RPG's are becoming the new sniper rifle, that is for sure.One of my fave moments thus far was repairing a badly damaged Bradley on Alta and my guy jumped out and an enemy jumped in. I did not notice and keep "repairing" and then get a +100 vehicle destroy and +50 enemy kill note right then.Also, nothing like shooting an RPG through a random window across the map (easily a couple hundred yards) and getting a +50I enjoy just chucking a grenade in through a window from 50 yards away.IGod gun.

I like to get a enemy tank near death when I know my tank is going to die because I'm solo inside it without another repair man. Then jump out right as it dies and pull out my rpg, crouch next to the smoking rubble and blast the enemy tank with the rpg for the kill. For some reason they never expect the opponent to be alive when they only get the kill enemy vehicle bonus, not the +50 from an enemy.RPG's are becoming the new sniper rifle, that is for sure.One of my fave moments thus far was repairing a badly damaged Bradley on Alta and my guy jumped out and an enemy jumped in.

Be aware that magnum ammo increases damage by 25% on LMGs, ARs, and SMGs. While it decreases bullet drop on sniper rifles and shotguns without a damage upgrade.I am just
<-------------------- Level 22, M60 platinum star
i was on that road too, but decided to use other guns. I dont want to be caught with my pants down when they nerf it. I've only got 5 gold stars right now, but i'll go back and get the other 5 soon for the 2 platinum stars award. I'm pretty sure my other platinum star will be the M-416.
Yeah, I seriously need to branch out. I've played enough engineer to unlock the repair tool and the AT mine, but that's it. I've played assualt once or twice in specific situations where I knew I would be respawning at a location where the 40mm grenade launcher would come in handy, but I haven't even unlocked the ammo box yet. And I haven't touched recon. It's just that I'm not bored with the medic class yet. Eventually I'll spend a lot more time with the engineer kit.
i beasted with the default one last night...
I am almost level 20 and have everything unlocked but the AR tree, going to work on that next.
I absolutely loved Medic up until I unlocked the M60, then hopped over to Recon - LOVE that class now that I've been able to figure out how to snipe/spot & use mortars. I still haven't 'figured out' the M60 yet (using red dot or 4x) but with how you guys have been dominating with it I can't wait to jump back over once I max out Recon.
Doesn't even necessarily need to be an elevated position. The 12X makes it very easy from most places. Also, near trees or bushes works well for awhile before they finally find you.The auto-spot scope is money.
the AUG is very good, but i like the 416 better. M16 might be as good/slightly better than the AUG, but i havent used it enough yet.M60- yesengy really is personal preferance. The AKS is the most versatile, but the PP200 is very good in close. You can put 30 bullets in a guy's chest before he even sees you. And of course, you could always use the G3 if your looking for more stopping power and range (but no RDS)i'm moving my way up the recon train, but i havent been sniping. i used the G3 for a while and then did some of my recon time while getting the bronze stars for 2 of the shotguns. i'll start on it eventually though. i was a pretty darn good sniper in Bf2 and was sucessful in the 2 or 3 rounds i've used it so far in Bc2.
Recon has it easy, everything is pretty much unlocked right away.The starter Sniper is absolutely fine for the entire game if you should choose, once you get the mortar, the 12x scope and the Auto-Scope you are golden.I preder the Gol myself simply for the added accuracy, but there is a very minimal difference.
Haven't tried the GOL yet but unlocked it last night. I'm in love with whatever the silenced semi-auto sniper is. That thing is awesome.It takes three shots a lot of the time but you can fire it fast enough that it doesn't really matter much.
My thoughts exactly for Recon. The GOL is nice, but if you use the M24 w/ 12x & Auto-Spot scope you are just fine. Anyone used the silenced sniper rifle at all? I unlocked it last night and haven't really had an opportunity to use it. Power looks to be pretty far down, but if it is still a headshot = kill that gun will be a beast...
We were getting counter-sniped by a dude with the PP2000 last night. It was driving us crazy.
With assault I understand the M416 is probably better, just curious where would be a good point to stop and unlock a set point at the others. Finding the best non-noob weapon to be able to jump in with, I guess.
yeah, you can fire little controlled bursts at snipers. There's no recoil. its not like the M60, but you can counter snipe if the guy is dumb and lets you fire 4 bursts at him.
See above.One shot headshot kills are still possible I think - don't recall as I just started using it last night - but it's got to be a perfect shot and up fairly close.Still love it though.
It wasn't taking 4 bursts to kill us. I only noticed one. But he wasn't across the map. Maybe 80-100 yards off.
yeah, i'm talking from across the map.I guess i well placed 4 shots to the head will drop a sniper, but you cant do that at true sniper range. Mid range i could see it. but there are better engy options at mid range.
The default gun isn't bad its just that it has a 20 bullet clip.
Yep - be PATIENT when you first start out; I was not a very big fan when I first started playing as I had no clue what was going on. As I learned the strengths/weaknesses of each class the game became MUCH more enjoyable (aka - if playing as Recon, don't waste your time trying to defend/take a contested cap point, that's an Engineer/Assault/possibly Medic Job). Try each class and find one which suits your playing style best. This isn't like MW2 and it much more tactical, and dare I say "realistic" (for a video game).
Its weird, I have had games where it will light anyone up that I put the sight on and then others(the majority) where it won't tag a single person with an auto spot.
The T88, SVU, and VSS snipers are all two shot headshot kills. Only the bolt actions are one shot kills.
I've noticed the same thing. Maybe not quite that bad though. It does seem to miss guys at times but so does the manual spotting so it's probably related to that issue.
Yeah, that makes sense. I wasn't sure since I'd had one shot kills that were likely due to them already taking damage from someone else.
Absolutly money. Nothing like my M-24 with the 12X scope and Auto Spot. I am a lethal killer....and I head shot with the best of them.
Sweet, thanks for the clarification!
In BF2, the M95 was the only sniper rifle that would penetrate cockpits, so using it on certain maps on the enemy airfield was
Fun for all as their pilots jump in to fire it up, dead. Rinse, repeat. 
The accuracy is nice, the reload time to me is a moot point, as I will only use bolt action rifles.
I guess my point kinda was; should I be excited about using it over the GOL? I've been destroying fools with that thing, and have been excited about unlocking the M95... but I can't imagine it being "that much" better (other than just being cool looking).
i dont remember, but it might have been.That game was way overhyped. Mediocre graphics and game play (the only "new" thing that was kinda fun was the sliding into cover) and no innovation.
Agreed, but we were so excited for the possibility of a "new Battlefield' experience that we jumped in. I never played a moment of the SP.
It works well against people who hide behind a wall or building. Basically you have them spotted and they run behind a fence or tree and you can shoot through it into them. I almost have it unlocked and have only used it from swapping kits, but I have heard it can damage aircraft.
I have 6GB of RAM. I don't have a problem, unless the server or my connection goes wacky.
