    unlocking weapons, is it worth it?

    Support
    M249 SAW
    Type: Full Auto
    Damage: medium/high
    Accuracy: Medium/high
    UNLOCK
    PKM
    Type: full Auto
    Damage: High
    Accuracy: Medium
    Is it really worth it? You gain a steady high damage, but you get a steady medium accurasy... mind you I guess this is a close quarter gun

    Sniper
    M24
    Type: Bolt Action
    Damage: high
    Accuracy: very high (Bullsh|t)
    UNLOCK
    M95
    Type: Bolt Action
    Damage: Very high
    Accuracy: high
    You can now shoot through helicopter glass... not that a helicopter stays still long enough for you to really get a shot on the pilot

    Anti-Tank
    MP5
    Type: Full auto/semi auto
    Damage: low
    Accuracy: low/medium
    UNLOCK
    DAO-12
    Type: Semi auto
    Damage: High
    Accuracy: Low
    Great jump in damage, strickly a close quarter combat gun

    Assault
    M16A2
    Type: Burst/semi auto
    Damage: medium
    Accuracy: high
    UNLOCK
    G3
    Type: Full auto/semi auto
    Damage: high
    Accuracy: high
    You lose the grenade launcher from what I"m told... so what do you get instead?

    Engineer
    M11-87
    Type: Pump
    Damage: high
    Accuracy:low
    UNLOCK
    MK3A1
    Type: Full auto
    Damage: high
    Accuracy:low
    From pump to full ... so what?

    Medic
    M16A2
    Type: Burst/semi
    Damage: Medium
    Accuracy: high
    UNLOCK
    L85A1
    Type: Full auto/semi auto
    Damage: medium
    Accuracy: high
    From burst to full ... again.. so what?

    Special forces
    M4
    Type: Full auto/semi auto
    Damage: low/medium
    Accuracy: high
    UNLOCK
    G36C
    Type: Full auto/semi auto
    Damage: medium
    Accuracy: high
    Damage to a steady medium .. is it really worth it?

    These are the stats that show in the BFHQ. Now looking at these stats I feel that there is only 1 gun that is really worth the unlocking... the G3. But from what I"m told you lose the grenade launcher.

    My first gun I unlocked was the G36C cause I liked special forces and it was the kit I was using at the time.

    But looking at the stats.. it wasn't really worth it.

    PLEASE only those who have unlocked a weapon comment on if the gun is worth it despite the statistics.

    Unlocked weapons aren't suppose to be better. They are an alternative.

      Only un-lock I got was the sniper rifle. I love it, although I rarely play sniper I have shot down helicopter pilots with it. One time, bad guy just spawned and hopped in the chopper and I got him. Another case was a blackhawk was hanging over a flag capping, shot the pilot, nobody jumped in the driver seat, it crashed into a building and it gave me kills for everyone on the plane and a defend flag points.. I think if I was sniper I could do that more....

          The M95 was worth the unlock for me. I use it almost exclusively when im either MEC or CHINA because their snipers suck. Yes they are semi auto, but they do very little damage compared to the M95 and they both are questionable in the accuracy department. Plus, the M95 can shoot through the bullet proof glass on the choppers and planes to kill the pilots, in which the other sniper rifles cant. It does take some getting used to though.

          For my second unlock, I got the L85A1. At first, I thought it was the assault junkies sniper rifle. But then I found that I kept on getting dominated in head to head firefights. The M16 was MUCH better in the department. The way to use the L8 is to get on your belly, switch to single shot mode, and see if you can get some headshots. I mean, its not completly useless as an assualt rifle, but there are much better guns out there.

            I finally got the M95 when I reached SGT. It's nice to have the option, especially when you play MEC or China. I also like the how the zoom looks. I find it easier to get headshots. :p

              I've unlocked the g85 for medic, and found it to be the best gun of all. (might be because I rarely play anything else) but with single-shot its pretty accurate and auto is good at close quarters if your not a complete **** who aims for the feet. (your own)

              And meaby its because of my develishly good aim, or my develishly good luck

              Either way, I am trapped in an alternate reality and can't get out :cry:

                M24 is the most accurate gun ingame. You must REALLY suck, because the M24 is the last word in sniping. It's impossible to miss with this bad boy.

                PKM: Yes! If you play support a lot or a little, get it! It pwnz j00!!1

                M95: Yes! Accuracy is like that of the MEC sniper, but it packs a hella lotta punch.

                    unlocks aren't weapons made from gods hand, but they are better then the original weapons.

                    The sniper, well, I took tons of pilots out with the thing.

                    about the engineer unlock you say : From pump to full ... so what?

                    ever used the unlock ? this thing takes everybody down in less then one second, pump will cost you 1sec between each shot, the unlock gives you 7 shots in 2 sec

                    the spec ops unlock is super, I have used it, and the weapon rock on long and close distance, it's realy much better then the original weapon

                    the medic unlock, it isn't that good close fighting, but it's almost a dam sniping gun, in one shot burst it takes out snipers aiming at you and they are missing

                      Unlocks are definatly worth it. especially the pkm, it does tremendous amount of damage and can be very accurate if firing single shots.

                      The DOA is also far better then the mp5, cause basicly the MP5 is bad in all situations, the DOA is extremly good in closcombat but bad for long and medium range.

                      The G3 seems to me th overall least usefull unlock, I don't get why you think it is the most usefull. The gun basicly does only 2 more damage then the standard ak47, has a lesse singleshot accuracy then the m16, the only thing it does well is full auto, plus it has only a 20 round magazine and no grenade launcher.

                      The jackhammer is not worthwhile if you play mostly MEC, cause the standard is just as good

                        I unlocked the medic gun I was a little disapointed. People say it's such a great weapon but only thing good about it is accuracy and even that has a limit to how far you can shoot.

                            i think its worth it. when i unlocked my L8 it was way better than any other Rifle. and i tried out a G3 which im about ot unlock next and its much better than default.

                              The PKM flat out pwns over the other 2 support guns. As someone has said already these guns are an alternative rather than some UBERLEETPWNINGLOVEMACHINE unlock. Only had experience with the pkm as it is my unlock and can say it isn't just for close quarter battles you can take down infantry while they are some distance away.

                              High damage + Unlimited Ammo = Gotta be worth the unlock
