hey, does anybody both to use the 40mm shotgun? opinions?
Woot, just received official M60 whore status! (got my platinum star)
Nerf away Dice, I've done my damage
Now to actually level some real weapons. God I hope I still know how to aim!
I'd still play hardcore if by chance that was remotely true, the normal mode is unplayable to me. Feels like trying to kill someone in UT with the enforcer.
anybody else having lag issues today? It's getting on my nerves, it's bad lag, like lag where people/vehicles warp... first the game kinda freezes for a second then the warp happens. I made sure there are no downloads going on so it has to be the dang game. I even tried joining different servers and all of them are laggy as hell!
What use are dedicated servers if they rubber-band like crazy and you always have to search for a new one since favorites and history don't work?
Kinda feel like I wasted 40$ on this buggy console port.
I got platinum with the m60 and haven't used it since, just feels too cheesy
When I play a sniper, one thing that really is starting to piss me off is the LMGs being anti-sniper weapons.
If you shoot a medic at sniping distance, but do not kill him, he can shoot in your general direction and kill you before you have a chance to bolt action another bullet into the chamber.
I mean, come on, we complain about realism, but this is just stupid... a fucking 50 caliber bullet at 2k miles per hour is going to wreck shit. But, no, instead, your would-be victim can immediately recover from this and fire a 24 pound (weight without ammo, BTW) M60 from the hip at 300 feet and kill you before you can get another bullet in the chamber.
While I understand your point, my friend, this is how I like to play the class. If I wanted short to mid-range, I would play assault.Don't play a sniper, play Recon.
the only thing I hate is the Gustav people.... I have never seen one used for anything but infantry sniping.
I managed to take the dog tags of someone who was a level 49 but all I managed to get were bronze tags.
If there was no room in the chopper I would have killed you too.
This is definitely true, but then it's an absurd sniper fest and the GL/CG are vicious.
yeah, I have platinum M60 and noob tube as well =/
The guns need some balance.
I just play in hardcore mode which negate the advantages of the M60 for the most part. Though they are dangerous to the recon guys, it is there fault for not hiding well enough, and moving on when they've fired one or two shots.
I just unlocked the HK-416 and ran up that very hill killing about 5 recon guys before they knew what hit them. I got platinum repeating that trick. Dumbasses kept doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results.
HK-416 is that the M416? Forgive my gun ignorance

When i play BFBC2,(mainly on PS3) I tend to mostly play engineer class
Image snip............
For some reason i just do not see why so many people love the Gustav, as I just never found it to be very useful.
Instead i prefer the RPG, mainly because its more powerful on tanks, and yet faster then the M136 AT4.

I prefer to use guns rather then rockets on infantry.
In close quarters i would just end up inflicting damage on myself with the rockets,
and for long range i just find they are too slow and not that effective in my hands.
My favorite two weapons for engineer are the AKS74U, and UMP-45

The Gustav has a larger splash damage radius and reloads faster. It also has a better sighting system. I think you can also carry more ammunition for the Gustav than the RPG-7. In short the Gustav is a better anti-personnel weapon than the RPG-7 is. However the RPG-7 does better against tanks and I believe the M136 AT4 does better than both in that regard, but is the worst for anti-personnel use. I'm not 100% sure about my information on the M136 AT4 as I haven't unlocked it or used it yet.

Yea It's been happening a lot recently... I think it's related to the servers, because I join a new one and the problem goes away.
It is annoying as fuck.
You can unscope with the M136 and let it fly like a dumb-fired rocket, so it's not necessarily awful against infantry.

Yes it is. I'm not sure why they are called "M416" in the game given that the HK-416 has never been adopted by the military as far as I know. It has never received an "M" designation. It could simply be that EA/DICE never bothered to license the name from HK and went with "M416" to avoid getting in trouble with HK. After all Heckler and Koch loves litigation.

Everything with a 4x scope is dangerous to snipers in HC. Also shotguns with 12 gauge slugs are dangerous to snipers in HC.
Granted if you get a good sniper they'll take you out instantly, but normally if you hide well and keep on the move when you're in the open (I always sidestep back and forth as I walk through the open), you'll hear the "pew" of a sniper missing you, then you spot them, still keeping on the move, hear another "pew" as they miss again, as soon as you hear that pew, stop, aim, and kill them before they get the next shot off. I'm amazed how few snipers MOVE. They just sit there like retards. I rarely ever snipe, but when I do I keep relocating and after each shot while waiting to get the next bullet in the chamber I get back behind cover or at the very least, if no cover is available, sidestep back and forth to make myself a tough target for the enemy.

That's what I've been doing. Pretty clumsy, this server browser.
Any suggestions for the Favorites?
i have problems trying to add a server to favorites. i click the drop down, add to fav, and then the window pops up saying getting server details or whatever and just sits there forever.

Dice needs to do another bug fix, lots of little irritating things that may not effect gameplay it just ruins the immersion
The only way I can get it to save favorites is by finding out which server you want to favorite. Clear the search field by hitting reset, type in the server name (case sensitive), then when it pops up, click on the drop down to add to favorites and it'll be under your favorite tab.
I have seen your kind before... I'll nail you on the first shot if you zoomed in and moving
find me then
I never stay in the open for more then 3-4 seconds unless Im going to a new spot. Most snipers cant hit a moving target to save thier life, but... after 1200 kills with the GOL its pretty natural.
Then the sniper was just bad. If he can't even hit a single body shot in HC, he's literally dead weight in normal mode since he needs to head shot.
I've sniped in both HC and normal... HC sniping is a pathetic joke.
That's why I started off by saying "Granted if you get a good sniper they'll take you out instantly"
However it my observation that maybe 1 in 10 snipers is actually good The rest you just hear "pew" "pew" "pew" as they constantly miss you and your team mates (assuming you dont stand still for too long). Even the good ones you see the smoke trail as they kill your friends and you have a pretty good chance of taking them out with most the 4x scope weapons or the 12 gauge. The 12 gauge is my personal favourite, if you know where a sniper, even if he's good, you have a pretty good chance of taking him out.
