New Player needs unlock help.

[Zorgoth]

Greetings. I am very new to BF2. I have got my first 2 unlocks and picked the sniper weapons. I am almost to my next rank and will get 2 more unlocks. I have issues with lag in big fire fights but was going to pick up a few new more close and personal weapon unlocks anyways. I am looking for more "user" friendly weapons. I suck at aiming at all of the roll/dive/jumpers. I like to use support/sniper/AT/assult kits. So what weapons would be the best to unlock next?

MG36
PKM
SCAR
G36C
DAO-12
P90

Of those choices I'd go with the AT kit unlocks. The P90 kicks a$$.

At least the DAO. For Assault I like the second unlock. You get the Flash bang as well although I don't get much good use from it. The first Spec Ops unlock is also very nice.

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

Would the DAO-12 be good for street maps? Like Karkand?

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

we get 2 unlocks per rank up?

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

If you own Special Forces and have played at least 10 minutes and finished a round in it, yes. Otherwise one unlock per rank up.

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

I wonder if you did install it if you would get them for the times that you missed them at rank up?

The DAO-12 is the way to go. G36C lacks stopping power it takes almost the half clip to kill someone but it's accurate. But you'll get outgunned in almost every CQ battle you get into. The SCAR-L is ok but not that much of an improvement from the normal spec ops weapons it is about as accurate as them, has red dot scope, and is around as powerful as them. P90 is the same story as the G36C it sucks for direct close quarters confrontations against any class except maybe sniper or spec ops because spec ops weapons are about equal. The P90 does let you get some mid range ability. But as an AT you don't need it because if you're in a good squad the targets will all be killed by your buddies who have assault rifles. With your DAO-12 you'll be pretty unstoppable in close quarters atleast if they don't have any kind of shotguns. Only draw back is long reload time. You usually can kill 3 people with the 12 shots then use your pistol until you have time to reload.

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

Thank you all for your imput on this. I think I will for sure get the DAO-12 and just pick something else that looks fun for my second.

Please keep us informed cx32m4 if it works.

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

I'd go for the pkm for 2nd choice.

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

i ahte the pkm!! the MG-36 is a KILLER. awesome...ummm the p90 is alright. better then the SUB and the DAO-12 so yeah...umm never play assault really so dont know. the SNIPER kits are the best but i think you already got them. The G36C looks awesome, and i luv it. well in conclusion i think you should go with the MG-36 which is the last unlockl for support. Its powerful and when in CQ battles it mows them down

Re: New Player needs unlock help.

G36C all the way.
For the classes you have left Spec Ops needs the update to its standard gun honestly. Unless your playing Karkand, or are a tank hunter the G36C is the best class to update since Spec Ops is the more versatile on other maps then the listed.
You cant miss out on the 36C snipe and med range, unless you have the jump on a guy at a distance with a AT missle, your dead if you have a shotty and he has a 36C. IMO too its easier to kill a tank sneaking up and C4ing then AT'ing..but not on Kark...soo...
