Title: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 09, 2013, 01:40:52 pm 1. AEK-971 - 1,971 kills, 15.46% accuracy
2. M416 - 1,909 kills, 14.71% accuracy 3. AUG A3 - 1,329 kills, 16.8% accuracy 4. M4A1 - 1,056 kills, 14.65% accuracy 5. SCAR-L - 957 kills, 17.26% accuracy I'm not too proud of the AEK or M416 because I don't like to use the popular guns too much. I feel that everyone runs around with the AEK / M16 / M416 thinking it will make them a good player but it's not really the case. I'm more proud of the AUG and the SCAR-L. I started using those guys after the patch that fixed the input lag and I really love them. Also, I feel my accuracy with the other three guns could be much better but I really had a hard time overcoming the input lag until a few months ago when they finally fixed it. I also want to replace the AEK and M416 with other guns. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on February 11, 2013, 01:59:05 am I only use 5 weapons anyway:
M240B 2200 Kills; 7% accuracy LMAO! M1911 1271 Kills; 21% accuracy PP2000 849 kills; 13% accuracy 870 762 kills; 31% accuracy SKS 605 kills; 17% accuray As for my thoughts, I really don't like any of the weapons. I loose every firefight and can't control the recoil on any weapon. My sensitivity is all the way down. I actually really hated this game until someone suggested the SKS about a year ago. I used it for awhile but really not much in the last 10 months or so. In the summer, I started using the M1911 almost exclusively since I like the Close quarter maps and the pistol gave me the best chance at kills. The 870 was the only not LMG I used for the first month of the game; I don't use it anymore. Buckshot only. The PP2k; I wish. I actually can control this weapon pretty well, it just doesn't have the rate of fire or feel that it had for me in BC2. It is still my go to weapon if I'm going to run around. M240B is now my bread and butter. With the bipod propped on something there is really no recoil and I noob it up with the extra mag so I can fire 200 rounds, so at 7%, that means I'll hit something 14 times. Sweet! I actually enjoy playing this way. As mentioned before, I loose pretty much every firefight so the more I move, the more I die. In reality, I like to stay still, swivel, suppress and kill in bunches. I actually go through spurts where I see nobody and get no kills. Then, 10 kills in two minues, then no kills for 3 minutes. The game has an ebb and flow to it. Sit still long enough and the tide comes back in. One last thought. I really prefer semi-auto weapons for their combination of power and accuracy. That is what I liked about the SKS. But ammo is hard to come by and I like to use c4. So I wish there was a semi auto for all-kits. Adjusting rate of fire to burst or single shot is a joke when the power per shot is the same. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 11, 2013, 03:31:43 am 870MCS - 562 kills 70.88%
SV98 - 54 kills 34.57% SCAR-H - 53 kills 14.51% MP443 - 26.95% M39 EMR 34% Just figured out how to get my spas >:D , only reason the scar-h is up there was to do the 50/50 assignment Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: June on February 11, 2013, 05:17:09 am 1. Knife - It's fun to use
2. Pistol - It's the only thing that has low enough recoil that I can shoot two consecutive shots. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 11, 2013, 08:52:16 am @ GH: I actually feel this is the best gunplay of any FPS shooter I've played because of that recoil. I find it really addicting trying to compensate for it. I know I've said it before but you really have to know how each and every gun handles and from there you establish how much you have to pull down on the right analog stick to compensate for the recoil and how many rounds you can put down for each burst at different distances. You do have to get used to pulling down on that analog stick though. Without that you can't get better and it's not something we did in BC2 so it's new for this game.
I like the slower firing weapons like the SCAR-L because it's much easier to compensate. Guns with faster firing rates usually have violent kick. SCAR-H - 53 kills 14.51% Just figured out how to get my spas >:D , only reason the scar-h is up there was to do the 50/50 assignment Yeah I think it's a trade off between the SPAS and the 870. One fires faster but the other packs a harder punch. The SCAR-H I think is a great long range gun. Only bad thing is that it's standard mag is only 20 rounds I think. 1. Knife - It's fun to use Yeah I love using the knife but it takes too long to make those brutal kills. You can't go on a spree quite like you could in BC2. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: June on February 11, 2013, 04:57:20 pm Lol... yeah, I do miss our knife wars. :-[

