Do you have a squad that you are constantly chatting with?

You'll understand when you start playing with a consistent group of players, or when your fellow random players start to understand how to approach BF3 as an objective based game. You would think there would be enough people that played Bad Company 2... The basic Rush and Conquest modes haven't really changed. So people should understand that teamwork pays off BIG.

Ex. 2 engineers double up in a tank. While there is nobody there, as the 2nd gunner, I'm happily riding along in the tank, spotting jets and copters, using zoomed view to continually scan for op-for and most importantly of all, enemy tanks and anti-tank infantry.
If I spot another tank, I will hop out, fire off my AT weapons, then get on repairing my tank. At some point, I may run out of repair and the tank gets damaged too much, so the other engineer hops out and starts to repair. I get back in, this time as the primary gunner, and continue to shoot the other tank.
Sure, this tactic is a little cheap, but 9/10, you're tank is going to take down the other tank and make it to the objective to wreak havoc.


Another simple thing would be using your squad as spawn.
As an attacker in rush, make sure somebody is always alive and have the other 3 continually hit the objective. With your superior spawn location, you'll have more advantageous firing lanes for incoming enemies and will likely end up beating your opponents due to less spawn-to-objective walk time.
