What is E? I've rebound all my keys.
same as the key you use to enter and exit other vehicles.
Ahhh, I didnt even think about that but as others have already said, E is the default enter/exit key.What is E? I've rebound all my keys.
Protip: In the Jet, 95% of your maneuvering is done by pitching up. I assume you're trying to fly with the mouse and having a hard time moving the mouse around to maneuver. So, the way I get around this is to basically use the mouse to roll left/right and pitch down as needed for aiming, but all of my pitching up is done with the spacebar.
This allows you to turn continuously becaue you're holding the spacebar down as opposed to trying to move your mouse furiously to accomplish the same move. So, join an empty server, bind pitch up to spacebar, and practice flying this way. Just do strafing runs on empty tanks or whatever you choose as a target. You'll get the hang of using spacebar/pitch up to do you major manuevers, and fine tuning using the mouse.
I also have free look bound to middle mouse, and switch weapons bound to right mouse button. Pretty good jet setup if you ask me. I tried using a 360 controller, but there was too much lag in my movements.
If you get into a dogfight don't turn left/right to try and get around the person, do loops. It's far harder to track someone who's looping because the ground and sky disorients the crap out of the person trying to follow you. Looping can usually buy you enough time for someone on your team to help you or, or for you to outloop them and get on their six.
nono
it resets the controls back to normal. haven't paid complete attention because i dont jet whore but it seems like every new map it happens

Make sure you hit apply on your bindings. If you just hit escape nothing will save.
Thanks for the spacebar trick. I use the mouse for jet flying and find that I can't keep a turn going in a jet with the mouse controlling pitch. I do ok in the jet though.
Quick question, did they nerf the heli so it can't fly below radar anymore? I can't escape from stingers after I came back to the game after a few months off. And yes the helis are really slow. I think they needed some work but now I can't survive at all in them.
If it made players stand out then I could understand, but banning for making the entire game too colorful is just lame.http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/10/03/dice-hints-bans-color-correcting-battlefield-3-mo/
I actually installed the FXAA injector mod a while back just to see what it's like, but I prefer the desaturated/saving private ryan color grading of the game as oppose to crazy supersaturated colors of the mod, too cartoony looking for me. It's interesting that this mod is bannable though.
I guess the bright overblown colors could give you the upper hand when spotting enemies.
Now that we've spent some quality time with Armored Kill, what is everyone's fav map, game type, etc. from the new DLC?
Mine in order are:
1. Armored Shield - Conquest (no jets is one of the main reasons ) Rush and Tank Superiority
2. Death Valley - Conquest and Rush
3. Bandar Desert - Conquest and Rush
4. Alborz Mts - Rush (despise playing conquest on this one)
Alborz is pretty but it's annoying as hell getting from one flag to another on that map.Funny enough, I'm the opposite. I love Alborz, the verticality of it makes it so much fun, plus I'm always distracted by the splendor of that map My least favorite is Armored Shield, it just reminds me of a less interesting Caspian Border.
I think so, I rarely play on any of the original or B2K maps other than getting my TDM fix on Noshahr Canals.Are the DLC worth it?

Death Valley is probably my favorite map, I love flag positions and the night setting. The reason I put Armored Shield first is because of its lack of jets, I hate really good jet pilots.
