The last patch contained new voice packs, one great example you hear in this video. It sounds way more intense and adds a lot fun the game:

This tutorial is mainly for the Javeline Anti Tank missle in Battlefield 3.

Some facts: The FGM-148 Javelin exists in real live. It’s a fire and forget rocket system: the crew (two men) aim at a target, lock it, fire and the missile finds the target alone, even if moving.

• One rocket (= one shot) costs 40.000 US$
• The reusable launch unit costs 125.000 US$
• The missile can reach a top height of 150 meters
• The launch unit has different modes of sight, while in Battlefield 3 you can use only one (infrared) sight mode
• In Battlefield 3 you can use a SOFLAM to target an enemy tank and lock on through obstacles. In RL this is impossible, you have to have a line of sight on your target plus you cannot use any secondary system to lock on targets

This video demonstrates a very effecitve counter fire against sniping positions…

With the release the following DLCs are available:

Physical Warfare Pack

SPECACTS Kit

Remember:

You need to unlock the attachments for each wepaon seperately, this means: if you unlock the G36C (which might take several weeks), you still don’t have the laser pointer, the flash light etc… this needs additional kill to be made only with the G36C.

Hello and welcome to a new Battlefield 3 tutorial.

Today we talk about the EOD bot, because you can use it to detonate C4 at the enemies position.

The EOD bot is a gagdet that needs to be unlocked by the engineer class. Basically the EOD bot is meant to arm and disarm the objectives in the game mode “Rush”. As the bot is a little smaller than a normal player, you have a good chance to pass enemies without beeing noticed.

Additionally, you can kill enemies with the bot directly. You can burn them, but it’s a little difficult with moving targets. This part demonstrates, how it looks and feels, if you are killed by the EOD bot.

Ok, now about the cool feature:

You can use the EOD bot to transport presents… either an ammunition box for your friends, or a C4 package for your foes. Throw the ammunition box at the bot and it’s placed automatically in the correct position, the C4 needs to be placed way more carefully.

When that’s done, you just need to find a route to the enemies positions. Once you reach your destination, tell your comrade to detonate the C4… and that’s it. If friendly fire is turned off, your bot even survives and can be re-used .

The person who steers the EOD bot, will not get any points while the supporter with the C4 gets regular points for killing enemies.
