    Some thoughts on the lesser played classes

    Most people seem to play assault, medic, and spec ops, and the other classes are much less played.

    I've been practicing with a few of the lesser played ones, and some I like a good deal.

    Support is very good, even with the stock gun. You can really lay down some good fire, and it is very accurate. Plus, you can a lot of points for ammo.

    The Sniper is the one I most disliked, because I like to get into the action- but after trying it for a while, it is not so bad. You won't get as many kills as an assault, but if you play smart your kill/death ratio will be pretty good.

    anti-tank I am still on the fence about. The gun is not very accurate and the rocket takes practice in order to take down tanks fast.

    Actually the support gun is very very inaccurate but yes it does kick ass but you must go prone to hit anything even close up.

    As for the sniper you can get far far more kills than as assault if your good. In fact you can find yourself easily getting 25 - 30 kills with it without dying once on the right map if the other team aren't that good.

        Recently I've gone into playing full-time Support class since you rarely find 24/7 Support players on most servers - even on the lesser-played maps. Aside from that, I've had the most fun with Engineers, but the Jackhammer isn't worth unlocking. I'll probably snatch the PKM. There are always snipers on teams, but their effectiveness is limited.

            i was a full time assault, then i became a full time spec ops, now im getting into the medic and suppoprt sides! I like being support, i like the guns, spary and you'll get the kill eventually! Most people will try and run and bunny hop because the the big clip size and fast rate of fire, thats what i like! Too many times i've emptied my round and start reloading, then die!

              Bunny hop as support? Man, bunny hops are for engineers with pump guns only...

              Prone, aim spray. Eventually you will kill him.

                The M95 devistates on a carrier, talk about feeding the fish. But it seems the medic makes a better overall sniper . Engineer is best for tanks and APCs. Support guys are just down right nessary wish more ppl played that.

                  I was the same way man. First I was all about the assault, I even got the G3 as my first unlock, which I still like despite it not having a GL on it. Then I started doing alot of Spec Ops cause I unlocked the G36C, which in my opinion is the most accurate with just single shot. And now that I am about 3400 pts away from my next rank I am practicing with support and plan to get the PKM, I love the way it sounds. Support is a sweet class and if you place your ammo packs correctly you can get a good amount of points. Maybe not as high as a good medic, but still up there in the 70-100 area.

                    I love a good snipe it suits me perfectly being away from the action taking a few careful shots rather then emptying full clips at 10 ft away.

                      I disagree, my best score whilst playing support is 226 points in one round!

                        I am playing Support class most of the time, switching to Anti tank whenever is neccesary and using other classes when I have to. Playing support is a lot of fun. As people mentioned many times support gun are very innacurate and so many times I was owned by a guy who survived full 40 bullet burst It is very unfortunate that support guns are not more accurate on longer distances - that is after all job of support, to keep enemy down until Assault, SpecOps can come closer and engage enemy in close combat. But if you are lucky PKM can own whole enemy squads.

                        Anti tank I played a lot and it is very good class. Secondary weapon (submachine gun) is crappy but rockets can own tanks, APCs and infantry once you learn how to guide rockets. And if you have support guy next to you ...

                        Snipers are useful in some situations. I didn't play it a lot but yesterday we were defending a base and one enemy sniper was nigtmare, killing our guys - I was forced to switch to sniper kit and enemy sniper was dead in no time. So snipers can be useful if deployed properly.

                          i spend a decent amount of time learnin the engr kit on karkand. its fun to be up close as a USMC engr with that pump action shotty. it really does them in perty good. ill do this and anti tank, or support, usually until i get a message like i did last night, "OMG COTIZI U REALLY SUXOR FOR A SARGENT!!!! I PWN JOO!!!" because i enjoy playing as classes that dont get the most amount of points in a round.(aka engr)........then i go back to assault and noob whore until then round ends and he has 20 points and i have 120. man i hate 12 year old kids.
