no i have never crossed a "competent mortar team". you know why? BECAUSE THEY'RE STOOD STILL AT THE BACK OF THE MAP. there are 101 ways to get around to killing them and ending their shitty little barrage; or, failing that (in the case of rush), you can just go mortar yourself and play point-and-click-adventure-games with their pretty little mortar icons on the map. then they're dead and gone, and you can advance. SUPER TUFF HI SKILL TACTICOOL PLAY, TROOPER!
When you don't have mortars yourself, and the 2 enemy mortars are behind the map boundary there's nothing you can do. If you stop in the same spot for more than 2 or 3 seconds, you die, if you don't stop, you die from small arms fire.

shifty you only die in mortar fire if you're firing a gun (sans suppressor) and staying in the same place without moving. this is definitely a l2p issue. stop walking into choke points where mortar fire will obviously be dropped, and stop lying behind rocks with your noob squad getting rained on continuously. learn2play.

I was running from cover to cover, but the first part of Metro only has so many places to take cover and shoot before moving up. Running from cover to cover exposes yourself to small arms, and staying there gets you killed by mortars.

In another map I don't see this being an issue but that first section of Metro was impossible to pass. I either got a KH2002 to the face, or a mortar.

No, stop being silly, have you ever even played with a mortar?

I think I am the most qualified guy her to talk about mortars (lol! xD so randum!) as any of the AU guys will attest to. I have my mortar medal, and I wear my proficiency dogtag will trolling pride.

I have 320 kills with the mortar, and I can tell you that limiting the ammo to ANY number is just retarded. I would have probably dropped 2-3 thousand mortars to get those 320 kills. I have had guys spotting for me, saw my mortar land not even 3 feet away from the guy (he was at full health) and no kill. They then he was killed immediately after and I got a kill assist 30. 30! flak jacket or not, I dropped it a few feet off his toes and I only did 30 damage. I can count the amount of multikills I've gotten from it on one hand, and that was from dropping 3 rounds on the same group of people before the actual kill. The splash damage is negligible, the damage full stop is so pathetic I have had round actually land on guys and not get a kill.

Do you know how many kills I would get with 3-4 rounds? One, if I'm lucky. 9/10 I would get none, maybe a few damage assists. Everyone who complained about mortars, quickly stopped once they got it. Its isn't nearly as effective as people claim..

Mortars are so pathetic infact, that I will only use it on Seinne, I won't even bother equipping it on any other map. And the second someone on the enemy equips the mortar, I spend all my time playing cat and mouse with them, since A GIANT ICON SHOWS UP FOR EVERYONE TO SEE PLAIN AS DAY. Quit screaming nerf, nothing in this game needs to be nerfed, infact vehicles need to be buffed. Everything is fine so far.

And shifty, no-one expects you to keep running forward to avoid mortars. But fuck, move 3 feet in any direction and you're safe. Or even better, stop playing fucking rush. The only people who die to mortars are either very unlucky, have hardly any health anyway, or over stayed their welcome long enough for the mortar to see you, line you up, lob one, wait 3-4 seconds for it to hit, and maybe drop 1-2 more on top of you in that time.

I didn't even bother reading it all, because you seem to be totally blind...(no I haven't played mortar) but I'm not crying that I'm not getting kills as a mortarfaggot am I?

one mortar guy is fucking worthless just sad sitting there on his potty getting assists , the thing you obviously fail to see is that bazaar/seine(spelling?)/all cqc maps have ATLEAST 3 mortars firing at the chokepoints 24/7 , and yes I'm able to stay alive but playing rush on bazaar is fucking worthless , 4 mortars firing in the ally and the road at the people who stays there more than 2 seconds and snipers camping the road... it's useless you won't get anywhere , without 2 squads doing some serious teamwork...and you won't find that in bf3 the next 2 years , if ever...

I've only played with the mortars a few rounds. Kinda weak IMO.

Fire and move, if a mortar shell lands near me I just move to a different cover. Nobody but you seems to be confounded by this simple tactic.

more then enough + the fact that with unlimited ammo for mortars and mortar instead of ammobag , make even recons better teamplayers

so...(yeah I'm gonna whine about it)

I've (surpriseingly , lol spell? )lived through all the years of bf2 and nade-spam , and every other fps I've played for that matter , If you ask me , you shouldnt be able to throw a nade if there were'nt more than 3 enemies/a vehicle in the "throw radius", nades are cheap and require barely any aim ...bla bla and so on , I hate nades .

Noobtubes aren't as bad , since you have to aim them they can't be thrown over the cover you're sitting on your ammobag behind , and often have a smaller blast radius than nades (but ofc. there are always annoying cunts who wont stop overusing it )

bazookas/rocketlaunchers/nooblauncher/whatever in bf2 they barely had and blastradius and were slow compared to your soliders movement-speed and to some skill to hit inf with , in bc2 everyone who couldn't get a KDR with a WEAPON used CockGag2 , and as soon as a vehicle showed up they ran away like the pussies they were

and here we go with the noobtube with unlimited ammo and "UAV-map" on the same time , it might not kill alot when used by only one player but it wounds and it supresses and it makes a fucking lot a noise , and if used by multiple support players aiming at about the same area as eachother it's lethal...

not to mention hardcore, where you wont regen health even if you survive a mortar shell

you can't look at mortars from an individual point of view. Oh boohoo I only get 30 kills in a round with them so they're not overpowered at all, just learn to play! adapt!

how about fuck off, have any of you even tried playing rush mode on offense with several mortar spammers going at it constantly? Doesn't matter so much that you ONLY got 2nd mvp and a 7:1 KDR when there's several of you doing it constantly, and the poor actually-playing-the-fucking-game-scumbags like me can't take cover anywhere.

Not to mention that 'click on map, maybe get kill' is fucking awful game design to begin with

Don't play rush then. Or if you're playing a round with people spamming mortars, then leave (or just l2p). It's never happened to me, maybe because im not shit
