    All complaints to be sent to /dev/null

    It came off in me hand chief!

    If I had wanted to burn, collect sand in everything I own, overheat, run around, shoot things with something less than 4.5inch caliber, wear green/sand coloured baggy outfits, live more than 16m above Sea Level I would have joined the Army.

    Oh is it only an hour? I THINK I can cope.

    The four new maps are infantry only and no new vehicles will be availiable in the new DLC. Rush has been dropped from these four new maps as they are so small and 'Close Quarters' as the name suggests.

    Battlefield 3′s upcoming DLC, Close Quarters, includes four new maps, several new weapons, and a new game mode: Conquest Domination. Since Close Quarters maps are so small, the Rush mode won’t be supported. Instead, players will get to try out Conquest Domination, which is similar to the “Domination” mode from Unreal Tournament. Conquest Domination is suited for the small, infantry-focused maps of Close Quarters, and will rely on the spawn system from Team Deathmatch.

    LSAT's an interesting one!
    That's exactly what I thought when I saw it in MW2. It just seemed kind of useless. It's got mental recoil in all these games and a shite sight.

I knew he was there though cos I saw the rounds arcing over towards me. Eventually I got killed and found that he indeed was on the rear of the carrier. How could he see me but not the other way round??
    Don't know the exact technical thingy majiggy but it's something to do with height, I believe. That and the angle you're facing the sun. Also - fuck that guy, he is a right cunt for hanging out on the carrier and sniping.

    On that level You always get some cunt right high up in the hills taking potshots at people, if they are on my side I drive up in a jeep then run them over. If you jump out before impact it kills the other person and you dont get a team kill.

    I've not been playing much recently, mainly 'cause I feel like shit when the clock gets round to 2100. I did however, grab a couple of games of Rush last night on Noshahr Canals.

    Our team worked brilliantly. I didn't fancy being sat around in the Mobile AA so I jumped in the Vodnik and ferried a MG gunner around mopping up the bad guys. A couple of people took care of the oppositions AMTRAC and Heli's whilst the infantry shot each other to shit.

    That plan sort of went to ratshit when it was our turn to attack and we got slaughtered. But good fun anyway.

    I'm not so sure. End of the day, it's up to people to play the game however they see fit. If they want to sit in the hills and snipe, why should you kill the for it? It was their £40 at the end of the day to play the game however they get most enjoyment?

    I'll make it clear now - I have done so little time as a sniper I don't even have the first unlock for it, and I can't even see the sniper segment on the Battlelog 'Classes Piechart' and people who do that disgust me.

    But there is never a call for team killing, that's up there with the idiots who shoot their own aircraft down through spite.
