Battlefield 3 - Patch Opinions 12-06-2011

[ThexMICKEYJx]

Patch the range damage on the shotgun ammo attatchments, no way should that death in the video happen

[THExIBenn]

still playing world of warcraft? cause i would enjoy some of that

[jeremy123456duss]

@crimsonronaldo the patch for xbox comes tommorow when the new addon is released for xbox

[Sertivrio]

Battlefield Merkage : Sweet

[BrawnyLion]

how do you post a comment in other people's channels? i can't seem to do that in the New Layout..

[SirMac27]

I am glad to hear you are having fun again on this game! Its been an incredible experience with BF3, and I've been noticing the changes you mentioned. Keep goin', man.

[h0lm1]

The spawningsystem on tdm FUCKING SUCKS! Its the worst pice of shit i ever seen. Half of the time im spawning right in people's sights,on live grenades, or claymores. Why havent this got any attention from dice?

[ExinCoralius]

@h0lm1

I believe the spawns are based on the density of enemies in the area, but if everybody's spread out, that doesn't really work...

[Hfajardo97]

@h0lm1 It has to do with algorithms that go into the spawn system and such. They can't just change it on the fly. That is the reason why CoD has had a horrible spawn system all across the board and in all of its gamemodes, they can improve the algorithms but it can never be perfected. BF is new to TDM so their algorithm for spawns need MAJOR work but with each new iteration it will get a bit better and better.

[TheNicksterification]

Do they have battlefield 3 for Mac? Because I have a Mac and wana play Battlefield but I don't know if I can play it for my Mac.

Thanks!

[TheRandomname538]

@TheNicksterification No

[TheNicksterification]

@TheRandomname538 Awh poop

[mjgamer13]

Love the warcraft reference. I wish the original warcrafts didn't get the bad rep associated with WOW.

[MrJuzJoe]

I love it that DICE have nerf the tactical flashlight just like 1:04. During pre-patch, even at further ranges, it would mask the whole body of that target. and blinds the hell out of you.

[MrNate0620]

Youre talking about how this will affect the community and stuff. Most of the people who play this game probably dont know what the patch did and they probably wont even notice somethings

[Kupomaestro]

@MrNate0620 They will if they're used to firing full auto across the map. Personally I think that and the interp slider are two of quite a few brilliant changes.

[CrimsonRonaldo]

did they release the patch on xbox? I didn't notice it.

[ThreatofDoom]

Yay this may get rid of Cod players!! which means no more noobs

[CFL0LSmilyFace]

Honestly, I love having a more difficult time killing people. It was too easy, and I like a challenge. Makes things funner, and makes you better.

[YoshiFan100]

B2K + This Patch - FAMAS G1 = The greatest thing on Earth.

[cromogamer]

onemoregame podcast what happened???????



[JokerButNotBatman]

@cromogamer Athena's away I think

[TheSchludecker]

did they patch invr again ( in karkand)?

please help me

[coltgun00]

I would far prefer harder to control guns with much higher damage per shot than easy to use guns that take heaps of shots to kill with... If anything some of the Carbines and Pistols need more damage at med-long range in my opinion but need to be harder to use than point and hold down the trigger (or tap with pistols).

[macedawg94]

i think this is gonna make sniping easier because you wont be constatly getting outshot by an assault rifle at long range

[SIMPSONSrock374]

hey swords could you make a video explaining the conquest assault gamemode in back to karkand??

[itzMoTioNZ95]

@SIMPSONSrock374 it isnt released on pc yet

[86THEMADHATTER]

I think this new recoil will make getting kills more rewarding. Especially from a distance.

Only have an xbox so still waiting on the patch.

I'm guessing its coming with the Karkand dlc or does anyone know.

[looserkuka]

I did not nitice the gun recoil today. But ir is defenetly usless.

[lipton3d]

hard is better

[R0GU3dotTV]

Whats different with the IR scope? It seems the same

[gangsterblaster]

@R0GU3dotTV nah when u look throught the scope it looks like u get blinded

[R0GU3dotTV]

@gangsterblaster I havent noticed it, is it on console or just PC?

[gangsterblaster]

@R0GU3dotTV i dunno i play on ps3

[looserkuka]

@R0GU3dotTV Hmmm you are obviously blind ;)

[RatedRK0rton]

i think i have just been friendzoned -.-

[TheArmman95]

@mrftothek But like swordsman said it is so bad they should either take it out or make it a little better

[Kiki099]

Do you have a Motorola Triumph?

