[BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

Re: [BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

Who cares about the bullets? Honestly all I ever died from in the beta were M203's even if the enemy was 5 feet from me. They just need to be removed from games, or completely reworked, period.

:weo:

Re: [BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

Yeah, sure. And once that is removed you'll be killed by the repair tool, always. So let's remove it as well.
And while we are at it. Let's just remove everything that could be hurtful. I mean, this is Battlefield, but whatever.

Good argument.

My point is, in almost every game - BC2 included (and MW/MW2 being the shining examples) - M203's are just an easy excuse for a kill. They are implemented into games with real-world damage but, being an arcade game, they are not necessarily used "properly." So, like I said, either remove them (which would solve those issues) or rework them (i.e., they don't arm unless they travel for more than 15 feet, splash radius increases as it travels, etc. to discourage CQB use). Don't be absurd.

The real M203 doesn't arm the grenade until its traveled 15 feet for friendly fire safety. I think.

Thats what I learned in America's Army. *shrug*

Haha, well maybe that's where I got the number from then - it was just to serve as an example.

Re: [BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

It would make a lot of sense to make that a "rule." Either that or give it the power of a 500 ton bomb so you won't use it in CQB.

Too many bullets to kill.It ruins gameplay.

Higher learning curve turns away the worst of the noobs and make the ones who stick with it easier to kill. I like it.

Yeah... I think friendly fire will actually discourage its usage in much CQB.

This really depends. If you have to blast away at a static target for 15 rounds it just makes gameplay awkward, not harder...

I think it's a decent balance as it is. It does take more rounds to kill an enemy at full health, but not too many. BF2142 was almost too little (often just 3-4 clean shots to take someone out with the Baur)

Re: [BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

i like the 2142 way better, and i thought even that game had low damage. i just am not a fan of having to shoot a guy a lot to kill him, plus i think it adds to the realism.

do console fps games usually require a lot of bullets to kill?

No not really...

I have been doing a bit of NoobTubing with the Carl Gustav lately, and that is instant suicide if you don't keep a certain distance. It think it should work the same way with the GL. Either that or reduce the damage to 1/3 until it reaches its arming distance.

Re: [BUG]Automatic weapons seriously glitched

Lets hope the server options allow you to add Hardcore mode, but put Spotting/Minimap back into it. I love the bullet damage in that as compared to the core gameplay bullet damage.
