Updates Battlefield 3 Needs ASAP

The award winning franchise from EA / DICE has always been praised for its realistic gameplay and stunning graphics. According to many players, Battlefield 3 is far from being a perfect shooter. What's wrong and what can still be improved?

Agree with all of these, 100%.

1) Kick functions should be reserved for admins and NO ONE ELSE. Not playeed MAG on PS3? Players will kick a player just because they are a squad leader and they want that position.

2) Tank is powerful enough, 1 round will disable a jeep and usually kill all people on board if not leave them with next to 0% health.

3) Can't be arsed to go through those.

4) I never lag or get disconnected. Game has frozen 2-3 times in 250+ hours of gameplay.

5) LMGs shouldn't have ANY use unless prone, its a SUPPORT weapon and should act as such. Players getting headshots from the hip at 50m is something these guns shouldn't be capable of.

6) Jets underpowered, you having a laugh?

7) Alongside engineer, assault easily has the best rifles with the M320 option and the chance to revive players. Again, how is that underpowered?

??? Underpowered Jets ??? Looks like you don´t fly at all.....................

No way are Bipods OP, They are the most unreliable things in the game. They SHOULD give a much greater bonus compared to what they currently do. However, I do think they should only be available for the Support and recon class.

I for one like the game as it is now.

[DasTier]

Agree completely, all these weapon changes are just done because a minority group of players complain. They want guns they use to get boosted and ones they don't to be nerfed. All these pandering updates to weapons piss me off.

Well, I agree with all of them other than the voting one. In quite a lot of games with voting systems like that it doesnt work. People just vote yes as soon as the voting thing comes up without looking at the persons stats or anything. As soon as somebody brings you up, you're out. A better idea would be vote to change map, or mode or something.

Inwant vote system pc so pc gamers can try to eliminate aimbot users.

Underpowered jets?

im sorry what? they increased the accuracy of the pod rockets, flares now reload faster, and the gun has longer range.

learn to play seriously.

I just want the game fixed so that I can actually play through a full 1000-ticket game without my console freezing.

That, or have the ability to see in the server list immediately which servers have altered ticket levels, so I know which servers to avoid until they fix it.

[caseh]

Not considered the fact its your console thats potentially f*cked and not the game?

I've played in games that have gone on for hours recently and I can't recall the last time my console froze.

[rataranian]

I've got a brand new slim and it happens to me all the time. Other people I know too. Somethings wrong with it. Not sure if it's crappy internet or the servers or what.

[chadachada123]

It happens to both PS3s and 360s, and to both new and old consoles. My console is only a year old, and my issue is one shared by many people with almost always the same scenario:

Playing 1000+ ticket game, usually on Metro, or 300+ ticket Rush. Near the end of the game, it freezes.

Seriously, just Google it instead of blaming it on the console. My 360 never freezes for any other game, never freezes under any other scenario. It's SOME form of glitch or memory problem.

Are you one of the types that says that PS3 users don't experience controller lag just because YOU personally don't, or the type that says the same about Skyrim frames-per-second drops?

@chadachada123

I have an old 40GB PS3, have played around 250+ hours and had the game freeze on me a handful of times. I honestly can't recall the last time it froze and I play in 1000+ ticket games often.

I'm running the same proprietary hardware as all these other players, same firmware and same patched version of the game. If you worked in a technical role supporting a game like BF3 and everyone had the exact same setup yet a minority were experiencing technical issues what would you be pointing the finger at? Going on that logic you would obviously be looking at the hardware as the cause of the issue, not the game.
