BEST CLASS?

Hey im just wondering what you think the best class is i like the medic as you get a lmg or else recon

FJFF

Recon is dull as hell unless i run and gun with it. Can't stand sitting in a bush for 3 hours. No real preference between the others, whatever my squad needs, or what I feel like.

I like being a medic - especially in conquest because i can just travel in between points reviving teammates and getting loads of points

yeah but if you can get a good sniper point where there is lots of action you would be grand

KeithM89_old

I agree - Recon can be great fun if your playing on a good map/mode. I prefer it on hardcore though as its almost always one shot kill

darraghwalsh100

yeah me to because i hate when you have a shot and it doesnt kill them

the best sniping places are non sniping places,
the normal places are always checked and you'll always be sniped there.

For me it depends on the map/situation. I could sometimes go through all the classes over the span of one game.

Large maps with vehicles and I'll go engineer, rush maps with strong emphasis on squad play and I'll go medic, generally when I'm bored or its a free for all I'll go recon. I don't really play Assault much unless my side is getting destroyed, then I'll start nube toobing all over the place

Medic + M60 + 4xscope + magnum ammo = win
loads of points from revive/heal, you can single shot snipe with the scope, and up close is just silly with the M60+magnum ammo

Recon bores me to death, what a waste of time sitting in a bush for 20 mins...

Medic defo if your mind is on your stats, the medic guns are animals.
Played medic last night and got some great KD, one game was 22 kills and 2 deaths.

My favorite though is engineer - I love taking on a tank david and goliath style as an engineer with an RPG.

Rocket launcher, tracer dart, and AK47 with the 4x scope is a good laugh.

With all that cheese how are you still so useless?

Lafortezza

Want screenshot of comparing my stats with yours?

On a map like Africe Harbour there's nothing like playing as an Engineer with tracer and extra powerful explosives.

Sod'o swords

Started using the 416 recently, x4 Acog, and magnum ammo.

I don't really use any class apart from assault, because see everyone one consoles, are absolute idiots, and don't know you can give ammo to other people than themselves, so i stay assault for the ammo.

It's things like that that make me miss PC.

Gonna try and tracer dart a sniper later, just so that they see the missile angle towards them

The recon class isn't a bad class, it's great for playing in levels with houses etc, it's great for teamwork if played right, I just load up the shotgun and use a sensor to let my team know if a house is occupied or what's in the immediate area.
What I can't understand is why "snipers" bother joining a team, they don't follow orders, they just snipe. IMO it's a waste of a team slot. if you want to go lonewolf then ffs don't join a team!

Recon with c4 all the way :P tbh for most players you dont need anything other than a pistol to deal with them and you can just laugh at tanks, so easy to flank, plant c4 and run without them noticing!

CelticDemon

I just run around using Medic with my trusty Defib.

Fook guns , Pads all the way man :eek:

the_syco

Haven't played in 2 weeks, but love running at a tank and throwing C4 onto them. That or putting six C4 on a quad bike and hitting a tank with it. Or even my new trick: cover a chopper with C4, so when it blows, it has a larger blast radius

Joined a server a few days ago and its popped up saying "No Jihading!"...I had to ask WTF did that mean, and pretty much exactly what you described above. Dying to try it out now!

I remember watching a video of that and it cracked up me. But in a game earlier i tracer darted an enemy (not a sniper unfortunately) waited for the lock on and fired, no hit, and again.... no hit
Was so disappointed would have been a first for me.

I miss that in BF2 Jihading isnt the same in bc2 hehe

Catsmokinpot

I find it a lot of fun tracer darting a helicopter and knocking it out of the sky, but there just arent enough helicopters and you end up running around with a crap gun and a dart gun

And because of that it has to be recon with autoshotty and C4, strap the C4 to a quad bike and kamakaze into someones base

I do it on battlefield so i dont have to do it in real life :pac:

darraghwalsh100

m16 , 4x scope, gernade upgrade, magnum ammo, warhead,

BEAST OF A CLASS i reccomend it.

Korvanica

I like being a medic but i much prefer playing as an engineer...

Its so satisfying landing a long distance tracer plant.. especially on maps like arica from the first base to the enemy spawn..

Or when you're in a tank with someone else driving and you come head to head with another tank, jumping out firing your rock and repairing your teammates tank from behind... :P

darraghwalsh100

One thing i have noticed about battlefield on ps3 is that the amount of snipers have died down , Maybe thats just me but i certainly have noticed a difference since the game 1st came out.

mozattack

Engineer is the best fun i'd say but i try to mix it up.

Recon assault is good, i.e recon with a shotgun or G3 and attacking

Raze_them_all

Recon, M24, C4.

Start of valparisso(defending) run yer balls off, go put c4 on the ground on the left side, hide in bush looking at opposite base 5 seconds later blow up tank with said c4, works everytime

dpe

Now I have the all the badges/achievements I pretty much never play Recon (If I want C4 I'll play Assault with a G3), and with the others it just depends on the map, although statistically I play Assault the most.

allybhoy

I generally go Engineer, Saiga shotgun with Slugs and either tank mines or rockets. Although i also pick up any kits i run into, so like if ive killed a medic\grunt ill throw out a medi\ammo pack and if ive killed a sniper I quickly rain down mortar in a general area and then switch back.
