I do pretty well on the all-Rush, limited recon servers, but if it starts getting into squad deathmatch I just get wrecked, wookies sniping me from all over hell and I can barely hit anything when I try recon. Seems like the early sniper rifles are terrible, or my ping is hurting me trying to do long distance stuff.

With that said I doubt anyone here on [H] can get 100 kills in a normal BC2 server against noobs or not on the servers I play in (KOS or iO 24/7 isla/valpo)
If you think it's so easy go try to do it yourself. I bet you will fail, people have gotten really good at AT4's.
Lets have a nice little bet... Get on my friends list and if you can do it while I'm in the server I'll send you $20 paypal.No joke, real talk.

.............then you woke up and ate your cornflakes
takes a few days/weeks to get used to it. Or at least I did. The field of view is tiny, there is no strafing, and just about everyone has much better weapons then you. Play conquest on heavy metal map. Has a bit of everything and is a tad bit slower paced so you wont die non stop like in deathmatch/rush.

The m24 isn't bad at all. Just remember it isn't hit scan; bullets take time to travel, so you need to lead your targets a bit and there is also bullet drop.
Also, if you're getting brutalized by snipers in a server, go assault with smoke grenades as your 40mm choice. Very few people use it, but it's incredibly useful for advancing under its cover.
Given the hit box mechanics in this game, no other class is as hurt by ping as sniper. It can be really frustrating to track a moving target, shot at it, see the blood spatter but not have the hit register. Point being there is a whole other level of being used to the game to be better at sniping. Once you get used to your ping you will have a better idea of how much to lead a target.

I could absolutely get 100 kills on a normal BC2 server. I've gotten close to it many times in the past actually -- and I do it by not playing that terrible, static gametype RUSH + use vehicles the entire time. (good ol' quake3/wsw skills always give me an edge)
On that note, this is why no one should be impressed or intimidated by the 3.5 KD/R players list you linked to earlier. I've played against AppletonB, bh-, smk on a few occasions and I've always killed them more than they killed me; despite their sitting in vehicles for over 75+% of the time. It's honestly not terribly difficult to get a high KD/R with a competent squad, using vehicles, and most importantly playing RUSH. I don't understand how anyone can prefer that gametype over Conquest. It's no where near as dynamic and eclectic.
This pic was of a normal ticket server that I joined a few minutes into. Good times (my e-peen couldn't fit on the screen sometimes)
**the only player I've ever met that managed to really give me a hard time is a guy named zeroburrito. Very good aim, tactics, and game sense.

So is the M416 the flavor of the month gun now? Haven't played BC2 in a while, just got back into it and seems like every Assault is using it.

Nah, was just legit wondering if they buffed it or something since last time I played everyone was hopping on the AN94 bandwagon, but now on the few servers I've been to it looks like everyone replaced it with the M416
416, XM-8 and AN-94 are all equally popular I'd say. Probably the top three.

You sound like the kinda guy I'd love to squad up with, gg's!
416 is popular because its so easy to use.
Srsly, it was my fastest platinum ever. I think it took like 1 weekend. It has the damage of the xm8 and an94, but for some reason i find it easier to get accurate shots with. I'm an iron sight shooter (need my extra nades) and the iron sights ont he 416 are just easy.
an94 USED to be the highest damage AR, but it's short range damage was nerf'd to match the xm8 and 416.
XM8 is also pretty pimp. I find it better for medium-short range because of its higher firing rate. i use the 416 and an94 for medium - long range.

LOL?
I was kicked from Arica Harbor map for "Exploiting". WTF?
Attakers can destroy very first A and B MCOMs with tanks from the distance. This is what I was doing. Defenders team instead of trying to destroy my tank that is VERY possible decided to kick me. What a shame Learn how to play, guys.
I agree that this is somwhat cheap practice. But game allows to do this. When I defend Arica Harbor I'm very good at destroying such ataking tanks.
The same you can do on ValparaIsio with CG. Very first MCOMs can be destroyed from the distance. But, defenders can easily stop this using good snipers. This is first time I'm kicked in this way.

