That's the uber-rifle that you can buy in Counter-Strike isn't it? If so, I'll be paying a lot more attention to the sniper class :D

It is indeed the uber rifle from CS :) I have recently got a little bit hooked on sniper play and I will be looking forward to seeing if its worth getting the add on pack for this rifle.

the p90 and AWP are both from euro force but are gonna be in vanilla bf2 aswell.
Oooh P90 as well? Cool.



I'll be honest when I say I don't touch sniper. Why? No teamwork score is one reason. The other is I'll unload a clip into someone's head and not one will score a hit. Now I was around in the early days of online gaming where leading a target meant aiming about 50metres in front of them (okay an exaguration), but its just ridiculous!

Also I still can't work out how to damn zoom! I can right click zoom, but I was told earlier to hold it down to get more zoom- no luck there.

I don't think there is one - just one zoom level.

You can hold the fire button on the US rifle and that stops you immediately looking away for reloading - for spotting positions - but you'll zoom out when you release the fire button.

For mid/close range shots I usually 'try' and make a hit and if that's not good enough (if they have full health) then finish off with the handgun - gives you more rapid fire and usually one/two hits are enough.
 
I heard there will be some new ranks as well. I'm currrently approaching Sgt. Major now, and that'll be my last unlocks unless they bring in some new ranks.
 
yea but the next one is at 200000, so it makes sense the next one will be like 500000, they bought in these ranks cos of hte rampant stat padders who are top and play for 10 hours a day.

as for ssniping i always aim for the face definate kill shot. as tank gunners is tricky you've either got to time it for an exact headshot or fire two shots at them.
 
Can any one tell me what I'm doing wrong to get the basic helicopter badge...I understand I have to be in one for 15 mins (IAR). I have spent 4 rounds in one, in the same chopper whoring squad, as a pilot, gunner, and engineer - still no badge!?! All I can thing of is that we are winning too early!! I usually play on 32 maps with 100 tickets...
 
Look for maps with limit of 40 players playing on a 64 player map, usually have extremely high ticket counts, roughly 300. I play on these servers and the fun that can be had and the points to be made is really good :) plenty of time for the Chopper badge as each round lasts roughly 40-50mins if the teams are even.

So was talking in the pub about BF2 and I reckon there should be a specialized MEC weapon\class....the 'Suicide Bomber'. Yes slightly politically sensitive but how cool would that be...some crazy MEC running into your base, opening his shirt to show the explosives, shout some arabic and then BOOM!!!

Love it.

Love it.

EA and DICE would get sued for racism and "slight" stereotyping so can't and don't really want to see that happening.

To a point that already exists on both sides. Spawn as Spec Ops, stick some C4 on the front of a jeep/buggy, leg it round the map and just drive it head first into any other vehicle. Be prepared for abuse though ;)

and then you die most of the time or when you get out a clear distance before the enemies/vehicles the car youve hopped out of just stops dead and doesnt roll into them. so a lot of the time you die and get nowhere points wise. and it doesnt even help you get the explosives badge. it can be used to wind people up though :eek:
 
So many things i love in the game and so many i hate, some of the maps on the SF expansion pack are hard work.

then there are medics who dont revive, commanders that are crap, engineers that dont repair things, tk for vehicles, hit and runs, the list goes on. Oh well......

Grrrrr, anyone else get really fed up with those armoured APC things, they are far too effective IMO.

The MEC one is great for Anti infantry :) I love it. Its got some mean rate of fire.

come to 50k.

as for APC's the USMC LAV25 is the best by far, devastating if used correctly, against infantry its brilliant, but its got some real anti vehicle firepower in that missle, if your going up against a tank, your best bet is to keep moving and do a hit and run on it, fire your missile score a direct hit come around again when its laoded and fire again then use your gun it'll work, once you've mastered that have a go at doing hit and runs against columns of armour now thats a laugh, it'll probabbly get you accused of hacking tho.

I agree. I never do it myself because I hate it when I have it done on me.
