And that they actually used their brains is a fairy tale. Because IF they used their brains, they would've cared about the basic bugs FIRST. I wonder if we will ever be at a point where the game is that bug-free, that they could take time for this nonsense.
"e look forward to continued community feedback on how these changes are affecting Battlefield 3. Based on that feedback we may make additional adjustments in the future." u already got 20+ k feedbacks what more u need to roll ur patch back ?? swiss cheez as a gift ??? just roll it back,realese expansions make a template for an battlelog,nd just release it on platforms,ppl will be happy ,

@ dice: ihr seid solche versager...unfassbar
I think DICE's new strategy is for replay value is to create OP weapon glitches to exploit. Putting them in patches to fix current glitches is genius. Hey DICE. Please glitch the SVD take out a tank with one shot only if you use equip the tac light, iron sights and the bipod..
@LA357SIG lololol true
Wow Dice screws the Attachments balance up and says we should find a new "perfect" setup. So that Dice can fuck it up again?
ROLL BACK THE FAIL PATCH!!!!! Thank you for not being Zh1-cl0wn, thank you trydlin.
We the players don’t think it adds any element of fun to the game when your screen is completely blurred. Only gameplay designer Alan Kertz thought it would be a good change and his opinion is more important that the game’s dedicated players. It is clear this is how all changes are made to the game.
1) "as we felt that shooters really didn’t represent the unnerving fear that comes from being truly shot at in an authentic way" - we are fearless roughneck killing machines. ### 2) "Based on that feedback we may make additional adjustments in the future" - thx for the warning, more bs tweaks upcoming ### 3) "When we see many players gravitating towards a single setup, as game designers we can conclude that the other choices are not interesting enough to give players reason to try them out. We want players to experience the width of the game, and for this reason we concluded it was time to make a change." - sounds like dictatorship. I just don't want to customize my stuff every round. The mandatory check which uniform the game has selected for me at the beginning of each round is something that goes on my nerves. ### I want to experience the width of the game, and for this reason i conclude it is time to make proper BUG FIXES !
@Fronz47 lol true, he said it was everyone took foregrip and supressor ,now everyone take only heavy barrel lol pathetic @BATTl3F13ND i gave HOOOOOAHH
fix this piece of shit
@NecessaryEviI AWW true mate, u have motion blur,shooting blur coz ur weapon kick back,now u have supression blur, Kertz are u kinda like to be drunk in the games ??? wwhat kind of fetish u have with blur????? u made a HDR effect which i cant see things clear, thus u blurred us to death , or maybe army u was everysoldier was with glasses? whats wrong with u ? never been outside? is it all blurry hdr?
FIX THE GAME. Suppression, Tanks, team balanced, RUSH mode (why attackers got more vehicles? Air vehicles should only be for transportation, not spawn kill defenders). NOT going to buy anymore DLCs or BF games unless you fix BF3.
Alan Kertz returns with an in-depth look at how we balance and rebalance the game after launch. sorry i lol'd
Alan Kertz's comment: "...players find their go to combo suddenly is not as good as it was. It’s time to try out some new combinations!" In other words, "we saw what weapons and attachments you liked and completely nerfed them to force you to use other attachments that you dont like."
yep its fun....nade fest lol
How is this news?
Alan Kertz's u r a nub, with ur combos ,if ur QA team didnt found the best combo here it is g3 +underslug+m26 dart =around 400 dmg, lol ,after ur words i dont even think u work for a same game we play here mr.Kertz
..and the bullshit goes on! You can keep the patch if you pay my money back... and pls shove a nice setup of any suppressor and foregrip where the sun dun shine. Was fun but now its a silly lil game..
Bring back the normal suppressor. It wasn´t overpowered just overused. So people (including myself) loved it with foregrip.
