The F2000 allows for tapping at medium-long range; crosshair is ugly tough.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

I think it's pretty balance as it is. As you progress and get the perks and new weapons that cause more damage you realize that everything feels fine. But I admit, At times it feels like I'm using 10 bullets to kill someone. But just watch your range and where you are hitting them and you will learn to make the fast kill. Sometimes I will have someone in sight for a few seconds but I will wait until I am closer before engaging because at a distance the damage isn't as good and I don't want them to have that chance to take cover or attack me with a potentially more effective weapon.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

Noob tube is amazing. I can pretty much snipe with it. It's a large improvement over the noobtube in BF2. I will agree that in some situations, assault rifles take a while to drop other players. I've had moments where I had to empty almost 2/3 of a clip into someone to kill them. Other times they drop quick, it's a bit random. I'd say boost sniper rilfes a tad, boost assault rifles VERY SLIGHTLY and leave everything else as is. Oh, and NERF ENGINEER REPAIR! A tank with an engineer repairing it is almost unstoppable.

Disagree. There are counters. Grenades and mortar comes to mind. MAYBE make repair a bit slower.

I had the biggest counter tonight. I was on a roll killing lots of enemys, got out to repair and some nub jumped in and drove the tank right into the heart of the enemy spawn and died in 3 seconds.

some things never change.

You can take the moron out of BF2 but you can't take the BF2 out of the moron.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

The damage per bullet is starting to get to me. I can't seem to kill more then two people with one clip.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

You have to keep in mind that some people have body armor. If I see more than 2 people I take a second and plan my assualt for the best possible outcome. I'm starting to go for headshots with the mg's more often. It seems to be working so far. I can take down most guys pretty quickly. Aiming for center mass seems to take the longes (2-3 bursts) while aiming for the upper body usually takes 2 burst tops.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

sometimes it does good damage, sometimes, i unload a full clip and get killed first. is this the dreaded hit reg problems of BF past? or just lag?

... no M16 yet.

And yea, I think they need to up the accuracy and the damage just a tiny bit. Especially at close range...

You find yourself burst firing at people in the same room with you because its too innaccurate any other way, when people are 5-10 feet away thats when you should be able to go all ape**** and spray.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

You can spray at close range, if you compensate for the recoil.

Re: Gun Damage Poll

I did a quick pattern test with the PKM, sustained 20 round bursts.
Its not exactly a scientifc test, but based on this it looks like you should always bring up the sights

Standing, top pattern is iron sights, bottom is hip.



Crouched, top pattern is iron sights, bottom is hip.



Close range standing spray from the hip

Re: Gun Damage Poll

Take a look at these two videos. He fires 30 bullets, but there are only 15 impacts. I very much hope this is a bug and not by design:
