What happened to mortors in bf 2?

They were replaced by the mighty artillery strikes. Honestly, if there were mortars as well, the game would be a lagfest. Everyone and their mother would be using mortars to bomb the **** out of everything.

Why would you want mortars when you have M203s?

Mortars are A LOT more accurate over longer ranges than the M203. They also have a larger explosion radius.

Well okay sure, for the sake of discussion, which class would you have given the mortars to: engineers?

Re: Why no mortors in bf 2

I would have liked to see Mortars as a stationary emplacement....say down in a foxhole for taking out advancing infantry...say give them a very little damage, but have it over a large blast radious with a short range....


I still would have liked to see no stationary emplacements, but allow engineers to build/disasemble them, but allow each team only a certain ammount out at any given time...when one is destroyed it needs to be built again, and that takes time...say 30 seconds to completly build it...so that way the engineer would have to be defended while he built the emplacements. This would give the engeneer something else to do and more of a reason to tag along with a sqad.

Mortar: A mortar is a portable muzzleloading cannon that fires indirect shells at low velocities, short ranges, and high arcing ballistic trajectories (as a weapon or e.g. for firework). All of these attributes are in comparison with the mortar's larger sibling, artillery, which fires at high velocities, long ranges, and low arcs. Typically a modern mortar consists of a tube into which is dropped a mortar shell onto a firing pin resulting in the detonation of the propellant and the firing of the shell.

If it were up to me I would have a "Mortar" class. The only weapons they would have available to them would be a mortar(obviously), knife, pistol, and extra mortar shells.

That would be a very hardcore class :laugh:

OH and pungi sticks would be nice too!
