How come there isn't a Battlefield 1942 dog tag?
[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;40025176]I'd be damned, I think that's a Leopard 2.[/QUOTE] It actually looks a lot more like a Challenger 1 with the turret design [editline]25th March 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Mastahamma;40025354]Friend's pretty convinced that's a Type 98, a Chinese Main Battle Tank [img]http://www.military-today.com/tanks/type_98.jpg[/img] So we can pretty safely say that the Chinese are pretty much guaranteed[/QUOTE] ACtually yeah it's probably that
[QUOTE=zeldar;40027635]I've never had an issue with the M16 or jets.[/QUOTE] Jets are completely broken on any map which doesn't have the LAV-AD/Tunguska, there's absolutely no way to shoot them down from the ground otherwise while they can kill literally anything. M16 is just a scrub weapon for scrubs.

Yeah he's not a dev he's the community manager But damn he's only colonel 5? [editline]25th March 2013[/editline] Wait no he might be more than that? I don't remember please rate me dumb I talk about things I don't know Also 666th reply
He may have just reset his rank. Some people get bored of being a high rank for so long.
[QUOTE=Zanpa;40028841] he's the community manager [/QUOTE] Could have fooled me!

[QUOTE=zeldar;40027635]I've never had an issue with the M16 or jets.[/QUOTE] if you don't have an issue with jets you either fly jets or don't play BF3. They are one of the most broken parts of the game the M16 isn't overpowered it's just the easiest gun in the game to use. if it was nerfed or even outright removed people would just move on to the AEK or M416 and do about as well regardless.
[QUOTE=MegaChalupa;40028684]M16 is just a scrub weapon for scrubs.[/QUOTE] use a good weapon or play to win and you're a tryhard/scrub when did it become frowned upon to try to win in video games?
[QUOTE=TextQUAKE;40029091]use a good weapon or play to win and you're a tryhard/scrub when did it become frowned upon to try to win in video games?[/QUOTE] Shh... It's okay scrub, contain your butthurt. There's no point in playing to win if you aren't challenging yourself. Or in the case of jets, abusing a clearly broken mechanic to guarantee yourself a high KTD in an objective based game.
[QUOTE=TextQUAKE;40029091]use a good weapon or play to win and you're a tryhard/scrub when did it become frowned upon to try to win in video games?[/QUOTE] since jets

And a decent player doesn't need to use the piss easiest rifle in the game to capture objectives.

L85A2 is the easiest to shoot imo.

It may be easier to control but you're sacrificing damage output in the process. The L85 isn't a jack of all trades like the M16 is. If you use it outside of it's optimal range, you have to play better overall to succeed in using it.

I'd rather just be able to walk in and shoot everyone in the face in rapid succession with my super accurate gun that has no penalty for doing so.

And if you just want to run and gun why aren't you just playing a twitch shooter like Call of Duty or CS:S?

With no teammates spotting you can't do a whole more than guess where people are, if you walk around a corner and there's a guy with a shotgun waiting for you you're very fucked. No amount of positioning can negate that, but good aim and a decent gun can.

Because the vanilla maps, B2K, AM, and EG, maps where the combat isn't focused around corridors or tight areas, better planning and situational awareness trumps everything. If you know what to expect when moving through a map you should be able to take out that dumbass camping a corner with a shotgun no problem. And back to the M16, it's clearly broken. All other weapons have some sort of trade-off to them. The AEK/F2K/FAMAS sacrifice long range effectiveness for close range effectiveness, the L85/SCAR/AN-94/AK-74 vice versa. The G3 sacrifices volume of fire and ease of control for greater damage per hit. The AUG is the perfect example of what a jack of all trades weapon should be, it can be used effectively at any range but dominates none. The M16 is effective at all ranges, all situations without sacrificing anything for it. It's the epitome of ease of use and doesn't fit in with the other weapons in the game at all. It's completely out of place. I don't get the point in using it when it's so clearly broken. Why even bother killing people with it if the weapon is doing all the work?
if dice doesn't include the m1 garand as an all-kit in bf4 i'm gonna have to choke a bitch. [editline]24th March 2013[/editline] and the thompson.

Every weapon have a combination that makes them overpowered.

Flanking from close range and doing Medium-Fire Bursts. The trick with the AKS is the massive damage that it does at close and medium ranges. If you control your accuracy, you can practically fuck up someone.

[QUOTE=Raijin;40030554]Silencer, foregrip, kobra.

[QUOTE=S31-Syntax;40030513]MP7, optic of choice, extended mag, laser pointer. Hipfire faceraper[/QUOTE] looks good but not OP because of low damage i wanted to try it but it's a coop unlock. i guess i'll try the p90 w/ laser, closest you can get.
