We had a test run with some Arfcommers yesterday and today we're going public.

Kaf1r, YT911, and myself are sponsoring a BF3 Hardcore server due to popular demand for hardcore mode, better map lists, and active administration.

Team America Hardcore BF3 is the server name.

IP:  67.222.138.132:25200

This server is hosted by Branzone in Dallas, TX.  They have very high end server boxes with great bandwidth.

If you guys have any suggestions, or need to report hackers, cheaters, etc., this is a good place to do it.

I would also recommend joining the Arfcom Teamspeak 3 server that is graciously owned and maintained by YT911.

Team Speak 3 Server Info

ts.tagaming.net

BF3 Password: freedom


***12/24/11 UPDATE***

Visit the new Team America website at tagaming.net

Jatobi has been gracious enough to create a new Team America Website!  Its still under construction but should be fully functional after the holiday!

[TA] Is going to be represented in Star Wars: The Old Republic as well and we are looking for new members!

We will have upcoming news and events on this website as well as hacker/cheater reporting, unban appeals, and general all around good time!

Teamspeak is a program that allows you to voice chat with other people. Currently you can only voice with people in your "party" in battlelog.  Got to the teamspeak website and download teamspeak 3.  I or YT911 will post the TS3 server info when I get home from work.

"See you on the Battlefield"

The majority of arfcommers who play bf3 are on the. TS3 server everynight and a few of them during the day.

TS is a much better option. You can get the TS client here http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads

 



The server is ARFCOM.teamspeak.cc:9204

Alright people get on! I'm tired of playing with shitty teammates who only care about kills and not capping, and playing regular mode where I hit someone 5+ times with my stock AK and they kill me in two hits with a PS90.

Me actually being a teamplayer reviving, healing and capturing the point. I revived over 20 people, and I wasnt revived once!

Working on having a donation service of some sort.  We want to make sure that the community is happy with the server host before we go dumping serious money into this. So we'll feel it out for a month and after that we'll see where it goes.

Let's see you put down the IRNV scope and the F2000. Only then will we finally see you for the "boss" that you truly are.

I don't use the FN2000 And I've taken the IRNV off my weapons I use long ago

*shrugs* I've heard a lot of people complain about it. Never really saw why.

Not a cheater gun, it just takes very little skill to use.  Not very sporting for your prey. Its typically looked down upon in competitive bf3 circles, along with IRNV and Tac light mounted on primary.  But use what you want, it doesn't bother me any.

I don't have a mic but I could buy one on my way home from work... is teamspeak worth it? Is it just a gaggle of people badmouthing each other like XBox or is there a decent layer of squad tactic stuff? I don't play many online games so I'd more or less be buying the mic just for this game.
Link Posted: 11/28/2011 6:00:46 PM EDT

You could always just listen in for a night.  Its a lot easier to organize your squad with voice comms.  We do BS a bit in there, but its all in good fun.
Link Posted: 11/28/2011 6:06:19 PM EDT
[#28]
Is it open comm or push to talk?

I think I'll get a cheap mic on my way home and try it out.

Lord knows if I say anything it will be along the lines of "aw dammit I'm dead again".
Link Posted: 11/28/2011 6:18:13 PM EDT
[#29]
however you set up your client. I have mine set up to be voice activated - and comms go on headphone, while game is on surround sound.


Link Posted: 11/28/2011 7:12:23 PM EDT

Well, I have a mic and downloaded teamspeak. Tested it just now and set my configurations.

If you guys are on tonight I'll pop in... if I can just get the cat away from the new dangly wires...

I'll be on after I get off work in about an hour and a half.

No hud (doesnt tell you your ammo etc.) No third person in vehicles, people "supposedly" die a lot easier.

To put a precise number on it, you have 60% of the health you have in softcore. (I set it.)

Good games tonight!  Its 1am where I am and the server is still packed. We have people from Russia, S. Korea, Venezuela, France, Canada, and Germany all playing on the same server at the same time.

I'll be on tomorrow. Same Bat channel, Same Bat Time.

OK I have to ask... what makes the F2000 any more murderous than any other rifle with the IRNV scope?

I have the IRNV scope on the M249 and its nothing compared to the F2000...or maybe I just suck!

The F2000 has very little muzzle rise and deals a lot of damage. Even less muzzle rise with the vertical forgrip.  Strap on the cheater scope and you got yourself a god gun.

Dont know why all the bitching...if the devs put it in, they meant for it to be used. ;-) People weren't bitching before the SCAR got nerfed, plus....assault class is boring. They need a good gun or three.

This is what a platoon mate of mine told me when I mentioned it last night as well. Add in its high cyclic rate, and it's a man portable rape stick
