If you're going in expecting to be using armor exclusively, pick out your kit. Engineer is probably your best choice. Bring your repair tool, you'll need it. As far as weapons go, a compact weapon for close quarters will be a good choice. When you exit your tank for any reason, your biggest threat will be enemies near by, so think defense when on foot.
As for your tank load out, consider the situations you will most likely encounter. Are you probably going to encounter many opposing tanks? Guided Shells may be a good choice. Is the range of engagement large…
General tips for survival in Battlefield 3
- 1 Preparing for combat
- 2 Warfare is deception
- 3 Take advantage of what you find
- 4 Dangers of choke points
- 5 Speed
When loading out for combat, take time to choose the right tools for the job. Basic sense comes in to play, here. Think about what you're going to encounter and prepare accordingly. A rocket launcher will do little in a setting with no vehicles. Take a good look at the map and figure out your plan of attack. Notice the location of objectives and consider how you'll get to them.

Battlefield 3 How to be a Medic
You all knew it was a matter of time until I published by first Battlefield 3 related gameplay guide. And, since I have become well known for my medical antics, I figured it would be appropriate to start off with a medic guide.
First off, in Battlefield 3, the Assault class is the medic class. For Battlefield 2 veterans, this is could be a welcome return to something familiar. For players who only got into Battlefield during the Bad Company spin-offs, this is a weird change. That said, the Assault class is intended to make up the majority of infantry players, and it does. All assault, except for the newbies, carry defibrillators. That means that, under normal circumstances, at least 1/3 of the people around you have the ability to revive. Wh…
Look for my new guides
With the coming release of Battlefield 3, I've come to realize that my guides, while still perfectly relevant for Bad Company 2, are going to end up potentially obsolete in regards to Battlefield 3. So, I plan on republishing many of my guides to better fit Battlefield 3. Keep an eye out for them.