[GmanL18P]

Wait you guys have a Colorblind mode? I suffer from it, But BF games never really had that issue. But it's only Red and Green colors for me.

[DirtDiver181992]

Making the guns harder to ues is good so the game will be plagued by fewer and fewer kill whores who ruining the game by not PTFOing!!

[XxBloodxKnightxX]

I was saying to myself "lets play some skyrim..what info about the patch i didn't know? *plays BF3*" xD

[Jenkkimie]

I think that recoil added to the guns is a great thing, so it makes the game feel more realistic, this also affects that since the recoil has been added and snipers are the most steadier class to use, they no longer need damage boost or anything, for the infantry combat I like this new system, whether I'm using support,recon,assault or engineer. Thank you DICE.

[Bassie00001]

Yeah guys, BF3 is fucking beautiful...The rain is falliing through the building! :S

[HoodlumFamily]

@Bassie00001 damn it now thats all im gonna notice on this map

[Bassie00001]

@HoodlumFamily sorry.

[szonicsimone]

I feel the same exact way about the lack of polish! It honestly feels a little like a repeat of MOH for DICE, which isn't their fault but were rushed by EA.

[FaceSTAB411]

i think swordsman75 is one of the most normal commentators, the others would have posted this on machinima and would have had XXxx101010113370PTiKH3X1101010­101xxXX... i tip my hat off to you swordsman.

[WaitingJosaf]

Where do you see the patch notes?

[TheRabbitFear]

4:05 really? from that distance?

[spartan1879]

@TheRabbitFear The dude was running slugs so its understandable

[Punisher9419]

its better to be realistic which is better in my opinion i dont care if people go and play cod because i know that bf is a btter game

[Punisher9419]

the patch is absalutaly fine for the ps3 everything for me was completely fixed and the game is alot better know with karkand.

[Shotokanwar]

It like having to burst fire makes it feel more real. Also feels good when you get a guy long range from a heavy recoil gun buy burst.

[noelsoong777]

My collection of DCRU post patch opinions is complete!

[norton84]

Will there be a battle recorder for bf3?

[krich451]

i think its definetly better having the recoil increase, more skill is always better in my opinion.

[cabwild10]

who cares that people can't get used to the recoil if they can burst fire take a pdw or an smg and go into close quaters

[ninjaheartt]

Ive been playing all day and havent noticed the patch. But the only thing that infuriates me almost every game is the headshot mechanic. I constantly get 1 hit-headshotted by low level noobs even when i outplay them. Just today i was HSed 3 times in a row on spawn by 3 completely different people. I wish they would just take HS out of the game for non-snipers. But i know they wont >.<

[fox9595ify]

@ninjaheartt lol you got owned by noobs

[ninjaheartt]

@fox9595ify I just have no luck, of my normally 10 deaths each game, 8 are by headshots -__-

[bigalexk2008]

I've been tap firing since the begining and i think the added recoil is great because i can't stand when i'm trying to use skill with my guns to only get killed by someone over twenty feet away go full auto and kill me first. i can't wait for the patch and i'm loving B2K. Great video as always swords keep up the great work.

[TheArmman95]

The ir is way underpowered

[xlr8ering]

i think that in another patch when you go prone its harder to reload or 2X as long!!! most people will probably not agree with me but i think it would be a cool little challenge because its not like in real life you can reload when your arm is in the ground!!!

[Jinco1238]

BC2 you had to burst fire, nothing different from now. I like it.

[123Gravina]

when will battlog be on the app store?

[joeam316]

Has anyone else ever noticed that when you sprint and stop sometimes your reticle disappears

[MaximusCritter]

@joeam316 yup, I had it happen 3 times last night.

[Snipsonamine]

When playing rush on the new maps I feel that when the game starts out the enemies are already near you.

[Mex6991]

i also feel bad when i kill a guy that just spawned

[711NC]

I feel bad that I'm already a level 45, and the guy that makes videos of the game as his livelihood is a level 30.

[greygoosevodka1]

another 6months?? they had 5 years

[jackm304]

will that battle recorder eventually be in the game?

[jackm304]

i can't wait for this on xbox

[BeoProductions]

so by the sounds of it, every patch we're going to have to relearn every weapon? for fucks sake, I'm tired of being a damn guinea pig for this company. If it weren't for greed, we'd have a finely polished game in a few months, and I would be fine waiting... but nah, gotta be Activision to the punch and still lose the duel of the shooters battle.

