    Neither would a RPG-7V, but that's not the point is it. :p

      we talking rocket or weapon unlock :)

      It'd be nice to see an alternative to the DAO-12, while it pwns, having something with range would be nice for more open maps - maybe a UMP-45 or something...

      As far as sniper - AWP baby ! lol

        NO. NEVER.

        I can see it now.

        Noob1: STOP USING THE AWP H4CK3R!!!!!
        Noob2: AWPr.
        Noob4: BAN THE AWPs.

        Sorry, but I'll play CS:S for that. :laugh:

          Anti-air for AT.

          5x, 10x, 20x scope that can be used on any of the sniper rifles for the sniper.

            i still am waiting for proof that there will truly be two new unlocks. until then, this banter is merely speculation in my opinion.

              A UMP has about as much range as an MP5. It's still pistol calibered. -_-

              I highly doubt they're giving AT an assault/battle rifle anyhow, as the class is meant to be nerfed like that. Give them one and they're pretty much overpowered (a vest, an anti-tank weapon and an assault weapon's range? Forget assault, get this!).

              Anyhow, who cares, they're bumping up the SMG accuracy. To decent levels, I hope. :p

              As for my bets, I say an MSG-90 or a G3SG1 for sniper -- we already have a bolt-action unlock and the G3 is already ingame (only light modifications would be required to turn into one or the other). Maybe the said M82A1, since that's ingame (albeit it'll be surreal to have a semi-automatic .50 BMG sniper doing 33 DMG/r ...).

              As for AT -- I wouldn't really know. Since the trend is either shotguns or SMGs, I'm going with a P90 at that.

              So in short my bets are:
              - MSG-90/G3SG1/M82A1
              - P90

                  In theory there's no reason they couldn't have an unlock replace the rocket just like they replace GL with HG and smoke with flashbang in the assault unlocks. If they replace the rocket with an AA missile it wouldn't really be an AT kit any more though. Maybe a reduced-magazine rocket launcher (1 or 2 rounds) plus a couple of AT mines or AA missile (since AT currently has slot 5 unused)?

                    for at they should get duel uzis, hell yeah!
                    as for sniper, they suck anyway and no unlock will help that

                      I've always wanted to see a nearly Fully automattic Smoke Grenade Launcher. Say give it a 8 round clip, give it the rate of fire of a dao, and have it shoot standard assault class Smoke grenades. A clip from this weapon, and you could move a squad quite effectivly.

                        Uzis....umm no, this is a battlefield, not a stickup. Do you guys know how uselessly inaccuracte uzis really are? Fire one on full auto and if the guy was 50 yards away you might hit him twice....lol.

                        [rant]

                        And as a sniper I can tell you that you sir have no idea what you are talking about. On a 24/7 ghost town server I regularly play on I figure that my average score as a sniper is probably 15 kills and 5 deaths and thats with NO vehicle whoring....

                        If thats not covincing just yesterday I went 20 and 0 in a server not vehicle whoring, hacking, or going to some obscure corner of the map. I was sniping from the tower in ghost town, people were shooting at me, and I owned them. Now im not bragging at all, but thats far from sucking.

                        I hope I find you somewhere in a server so I can hit you once with my m95, switch to my pistol and one shot you. Again and again and again and again and then you can tell me after you have been pwned that snipers suck anyways and no unlock can help that....

                          That might not be what he meant. Another way to interpret it would be that most snipers don't help the team as much as they would if they were playing another kit. A lot of people seem to feel that way. Even if he did mean what you thought, there's a lot of truth in it. While you may kick ass with sniper, a lot of other snipers do suck (I've killed many of them at long ranges with pistols and AK's while they shot back at me and I'm not very good). Having a scoped rifle doesn't magically make you a great shot.

                            I would really love to see VSS Vintorerz, so I can do some urban sniping work.

                            Ideally, the VSS should be the unlock for the semi-auto sniper crowd. It would be automatic, has recoil of AK47 so auto mode isn't so practical, and has the damage of Ak47 and a 10 round clip, L85A1's zoom.

                            As for AT, P90 would be a possible choice, as well as Calico. We are looking at a large magnizine, low damage weapon here.

                                AT has a shotgun and SMG now. the next logical move is to give the AT a carbine or assault rifle.
                                I guess it will be something like a downgraded assault rifle. It wont be better than any AK variant. I am guessing it will be something with a damage of 30 or something very close.
