What are the servers like for this (360 version) now? I noticed earlier in the thread people were having issues.

M-Com stations: is there any point in hunting them down? a reward in form of an unlockable or an achievement?Comment

Mate, out of interest, was that me? I'm on PS3 (P-Dogg) and did exactly that to someone yesterday.Originally posted by Jebus View Post
Apologies if by some small coincidence, it was me. I can't control the choppers for ****!Comment

This is true of me as well. Yesterday I saw an unmanned helicopter and thought 'How hard can it be?'Originally posted by P-Dogg View Post
Next thing I know I'm flying sideways into an upside down position and crashing into a building committing suicide. No doubt the rest of my team were laughing their asses off.

Yep i'm the same too, if you can master them you can rack up serious points.
Try and practice in a private matchComment

I couldn't fly helicopters in Bad Company and still can't in this.
Battlefield Veteran
I've got two veteran icons on my veteran page, but the Veteran Rank says 1. In Bad Company my VR is 1, in 1943 my VR is 1, and in Bad Company 2 my VR is 2. When it's all sorted, shouldn't my overall VR be 4 (Modern Combat, Bad Company, 1943, Bad Company 2) and then in each game my VR should be 3, because it doesn't count the one for the game you're playing?
If it's like Bad Company you can only communicate with your squad and not the entire team. I say 'if it's like' because I've currently got my voice option set to friends only. I don't know why entire team chat couldn't have been added to one of the D-pad directions in both games.Originally posted by Malc View PostComment

I tell ya what, this game makes me truly miss the days where there were a regular gang of us playing together everynight! (Madwindy, Dazzyman, Nembot etc shout outs to you basts!)
****ing cracker of a game though!Comment

It really is cool! I'm loving it, perfect for a half an hour blast.
Played my first conquest games tonight, that was good fun too. A little more relaxed than rushComment

Is this really laggy at the moment for anyone else? It seems like whenever I join a game, I'm rubber-banding all the time. And before you ask, nothing else in my house is currently connected to the net, only my 360 and my iPhone. :-(Comment

I've been trying to avoid this but I'm just gonna have to buy it! I said to myself I wouldn't buy a game before I finish uni in May but **** it, it looks absolutely awesome fun!
These two paragraphs on Eurogamer.net review pretty much sold it for me:
"For example, I was dropped into one Conquest game already in progress, on the losing side. At this late stage, all our base were belong to them and a particularly skilled enemy had taken to the skies in an Apache helicopter, performing an elaborate aerial ballet and bombarding our last refuge with rockets whenever anybody tried to make a break for safety. By taking advantage of the open environment, however, I was able to lurk out of sight in the scrub, make my way down the coastline to a shipwreck with an AA gun mounted on the deck and bring him down with no small amount of vengeful vindication. Almost immediately, the tide turned; my squad mates were able to commandeer tanks and APCs and start taking back the bases that had been complacently left unguarded, so sure were our foes of air superiority. Back and forth, the glorious flow of Battlefield is still a joy to behold.You can never be too careful. That tree might be a communist.
The game is full of fantastic little stories like that, and the maps do a great job of letting such things happen, providing the playground but leaving the game up to the players. Scamper up to an attic, use C4 to blow out one of the walls, and create a sniper spot that nobody will think to look for. Lose yourself in the rusty snarl of a beached freighter and wait, shotgun ready, for someone to dash past on their way to an objective. It's endlessly, brilliantly immersive stuff, fully deserving of the Battlefield legacy."
Also, are the helicopters really that hard to fly?Comment

Last night if I stood still I slowly dragged backwards, it was pretty bad!Originally posted by MyDogSkip View Post
As for heli's I'm a newcomer to them in this game and I didn't find them *that* hard to fly!Comment

The big one with the side gunners I can fly (blackhawk?) but the Apache I suck at. Have noticed how most games seem to have people dive bombing them into the m-comm bases! been getting tonnes of revives and heals from them