[Caeleb1234563]

try recon again now, now that most popular weapons have less range recon is a lot more fun.

[hoomanhanaful]

full auto better

[TheOJof360]

Yes no more insta-deaths from full auto kids.

[guitarb3ast7x]

Fuck this needs to come out on console.

[TheScreamnEagle]

@guitarb3ast7x it is on console

[guitarb3ast7x]

@TheScreamnEagle Is it? I didn't get it..was it released today or something?

[R0bDC]

Recoil is guns = Good players

No Recoil on guns (COD) = Noobs who cant shoot

[fox9595ify]

@R0bDC Recoil is guns = Good players WTF

[R0bDC]

@fox9595ify LOL FAIl in my Part did not notice that i was in a hurry to get to work. What i meant was that Guns with Recoil is basically harder to control so players who can are better at FPS. My Brother who plays COD, started to play BF and he had trouble with his shots because he always expected the gun to stay on the guy he was aiming for but as soon as he press the trigger the gun would go up and he would end up dying. So yeah I know theres some mistakes in this paragraph as well but IDC

[anthcesana]

Game is better off with the improved gunplay. This was one of BC2's stand-out features along with the amount of damage an enemy took to kill. They are still my favourite gun and damage mechanics as a package. But I love the guns themselves and the feeling of firing them in BF3. If it took as long to kill (or die) in BF3 as BC2, then it would reign supreme

[smart1patryk]

I personally love the whole being harder to kill someone, like for example, in Most (if not all but BF) FPS, killing people is just aim at target, shoot, however, in BF its calculate bullet drop, aim for head accounting for drop, and shoot. I personally love battlefield sniping.

[doddsydodds]

They need to patch the overpowered stingers and the fact that the stingers are evadable by choppers, even using flares! Also B2K maps Are far better than original BF3 maps, so much freedom and ability to play how you want, also on conquest you can play them without needing to get in a vehicle to be in the action!

[TDmillerproduction]

If you want to kill people easier and faster then this game is not for you, MW3 is the game for you not BF3. BF games require "skill" to do good in. WM3 is only point and shoot, super easy game.

[ironman45football]

B2K is awesome! just saying

[Av3rGr4y]

@swordsmanx75 im an xbox gamer, would the recoil change affect players who only burst fire?

[SlimCargo]

Since the patch the ps3 controls are horrific. At least a quarter second lag before your screen responds. It really sucks although I'm sure they will work on it. That's why I'm going straight back to Xbox next week. Hope that's as tight as it has been.

[Stacker44]

@SlimCargo that must be just you. Its perfect for me on ps3

[SpaceTurkeyForever]

@SlimCargo huh, what?? no it's not....must be your connection. plays good from my end brah O__O

[ssj6goku00]

302 fail

[ellet1215]

wow..fallout 3 railroad spikes.....good memories good thing i still have the game

[MitchellWadeHarris]

I always had trouble reading the blue HUD on most maps, glad I have the option of color blind now!!!

[DeathDragon4000]

Was the SMAW/RPG splash nerfed?

[fatum77]

I am so use to burst fire from games and life that it was hard for me mentally to just hold it down. I was losing a lot of mid-long range fights because of this so I think it is a great thing. The IR scope I think is about perfect right now I used it earlier today for the first time post patch. Still don't understand the scope sway in it though. Stingers I think are almost perfect now with the flare cool down being longer but I wish they had just a tad more range.

[Itsallgoodinc2]

I'd rather play the game now than to wait another 6 months.

[danam123production]

Anyone see flying/falling gun like 6 minutes in??

[aluvsph]

How long did it take to download the patch on PC and on PS3, who can tell me?

[killerplaya000]

Back pack is beast and fun!Recommend it.

[iPwnAtZombies]

The IR Scope is real useful to me, it always has though.

[p40pilotJT]

I can't wait for the 360 patch, hopefully I won't get angry as much.

[Itsallgoodinc2]

The new maps are awesome. I just unlocked the HK53.

[aluvsph]

@Itsallgoodinc2 Awesome!!!! How long did it take you to unlock it?

[ForeverTheNewbie]

@Watching233 Agreed. Pretty much everyone wanted that, so I wonder why it's nt in yet. It's not even a new issue.

[Watching233]

I wish there was a "Leave" button at the End of Round Menu so i can back out instead of waiting for the next game to start (Consoles)

[aluvsph]

@Watching233 Me too!!!

