Mostly tips for console


First, for all newcomer, when your driver exit of his vehicle, HE DON’T GIVE UP HIS VEHICLE !!!
He fix his reactive armor, or he leave his heli to not be lock anymore by a parachute stinger for example.
So, DO NOT TAKE HIS VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN SNIPER CLASS FOR GOD SAKE !!!!

And please look your mini map to see if your team mate need health or ammo !



Tank :

Cerealno is a great tank specialist, there is 3 video very instructive for BF3

- A risky tactic for duel : the M1 abrams can lift the T-90, use turbo & charge on him. When he is lift he can’t do nothing, but be aware, the driver can be a C4 guy.

- Don’t hesitate to play in Third Person when you are in tank for a better fieldview. Use First Person only to shoot OR to see better the ground and so detect mines.
Mines are always put at same places, on flag and on current way between flag. So try tu use other way on map, destroy some wall to create your own road, or to enter in building.
e.g. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtEEg3I1fiQ5ccg0cfiou2n6rqBjAj70A


N.B. How to place correctly mines, a simple example :

- To shoot more easily jet, know your sight, bullet drop & bullet time. When a jet use his rocket pods that give you an axis/ line to shoot. When a jet chase a friend’s heli / jet, anticipate your ally to shoot.

- Black smoke, dust, etc = DICE have a shit Netcode on this game (the different connections between you and others, manage by the server)
e.g. You can run to be cover behind a wall and die by headshot behind. This is just because your hitbox are shift. What you see its not the same things thats you enemy or other see…
This is the same rules for vehicles but in worse. Sometimes your shell can touch a jet, do a black smoke, but not explode him. Black smoke don’t damage vehicles but can damage or kill their driver or gunner

Spawn :

On Caspian map, the nearest tank with helicopter, spawn always at this place.
The second tank spawn depend if A are captured by US for M1 Abrams & if D are captured by RUS for T-90.

Counter glitch :

If a guy do this glitch & annoyed you, you can switch team, take C4, do this glitch, put C4 from outside to inside, and wait until enemies shoot on it. (Same way on Kharg)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZjd5jNNNJY
Two possibility :
1- Take a jet, they are indestructible during takeoff (but not the pilot), and jump on the glitch with C4, RPG, etc… You can also kill the gunner and take the heli
2- Switch team, take a jet, jump and move the heli from this glitch
(if the game won’t let you switch a second time, leave the server and return into it. You can switch again)

At this place if a guy can shoot through the wall, you too ! You have a small tight angle to shoot him

If the guy use C4 on this glitch, you can use Support class with shotgun & frag ammo, and try to shoot his C4

Works on consoles but hard (for me) to master them

Little tips :

- Use the map by press start
e.g. You disabled an heli, he will try to fix him. When you go up in the sky, press start quickly to see where he landed.
other e.g. You’r in tank, another enemies tank do a kill, press start to know where he is.
(Mortar somewhere = press start to know where is)

- Look sometimes the Killfeed, there is some information that can help you
e.g. You’r in jet try to kill ants, no vehicles are spotted, and an heli or jet do a kill. So now you have new priority target.

- Crouch you to not trigger a claymore

- If you die out of area, the medic can revive you but he must be in area to revive his team mate

- If you want to use mortar, put a silencer on yours weapons. You will be invisible on the map. Btw the mortar have 2 types of ammo.

- On Conquest, when you take a flag, you have a sound on the 2nd capturing phase, a ‘’tic tac ‘’. This sound indicate you that there is no one on the flag.
e.g. you have not this sound, and you’r three guy taking the flag, so there is 1 or 2 enemies on the flag.

- If you lay the Kasatka (Russian transport helicopter) on the side and on the ground, this is the end.
Impossible to put it back up without the help of a tank for example
With the Venom, you can if you have enough space.

- The AAV-7A1 AMTRAC have reactive shield, you can fix them with you repair tool. 5-8 sec per side to fix them (like all reactive shield if the vehicle have them)

- Put TV missile like equipment for heli, your sight of gunner will not shake
In attack helicopter the emplacement of TV missile are different for Havoc & Viper. Switch in heli to be aware about that, and so put your sight correctly for your gunner.
So that he can launch his TV missile directly on target.
Btw a TV missile can be destroyed but its really hard.

- Do stunt with vehicles on empty server to increase your ability of driving
e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SA7BetyqAGM

- If an enemy stole a jet in your camp, don’t try to shoot the jet, shoot the cockpit. ALWAYS !

- To go into a vehicle as quickly as it possible when it will reappear, stay press B (on Xbox) near his spawn. But you need to know the exact spawn place of the vehicle.
If you stay ON the spawn of helicopter it won't reappear, and you take the risk to get jet rammed by one of your team mate.

- If you want camping with your sniper, put your gadgets far from where you camp. Your gadgets are always easier to be spotted than you, so they can be reveal your position.

Troll tips :

The MAV can be lock by a Javelin, so with friend, go on metro (or other map), each on opposite side and have fun.

If you jump into enemy side and go in the AA, when you die the AA will be destroyed during 5-10 sec