You just don't know how to die! lol she has like 8 or 9 of mine. Haha... I remember most of them, too. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 12, 2013, 03:17:25 pm 1. Mtar: 16,501 kills 14.62% accuracy
2. Pkp pecheneg: 3,937 kills 8.31% accuracy (lol) 3. SKS: 3,315 kills 22.39% accuracy 4. G53: 3,079 kills 15.54% accuracy 5. G36C: 1,909 kills 15.50% accuracy I got bored with the game after finishing everything, so i decided to try to be in the top five with the mtar cuz i really liked it. I got to 9th and realized I'm not a good enough try hard...lol. I think I'm around 30th now in the world. Other than that, I'm a little embarrassed by the pkp accuracy, but most peoples accuracy on that gun is less than 10%. I don't even remember using the G53 or the G36C that much... Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 13, 2013, 10:45:35 am I think the MTAR is more of a short range version so I don't use it much or even the engineer class for that matter. I've adopted a more ranged playstyle for this game, especially since the patch. The G53 is excellent though.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 13, 2013, 02:50:26 pm One of my favorite things to do actually is to pick people off from a distance, lol. Nothings better than out sniping a sniper with a short-mid range gun. There's not much recoil as is, but switch out to single fire and you're good to go.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on February 13, 2013, 06:28:39 pm funny you guys talk about picking off snipers. With my noob set up (bipod, M240, extra mag), I take snipers out all the time, even though I usually use the holographic scope. With those rifle scopes there is a nice shiny spot to shoot at. So despite being far away, I'm bound to kill them with 200 rounds as long as they don't move.
Nice job on the MTAR SBC. Remember when getting 1000 kills was a big deal in BC2? Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 13, 2013, 06:57:03 pm Hmmm, that's something to think about.
I think getting 1,000 kills in BC2 was a more lengthy ordeal since everyone had a lot more health. Think about how many kills you've gotten off of people that ran around a corner in a group and didn't even know you were there. I think the added health in BC2 meant you had to work harder to get one kill and had to be more crafty to get the rest, otherwise they'd gang up on you and you would end up with only one kill. Plus a lot of the new blood that came in with BF3 seem to be quite stupid. Sometimes you can farm several kills like it's nothing. All in all, which would you prefer? I haven't made my mind up yet. Taking off my nostalgia goggles, I'd have to say that BC2 was a lot more frustrating for me but at the same time, I got a lot more satisfaction there than I've ever gotten from BF3. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on February 13, 2013, 07:11:49 pm I prefer BC2. I just had so much more fun with it. I like the gameplay and the maps way more. I like the graphics too. I just don't like the "haze" that accompanies most maps in BF3. And for whatever reason, I really haven't made a connection with it. I don't have a favorite gun, favorite map or favorite thing to do. Mostly I just get on to kill some time, relax and yes I really want to try to find that "ah-ha" moment.
I had a bigger learning curve in BC2, being my first Ps3 game ever. Again, the overall gameplay was better IMO. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 13, 2013, 09:55:52 pm Yeah the color filters and the sun glint really **** me off. However, you'd be surprised to see what the game looks like underneath all those post processing effects. It looks bright and very much like BC2 except with better models and things like that. I'll try and find a pic.

The armored kill maps are awful though... I agree bc2 was much more satisfying, but note that I'm used to bf3 i don't miss it much.
Have you guys experienced this... When i go back to bc2 for a night, my guy seems to run crooked...i don't know what that's about Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 13, 2013, 11:18:14 pm Drunk? Or maybe its the person holding the controls :P

Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 14, 2013, 09:13:54 am June, I swear, I'm going to turn you into an absolute beast. That is now my absolute goal in life. If I die a poor bum under a bridge I'll will feel accomplished if I get your k/d up to 4.0 and an accuracy of 20%.