Comon. All ground vehicles are like sitting ducks. Easy to destroy with CG and , especially, with mines. Just use the freaking mines at the begining of the round, and then switch class if you wish. It will bring you many free kills
Choppers in hands of good pilot indeed is pretty deadly. It is very difficult to destroy. In such case I start using cover more then usual and it works well for me.
omg i <3 you. on Isla thats all I do. I usually put anti smoking quotes in chat as I smoke their snipers.
Smoke and C4 are the two most useful addons in the game. I use c4 in the craziest ways.
Also since I've figured out how to throw C4... i mean THROW c4. I hit tanks like Tom Brady does Wes Welker. They dont stand a chance.
I was kicked a few times for putting C4 on the mcomm as I'm arming it. I throw a motion mine in there and wait for the poor sap to come in and disarm.
Seriously its the funniest part of playing. People bitch about it but did you know enemy C4 and Mines will appear when you throw a motion mine?
How hard is it to launch a grenade in there before you blindly go in and disarm?
Theres ways to counter virtually any tactic in the game. Why is it people refuse to modify their playing style? I like to think they're actually not smart enough to do it.

That is pretty nice way to get rid of defenders. I do not see anything wrong with it. It's strange that you were kicked for doing this.
I'm usually through grenades at MCOM when it armed. works well for me.
That is, actually, pretty hard because:
1. Time is ticking and you might not have enoght time to disarm MCOM if you first launch greande at it.
2. You might and most possibly will kill some of you team mates with grenade since they are also runnig towards MCOM to disarm it.
3. In my experience it is very seldom C4 is planted on MCOM by attakers.
I dont play on hard core so there is no issue with killing team mates.
EVERY time i go in to disarm i throw in a grenade as long as I have one. It will take out any C4 and if someone is near I'll probably get a hit indicator letting me know to watch my back.
Its another tactic that isnt used as often as it should. Its plastered all over alot of server rules when you join. Sometimes I dont see it, forget, or they make it up after they're getting killed by it.
I tend to look out for alot of the crap that I pull. I go to alot of my hiding spots and look for people. Most of the time nobody is there. Makes me think I got some good ideas. I admit i play DIRTY. I play dirty because I'll just be bitching that someone else is doing it. Theres no honor system in playing video games.
---------------------------------------------
What I've been doing lately....
I play alot of Valpo. When I'm on defense and lose the 2nd mcomm in my retreat I get up on the cliff on the defenders right side. Attackers use this all time because when they get that set of mcomms the little hill that you use to jump up on is now in their base. If you get up there before hand, you can secure an exploit in the game and you also have a very nice vantage point of the rest of the map.
Another tip for the defenders on the 3rd set of mcomms. SMOKE. Snipers will almost surely be on the hill. Give them cancer! The tank will surely try to sit up on that hill as well and rain down on B and the gunner will try to take out anyone it can. Smoke the tank. The gunner cant see and due to recoil the tank wont be hitting B blindly. This might allow for a chance for someone to get some c4 on it.
On the mcomm before it snipers love to get in that light house. Smoke the windows to the light house.
SMOKE SMOKE SMOKE SMOKE! Its a god send.

do what everybody else does and use an at4. much more effective against air targets than the tacer darts.
Plus, vsmoke cooldown is like 30 seconds now, so they can just drop your darts anyway. They were more effective before when cooldown was 1 minute.
What model? What is input lag in ms?
+100500. This is my most used weapon in Rush when attacking. I even now manage to kill people with smoke grenades. It is a one shot kill + SMOKE
Gustav!
If you can hit it with a dart, you can hit it with a Gustav.
AT4 is easier though.
I'm pretty sure you can use vehicle smoke every 10 seconds.

Any definitive fix for the PC freezes while playing? I can play maybe 30 minutes before my whole computer locks up and I have to hard reset. I heard it is an issue with Realtek or Punkbuster.
I've tried sfc scan, manually updating punkbuster and lowering the sampling rate in Realtek. Right now the game is unplayable. Any ideas? PC in sig.

After much trial and error I found out it was Sapphire Trixx. If I close the program it doesn't lock my computer. Without a custom fan profile running I need to manually set a fan speed in CCC or else my overclock makes my card get too hot and I crash to desktop.
It's annoying but at least it's nothing I can't work around.

Since we are on the topic of freezing, does anyone else have the 45 second freeze, whenever you first join a server.
Only happens the first time I fire the game up, first server i join I freeze, then after that no problems.
