Funny thing just happened. On Presa Rush at the hummer part I was in their base doing road kills when my team planted the charge. So I went to see if I could run over any potential defusers. I ended up hitting a group of six or so running to defuse it. Like GTAIV Time Square, people were flying off the bumper.
Then on Isla, the pilot crash landed on the island and as a gunner on the mini gun I ended up mowing down six guys running to defuse. Heh.

it depends on the section we're on. for some areas, i'll lay mines and switch to rpg's when i die (Port Valdez), for others, i'll go with mines until we win or fall back (start of Arica Harbor) unless a very specific situation is happening where i *NEED* rockets right on spawn (like a tank rolling into the base and no squadmates have one) and other situations, i don't use mines at all. it also depends on teammates and squadmates too, if i'm playing with people who set mines, i will just go rpg7 all the way on Valparaiso.Binabik15 said:Do you lay down several rounds of mines on a set of m-coms, every time one is blown up? I just hate being engi without my rpg-7.
The stats page is fucking awesome, showing which stars you get next and all. I´m pretty surprised I have 15 2.0 kills, probably from tank shelling m-coms.
Except for one situation earlier today, C4´d a building, got at least two guys with c4 and the building collapsed, four or five guys were killed, but I got killed from the blast and it didn´t show whether it was 2.0 or straight c4.

I get on at weird times. Usually late at night. I did play with you on Nelson Bay a day or two ago, then I think you left.Mr. Snrub said:

The M16 just clicks with me. Usually I do good with my favorites like the G3 or M14, but sometimes I just can't get a feel for them (rarely). That never happens with the M16 + Red Dot with me. It never lets me down.scoobs said:played a ton tonight solo on PC. Rediscovered the m16a2 today and boy o boy.... incredible gun medium range. Went 22-1 on defense on islas. Gotta love pushing up to the hill and destroying snipers/idiots.
The patch has spawned a lot of noobs it seems. Every (yes every) game on different servers I played the last few hours were stacked. Low ranks vs high ranks with me on the low side, getting steamrolled. Pretty frustrating. Actually, it could be because it's the weekend and the people with lives are playing. Heh.
The M16 is too inaccurate for my tastes. Get in any sort of fire fight and you're screwed.
I love the AN-94, but aside from that, I've taken a liking to the AKS. I just wish SMG damage wasn't such garbage. I put 13 bullets into someone's chest the other day and they killed me with 8% life left over.

) How the hell does anyone get any kills with the g3/m14??? I've tried and tried to understand them and I never end up liking them half as much as any of the assault rifles.Mr Sandman

That sucks. I find it extremely accurate for my playstyle. I guess I just have it ingrained in my head how the burst is spread (basically a vertical line). Aim for center mass and the spread will move up to the head. Also, it works a lot better if you don't fire it too fast (you can fire it pretty quickly though). I can't stand it with an ACOG though. The red dot is fine for even long distance shots for me.1stStrike said:

With the G3 you've got to treat it as if it was semi auto in most cases.

the M14 is great, and the G3 is a mean little puppy. the G3 doesn't really take much getting used to, but with the M14 (or Garand) you just have to run with it for a while to get the hang of things...scoobs said:I truly don't understand people like you (yes I'm judging you

I just don't see any advantages these guns have over the better AR's.I love the ACOG. I've come to really rely on it.
However, the G3 (once I got used to the site) is quite nice. I've been getting more and more kills with it, and I've found that I've been using iron sights more on classes outside of assault, while taking advantage of the extra perks I can use.
Also, you really don't need magnum ammo at all with the G3. That gun does some beastly damage.

Yeah same here, i played squadless most of the night
After a few randoms quit i tried to squad-up with you guys but the game dumped me with this clan of whiny schmucks. "GeeEEeeeeez, i hit him like 8 tiiiiimes" The tone and sound of these guys would've been hilarious if it wasn't so god-awful annoying. Imagine the worst stereotype for a geeky, videogame introvert and my squad had three of them. One reminded me of Comic Book Guy buy higher and more pathetic. I eventually had to mute all 3 of them.
And i'm almost embarrassed to say that I rezzed one of the dipshits a few times right in front of mounted MG while I safely hid behind a wall.
Had a few epic games today.
One started 4 vs 3 as defenders on Port Valdez, I layed down some mines and waited to get killed. Didn´t happen, I camped the wall mounted MG behind alpha until a tank killed it. I ran out of ammo completely 4 (!!!) times and in the end had 2 full killstreaks before finally dieing defending bravo. Spawned again, killed one guy, died again, bam, game over. The game was full in the end, but I was at the top with a very comfortable buffer between me and the sceond guy. Tank mined 4 or 5 tanks, sniped snipers with my G3, it was awesome. 17-2 without magnum ammo :lol
Had another game on Laguna Presa and I have to admit, I lame´d a couple of m-coms with c4. Turn it on and throw c4 at the same time, blow up if shot at or wait until defenders come and pull the trigger. Destoyed the last m-com of the game with the guided missile launcher. Destroyed 6 m-coms in this game, got first with 3k points, around 1k more than the second, but managed to get ZERO c4 kills and had overall 2 or 3 more deaths than kills.
I don´t know why, I simply die more than I kill whenever I play assault, only class where I have an overall k/D <1.
So pretty good games today, but what I really wanted were some god damned C4 kills and grenade kills, only insignias I´m missing. I got two of each :/
Edit: had a very bad game in the beginning, my skill level got cut from 191 to 159 :lol IT´s now back up 191. How is this even calculated, sometimes I feel like I´m destroying left and right and my lvl drops, other times I do jack all the whole game and it increases.

My favorite AR is the M416. No one else seems to really like it, but it's just so well rounded. It does need magnum ammo though.
So I've pretty much gotten the hang of conquest and it's pretty fun. I'm trying to get the pin where you "obtain a squad attack order and a squad defend order"
It seems you get the attack order just by pressing select on a flag when it is neutral or controlled by the other team. Is this correct, and how do I get the defend order? Do I press select on the flag when the other team is capturing it? I tried for 2-3 games last night and got one defend order but couldn't get both to happen in the same round.
Help! these last few pins are annoying. I have to get the vehicle pins and one more spec act as well.

I'll probably be on bc2 pc for most of the day if any gaffers would care to join in the fun, I'm usually on xfire voice chat so let me know if you have it, and we can strategize and such lol. My name on bc is: Mr Nightman

If there was FF i would probably end up spending half my time smiting worthless team-mates.... Gawd, I'm starting to sound like Seks!
@Jtrizzy: you're not alone, i like the M416. I'm usually running assault with the AN-94 but I switch up to the 416 or the XM8 on occasion.

I fucking give up. Tried to go and get the update for the MoH beta, but the game wouldn't start so I'm re-dling it. I'm not playing BC2 till the weekend is over.
We were in a conquest game and me, dreamgazer and cruzader were the only ones trying to cap flags. The entire team was just fucking off in one spot doing not a damn thing. Then I got disconnected, rejoined, and got disconnected again. Then the game wouldn't update my stats, just sat there for a minute doing nothing.
God damn, I can't even enjoy the fucking game with all of this shit.
Well that sucks I was just about to join you guys. If anyone wants to play tonight just send me an invite or add me...my PSN is Jtrizzy
Strike/Dreamgazer--I demand you return and show me how to get these last few pins.
As far as the frustration of playing in bad games, I think we just need to be more willing to switch servers. Although it does make it hard to get 6-8 gaffers on one team like last night. That shit is fun, even though it's too easy at times.