It's easy, put the bipod on your favorite LMG along with Extra mag, suppression team perk, go prone near a heavy traffic area and wait. They will.come.Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 14, 2013, 08:04:58 pm I have to say, whenever I hear someone firing away at their big ammo LMG without pause, it makes me put my war face on and charge in.

The armored kill maps are awful though... I agree bc2 was much more satisfying, but note that I'm used to bf3 i don't miss it much. Have you guys experienced this... When i go back to bc2 for a night, my guy seems to run crooked...i don't know what that's about The characters in BC2 run straight and have to change their whole body position to run at a different angle. In BF3 you can run in the same direction and be able to look to the side slightly because there is 8 way directional movement. BC2's issue was that they copy / pasted the controls from the PC where you run straight and turn in the direction you want really fast with the mouse. They don't need the added movement the controller adds. The strafing to the sides gives it a "crooked" feeling I guess. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 15, 2013, 04:12:14 pm I never noticed when i played bc2 on a regular basis... I guess i just use the controller differently now that i play bf3 more
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 16, 2013, 11:56:12 pm The M98 is now my number one gun! 8) I just unlocked it two games ago and I already have 65 kills and 50% accuracy!
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 17, 2013, 03:08:03 pm That's good and all but you have 4 sniper rifles in your top 5 weapons so I'm guessing TDM is the only mode you play. If you're playing other game types then sniping is not helping your team much at all. I suggest pickup up some of the other kits to learn their strengths and to see which guns you like.
Remember that there's a huge gun variety in this game and most of them are situational so you're going to have to choose based on the map layout and the way you happen to be playing. Also keep in mind that one style of playing isn't always going to get you the best results. You should analyze the dynamics of every round your in and then choose a style that will help your team out the most. I suggest the SCAR-L because it's a great long range, low recoil weapon. It seems that you prefer playing from a distance so that gun might help you start branching out a little bit more. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 17, 2013, 03:57:56 pm How doesn't it help my team? :o It's great for defending on rush and conquest..
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 17, 2013, 04:16:35 pm Unless you play as a party/squad, most snipers arent helpful for team effort.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 17, 2013, 04:33:22 pm Explain
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 17, 2013, 05:35:55 pm He's right. Firstly, the recon was weakened a lot in this game so getting fast kills without a headshot is impossible. The VAST majority of people are not able to do this consistently, especially with the bolt action rifles even if they claim otherwise.
Secondly, most recons think that it's best for them to hang back 2 miles away and "defend" an objective but that's a load of crap. You run into the above mentioned problem but then you also have issues like people acutally firing back at you or hiding behind walls. What then? You either die and you weren't running with your squad so no revive. That or you suddenly have no targets to hit becase they've all taken cover and now you're useless. Lastly, while you might be able to occasionally cover an objective, how much can you honestly say you've contributed to the team even getting to that position? It's very doubtful you've suppressed the entire other team on your own so while your squad/team moved up and armed something, you literally did nothing to contribute to that. Even if you do kill someone, you are much less effective at it than your squadmates that are in the immediate vecinity. The entire, "I contribute by covering the team/objective from afar" theory is false. If you want to use a sniper rifle and be a contributing member then your best bet is to either use a semi auto with a small scope (4x, red dot, kobra) or a PDW and run with your squad. Try and be the one that slips behind enemy lines and plants a beacon where you can all spawn. Use either a tugs or MAV to get a readout of enemy positions nearby. This is what a very good recon does and it's a huge contribution to your squad and team. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 17, 2013, 05:51:55 pm I feel that I'm highly effective with a bolt action and I also don't sit back 2 miles from the objective :-\
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 17, 2013, 06:21:25 pm When I sniped in mwr I didnt play objective, but the shots I missed i'd call out the exact location entry the enemy would take (Slean could hold a hq by himself with my spotting). I knew if he needed help i'd switch classes to help take objectives, most of the time all he needed was just to know what enterance to defend.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 17, 2013, 08:08:53 pm Well I'm not going to sit here and claim bullshyte on something I haven't observed first hand, but I'm not exactly new in the series either. I know how the community sees it as uneffective and have observed why it's considered as such by even the highest tiers in the series.
Two of the sites members are actually part of a very competent BF3 clan (Crzy and SBC) and I'm sure they'll agree with pretty everything I have said. In fact, Crzy already has. We don't really say it for no reason. I'm not really trying to criticize either. If you guys want to use those guns, by all means do so. It's just a game. I'm just trying to give you guys hints at how to do better here since I know you both play CoD which is an arena shooter. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 17, 2013, 08:35:29 pm Well I'm going to do what I'm best at... I don't find it fun running around with a machine gun.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: CitizenSoldier3 on February 17, 2013, 09:09:13 pm I do better with pistols/shotguns/sniping I dont know why :-\
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 18, 2013, 03:06:59 pm LT is right, Recon players that choose bolt actions are generally less effective than the players that choose Semi-Autos, Shotguns, or PDWs. IMO the only time it's ok to choose a bolt action is when you have a team spawn locked and they refuse to push out to cap flags. Yes I understand you guys like sniping, but if you're not actively capping flags in Conquest, then you're hurting your team.
Flags cap much faster with multiple teammates on them, just like Domination in CoD. And since you need to Neutralize AND Capture an enemy flag, that leaves a huge window for enemy reinforcements to show up. :/ So when you're on the flag you're at least a spawn point for a squadmate to help cap the flags faster. When snipers are way out in the middle of no where with a 12x Scope, that means they're no where near a flag so it takes even longer for a squadmate to spawn on them and run to a flag. Conquest is all about controlling more than 51% of the flags on the map that way you can Ticket Bleed the enemy which drains their ticket count by 1-2 tickets every second. Can't speak for Rush because I don't play it. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 18, 2013, 03:17:05 pm On-topic:
1. A-91: 706 kills, Accuracy 16.1% 2. L85A2: 689, Accuracy 16.57% 3.Scar-H: 666, Accuracy 16.58% 4.UMP-45: 634, Accuracy 17.18% 5.M416: 624, Accuracy 15.25% How I feel about them: **** you Dice. I had all of my guns hovering at 500 and then they release challenges for 100-150 kills and random amounts of headshots for challenges. Me being the challenge **** that I am, I did them all and it changed my entire top 5 lol. I have 53 weapons over 300 kills, and 33 over 500 so I could use any of these for a day and have it in my top 5.

Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Autumn1194 on February 18, 2013, 06:32:18 pm 500 feet is pretty close

Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Red Fatality on February 18, 2013, 06:43:19 pm yards is what i should have used but then again can't judge distance on a video games lets just say they where hella far from the objectives
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 18, 2013, 06:47:00 pm Recons are generally useless... Using a beacon to get out of a spawn trap is helpful, but if half the team want sitting there trying to snipe you wouldn't be spawn trapped. I use the sks and to pretty well with it, that's with iron sights or a red dot.
As a side note, i wouldn't knock anyone for using whatever they wanted bc the way i see it...they spent money on the game to have fun...if not moving, not scoring, and not getting kills is fun, then by all means Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Red Fatality on February 18, 2013, 06:52:39 pm On bc2 i don't play this one but on that game i remember having a blast camp sniping just racking up kills going like 30-5 but if your serious about wining bolts are useless imo. Those motion balls were crucial on that game if i used recon i used a semi sniper with a dot sight and ran around like it was a assault rifle just spamming the motion balls on the objective.

Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 18, 2013, 10:06:05 pm BC2 had motion balls and mortars though...so I could understand a wookie wanting to stay back and rain down mortars. BF3 doesn't have either and since BF3 maps are larger than BC2 maps, you notice the distances a lot more. Nothing pisses me off more than having all squadmates die, other than some wookie way out doing nothing, and we lose all flags.
Then when you run the 900 yards to the objective you get killed as soon as you start capping a flag. >.> Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 19, 2013, 01:37:33 pm BC2 had motion balls and mortars though...so I could understand a wookie wanting to stay back and rain down mortars.

