umm i dont think this would be great idea IMO i mean the m16 is okay but has the grenadelaucher which is a powerful weapon where as the g3 is powerful but has nades where you cant get instant kills. so if you have powerful weapon plus powerful weapon the nade whoring would be terribly as they could kill you up close where the m16 is weak with g3 which would kill you instantly almost

Re: Solution to all the "G3 has no grenade launcher" whining
Yeah, a larger mag would be nicer for the G3. Otherwise I personally prefer having the hand nades over the (would-be) HK79. The G3 is a beast the way is, and is easily my favourite gun in this game despite the lack of the nade launcher.
But, if it did have a nade launcher, it wouldn't change the true die-hard n00b t00bers at all, really. They still wouldn't switch to their rifle until they ran out of nades. They'd just bunnyhop away waiting to reload the nade, so it's not like giving them a more powerful gun would change much.

Re: Solution to all the "G3 has no grenade launcher" whining
The HK79 was mentioned eons ago in these forums. I highly doubt they're going to redo the weapon model and add the underslung. I mean, if they wanted it to have a GL, they would've put it from the start. They bothered to research the GP-25 and the GP-30, they most likely came across the HK79 but didn't want to implement it. I doubt they're going to redo models, UV wrapping and textures.
The only thing I complain about the G3 is its appalling accuracy. It's horrid. It has a 0.5 minimal deviation. It means the first shot will deviate a minimum of 0.5 from it's path. For reference, the M4 has 0.15 minimal deviation, the M16 has 0.3 minimal deviation and is quite accuracy (enough, at least) and the AK-101 and 47 have 0.45 minimal deviation.
Now, take the AK-47 -- 38 DMG/round; 30 rounds; GP-25; 0.45 minimum deviation -- and compare it to the G3's stats -- 40 DMG/round; 20 rounds; no underslung launcher; 0.5 minimum deviation.
If you compare the G3 to all of the other rifles you'll see that, in theory and in practise it's worse. You lose ten rounds, gain a minimal damage quantity and the accuracy is horrible. Yes, those 0,05 make a difference, believe me. At longer distances you can waste an entire 20 round magazine trying to hit a target, while proned, even with a large pacing between shots.
About the grenade launcher -- it's useful, but I don't really miss it. I use assault for infantary, not vehicles and I avoid using the M203 unless I have to, because, well... the one shot one kill is rather cheap IMO.
The only reason I don't use the G3 in most cases is the accuracy, otherwise, in urban maps like Karkand, Mashtuur and Sharqi I'll use it and kill a few, thanks to it's rather large spread pattern.
I say boost the deviation to near AK-101 levels (say, 0.40 m. Deviation) and people will stop nagging about how they have so much to lose. BFHQ does say "High" accuracy after all.

Originally posted by jdrouWhat makes it "hella powerful"? It takes the same number of hits to kill as the AK47 which does have a GL. Better than M16A2 of course but that's not saying much.

Originally posted by SmilingRaccoonThe g3 does the most damage outta any gun in the game asides snipers, it may be close to the ak version but the g3 is much more powerful and accurate stats wise.