[TheCzarNeitz]

@Watching233 As do I.

[elachaidin]

@Watching233 also be nice to see what map is coming up next but yes most definitely a lave game option would be most useful

[ObStruct1on]

@Watching233 They just want to promote consecutive matches.

[jbo249]

nice vid man keep up the good work, nice to see you enjoying bf3 again btw glad they addressed vehicle sensativity

[TheSquall998]

Swords, do you know if the patch nerfed the Don7Bl1nk? That thing was one of the most OP weapons in the game!

[WHOnokonohara]

@TheSquall998

i was going to make that joke. -.-

[Freak0NatureX]

@TheSquall998 hur hur hur so funny =l

[TheSquall998]

@Freak0NatureX It is, if you can remember which DCRU member's video I'm referencing there.

[Freak0NatureX]

@TheSquall998 I know what your talking about, I just never though it was funny in the first place.

[MuiltiLightRider]

@TheSquall998

They need to remove him from the game completely. They could make his soldier have to carry a knife in his mouth with all of his limbs removed and he could still do better then everyone else.

[EpicFaceXP]

thank you higher recoil on automatic fire

goodbye insta deaths

now i can actually react when i get shot at

[kombat200]

Swordsman got it dead on at the start. Everyone in DCRU has an impressions video. I've watched them all. Lol. Interesting to hear what these guys each have to say

[aluvsph]

@kombat200 Yes they do and I watched all their vids today! LoL!

[timmytimster14]

IMO I don't think the recoil thing was a big problem at all. I never had instant deaths, I think MW3 has that problem (I've played BOTH EXTENSIVELY) more so than BF3. I like everything else, but I think recoil should have been set from the start. I've already put 40+ hrs into the game and I'm gonna have to get used to it again. /mutter

[ColdeyLive]

I've never been good at gettin kills anyways so the recoil thing wont do much to me lol, thank god my buddy can kill shit or id be useless. I just run in arm the objective die and let him do the rest lol

[AndrewByrneNCC]

why is evry1 talking like it wouldve been better if this stuff was from release. lol to me this game is only new im only lvl 36. i seen 1 guy with the final lvl and a 15 under it

[raac971]

6 months? April? I don't know if i would agree with you there, but i do agree that they could've fix some of the major problems if they didn't release just to get the leg up on mw3.

[Zumalegend]

I personally think that the need to burst fire weapons in BF3 makes it more balanced. The better player can kill the less skilled player, and he is rewarded for it. Black Ops got the recoil on guns right. Full Auto @ long range should = Mistake.

[NonEducatedHD]

noob

[snrdirtysanchez]

@swordsmanx75 With the burst fire thing, i really dont see it as a problem, cos with most FPS games, i naturally burst fire... yes, even in COD..

[fatcamp315]

I love all the hookah placements.

[TheEliteSport]

What is your favorite gun on BF3?

[3doghowl]

@TheEliteSport L96

[uberchargedspartan]

dude i fucking loved the infrared, but i always felt that i absolutely had to use it to stay competitive, and kind of wished it wasn't even there. now that it's nerfed to hell i'm super happy. and the recoil change is a major plus, i hate games that fuck you up for "mistakes" like not checking every possible line of sight. like in halo, the #1 reason i liked halo is that you could actually beat people that got the first shot on you, with your own skill.

[Glaswegianmark]

@uberchargedspartan

when i started playing on oct 25th i played only as engineer and when my M4A1 got the infrared i used it till i was level 25 lol. but dont use it anymore. glad they fixed it too because it felt like cheating. but good scope to find campers

[jzillacon]

why does this video have so little views. Swordsman75 is fucking awesome!

[EATmyARSENIC]

have the suppressed weapons showing on minimaps been fixed? o.O

[SparkZ009]

@EATmyARSENIC yesh

[BenBlatcher]

@EATmyARSENIC Yeah.

[mestido]

@EATmyARSENIC Yup, it is fixed now.

[MrTalz]

Anyone knows how to fix ''battlefield 3 has stopped working'' problem ?

[dubey666manu]

Players who matter will stick to bf no matter what.

[MrBannanaDude]

hey sword, you have written "follow me on twitter: twitch tv/aethyal

[venator96]

swords i have a questing,

i finaly bought bf3 for pc

[ltevanlee]

Excellent video swords, I'm enjoying the patch too.

[Vectoreenio]

[loganjames9]