You get a large selection of close quarters weapons (more than BC2 all-kit selection) and still have the ability to put small sights on large rifles. The biggest argument for my point would be the spawn beacon and how it relates to the squad. You literally can't use the beacon properly unless you run into the battle and place it in a strategic position. Not only that but they also provided the tugs which is a faster deploying sensor that the mav. You can bathe in points by dropping a sensor in the middle of a crowded area compared to the 100 points you'll get occasionally by using the 8x scope from 1000 meters. it just makes sense to be up in the fight. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Termin8or on February 19, 2013, 01:46:48 pm Just a comment as I don't play this game....but snipers can be effective is certain situations for sure. Maybe not all of the game modes are geared for snipers, but I'm sure some would benefit.
Kind of like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYkldvQH9Ig (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYkldvQH9Ig) Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 19, 2013, 02:50:23 pm LT is right about snipers being effective up close... The tugs helps out, however on maps with multiple floors its not as effective

As said before, the LMG's are the most effective weapons in the game. I usually run and gun with PSO 4x and suppressor while capping flags and mortaring the other spawn points. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on February 19, 2013, 08:31:56 pm Just kidding ^^^^^^^^^^
Recon really is useless unless you're running with the team and dropping spawn beacons. As for the TUGS v. MAV, I try, try to get the MAV in a good location that can't be reached by foot and harder to shoot. The game really is different than BC2. I stopped playing most modes in both BC2 and BF3 other than TDM because most people don't play as a squad and when your run into those who do, it's usually not even close. I give props to LT for playing with me. The other day in a TDM, it was 500 tickets, argh! anyway he was the only positive player on our team and he had about 100 of our 350 kills. We got slaughtered and he had the best score in the game. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 19, 2013, 08:47:04 pm Oh dammit GH, I was about to go apeshit on you for disagreeing lol. But you deserve as many props as anyone. I know the game isn't as easy to play for you as BC2 but you still make damn sure and play your role the best way you can, even if that means you don't get the most kills. That's always more valuable than someone that only plays for one thing like kills and that's all.
Term, my views haven't changed. I think SBC meant that Recons are useful up close. In this game the terms Sniper and Recon are sometimes interchanged the reason being that the Recon Class uses sniper rifles. As for the sniper rifles themselves, my stance is that the bolt actions are pretty much useless, especially with high powered scopes. The Semi autos are more effective but more so if used with a close quarters scope. The best thing for Recons is probably using the PDW's that are available and running with your squad. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 20, 2013, 01:58:43 am Speaking of bolt-actions, the JNG is pretty beast if you slap a red dot and rush with the Straight Pull Bolt on. Aim to the neck and it almost always insta-kills in one shot. If not, then you quickly swap to a good pistol and you're set. I've only tried this on Caspian running between B and C since there's rocky cover, if things get too hectic I just jump off the cliffs for cover.
Probably the only time I've lead a server using a Bolt Action, had around 30 kills and 10k points from capping. It was against a competent team that PTFO'd too. Was proud of that win. :D Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 20, 2013, 08:37:42 am I actually haven't tried the JNG but I'll check it out.
What pistol do you use when you run a sniper rifle? I can't put down the .44 magnum. I know a lot of people like to use the 93R or the G18 and it's not that I'm trying to knock it or seem like I'm some kind of badass, but I don't subscribe to the idea of spray until you drown your enemy in a sea of bullets. I can't say everyone thinks that way but when I see a guy using the SKS and 93r that's the impression I get sometimes. I'd like to think that one or two accurate shots from the .44 helps sharpen your skills more than an entire magazine of 93r spray. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on February 20, 2013, 03:08:54 pm I too like the magnum... was given the suggestion to use rapid fire pistol with a bolt action and a slower pistol with a gun that has a high rate of fire. Its worked for me so far. I use either the magnum or m1911
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 21, 2013, 12:36:03 pm Ehh I've never liked the Magnum much TBH...my muscle memory is built in to just rapid fire with the trigger finger so those 6 shots go fast. I never slow down to aim the shot which usually gets me killed more often than not since I have to stop and reload in the middle of the gun fight.
Personally I love the MP443 since it has an 18 round mag or something high like that...great for the trigger finger and mowing down more than 2 enemies. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 21, 2013, 06:41:42 pm THEN HOW THE **** DO YOU HAVE LIKE 17% OVERALL ACCURACY! :oO
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Crzy on February 21, 2013, 07:24:08 pm I figured that was average. :o In most shooters, I hover around the 15-19% accuracy range. I aim but I speed it up if I know the enemy also sees me. Would rather readjust after recoil/flinch sets in but with the Magnum I never have time to do that since it only has 6 shots.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 21, 2013, 07:43:10 pm My overall is only at 16.2%. I kind of want to reset my stats to see how it would be now after the lag input fix. Like the SCAR L I started using after the patch and it's almost at 18% accuracy. Now Im curious.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Λυтυмη on February 21, 2013, 07:56:57 pm Is 18% good for battlefield?
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on February 21, 2013, 08:00:48 pm For automatics in this game I'd say it's at least decent. There is a lot of recoil in the game so performance can vary a lot, especially at long range.

