    So I noticed that my gaming time is quite high these days... to the point where I might have a problem :pac:

    So I wonder can you guys make me feel a bit better about myself, How many hours have you spend on bf3?

    530hrs for me (since the new year).... I can kinda justify it in my own mind that I would have otherwise been watching mindless TV.

    Dont worry dude, 530 isnt that high. I've got 652 hours played since release. I have only played a few hours in the past 3 months though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,906 ✭✭✭✭PhlegmyMoses


    510 hours. Barely played in the last 3 months so that'll tell you how much I had been playing. Every night, 2-3 hours before the summer.

    I'm at 513 hours, seems like a completely crazy number but really its the sign of a great game :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    277

    which is oddly 177 more than BF2 and im convinced i played Bf2 more :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,627 ✭✭✭The Freeman


    pumped in 330 or so for bc2, bought a gaming rig specifically for bf3 a month ago as its such an upgrade from the console and a different game really, only get to play it in the second home where i spend 2 nights a week, so just under 20 hours currently. i do miss my ritual of a bottle of wine and a bit of battlefield when i wasn't working though, good times..good times...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭sebastianlieken


    *phew* I feel better now :)

    BF2 I had only racked up a mere 65hrs and BFBC I got a slightly more respectable 230hrs. (K/D ratio in BFBC was 2.4 .... damn that's not bad!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭sebastianlieken


    also, sorry for anyone who has played +1000 hrs and finds themselves without an option to select... thought 1000hrs was a pretty reasonable limit!

    KD is 1.0 im an equal oppurtunities player.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,588 ✭✭✭ahnowbrowncow


    190 hours for me, I go a few weeks or months without playing but always go back to it for a few days cause it's easily the best fps I ever played.
    Got a k/d of 3.87, not too bad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,411 ✭✭✭jonski


    598 since it came out and I am just off for a game now .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    KD is 1.01


    ****e it doesnt say how many flags i capped, one thing that annoys me about the BF3 stats.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 3,093 Mod ✭✭✭✭ktulu123


    You get flag attacker ribbons, one for every 4 you capture. I have 1211 of them :) That stat should be on the main page though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,106 ✭✭✭SpannerMonkey


    or you can equip the flag attacker dog tag and it will tell you and everyone you kill how many flag captures you have ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭Taylor365


    Less than 100 i know that. Probably in the 20-40 region and i have the game since April.

    That's going to change as I've just started to learn how to fly the jet using an xbox controller. Soooo much better than M/KD.

    Still can't grasp the Heli with it's X/Y/Z dipping. Blows my mind every time i get in one :/

    getting kills with the jet is hard work! even if you're really good! Other jet pilots just eject and you dont get the kill, you've to be very quick and accurate with the cannon.

    As for helis; you get used to them, their controls become an extention of your arm. You need to be semi-decent to rack up the kills as a pilot, but at least rocket damage is a bit higher since the original un-patched version and the flying behaviour of the russian heli is on par with the Viper. Look after your gunner and he'll look after you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭Taylor365


    My Play time is actually near 60 hours. (I'd say a good 20 in the last month alone)

    Trying to spend as much time as possible in the jets and helis to rack up the upgrades. Have gotten a few nice heat-seeker kills with the jet and shuffling a squad from flag to flag is really rewarding in the heli :)

    Haven't really played since August. Clocked up 403 hours on the main account and maybe an extra day or two on the other account.
