official Battlefield: Bad Company 2

[Singh400]

Not that I'm a fan of CQC CG of course, that is just silly "tactics". :D

*cough*you have 900+ kills with the CG*cough*

To put that into perspective I have 49 kills with the CG :D Never been so proud of myself!

@Singh400

And I will push it to 1000 just out of principle. :p But, ya, I really hated SMGs when I was leveling engineer class and used CG as my primary weapon (mostly within mid-long range though). iirc this was pre-R7 patch. Fun fact, no one said anything about it, no whining at all. Only after R7 people suddenly realized they hate being killed by it.

I now have seen the light regarding the awesomeness of SMGs though. :D

[Livin in a box]

It's not the dieing that bothers me, it's that people are so inept at the game that they have to resort to using the CG to kill some one who isn't even aware they are there from 20 feet away that bothers me.

If I get within 20 feet of some one and they aren't aware of me at the very least they're going to get pistol killed or 40mm shot gunned to the back of the head if not knifed.

I hate spawn campers the most- it's just pointless, they sit there shooting everybody who comes out of the sky. Give us a damn chance...

RPG's are what I get killed with most out of all the launchers- some random guy camping randomly fires it, one shot kill. Better than a sniper if you've got an ammo box.

Well, it does take some skill to kill infantry with the RPG from a range due to its slow speed, relatively small damage radius and substantial "bullet" drop.

They're usually level 45, but it's still annoying to say the least. Get a gun and kill with it.

My bull**** detector just broke. It takes no skill at all. I got like my 1st CG gold star in one map, and all I did was spam the CG. No. Skill. At. All.

[gkl]

Dude RPG is no CG. CG is easy, and while RPG is not as tough as AT4, it's more difficult to use than CG.

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

Unless you get a ridiculously long-range kill with the CG, it really doesn't require that much skill to use. Just aim and fire. More than 80% of the time, that would result in a kill. As for the RPG, I can't comment on that as I rarely use it.

I was playing the other day and I noticed that the Assault class could use C4 if you equip a shotgun. At first, I thought it was a glitch but then I realized you couldn't really put a 40mm grenade launcher on a shotgun.

[trag3dy]

Yeah, the only class that can't use c4 is medics, unless the medic picks up a kit that has c4 on it, that is.

Anyways, all explosives in this game require very little skill to use, claiming otherwise is very lol worthy. There are things they could do to make the use of any of the rocket launchers require more forethought but that's not something they want apparently, evidenced by the AT4 nerf. Which was the only launcher that required a bit of skill to use.

[gkl]

I'm not saying it takes actual skill to use. It just takes more skill to use the RPG than CG. ;)

@+trag3dy

engineers can't use c4 either

Addicted to this game.

Just unlocked the M16A2... it's a bloody beast!

it used to be a lot better :(

[ViperAFK]

I still can't believe of all things they nerfed one of the most balanced weapons in the game, the at4. Demize is a bloody moron. Its now completely pointless to use it over the rpg7 as it does the same damage, can't be used with tracer, and has less splash radius.

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

I don't think I've seen anyone use the M136 AT4 since... I can't even remember when. Oddly enough though, I racked up almost as much time with it as I did the CG (48m vs. 1h+). :/

[Singh400]

Three burst fire right? Prefer the AN-94 though.

[trag3dy]

I rediscovered the wonderful M416 today. The first time I've used it since I platinum stared it months ago and I had over 50 kills with it in the one round I used it in. To bad the damn game crashed right at the end of the round so I couldn't screen shot it. That's been happening more since the latest patch, my game crashing at round end that is. :angry:

Something else irritating has been happening since the patch as well. When using the M-24 rifle some times I'll scope in, and then how it would normally black out the entire screen but the scope view.. it gives me the ads like it would for any other non scoped weapon. It's kind of irritating and gotten me killed more than once. Anyone else experience this?

[Singh400]

Strange you should say that. That is all I have been using post-patch. That and the USAS, the SAIGA now sucks balls.

[gkl]

Why would SAIGA suck? Hardly anything was changed about it. And stats-wise it's pretty much identical to USAS :huh:

[ramsy66]

Any PC players want to get a squad together with me? I usually go medic, so if anyone needs one then add me on Steam and I'll be sure to keep everyone alive! My Steam name is ramsy66

[Singh400]

It has been nerfed mate. Doesn't pack the punch is used to. Switched to the USAS now, they didn't touch that.

[gkl]

I know but the only thing that was nerfed was long range damage when used with slugs. The nerf brought it in line with usas so damage-wise both guns are the same.

I've been dicking around with pump-actions + slugs and man that's a fun combination. Since my aim sucks, every kill feels like an achievement :D

[trag3dy]

I just had a 1000 point score combo, it was awesome. It was a combination of squad attack orders, kills, and spamming the stationary at4 at an mcom to kill it. In case anyone is wondering stationary at4's kill mcoms pretty fast, in like 6 hits or so. To bad I failed to screen shot it. :wacko: :laugh:

I guess I'll have to start running fraps every time I play.

Sweet, thanks! Downloading this now, despite everything i've heard about it i can't miss out on the beta for a game with medal of honor in the title.

[ramsy66]

Wow... Just played about 20 minutes and I'm already disliking it. It's like a watered down, worse version of Bad Company 2. I know it's unfinished, but from what I've played I don't think any amount of work can save this. There isn't really anything redeeming about it, absolutely no reason to choose this over Bad Company 2 on any occasion.
