The Official Battlefield 3 370z Platoon

We definitely need to link up on v comm. I was flying around with a friend a few nights ago in the Viper as a gunner and it was great. It is definitely highly effective but both gunner and pilot have to do their job.

The only PITA is if you aren't flying right on the deck any decent mobile AA operator or Stinger-equipped engineers will annoy the living isht out of you.

The Abrams and T-90s are also awesome weapons with a team using voice com. Highly effective.

Also... it's hilarious shooting down n00b pilots (jets and helos a like) with the tank's main gun.

Oh, you have no idea how much pleasure I get out of that. I practiced that constantly in BF2...

What annoys me is sometimes they are able to withstand a shell. No way.

I'm one of those guys who likes to annoy with either the tank (my favorite vehicle) or the AA. I'm enjoying the AA in BF3. You have to place it right and be patient with good pilots that know how to avoid the missiles.

I've got decent tank craft but I stink at AA, and I have been reluctant to try because I know it could be used better by someone with more experience. If I used it the team would probably get raped by helos and jets.

Ahhh, yeah.

Well, you could always build a budget rig for $500-600 if you ever wanted to get into it on the PC side.

Man, I remember when the 8800 series was the sh1t! I had a 512mb 8800GT in my first "serious" PC.

USMCram · 11-17-2011, 02:12 PM

No kidding. Man the first 3d card I bought was a voodoo. LMAO...old school I still remember most of the specs of that pc. Played Half life Like a champ.
166mhz pentium.
with like 16mb of ram.
with my voodoo 3. sweet sweet rig at the time.

The Voodoo 3 was awesome. I remember being at Best Buy (I think?) with my dad trying to figure out whether it was worth it to get the 16mb card or the 32mb one.

Christ, I had a Canopus Pure 3D Voodoo1 card. It was THE card to get, because normal Voodoo1's had 4 megs of video memory, but the Canopus one had 6 (six) megs!!1!!1!1

Made playing Jane's Longbow 2 amazing

Btw, that was seriously an amazing game for its time...

Longbow was awesome especially when you hooked up with a friend and flew missions together.

USMCram · 11-17-2011, 02:22 PM

Lmao yea! "32mb, man that's too much, you don't need that much power" hell. anything more than 166mhz was overkill then too.

m4a1mustang · 11-17-2011, 02:58 PM

I had all of those old Jane's games.

USMCram · 11-17-2011, 03:29 PM

Agreed. I miss the old janes simulations. Especially longbow

MightyBobo · 11-17-2011, 06:03 PM
