyr conquest is a ghost town.

[SweatyFlorida]

.

[SweatyFlorida]

....

[scrambles]

Ok... hes better than i thought. only 400 kills with rpg and smaw but he does play engineer 80% of the time out of 200 hours = 160 hours as an engineer which is a lot of practice >.> makes me wish theyd do something so people would stop being engineers 24/7 like nerf the carbines so they dont kill people at the same distance as assault rifles make them weaker then maybe people would be assault or support.

http://battlelog.battlefiel...

[rbluetank]

mad skills. the lock on rockets is just bad. this is why these shots are top dog! mad props to this dude!

[ginsunuva]

Easy stuff. I take down two birds with one rocket.

[360ICE]

Back in Nam I used to take down two rockets with one bird, but this guy isn't too shabby either ;)

[solidworm]

GUy is awesome but how many times does he miss trying that shit???????????????

[Shackdaddy836]

I'm betting he just plays a ton and shoots rockets all the time. I can probably make a video like this if I had enough time and I used rockets every time I saw a heli or jet...

[eak3]

Im sure he misses a lot so what?? I dare say to pull off some of those shots he's making even once would send a tingle down a players leg. This guy does it with decent regularity it seems. Good for him. Some people just have talent when it comes to this kind of stuff good for them.

[trenso1]

Agreed making a shot like that even once is exciting, it only happened to me once in bc2 but I was still fun to hip fire a heli

[leogets]

Well ive tried this shit since release and never connected.and im quite handy with a rocket with a stationary target miles away.he has skillz.born to pwn I guess. Well done that man

[co0p11]

This is easily the best skill video I have seen so far with any fps. (other then old school cs vids) People that don't play this game don't realize how hard some of those kills are. Last kill was sick.

[N4Flamers]

yep top notch and the music syncs up to it making it a great video.

[Kishin]

it takes skills to be good with a rocket launcher now? lol...

[Gazondaily]

Tear yourself away from COD and play Battlefield 3 and you'll find that the answer is yes. Or you could just watch the video above and realise how sarcasm can make some people look like idiots.

[Kishin]

haha... i don't care about fps, im merely trolling. the last fps i played was GoldenEye on the n64 back in 1997 ;)

The video is definitely nice ;)

[WillGuitarGuy]

He deserves a marksman bonus for taking out those snipers.

[sovietsoldier]

im not taking away what this guy did because those are crazy skillful shots but this video shows how bad either the lag or the hit detection is. you can see many of those shots go past the target sometimes by large distances. i m sure he would still make crazy shot no matter what.

[Silly gameAr]

Regular one man army.

[Holeran]

I'm not great at this game but I'm sure if I recorded every game I played and edited it later I could look godly in alot of situations. Sometimes I catch myself saying holy sh*t did I just do that?

[NCAzrael]

Go look at his stats on Battlelog and then say you could do this. Considering his accuracy with both the SMAW and RPG-7 is above 55%, and he's pulling off shots like this, I'd say he deserves some props.

[Bolts]

Amazing skill. This isn't a noob game like CoD where the map is the size of a Happy Meal. Scoring rocket kills on a moving object like that with bullet drop is extremely difficult.

[KillerPwned]

I fucking swear every single BF game that comes out has at least one guy that is just insanely crazy with a rocket launcher....

Off topic:
I wanna see a tournament 8 best players in COD vs 8 best players in BF3. 2 games in COD and 2 games in BF3 winner takes whatever the grand prize is.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

I bet this guy doesnt even know what a stinger is.

[frostypants]

The RPG is actually better if you can connect with it, as it's not susceptible to the overly-effective flares.

[NCAzrael]

According to his stats he's used them a few times, but only got one kill. As frosty said, the flares make Stingers almost useless unless there are several people firing one after another.

[bobrea]

The part where he killed two people from far away with an AK and then hit a chopper twice was nuts.

[frostypants]

The only part that made me suspicious of if he did this cleanly is when he fires at that helicopter as it is coming over the TV station towards the end. He fired before he could even see it, and it's hard to pinpoint the exact location of choppers by their sound alone. I dunno...shady, man, shady...

[NCAzrael]

Look at it again and keep an eye on the minimap. The chopper was spotted, so he could see where it was going. As long as you know how to judge positioning from the minimap it's easy to see where it will be when it comes into view.

[Honky Kong]

that gave me a sudden urge to have a smoke

[yuval152]

I want to watch him play Halo....

[mrmancs]

possessed gamer lol?

[Dubfella]

Ive been using the rocket launcher for ages now and im great at taking out tanks but can never get the damn choppers down but maybe it's alot harder to do it on PS3.

[taijutsu363]

Lol maybe if them copters wasnt trying to kill him he wouldnt show you whats up! lol

My favorite part of this video (Aside from Rocket-beasting)is killing them mofos on the crane thats trying to snipe! Thats whats up.
