I havnt noticed anything different besides it taking a few more shots to destroy a tank. I run support anyways and plant c4. Id suggest playing on a hardcore server where its alot more realistic

hip firing snipers and one shot kills are not battlefield. Three maps in a row last night and I got sick of it. I run support as well, the 240 is nerfed bigtime.

Are you just talking about the new maps or all of them?

All of the maps....the issue was the patch that came along with the DLC. The fact that you have to use 3/4 of your team with Stingers to take out a heli or plane is ridiculous. It was already hard enough to take one down if they had a engineer on board (heli) or a halfway decent pilot. When I finally unlock the air to ground missiles with the jet, it will be so overpowered and throw everything out of balance imo. Thats not the worst thing imo though, the mines being marked red on the map and able to be seen by the tank drivers makes them pretty much obsolete and very ineffective.

Agree with this. Just dumb.

At first I thought it was, too. Then I promptly died several times to mines while not paying attention. Once I adjusted, though, they never catch me off guard anymore.

It's a trade-off, though. If they're not visible, it's too easy to place them in a shadow or in rubble and it's impossible to see them without infrared. It was really annoying just dying all the time in tanks.

I actually like it like it is now. Now mines are only a distraction at an objective, not a way to get cheap kills. While the tank is worrying about blowing up all the mines, you sneak up and plant the C4, or if they're your mines, you're gonna have to use the repair tool.

I use the FLIR when I'm in a tank and the mines show right up, don't even bother looking at the map. I got pretty good aiming the big gun so I don't even miss a beat coming up on mines. Just blow me a hole thru the mines and keep pressing.

So why don't they go ahead and make everything visible like claymores and hell, make all the enemy soilders stand out on the map full time with direction arrows. Make snipers in prone glow. Aircraft all lock all the time. Better yet, just make me unkillable and ally bullets automatically hit and kill everything 100% of the time.

Tuesday? Was this released with BTK on both systems? It's been nerfed up for weeks on PS3.

I figured the patch was released at the same time.

I guess the patch could be noticed more by players based on the style of play. As I hinted before with my setup in a tank the land mines have been obsolete for a while.
