Battlefield 3

I've never actually flown a chopper but I'm 99% sure that in the gunner setup there is a zoom optics perk which of course I've selected. Can't seem to get it to work though. :/

I have a feeling the pilots perks apply to the gunner, so he must have it selected.

In this game I'm not even a pilot's backside so these would come in handy for me if I became inclined to fly but really some of the okes need to use these servers to learn to operate ANY vehicle.

Tanks for example: You jump in as gunner at the start of a round and begin to get nervous as the unattentive driver bashes into every possible obstacle on his way to nowhere. Then, as predicted, an enemy tank comes into view right on queue and your driver sits there admiring that view instead of taking evasive action. At this point alarm bells are ringing in your head if they aren't already blaring in the crew compartment! You swear, you curse, you pop off a few 50 cal rounds at the enemy vehicle in the hope that numbnuts catches a wake up. The only time he/she/it does catch a wake up is when the first enemy sabot round impacts your tank and then your driver begins with his checklist to see whether he's run over yet another 1982 Datsun Pulsar. At this point he realises that not only is he in control of driving the vehicle but that the big stickie-outie thing mounted on the funny turret thingy is also fully under his management. He returns fire only to miss wildly with a round going into orbit over the offending tank's now very-much-pointing-at-you turret. Even though you're packing repairs in your bag of tricks, they'd be useless when it takes 10 shots to get on target. So you bail, you run and you just put it all behind you if you're lucky enough to live.

Bwahahahaha!!!1 that is absolutely awesome, only because it is so true.
I also hate it when I spawn into the gunners seat of the chopper and watch the pilot wobble his way into the air, I usually end up watching my fiery carcass fall to the ground after that :/

I thought you were fond of admins switching the pilot from one side to another.

Not once in my 300 odd hours have I spotted from a vehicle. Ever. And not through lack of trying either.

Wish I knew why this happens - probably because I went and did something so un-console like actually customising the key for spot/commo rose. Same thing for gunner zoom in attack helo. Mine does nothing. Difference there is that I can't even find the key to customise. People have laughed at me with "dude, right click!" comments and so on but right clicking was my first instinct. Such a good game and yet so plagued by random, annoying BS.

Try downloading BF3 settings editor and playing around with the key bindings in there. There have been some issues with rebinding the spot/commo rose key from within the game.

Hey, thanks! Dumb question I'm sure but this doesn't run while the game runs or anything, right? Just something with an interface to access the configs?

Is this the same thing that allows you to bind a key to hard brake (as opposed to the normal brake) for flying?

killadoob 07-02-2012, 09:27 AM Just join his squad bud and watch him play. He is about the best bf 3 player i would say, you must squad with him though. Best squad leader you will find. He plays to stay alive while attacking which is insane, he doesn't pull a camper to the max where he sits and camps for the entire round, he generally swaps with us when the teams are unbalanced so it's not like he looks for noobs to pwn and his tanking skills are just off the chart. I have heard people say he doesn't die but i have squadded with him so much and believe me we revive and i even see him getting shot when he should kill people. I know plenty people think he hacks but if i thought for one second that he did i would have a chat to the okes and he would be gone. You have to play in his squad to see how he plays, where he goes and so on to understand how good he is at seeing the bigger picture. You also must play in his squad and see he is not invincible, just very good at ensuring he

I was talking about patriarch.


JUDGE YOU STUPID NOOB, i was talking about patriarch and now you have lied to your clan and made it out like i think you are a good player.

BFC know what you are, the community know it and it's a sad day when you have to make your clan members think i said something good about you.

The things i have to say about you would you get me a perma ban.

Dusty36 if you told voo this was about him you are nothing more than a chop bud. Sis judgevoo you need to lie to your clan mates regarding my words without checking if i made them about you.

I was wondering why richocet was talking to me about something or other today. Wow this is beyond lame bud.

Stop lying to your clan mates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and taking credit for things not said about you.

We actually feel sorry for your clan mates, how can you lie to them like this without linking to this thread to see what the story was? Sad sad man you are. I would never play in your squad let alone your team.

Lol, Albs I was sooooo bleak when that I happened. It was quite fun watching my gunner crash into Sharqi's hotel :p

What a dick move that was when it happened to me. :p

Not sure if that's what happened, but I remember crashing into sharqi's hotel after you shouted "Voicy, press F1!!!!!"


Anyway, on a different note...what happened to BFC-Bull? I last squadded with him when he took us under his wing during Project Reality nights.
