okay well I dont know how it is on PC but on the 360 it is easy as hell to dominate the skies once you get those unlocks, feel bad for the people without them but at the same time its a blast going the whole round not getting shot down lol
Yeah, looking at the last few vehicle unlocks, basement dwellers with reasonable skills will seriously dominate most games early on.

"Play Battlefield 3 co-op to unlock 6 weapons to be used in the multiplayer

DICE's Fredrik Thylander who is the senior game designer and person responsible for all the unlocks in the game has revealed on Twitter that players will be able to unlock 6 weapons in the co-op campaign for use in the multiplayer. He tells us that one of the weapon unlocks shall be the M39 EMR(see pic above) which was also known as the M14 Mod 0 in Bad Company 2. No details yet regarding the other weapons but with the launch only days away (USA) I guess we will know more soon.

The M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle (EMR) is a highly modernized M14 designed to be utilized by USMC designated marksmen. Issued with match-grade 7.62mm NATO long range ammunition the M39 is significantly lighter and more accurate than the original M14. The M39 is limited to Semi-Automatic fire, but supports a number of accessories including a standard Rifle Scope (8x)."

Redeem by earning points:
MP412 REX - 63,000 score - All kit revolver side arm.
KH2002 - 126,000 score - Assault kit assault rifle.
MP7 - 189,000 score - All kit SMG.
M39 EMR - 252,000 score - Recon kit rifle.
93R - 315,000 score - All kit side arm.
SG553 - 378,000 score - Engineer kit carbine.
G3A3 - 441,000 score - Assault kit assault rifle.


Yeah, 42 or so missions before unlocking everything.  Considering that there are only 6 missions?  Grind...

i just love the fucking consistency. in the normal multiplayer they shower you with ranks, weapons, awards and ribbons just for being able to press w+mouse1 and mong your way around a fucking map. but to get a few other (crappy) unlocks you have to grind through the utter inane tedium of co-op for about 50 hours. amazing.

Yeah that's dumb.  I'd guess they might consider lowering those requirements after the firestorm of bitching that surely accompanied that little press release...

And of course they'd make the badass revolver the last one...

All I wanted was the M39 in the beta, and I couldn't get it. Now I have to complete the co-op 100x to unlock it? Yeah, thanks "Fredrik Thylander", you fucking asshole.

I have been having an insane amount of fun flying jets now that I have my stick working proper!  and having a full squad of friends makes it all the better too.  the rocket pods in the jets are worth the trade off for the heat seekers. guns are better for taking down planes with flares anyway.  you can take out a tank in one pass with rockets if you switch to guns and finish them off. I will have the guided ATG missiles pretty quick.  whoever says the jets suck compared to bf2 are out of their mind.

Well it refuses to start tells me that there is an error and I should re-install the game. I think I have to update a few things on my PC so I'm doing that now, (or was, I had to go to work,) and it may work for me after that. We'll see.

Always seems to happen with AAA games.

Game is lots of fun, but I'm getting annoyed by the controller quickly.

Wednesday I buy a new TV screen, because I'm currently playing on a 480p CRT. I'll be getting a 20-24'' 1080p screen. Wednesday 2 weeks after that I'll get XIM3 and a mouse and keyboard.

Can't hit a darn thing with the controller.

I've played some glitchy shit in my time, but I think BF3 takes the gold.

And also, the amount of times I've died from the retard AI pushing me out of cover is astounding. Took me about 20 minutes to clear one patch of land...

Adapt then. Once you get used to it, it's not so bad. Never will be as good as mouse keyboard though.

Lets me play with a mouse and keyboard.

Gonna kick some serious butt. I'm basically turning my xbox into a PC. Getting a 20-24'' screen, using headphones, using mouse and keyboard.

Meh. Don't need it to play consoles. If I'm gonna play with mouse -keyboard I want the people I'm playin against to be using them to as well. So few people will have that, that it's not justified as far as I'm concerned. You won't be owning anyone, the mouse-keyboard will. Once they become more mainstream it will be worth it.

Nah

They're familiar with controllers, I'm familiar with a M&K. They can use a controller, I can't. I can use a M&K, they can't.

I think it's fair, but I'm willing to change my stance if you can come up with a good reason for me to. I don't want to be unfair, but I don't want to play with something I can't use.
