If you dare, the NOOB tube reveal

Re: If you dare, the NOOB tube reveal

The main problem with a minimum arming distance is that is completely imbalances the game, gives the users of Special Forces unlocks an advantage of their teammates, and violates the core intention of the kits. Why?

Because the m16a2 isn't very good in CQC. With a minimum arming the distance, the USMC assault with have nothing but poor options when to comes to CQC. The single/triple shot of the m16a2 struggles against the AKs and other automatics wielded by opponents. With no superior CQC option, this change that makes assault as effective as a medic in infantry combat. That’s asinine and violates the intended roles for the kits. The only group that'll remain is those USMC players with the F2000, due to its fully automatic nature. This will compound cries that one needs Special Forces in order to remain competitive.

As such, it's a bad idea to support a minimum arming distance. In attempting to solve a problem that doesn't exist, it creates new ones.

The splashdamage to the one shooting should be 2x bigger and for the enemy 2x smaller. That will balance it, and will also get rid of the shooting at feet bunnyhoppers.

is this sauron the evil??

Wow, is that an awful analysis or what?

Firstly, this has nothing to do with Special Forces. Any team can access the G3, and the Chinese and MEC have AKs. Nevermind that anyone, with or without SF, can get the F2000 through a widely-whispered method.

The M16A2 is a fine weapon, even in CQC, provided that you can actually aim. Each round does 30 damage and at close quarters all 3 rounds from the burst are quite likely to hit, ensuring 90 damage on an unarmored opponent and a possible one-burst kill if you can hit them in the head with at least one projectile. I know that must sound fantastical to someone who has spent the majority of their CQC combat firing explosive grenades at their own feet and relying on splash damage for kills, but I promise, it's quite possible.

Re: If you dare, the NOOB tube reveal

Wots all this 'minimum arming distance' crap ??

Dont let them chippe away our noob rights. I like to noob, long or short, I dont give a monkey. I have no problem noobing you at point blank range, as long as I dont die - and I spot the nearby med pack.

OK, let me put in another way. I hate it, [bloody exploiters] when I try to knife someone and they see me with the knife yet still use their gun. OR, even worse, they wont stand still.
I think EA should patch that problem and stop people from moving or shooting if you got a knife out and are within 5 meters of them

While I still feel that a minimum range on the m203 turns Assault into a Medic with healing, you're absolutely right that the m16a2 isn't nearly as bad as I made it out to be. It is a good gun and I've seen it used with unbelievable effectiveness firsthand. I had no reason to say what I did about it and fully take it back. Sorry.

Are you joking? Just because your coming at someone with a knife doesn't mean he's going to hand you a free kill. You have to earn it man, if you come at me with a knife i'm gonna put everything i got into you. Besides don't bring a knife to a gun fight.

Re: If you dare, the NOOB tube reveal

Assault Rifle 2396 Kills, 22% accuracy, 58.64 hours used

Grenade Launcher 182 Kills, 50% accuracy, 3.85 hours used

Class Stats:

Assault 1216 Kills, 28.49 hours used...

So as assault I use the launcher 13% of the time and it accounts for 15% for my kills...

I tend to use it to worry vehicles as often as I fire it at people. You carry 5 grenades and 150 round of ammo AR ammo... I tend to have the weapon switched to assault rifle and switch to the launcher when I spot an opportunity to use it...
