Why can't I unlock the next sniper-rifle?

[DutchMillman]

Hey there,

I've already updated the sniper rifle from an M-24 to an M-95. Now I want to unlock te next sniper-rifle, but it doesn't apear in the unlock list. Why is that? Do I need to unlock all of the other weapons first?

Idk thats weird. Do you have Special Forces? Even though the other Sniper Rifle is in Euro Force I think I dont own Euro Force.

If you have SF it should be in the list, otherwise I have no clue.

No, I've only got BF2, not SF or anything else. But in BFHQ, the rifle is in the list. So you would expect it to be upgradeble.

PS: I've also already upgradeted spec-ops and medic, can't do an extra update on them either. Though again the list in BFHQ says that there is an update... But when the pop-up screen apears, they aren't available as an update.

you have to buy SF to get the sniper and the p90 for anti-tank, they were forgotten about in SF and later added to SF owners as vanilla unlocks only

you don't have to buy it

just find someone you trust and have them login as you and then join an SF server and get a point (doing anything)

i did it for a co-worker. just logged in as them - joined an SF server and killed a dude (then died twice - tee hee).

after a couple of hours he was able to see the new unlocks.

That is the answer. You need to have or play SF on your account for the next level of unlocks.

You dont have to buy SF, if u have a friend that owns it just play a few rounds with ur account on his SF and u will get the unlocks for the Sniper, F2000 and the P90

Correct; it's all about your account, not what's installed on your computer. If your account says you've played SF for a minute or so then you should be able to unlock the 2nd tier unlocks. The only exception would be if you are running a very old BF2 patch that doesn't include the weapons (in which case I expect they wouldn't show up in your BFHQ).

Thanks guys, I get the point. Chose the G-3 instead, so I'll be doing some infantry now...
The maps in SF any good, or is the only reason to buy it the extra weapon-unlocks?

Don't buy SF, Find someone you trust and let them go on your account for 20 minutes and then you get all the unlocks without paying

yea but unlocking it without the game EA will bust ur account for copywrite, your using things that are you have not bought
