Got a new mouse today and doing testing!

Wanna test it with some CO-OP missions?

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

Sorry about the double post, but I'm really bored anyone wanna do co-op?

 

[Killer_Rubber_Ducky]

Same here in regards to the TPU server (404 error).

The server admin (digibucc) has not maintained it for a long time now. Currently it is unusable .

Sup guys, Quick series I came out with before Myth Busting, Figured I would touch up on it again.

Here's a quick tips video on my Guided Shell Tank Setup

 

[TheLaughingMan]

Me, Dave, and I think MT were in a tank on Wake Island a week or so ago. Between me shooting, Dave target locking, and Alex repairing we collectively had 47 kills and maybe like 4 deaths. And it was all guided shell kills chopper after chopper after chopper with the occasional random shot into boats, guys on the ground, etc. It was pretty beastly that round.

 

[Fhrope]

Yeah for sure, a good 3 man team in the tank can destroy anything that comes their way

Hey Fhrope, I've been watching quite a few of your vids on youtube, and I was wondering if you could do an updated version of some of the myth busting? Just in case there have been any updated that nerfed/buffed weapons. Most notably was the C4 - I'm quite sure (but not 100%) that it takes 3 or more C4 to blow a tank. Maybe it's the reactive armor that causes this but not sure.

 

[Fhrope]

I have been doing some updates in recent episodes I do some retests sometimes. As for the tank one, the first one was done on hardcore that's why it was 2, on normal it's 3. There should be an annotation on the first video, then I ended up retesting but it was on an LAV and not a tank lol but it's 3 for sure

 

[scaminatrix]

Aah ok I see, thanks. I noticed in a vid it said that the C4 does 50% damage so I was thinking there may have been a C4 nerf or something.

I've got a little idea for your next video, related to something that happened to me recently:

Me and a mate had something crazy happen to us last night - we were in attack chopper; he was pilot I was gunner.
I saw him get a lock on to a chopper (he's got painter so anything he locks onto comes up for me and my guided's) and he shot his heat-seekers at this chopper. An enemy jet flew past the enemy chopper and both rockets curled round and followed the jet and blew it up! The heat-seekers found an alternative heat source and followed it!
Now me and my mate are looking at the environment to use as alternative heat sources for seekers in case someone gets a lock on us, like in Operation Firestorm where you have those pipes coming out of the ground inside a fence where you blow up the pipe and fire spews out of it. Only problem is, when someone's locked onto you, you can't tell whether it's an IR lock or heat-seeker lock so this is gonna take some testing!

Try busting this - my theory is that the oil pipes on Operation Firestorm that spew fire when you destroy them will act as a counter-measure against heat-seekers. Hovering above one in a chopper while someone fires a heat-seeker at you would be an easy way to see. This would be really fun to test, but I just don't have the time

 

[Fhrope]

I would have to try that, it could have been the jet close to you that caused an issue, I have been doing testing for episode 7 and something similar like that happened when 2 helicopters were too close. It just glitched out

 

[scaminatrix]

I wouldn't say it's an issue - it's just another thing that shows how much of an epic game BF3 is! A heat-seeker that goes for an alternative heat source would happen IRL so DICE must have deliberately implemented it. Maybe the jets have a bigger heat signature than choppers, so the heat-seekers favour them more?
I don't think it glitched out on you, I think the heat-seekers just took different targets

I can't wait to see your next episode

I wish it was me, I haven't had a good round on Wake Island forever. It must have been some other horse stud.

I'd dot it!! I was not aware there were pipes you could destroy and do that

Oh. I need to figure out who that was. They repeatedly put themselves in the line of fire keeping me from getting killed. And trust me around the 25/0 mark, we because a primary target for the enemy team. That hand full of deaths was from whoever that was hunting down support guys on foot with C-4 and stopping Engineers when we move to the E flag.

OMG! Do want! But...there's really no reason to use tanks anymore after you got that unlocked because there aren't any more unlocks after it.

ive had that unlocked a while back but never got it to work cuz do you need someone in the 3rd seat for it to work ?

 

[ComradeSader]

I swear there's almost no Aussies ever playing these days. 95% of servers are empty, with only the occasional server with any people, most of which are Metro 24/7.

Sucks

You don't need 3 people but you do need someone in the 3rd seat to do the laser targeting. When I'm a gunner on a tank I'll usually switch to that seat (if available) when a helicopter or armored vehicle comes around.

Also anyone with a Jav/Stinger are able to lock on to the laser target coming from the tank.

Only bad part is I'm mostly solo in the tank

I was the one outside the tank repairing...I believe your 3rd was Triptex though.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

So TLM (and Alex) when do we want to stage a repeat of that ackshun? You gotta let me drive sometimes tho!

Yeah yeah I know "get on TS" and such but maybe we can even set a specific time, perhaps even repeating. Weekends are better for me.

Yeah DOM I've been mostly solo in tanks too but not really by choice. Have yet to use Guided Shell yet as such... (go take my pics btw! )
