I came into a Hardcore server to play Conquest and found that my team was losing by more than thirty tickets. So, I hopped into a T-90A and made my way to help them. After few kills and deaths besides flag captures, it was finally concluded. For the first time, there was no indicator music on which team is the victor. When the results appeared on my television screen, “YOUR TEAM WON”, I was ecstatic! I forgot what the scoreline was and decided to check it out here:
I was playing ‘BATTLEFIELD 3′ and pretty much rolling in the LAV-25 like a boss in Noshahr Canals. I died in flames after being shot by a T-90A but when I came back, I was pretty much focused on my planned route. With the anti-tank guided missile, you can have almost be on par with the main battle tank, provided they do not hit you first. After several salvo with the normal shell, activate ATGM and let fly at the target. Then, revert back to the main gun and pray that the tank commander has no autoloader armed. I thought I was going to die in the infantry fighting vehicle when faced with the tank face-to-face the second time but no, fortunately. Took out my second and third directly when they were busy shooting at other targets. The fourth got taken out when I positioned myself behind a rock near Charlie flag when the team started spawn camping against the opponents. While happily taking out my fifth, I got disconnected; leaving my K/D 9-1.
I really got disappointed by the constant loss of connection when playing ‘BF3′. Hardcore is my favourite server.
I wish my all Chinese friends celebrating out there a Happy Chinese New Year. “Gong Xi Fa Cai!“
Humour
DAFUQ AI Keepers?!
I was happily playing FM 2007/08 to kill my time and this is the first time I see this! Everton pulled level twice and we were not prepared of what was to come!
In the second half of extra time. (Note: Contains generated players)
Football
Manchester City 3-2 Tottenham Hotspur
I missed City’ and Tottenham’s first three goals but I witnessed Balotelli’s stamping attempt on Scott Parker’s face! He clearly deserves a red card but the referee missed it. Late in injury-time, I was swearing at Ledley King for fouling the Italian in the box. Brad Friedel could not reach the ball placed on the bottom right of the keeper.
Arsenal 1-2 Manchester United
Moments after the final whistle, my sister read this Twitter feed out loud, “I 8-2 be Arsenal fan right now. Makes me 1-2 cry…” I totally did not see that coming. It was a tale of two halves but Manchester United took the initiative to put the ball into the net twice. Robin van Persie missed a golden opportunity to take the lead when he shot wide with two defenders in goal. I would have put my money on him to score. We have new injury worry for Phil Jones who twisted his ankle while back pedalling in the first half. Looks like he will be out for two weeks, at least.
Gaming
After about a month of disruption, KENJI139 is back online and fir_nev is planning to come back soon for ‘BATTLEFIELD 3′.
DUST 514
We brothers are thinking about acquiring this game. Looks good in the trailer. What is your take on this?
I have been playing ‘BATTLEFIELD 3‘ all November and December. Stopped to play ‘SAINTS ROW: THE THIRD‘ in the third quarter of this month. I tried switching back to ‘BF3′ and I was doing well… then I took an arrow in the knee. Too much ‘SR3′ did a lot of damage to our PS3 controller-handling. I kept switching weapons when I should be entering into vehicles; Throwing grenades thinking that L2 is for sprinting. After we have gotten back our bearings, I was doing great in M1 Abrams. Killing enemies bringing my total to 554 kills.
Watching my brother using the dragon shouts in ‘ELDERS SCROLL V: SKYRIM‘ did not bother me until the video above. I went O_o before rolling on the floor laughing. Now, I am trying out the game as a… high elf. You think it will suit me, no? LOL
I used to be a handsome elf like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee
My brother and I are busy playing ‘BATTLEFIELD 3′ all day. The kid rips people to shreds while I like to be in a tank or chopper supporting troops or spearheading an objective capture.
We play with two Australian gamers. Very skilled infantry indeed. I am the only pro-tanker on certain maps. They are from LazR. leonidas300300, xMontayy and my brother, KENJI139, can rake massive kills.
This time, we bring you my brother‘s opening ‘BATTLEFIELD 3′ first-hour game-play and he is an absolute beast.
At this rate, I will have to really be more aggressive in garnering more points. I am happily unlocking items as support and tank driver/machine gunner.
You might want to try choosing your most suitable combo that complements your armour driving style and tactic. I prefer attaching the proximity scan, zoom optics and LMG to fend off engineer and support when driving main battle tanks. Despite infantry being weak to armour bombardment, they are faster and can outflank a tank in matter of seconds. Protecting your tank’s rear is hard enough; what more multiple engineers shooting explosives at you from indestructible cover or support wanting to plant C4 and make confetti out of you. The scan gives you an overview of whether you should escape a checkpoint instead being overwhelmed by them. Having a gunner is essential because an experienced player will provide an extra pair of eyes to cover more angle.
This is what I mean:
If I were to rampage in a Light Armoured Vehicle, I go for ATGM and belt speed attachments. This is to take out opposing tanks because the damage we inflict is minimal without those additions. Again, communication or understanding between driver and gunner is important to protect yourself and take out enemies.
Below is a video of my compilation as a machine gunner on IFV and MBT, supporting my driver, shoryu286.
KENJI139 and I are now affiliates to ‘LazR Clan PS3 and Xbox‘ platoon of Australia. Our primary is still, ‘Team Panzer‘, which my brother dominates almost all top spots. We believe in playing the objectives than improving KDR. You can see your battle reports on EA’s Battlelog.
I do not play that often as Suria has lots of good shows in the evening and I, very much, am contented with my fiancée’s company too. Once the weekend is here, I will snatch the controller back from KENJI139.
After watching my brother, KENJI139, earning massive scores with his gung-ho engineer and assault playing styles, I decided to adopt the same approach because my recon play has lost most of its element compared to ‘BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY 2′. I went in as support and defended flags with infantry fighting vehicle, gunning down enemies who tried to sneak around the area or unsuspecting ones who were busy trying to outflank my team in Conquest rounds.
Then, I saw a message from my former colleague, shoryu286, that he was going online. I knew that we are in for a fun time. We last played together in ‘BF:BC2′ multiplayer early last year since he was busy with his second child then. First, we had to play as infantry as we were defending flags at Seine Crossing map. The fun began when we played at Operation Firestorm location.
I was shouting into my headset as we both, engineers, were travelling in our tank spotting attack helicopters who were bombarding the infantry. We met our match, an ace chopper pilot, acoltman, who first flew circles around us in Caspian Border map evading my .50 cal machine gun while scoring damage. At first, we were down 0-2 because we were not used to his tango. Eventually, we caught up and he rather commit suicide than get killed by us. Below are some clips of our face-off.
Now, for his kamikaze clip!
acoltman has my respect as his air superiority can really strike fear into enemies’ hearts. Thus, my makeshift anti-aircraft role to counter such threat.
