I may have to try an Xbox controller for flying. I did in BFBC2 , but still stunk. Is BF3 any easier ?

For the jets, for sure. Helis, i think that may be a matter of personal choice.

I agree with BF:BC2 not being so great for controller-flying, so you may just want to try that out. I think Triptex is using 360 controller for jets too, and I think he likes it as well.

I'm using one too, It makes the 30 seconds I have in the air before I'm shot down a lot easier.

If you trimmed that unibrow you could see better to fly.

Even with my limited experience doing so myself I think a pad/controller/joystick is only really "where it's at" compared to KB/mouse with jets, not choppers. Though anyone can feel free to correct me. I have an old Logitech Rumble Pad and I gave it a shot with BF3 helis and really did not feel any more in control than with KB/mouse though didn't try very long, tbh.
 
Hey check out this awesomingly helpful new Battlelog feature apparently "being rolled out" (and some have already):

with that said, my KDR went up to 1.45
 
Noob question, I have all the unlocks on Jet, but why can I not 'Lock On' to incoming jets and use blow them up?

Which is the proper layout?
 
Finally upgrading to the cpu in my specs (from a q9550) looking forward to even better bf3 gaming :D

I knew that I would sometimes get sounds and sometime I wouldn't, but I thought it was just another bug in the game.

I was telling a newbie friend of mine about this and those who were in the server went crazy with the information, I previously thought it was common knowledge. I figured I would share it with you all.

When you arrive at a capture point and begin to wind the counter down you will hear a chime equivalent to what I imagine the flag sounds like when its coming down the metal pole. You will ONLY hear this chime if no enemy players are in the area you are capturing.

For instance, if you and a squad mate move onto "A" to capture it, as the opposing team currently owns it. If the two of you are uncontested you will hear the audio chime I explained as the flag winds down the pole and you come closer to capturing the objective.

In contrast if the same two people head to capture "A" and arrive but there is a camper hidden on the flag, yet is outnumbered on the capture point you will notice the flag winding down just the same just there will be no chime, no beeping as you capture. This is a sign that although you may not see the enemy, there is at least one combatant currently contesting the area you are capturing.

I hope this helps!!

TL;DR: If you are capturing an objective in conquest and hear the "beeping" of the flag you are alone, If you do not hear the beep you've got tangos in your AO.

Well I found my new love I think, the AN-94, even without unlocked the thing was just beast. But then it got even better, some guns you have to go deep into the unlocks to get what you want, but with the AN-94 by the time you hit 50 kills you have Heavy Barrel, Foregrip, and Kobra RDS (also PSO 4x and Tact Light if thats you thing). I just used it for like 3 rounds yesterday and in those 3 rounds my SPM climbed 5 points...
 
Anyone else having problem finishing the last mission of singleplayer? I have a problem with latest version that i die regardless of what i do on the train. Terrorist attacks you, you shoot the window and kick him out. Then you run ahead and you need to climb outside the train because doors are blocked.
Here you need to jump from one train cart to another using SPACE key before it explodes and splits it. I do this but i ALWAYS die. I went to check walkthrough video on IGN and the guy there does it no problem. Jumps over and climbs to the top of the train cart.

One of my friends was playing on a server last night and I was watching the scoreboard as he was playing. I clicked on the server page to view the server details and it showed me an actual live feed of the scoreboard!

Like this:

Man, noshahr canals is seriously underrated. Very dynamic map.

I have only played the first 2 missions and have had the game since day 1

I learned to repeatedly hit the space bar:D
