    i was thinking they should have included 2 unlock pistols that were different in terms of looks and performance to the defaults

    i was going to mention that little detail of wtf is the little green window sight on the takao its completely non-functional it doesnt have any kind of markings or anything for lining up front and rear sights its just this little green deal just sitting there making the gun look stupid

    not to mention that little device on the front of the gun that is all ghetto wrapped on there by some 2142 wrap. and then all of the PAC pistols are manufactured like this of course

      All PAC weapons are held together with rubber bands lol.

      You know what would've been cool? If the PAC pistol had an actual red dot sight on it.

        no having a red dot deal on the green window thing makes too much sense we cant have that in the game

          That pistol is the shiz; I'm not going to lie about that. But, I still have yet to figure out why gun designers would go backwards and design a revolver for use in 22nd Century combat. Think on that one.

          Yessir. The PAC pistol is accurate as all get out, especially if you're crouched or prone. I've picked off snipers with that thing, and it's excellent in a pinch. I actually prefer it to the EU revolver in terms of stopping power (it seems like you can fire it faster than the EU sidearm).

            What is the best map for handgun kills? One of these days, I have to try to get those badges.... Also, have a grand total of 5 knife kills, there must be some maps better than others for these types of kills.

            Thanks,
            R.

              Any conquest map should do. sneak up behind and aim for the head, firing quickly.

                I think the pistols are fine.

                Got me banned one night with the message "f*cking cheater" by accident. My mouse wheel has a tendency to "half click" when I change weapons, and sometimes will click over to the next weapon when I try to fire. Has gotten me killed many times. On this particular night, it happened at a really bad time. I was charging hallway 1 on the enemy titan after blowing up an enemy turret (they make such a nice smoke screen). I went to voss the two support in the hallway, and out comes my pistol. Rolling with the punches, I pistoled both of them, one of which had a shotgun "and was also an admin". Banzored....

                Probably the only 2 kills I have with the damn thing.

                  I love when you and your adversary both run out of ammo--while he bunny hops around, struggling to reload, I love whipping out my pistol and plugging him. Those are among my favorite kills.

                    Pistol are sniper's best friend [2nd to RDX and Mines]. Sometimes I missed the head and hit the body with Moretti or Park but the fellow is too close to shoot again [I need to unzoom back to 1x for scope] then I just whip out pistol and zoom and fire a few shots into him.

                    The EU pistol is amazingly powerful against knifers lol.

                      Yes, especially when you are so close it is easy to get shot in the head.:dead: I have a tendency to crouch when I knife because it takes too long to stand up if prone diving and you miss. Sometimes it means my demise because I lower my head right into the line of fire (most people aim for the chest).

                        I crouch when I knife too. I didn't find out the EU pistol powers being a sniper. [MY APM saves me]; I found out trying to knife snipers lol.

                        I sprint; strafe left and right then Crouch to knife around the stomach. Yes I got hit 3 times in the head with this thing and you are gone.

                        The bad thing about this pistol is the zoom; it's very hard to aim long range with it. Mid range if you are good; close range [why zoom?]. I usually use zoom when i hit the fool climbing ladders. Aim first and click away. You'll hit him 9/10 times.

                        The Takao sure is a bit weaker in damage; however; the smaller recoil and rate of fire beats it. Not to mention the accuracy at mid-range when zooming.

                        I personally love both pistols.

                        I think of them this way: Takao = Glock
                        Pierera = Nigh Hawk. Deagle as they call in CSS.

                        I have clip expansion and boy having 15 shots per clip/10 shots per clip saves you sometimes lol.

                          yeah that 10 and 15 shots you forget that it was a unlock but it really is useful

                            Pistols are great the way they are. I love the takoe since you can still get precise aim when unloading a clip. If they where to be better then they are now I would prolly have the double on k/d ratio I got with them.
