Get the sniper

Avoid the P90 like the plague. The default SMGs are better.

Im sure this ha been asked a million times already but does one need to have the special forces expansion in order to unlock these weapons?

Re: the 2 new weapons

Get the sniper. Or just play the PKM!

The PKM currently owns every weapon out there right now.

"No" i just asked a friend. Comes with the patch with 2 new maps.

Tried the P90, it's unimaginably sucky. I have no idea why anyone would want it. The SCAR-L has officially lost its spot as worst unlock.

The new sniper... No, I haven't tried it, but I've got like 90% accuracy with the M95 while crouched now. It's ridiculously accurate. Given that, I see no reason to get a new rifle.

The P90 not too bad but I haven't really used the other SMGs since the patch so they could be even better. 50 round magazines have got to be a big advantage though.

The L96A1 is just like the M24 aside from different sound effects and a different scope. It's really accurate and if you like sniping it allows you to get the most accuate sniper rifle no matter which team you are on.

The L96 is as good as the M24 even if the sound effect is godawful.

You could have a 1,000 round magazine and it'd still suck. The problem is low damage + low rate of fire + bad accuracy = almost no bullets hit before you die yourself.

It only does 19 damage, so be prepared to put 1-2-3-4-5 bullets into an unarmored enemy and still watch them run off or shoot you in the head.

The pistols are better - more damage (20), better accuracy, and an RoF as fast as you can click.

L96 is great. I like the thin crosshair and it is very quiet when it fires. The P90 is terrible and needs a RoF buff.

Re: the 2 new weapons

I actually like the P90 it gives the anti tank a little more range
the laser dot scope makes it easy to aim. but the doa is overall the best AT gun. So if you like anti tank get the P90
