We Want Pistols!!!!

[[MadMax]]

As a former Global Ops player and Counterstrike player I think it<s about time EA releases unlockable medium/high power and accuracy pistols un upcoming patches...... this would add so much to the gameplay...

don't you think guys? oh yeah and gals also...

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

pistols are pretty darn good now.. 3 or 4 shots and people are dead... 2 in the head and it's good bye....this isn't counterstrike...

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

So, what your saying is....that I can play as support and lay down 100 rounds, but since the weapons are not that accurate...I may not kill a guy...but 2 shots with a "High Powered" 9mil and he's dead??

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

I like the idea.

Means you could customize your loadout.

This is not Counterstrike. If you want Counterstrike, boot up STEAM, not Battlefield.

While I may not agree that someone should be able to take five or six shots to the upper torso from a 9mm and live, I would rather have that then a bunch of morons hopping around with pistols drawn popping off rounds (which is ALL this would "add" to the gameplay).

As it stands (and as applicable in real world combat situations) pistols are to be used only as a last line of defense after your primary weapon ammo has been spent. This is how it should remain.

Toesniping and pistol whipping are not the order of the day in Battlefield, thank you.

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

Yep two shots to the head and they are gone. Good Enough

Right now at 20 damage they are actually in line with quite a few of the SMG's P90, pp19, etc. Higher damage pistols would kinda unbalance everything.

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

And just so you know....in real war...only officers, and high ranking enlisted carry pistols....not lowly guys like me (sgt)

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

LoL don't admit your a counterstrike player...most bf players kill them on site for GP

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

unlockable pistols are cool, but they are good enough as they are. a good assualt player should not go through a full clip and have to resort to pistols to fight. the people who need pistols are snipers, but even snipers have them silenced, which is good enough

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

I like the idea...

Maybe a Deagle (DE) for range, and then something with more power for up-close combat - like a 6-shot 44 cal Raging Bull

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

well first let's say that i switched from counterstrike to Global ops when the bunnyhopping and cheats started to spread....

the thing is i dont see why a 1 kill/shot sniper is more acceptable than a 1 shot kill 9 or 10 mm to the head... a bullet is a bullet. Even if this is a war game and not terrorist/antiterrrorist game, I dont see why shooting a guy running with a pistol is more riduculous than being shot by a rocket launcher in a tight place... I remember having min distance in Global ops on those rockets at least....

this is only my point and i respect all of you guys' opinions but a burst mode or greater power pistol would just make me happy...

Re: We Want Pistols!!!!

I'd like to see second pistol for unlock, after all current ones are opened. Akimbo pistols were pretty nice equipment back Enemy Territory times. Two pistols would be better than shotgun when fighting medium range and I think those lousy MP5 and P90 could also be replaced with more useful tools. This would also be a good unlock because of using pistols to addressed some real thread agains automatic rifles, some skill is required.
