10 tips and tricks to become a better Battlefield 3 player

Battlefield is back. Veterans and newcomers alike are flocking to DICE’s trademark take on combined arms warfare, and already the digital body count is greater than any war in the history of mankind. It’s a lot of fun, but it can also be overwhelming: there are dozens of weapons and class abilities, a healthy assortment of vehicles, intricately detailed maps, and ten times as many unlocks as Bad Company 2. There’s a good chance you’ll be biting the dust a lot when you first log on, so here are ten tips to help you out.

My tips from a BF2 vet to a BFBC2 player

1. Be an effective squad leader:
When you become squad lead, mark the objectives. You will rack up points for kills in each area you designate an objective. It also helps you win, and rank up faster.

2. Use the jeeps!
The jeeps may seem pointless, but they are much more effective than most think. Use it to sneak around the enemy, transport troops, and use the MG to provide suppressive fire <- important.

3. Learn to fly effectively.
When in a heli, hover over an area to give the gunner time to line up shots. Also, it is a spawn point for other teammates, so hover over an objective and drop them off.

4. Stay alive!
You are much more valuable alive than dead!

1.) Learn to revive your team mate
2.) Don't be a wookie
3.) Supply your team with your class specialty as much as possible.

There's one thing I wish though in Battlefield, and that is a flight simulator tutorial :|.

I can't tell you guys how much I flew my jet over the enemies territory and fail miserably.

Tip for easier flight control:

For jets, switch button layout to "Legacy" and invert Flight Look.

For helicopters, same as above.

I promise you'll be a perfectly fine pilot after doing so.

mike_d_4977d ago

I got my stick layout for jets on southpaw,to me it just feels more natural for most of the jet's controls to be on the left joystick,but then again everyone has their preference.

Hopefully some of the fucking retards in the game will play properly now.

Sick of CoD fuckwits running around playing Deathmatch when we have objectives to destroy.

Tachyon_Nova4977d ago

This happened in every BF to date, don't just blame CoD for peoples lack of a brain.

Drjft4977d ago

Bad Company 2 players even without VoIP have more brains than the majority of BF3 idiots.

Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....

This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.

Why would anyone willingly work in the VG industry or specifically for one of these globocorp organizations that put you in constant fear of losing your livelihood based on terrible choices made by idiotic management, not the people with talent making the actual games?
