All the weapons are OP according to whiners that get killed by them

The only really broken weapon atm is the UMP-45...which is why I've been using it constantly for the past two weeks.

The UMP-45 is brilliant

One thing i've noticed about shotties is they don't like to be sprayed, in other words shot while moving. The hit reg is bloody awful, rememeber that video of the guy and the other guy walking left... then walking right while shooting, lots of missed hits and failed hitreg shots. Guy in front of me was moving, i aimed for his head while straffing from the left as i was being shot at and didn't want to stand still. 4 headshots, even saw his head wack back with no damage and no kill. He shot me with an assault rifle and i died.

Tried again on another player but instead of moving i just stood still, fired at distance at the guy and he died instantly. This was almost sniper rifle distance!. I've even shot above someone before in sudden panic of seeing an enemy and killed them!.

I'm hopeing that the hitreg is so much better in BF3

Btw some of these weapons are deadly at very long range, the sniper rifle should be the weapon of distance not a bloody pistol or medic weapon!

shotguns fire shot you can get hits with 1 pellet and do pee all damage.

but yeah it's amazing that you just like the people who play hardcore and complain that it takes "whole clips" to kill people on normal, still die to a few well aimed shots instead of spray fire.


shot guns are perfectly capable of kill from the hip and on the run that goes for buckshot, slugs, the pump shotties and the autos.



Come to think of it I hardly every remember being killed by evil an his shotgun when he's standing still :/

I just hope your aim is better so we don't have to put up with your constant ***ing whining.

Blow me!

You have an answer to everything in this thread don't you?, anyone in this thread has a complaint and you come along as if the game is bloody perfect. You think this game has no flaws and it always comes down to the person

Also noticed you are the same in other threads as well, yet whatever i post is 99.9% accurate to what other people have been saying too!

Problems with hitreg occur very rarely in my experience, it is either down to a laggy server or your internet connection.

The former wouldn't occur on most servers and the latter is down to your experience. If you have a crappy broadband, you can't blame BFBC2 for it.

I like the fact that BFBC2 has a different feel to many of the weapons that makes learning them unique in a way.

Oh, and that video is like a year old now, those bugs were fixed a long time ago.

EDIT: on a rare occasion I can hear that I headshoted a guy right before he kills me. Somehow he manages to stay alive with 100% health and I'm mad. Not sure if it's down to the game or a server though.

Hey guys,

got a week off so was looking at getting a game to pass the time by,

Is BF:BC2 worth getting atm? I know the third one is just round the corner, but its to be had for £20 on steam.

Cheers.

I wouldn't hold your breath for BF3, it isn't coming out any time soon (read: not before Q4 2011).

BFBC2 is brilliant although it should be priced more like £10-15 now (possibly with the Vietnam expansion).

Uknown, could well be server side. For example last night, top of the scoreboard every hit was on target even got called a cheater

I've seen a few ocukers leave a server because none of their hits would register, but was fine for me!

PP2000 = best gun ever! Pew pew pew

EDIT: I play HC. Is that acronym a swear word in this thread?

seems to be , i don't mind either

Right, ive gone for it. Got it from Steam.

Will anyone be around tonight for a few games? Last MP game i played on the PC was SoF2 that was a long time ago!

 

[Delboy]

I've had plenty of instances either where my aim was completely off (i'm not saying I'm a crack shot in every instance but I'm not bad) or something server side was affecting my game. I can't put my finger on it but it just 'feels' different to me and I miss lots and lots of shots that I normally wouldn't. It is at that point I will go hunting for another server to see if that fixes it and for the most part it does. I guess it may depend on the tick rate of the server and/or how many other instances of games it is running - but then I would have thought it would affect everyone on the server....or perhaps I'm the only one that complains about it

I do believe that the server is definately ahead of the client though in terms of hitreg. Tons of times I've been killed in what I believe to be a one shot from across the map only to query it in mumble and find out they'd been peppering me with shots for a while and were half a clip down when I died. Clientside though it appeared as though someone had hit me with a sniper rifle in the head, first time. Just part of the game.

And yes, I won't stop using Shotguns - there are many occasions when I feel like a change and switch from assault gun to shotty or the map lends itself to a closer quarter combat strategy. I've found I tend to switch class depending on the map. E.g. Leguna Presa I always tend to switch to engie + mines + ump or pp2000 + red dot and mag ammo - lay mines near the tank and then go kill some peeps. Where as Isla or Arica I'll tend to stick with Assault + XM8-P etc.

One word of advice. Be prepared to die a lot intially. It does get frustrating.

Well said Delboy, i just think it's because i'm more vocal but just like Dragon Age 2 more often than not people will start to back me up. I've done the same as you, if my hits are just not registering( ignoring the poor excuse of AIM better ) i'll join another server. Then it's back to brilliance again

I've seen you play, and I've seen you bitch about hit reg and how bad the server was when I've watched your shots going off at wild angles that couldn't possibly be due to lag/hit reg or anything other than poor aim, unless players regularly fly up into the air for you that is.

which is also pretty accurate to what other people have said to me about you after one of your oh so frequent "omg hit reg rants".

xm8p (second assault rifle you get) is a beast.

in like a quarter of my play time steve already has like a 1000, more kills with it than I do on my m24.

and steve strafe sprays like he's playing l4d

Damn you are good if you can see what i'm aiming at and which direction the bullets are going, i bow before your BFBC2 skills . Now you're making poor excuses and lieing just to backup your post, which isn't good enough! . I'll say this i have moments of bad aim, i have moments where i miss NOBODY is perfect. But i know damn well know when my aim is spot on and should damn well kill you, i've had others say exactly the same to me.

It is quite easily (for me) the best assault rifle in the game, although in the right hands the AEK (the first one) is very good. Got me a 23-0 using that on one session (yes Rifleman, 23-0 - i'll keep bringing it up until you beat it - no choppers allowed)

And RE steve, he's a one trick pony in a one horse town. He uses nothing but the XM8-P as it gets him the most kills (admitedly he is a crack shot with it).

Live a little Steve, pick a different weapon for a bit, there are more out there - USAS-12 for example, eh Tefal!
