Moving from a 19 inch monitor @ 1280 / 1024 to a 26 inch at 1080p made my typical K/D go from 2-10 to 6-6 (so improvement). It's so much better when you can actually see stuff!

Gripes: Mostly get killed by INRV. Way overpowered. And I know by the time I get it, it will have been nerfed at update.

MAV killing people that easily? You have got to be kidding me. What a joke. It should be alot easier to shoot down.

Anyhow. Really wish I could find a couple of decent people to squad up with. I love running around as a squad but it rarely happens.

Don't understand why some people fret over k/d ratio so much, the more you play the better you'll be, and a better k/d ration will eventually come along nicely. TBH tho, if I don't get a positive k/d ration, I know it's because I haven't been running around capturing flags enough, not because I've been killed too many times. But it's true IRNV is way overpowered, I personally can be a IRNV whore myself, so I better shut up

Find a couple of friends who play and are willing to use the voip system, and you'll have a half decent squad even if they're shit. Communication is key.

Me and Dracz had a go with the guided shells last night.

They're good - good damage, seem to do a good job of avoiding obstacles as well. Lock on range is pretty tiny though.

The entire enemy team ends up getting very annoyed at you.

a mate and i defended the first two points of caspian rush in a t90 . Was pretty funny to see the entire enemy team raging at us for not letting them get just out of their base . and we sat right next to a so it wasn't like we were camping their spawn .

IRNV is the biggest joke, it is way too effective outdoors.
At least 75% of the people who kill me use it so I gave it a go and realised why all these guys are using it.

Cant believe it took me almost 40 hours of playing to give it a try lol, I'm too attached to HOLO.

The hard part is going back to normal scopes or no scopes. 418 odd kills and now I want to upgrade other weapons. Lets just say my epeen ratio is taking a hit lol.

Thats where being awesome comes into it

Going to IRNV > normal scopes = awesome ^_^

Lol, I know that when you wake in the morning you piss excellence but seeing as though I never really played any online fps before, I am doing alright.

Do you use voip? If so which breed? I have followed you onto a couple of servers before but without being able to chat it is quite pointless.

YEA YEA JMART ...copy that...good call mate ... my apologies and well received. How about we let it go hey, I'm up for that.?
That’s a big ROGER Mudg3 and a huge thank you to DracZ.

Cheers ... I’ll just try to ignore the trolls.
Thanks again!

To be honest I got sick of how cheap the IRNV was and went back to HOLO/RDS.

The other problem with IRNV is that it blacks out the rest of your screen, so you can only see the scope. With HOLO and RDS you can still see the field of battle while scoped in.

They should nerf the IRNV so it doesn't work as well in daylight, or give people an unlock that cloaks their IR signature, because eventually everyone will be using it..

i unlocked all roles playing last night... now i can stop using stupid recon!

is that how IRNV even works irl?

It's a bit odd being able to use it in broad daylight.

then again... a respawn beacon is not the best example of realism in BF3... lol
