Re: handguns should really be more potent

I think the pistols are ok, you can still pretty much kill an enemy if your careful even if they have a voss. if you gave them more power it would take away from some of the assault rifles.

yeah i think im having deagle withdrawl srsly:dead:



well in real life i probably woudnt pull out a pistol i would probably bunnyhop around until i got a new mag in my voss LAR and then hip spray everything

lol


The biggest problem I see with comparing games to realism is this: in real life you wouldn't randomly "spawn" in an active battlefield and start shooting whomever you see first. You would stick to a squad and start from a safe position and then push forward. You wouldn't fire indiscriminately as it would risk your allies lives, which aren't renewable like they are in BF2142.

I think the pistols are great...
You're probably just too used to CoD pistols like the deagle. :p

I meant like the situation of needing to reload with tons of enemies around you. Or a least that's the way of thinking in real life, Field likes real life comparisons, doesn't he? Right Field? :p

If you need to pull out your pistol you've screwed up already.

not really...

When I'm playing a good round on a conquest map I usually run out of ammo at least once and sometimes get stuck without any Support guys around. Then I switch over to the pistol.

Re: handguns should really be more potent

I love the pistols, if i run out of ammo i always pull it out, an can usually surprise the enemy with a couple nice hits. I think its strong enough and i think they should keep it as is.

As for pistol serves, i got brig gen. and wanted a decay rank so i heard to play in pistol server but thats really lame, so i played one full round and got a score of over 500...my score was 100 points more then the next guy in the server and they were probably regulars there. Either way i got over 10,000 career points that week but didnt get a rank up...oh well

Re: handguns should really be more potent

I rarely use them.

Have you been spending too much time on pistol servers that made you want to change the handguns?

i went on 1 pistol server yesterday and i got banned after the second round. i only used a pistol so im not sure what the deal was

Re: handguns should really be more potent

They work fine for me, maybe you miss your PT111 in the game?

Re: handguns should really be more potent

Have you ever actually fired a pistol? I rather like the blend of arcade and realism that the pistols have in the BF series. Pistols in real life, aren't terribly accurate from my experience. Further, the faster you fire the less accurate they become. So no, i feel the hand guns are fine in this game.

[imported_Field]

does anyone else think that the handguns should be a bit more formidable in this game? like they either

do more damage
have larger magazines or
be less glitchy so they can be fired a little bit faster?