I hate all of those guns czee, lol kh2002 is 3rb only...i put in hours in the coop just to Get it and i hate it
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Mista Czee on May 05, 2013, 06:16:37 pm Yea I loved the KH at first till I picked up the AN94. The KH just feels like it isn't very accurate. Kinda like I feel like I just spray it. The AN94 on the other hand is very accurate. You can feel your bullets landing when you fire it.
Out of all the guns in my top 5 I gotta say the 40mm Buck is the best. Not many people can aim with it in a quick fire situation. But it is by far one of the best secondary in BF3. I guess using the 40mm Shot Gun in BFBC2 helped me out a bit. O0 Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: the KR3AT3R on May 05, 2013, 06:50:00 pm I don't have all of the guns cause I don't care to complete assignments. My go to gun is the PDW-R, and I do ok with it.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Supes on May 05, 2013, 11:09:37 pm I rarely use a secondary weapon lol
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Mista Czee on May 07, 2013, 08:20:38 pm Its really handy when playing Assault. Like when you fire at a bunch of guys and run out of ammo instead of switch to my sidearm I flip the Buck out. Ive gotten tripple kills and tons of double kills with it.
Its basically a beast if you can figure out how to aim it. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on July 01, 2013, 08:43:27 pm XBOW! LOL, my number 5 weapon. over 700 kills, but, also, over 30 hours of play with it.
Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Laughing Turd on July 03, 2013, 03:23:56 pm I saw you using that with the scan bolt yesterday, right? I know one of the dudes shot my mav when I was camping that building all match long and I was wondering how the **** guys were still showing up all over my map.
That's some good **** dude. GGs. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on July 04, 2013, 11:24:59 am yep. I use all 3 types regularly. Usually the explosive just in the beginning to knock out some walls, then I try to find a place to camp and use which ever bolt would help out the most.
Some games are more frustrating than others though. Some games I get tons of hits and kill assists, others, it seems nothing is registering. The games when I'm close to equal in k/d then the bolts are working. If its 4 kills and 20 deaths, then the bolts aren't registering. BTW, got my 8th star with it last night. Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Red Fatality on July 18, 2013, 03:24:04 pm my stats up to this point 3 w/l ratio 2 k/d 15 accuracy and my top 5 guns are
M16A3 479 Kills M4A1 362 Kills AEK-971 278 Kills AKS-74u 180 Kills MP443 137 Kills Title: Re: Post your Top 5 and how you feel about it Post by: Hound, Grey Hound on July 21, 2013, 04:25:54 pm Ok, just got my 15th star with the xbow. It's now my number two overall weapon, I think. Maybe still the M1911, but either way it's over 1500 kills. |
