I digress; Battlefield 3 is an amazing game. Despite previous opinions, now that I've finally gotten the hang of it, found a map I enjoy and a weapon that suits me, I find that I enjoy the game so much more. I discovered that with a PP-2000 with a silencer, ACOG, and laser sight or tactical light (assault kit) on Kharg Island is where I shine. Getting at least 10 kills and no more than 5 deaths a match, I find myself progressing through the ranks at an admirable speed.
I discovered through a video on YouTube that Kharg Island is the best map for beginners - close quarters and all the hecticness makes for a good getting used to. With a shotgun in hand, you're good to go. However, I found I make much more progress with my aforementioned PP-2000 with attachments thanks to the rapid fire and lack of need to get directly up close.
Although, I must admit, it gets annoying going through a good round of team deathmatch on Kharg Island and then the next round is in a map I can't tolerate, have to go back to the menu and reselect a quick match on Kharg Island yet again, only to be thrown in a match that's about to end. I wish they'd implement some sort of system that would allow you to keep being put into matches of a specific map once the previous match ended. But that's a stretch that I'm asking for.
But as I was saying, I just think it took some getting used to before I was able to see the game for what it is - an excellent first person shooter with a lot to offer. I'm still trying to understand the basics of being a recon solider and discovering good spots to use a sniper rifle and get used to using one, but one step at a time.

If you're playing BF3 for TDM, you're doing it wrong.
TDM on Battlefield is insanely addictive. My personal favorite though is Rush. It's big and open, the way Battlefield is supposed to be, but still fast paced like TDM. People who say BF is slower than MW definitely haven't even played it in this case. I've honestly found BF3 to be MUCH faster under the right circumstances.
Just getting used to the weapons and different maps, but i have to say that the game is really irritating imo UNTIL you open up attachments for your weapons. Its amazing what a red dot sight attachment can do for any gun with high recoil. Thats when I really started enjoying the multiplayer.
Well I've unlocked a hell of a lot of gun upgrades for many different types of guns. I started out only playing with Assault class for a long while until I became frustrated with the lack of anti-tank, and anti-air teammates on almost every match. I switched to Engineer class and started wreaking havok with tanks and buggies. Problem I have is the anti-air. its quite irritating to say the least. I aim at flying object until it locks on, then I wait for it to use its flares. Once it does then I can get a free shot on it, but I have to do so quickly before it gets another round of flares. Most of the time, two things happen it either flies away or it will not use its flares waiting me out. Knowing that the only way to shoot down air targets is to wait for the flares to go off so it won't use them.
One time I waited like at least 10 seconds and once I finally said ok I'll go ahead and shoot, as soon as the rocket got a little close to hitting it then he used the flares. Ohh and if I am able to actually get a hit on one then I'm not done yet I need another hit if not two more.
By that time I'm getting shot at by ground troops or tanks. Ohh and the javelin only has two rounds, it usually takes two rounds to kill a tank anyways. Then your left with nothing but a repair tool which can kill a stupid tank, but normally the tank drives off or the driver gets out and shoots me down real quick. I can steal the tank the second he gets out, but once I do I usually get blown up by C4 or rockets.
I'm so tired of getting shot at before I even take off with a jet or heli. Can ppl please switch classes and shoot down flying objects or blow up tanks. If at least a couple ppl try at the same time it's easy there's not enough flares or repairing that can save em at that point. But does that ever happen no. I guess this game is alot like Left 4 Dead in the sense that you really do need friends to play the damn thing. Sadly I play on my PS3 with no headset and no friends. All my friends are on my 360 and they are always playing MW3. Screw that!
