UnNerf the GLs!

[RangerXML]

At this point this is really the only thing I can think of to make the assult class playable again. Removing the ability to shoot while jumping was good, it got rid of alot of bunny hopping tubing fools, Karkand turned into a LMG field for a short while, but even that was corrected. Now the original purpose to the GL was anti vehicle, the thing was so weakend after the patch that now it takes multi shoots to kill the drive where as before 1 shoot would take out a driver charging you. It also prevented alot of the humvee/vodnik raping thats been going lately on some servers. Alls I'm asking is that the GL is restord to its former glory, minus the arm time and bunny hopping of course. Increase the effected radius (and damage again. I think only the effected range was altered, but I'm not sure).

Atleast this now that EA is taking away our squad hopping.

Assault class if fine IMO, Grenade launcher still works great on vehicles like it supposed to. Next time make a poll maybe.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

Yeah, GL's dont have perfect acuraccy, but do they in real life? I mean, they're stil complete pwnage in the game you just cant bunnyhop. I dont get people these days, all they do is complain when they should be practicing and/or trying to learn how to use the fix to their advantage.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

Ya agreed with exho, with the old GL you could 1 shot kill people and they had no chance of defending themselves. Now, thats still possible but the GL is more of a weapon to your opponents health down so you can finish them off with 1 or 2 bursts...See what I mean? Just learn the new ways of war and adapt to them.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

I don't mind nerfing the GL so instakills aren't possible anymore but DICE introduced some major bugs when they patched the game. The GL never ricochets the way that you want it too, in fact I've been killed many times by my own grenade bouncing off a wall in an unintended manner. This behaviour is also present with regular hand grenades. Also, I think that launched grenades that come into contact with vehicles should explode on contact. Keep the nerf for infantry but actually make the weapon useful against vehicles.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

Hmmm, ill agree with you on the fact that the ricochet of the GL is off by somewhat, but I dont see that present with hand grenades.

About the vehicles, I dont understand what you want the GL to do? Take out a hummer in one shot? Is that even realisticly possible?

...Btw, this is a serious questions not being sarcastic.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

no, the noob tubing (which i hate) should be fixed because of the no bunny hopping and the arming distance

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

Works fine for me. Anything too close to kill with the grenade launcher, just shoot them. Long-range shots are pretty easy to pinpoint if you stop moving enough for the accuracy to settle. The assault class needs more rushing tools (i.e. more smoke), not the old shotgun GL.

Make the whole damn game to the classic BF2:evil:

Then you won't see assault anyway, except for Karkand. Every other map the copters will be running around insta-capping everything.

The current state of the GL is worse then the current state of hurricane katrina victims.

Re: UnNerf the GLs!

The Assault kit is disappearing and being replaced by PKM n00bs. At least this way we could divide and conquer the n00b infestation.

To tell the truth, I went over to assault just because no one plays it. They are still very valuable in the game and it might really help out if they did make some suble changes to the GL. Just don't announce them and make everyone go running back to it.

Realism isn't a factor in anything pertaining to BF2. Yet, for the record. Yes. An M203 will destory most light vehicles. It won't just blow them to all unholy hell, but the odds of the Drivers or Gunner, living through the blast with the ability for sustained combat is "OUTRAGEOUSLY" low.

Not so much from the fragments, but from the concussion. Fragments don't help their odds though.
