    Assault n Battery

    Here's a call out to all Assault fans - yo!

    And for those of you yet to be converted - a few tippettes. And pleeze - all them noobs with 'So what?' type comments - fuggeddaboudit.

    1. Learn how to use the grenade launcher.

    PROS: One hit kill. Good for softening up too. Takes out groups. Great range. Long accurate lobs over defensive positions.
    CONS: Doggarn slow reload. Only 4 nades. TK prone, or simply suicidal at short range (may be a con tho...!).

    So stick close to Support dudes, or just hang back at a supply crate and pop away. Also - great to use for hostiles in good position - just pop round the corner and let it go, reload back under cover.

    2. Great basic weps. Great G3.

    Ok - I just can't get the hang of the M16A1, but many favour it over my true love - the AK. As I've said before [Any MEC in Da House?], the AK rocks max when jumpin or being jumped, and has reasonable 1 shot accuracy for long range.

    Pretty often - after using the nades or emptying a clip at some bulletproof dude, the pistol is a fast draw and works a treat at all ranges.

    The G3 is the only wep which improves accuracy on full auto. However, you can snipe quite snipily with it on 1 shot using iron sights. As ever, the tap-tap-tap on left-mouse works wonders too. Frankly, when I'm miffed, I light me a cherootie and choose the G3 - the rackage is delicious.

    Haven't had much chance to use the last unlock (whassisname? F2000?), only when I've accidentally picked it up. However, I'm looking forward to a simpler nade-bullets combo.

    3. PRO: You've a bit of armour, but ain't luggin behind like Support.

    When nearing empty on nades and even when hit once I always call for Ammo or Medic. This gives my lovely team-mates time to give it up - and we all know how long that can be with unteamly mates....

    4. Assault reams.:p

    CON:
    You can't pad the points like certain classes. I think Spec Ops comes lower than Assault on that point.

    PRO: BUT - once you got the class nailed you're in the thick of every scrap, and rackage is goooood. This means you're helping your team and your sedentary cardio workout!:evil:

    Use all cover and shadow you can. Sprint only across open space - keep some sprint left, regardless. Never know when you need to hightail it.

    Well - that's about it. Assault works on the KISS principle, dunnit? And now I've flagged the Assault, I await the Battery of abuse most posts get....

    See you in hell!

            Grenade launchers suck IMHO. Too hard to aim at long range. They're really only good at medium range, and at that range you could just use the m16 anyways..

              Good info sheet there. You gotta with the F2000 just remember that where the bullets really hit is just above and to the left of the center of the F2000 crosshairs. I love the AK-101 too. My only problem is when zoomed and shooting on auto, they seem like blanks. Any tips?

              Cheers

                As an expert in Support, my most feared enemy is an Assault guy with a GL. I can start pumping them full of LMG rounds but never seem to kill them before they GL me. Since support guys are generally prone when firing, dodging a GL is impossible. It gets frustrating especially since they can shoot it at extremely close range, kill the enemy and walk away untouched.

                  Agreed. If I'm getting owned by a support guy I usually switch to assault

                    As Sam H Jackson put it (or was it Quentin T, or Elmore L?) - if u wanna kill every damn MF in the room, accept no substitute. AK47, that is.

                    Auto is ripe for CQB rippage, but go 1-shot when zoomed.

                    Fact is - just watch the news and see how the er... uneducated masses use it - pointed round the corner, letting rip a full clip. Meanwhile, their kids go hungry....

                    PS - Anyway - notice how just a squad of us keep the flame alight, less smarmy comments?

                      I found the love for the Assault class a long time ago. Still gotta give a shout out to my Spec Ops. M4A1 F*** the Free World.

                        Be like me and use the RPK/SAW/MG36 as a submachine gun. They work very well like that. You don't need to prone to fire those guns, unless it's long range.

                          Why not post a tipsheet on best use of Spec Ops? For myself - the popgun, crap assignments and no armour mean I spend my time watching the counter....

                          Let me know if u do. :p

                            M4's accurate as all hell.

                            AK-74U is a 3 shot kill.

                            And the Chinese QBZ-97 is sick nasty. Accurate and powerful.

                            C4 has always been fun. Whether it's annoying the IO players or throwing it on tanks, it's always a rush.

                            I like getting up on the building by Hotel(the one you can get to with a ladder, and throwing C4 down the alleyways. Or leaving them on walls(people don't expect them there), and blowing them(the alleyway that leads from hotel to Square for example, once Hotel is taken).

                            Getting on top of Hotel on Jalalabad, and throwing C4 on to the flag whenever a squad comes in to cap it. Fun fun fun.

                            Or, the best mission ever(be creative), taking the J-10 and landing it on the carrier, blowing the assets, and flying away.

                              So why not put up a Spec Ops tips post?

                              Looking forward to it.
