Keep persevering brett and you will just keep getting better Unlike Jas, who played it once, realised he couldnt QuIcKzC0pE and be all l33t and gave up and went back to COD because its safe and he can win at that.

That is the best sight going. I like it when you start shooting at someone and they dive on the ground thinking you won't be able to see them but you obviously still can with that scope

Seems like it, just so I could play with you lot. The xbox BF3 people are shit and never seem to be on. NOBODY else ever uses a mic either, it's shit in that respect, as I've not had a PROPER game with everyone communicating yet 
Shame PS3s are dog dirt.

Mics are pretty useless with more than 2 in a squad on bf3 atm until they sort it. Think its best to have a few squad of 2 instead of 4 so you can hear each other!
Game comes into its own though when you have everyone talking and rushing to the same flags and taking out tanks together

Seems to be fine with just 2 people, most of the time, but when you get 3 and 4 in its all broken chat and you cant really talk.

That problem not limited to the PS3? I've been in a game before with Eck and co and everyone could talk fine.

Mics and tactical lights are the only things that are ruining it for me.

A detailed look at Squad refinements
A detailed look at Squad refinements
Today’s PC client patch features numerous tweaks to Squad functionality and is part of our ongoing efforts to make it easier to play with friends and Platoon mates. These changes will also be implemented for consoles when we release the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 updates shortly.Stay tuned for the exact date of the console updates.
First, we need to look at how joining with Squads and Platoons affects the balance of teams. Initially, servers are commanded to equal out each side, so joining with friends can impact that balance while joining with Platoons further hinders this. As a result we have made some adjustments to the in-gameSquad management screen.
For PC, you are now able to highlight the various Squads and select which one you wish to join by selecting a Squad and then clicking the Join Squad button. Please note that the Squad Privacy option still allows 2 man Squads which, during 64 player sessions, can lead to players with no squad position –- the number of people with no Squads will be shown at the bottom of the Squad selection list.
