    Im not sure best weapon really counts after the patch its more best weapon plus attachments. there so much difference in a weapon with grip/silencer/heavy barrel and so on.

    Il try out some engin and support guns and do a list

    So far

    Medic

    M16A3 with flash suppressor (unreal, accurate at any range)

    AEK 971 with heavy barrel (when getting suppressed seems to still be able to shot accurately, and is very accurate in burst at range)

    Most kills I have with the G36C (1200+), find it difficult to use now. Can't see me using it much now despite it being my go to gun in the past.

    Love the AEK too (5th most kills), but admittedly and somewhat surprisingly haven't used it much post-patch. Will have to get reacquainted with it later :pac:

    Assault:
    • AK-74M - General purpose, great gun
    • AN-94 - I like the burst fire, good for ammo conservation
    • PP-19 - My favourite gun in the game, reminds me of Killzone

    Support:
    • PP-19
    • Copious amounts of C4
      Other than that I mess around with the MGs

    Engineer:
    • PP-19 - Matches my play style on engineer well so I use this

    Recon:
    • SV98 - I rarely play recon, but I use this just to spot for the team

    I have to say I really like the PP-19. It's a PDW so you can only really expect to hit things up to medium range, but it's pretty fast to bring up, especially with a holo.

    I don't like the shotguns in this game too much, they're all overshadowed by the USAS which itself isn't very effective IMO.

    I like the suppressive effect of MGs. Very good for defending flags (I have a lot of secret places ;) )

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead


    Right, aside from the 870:

    Assault - L85A2 (lovely gun, low rate of fire makes it controllable)
    - AK74M iron sights, mans gun :pac:

    Engineer - A91
    - HK/G53

    Support - C4!
    - M60E4

    Recon - M40A5
    - M39 EMR, as a battle rifle instead of a marksman rifle

    General - 870MCS
    - MP7

    G363C on engineer was my favourite but I've been having some success with the SG553 since the patch

    For medic I've been using the M16A3 and even the AS-VAL which I used to think was a bit too much of a close range weapon but I think they've improved its handling at range.

    I've been using Holo scopes rather than red dot lately too and it just seems to work better but I cant understand why.

    Oh yeah, the scoped magnum is the king of handguns. It takes a while to get used to it but it's a great backup weapon for taking out snipers and also no-scoping at close range when you are out of ammo.

    I was trying slugs with the M1014 shotgun last night and couldnt seem to hit anybody even at close range, I'm not sure if it's to do with suppression or what but when I switched to buckshot I had no bother. It's a fun, satisfying boomstick :)

    Assault -
    M16A3
    M416
    Famas (seems weak now)

    Engineer -
    M4A1
    G36C

    Support -
    M249
    Going to try some of the others

    Recon -
    M40A5
    M98B

    General -
    870MCS

    I found I'm only now getting used to the balance changes since the patch,when it came out I found I was dying way to easy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 137 ✭✭Roorah


    Assault -
    M4A1 (holo,foregrip,silencer)

    Engineer -
    PP-19

    Support -
    M60E4 (firing bursts with bipod is ridiculously accurate)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 211 ✭✭CrazyFish


    As medic I use an-94. The gun is unbelievable since the update. As an Engineer I used to only use the m4a1 but with the change in attachments I don't like the gun at all, so I am now using the g53. Since this patch I don't find the engineer as effective. And it takes far too long to repair tanks now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 155 ✭✭G.J.


    Assault
    AN-94 (Russian Holo, Underslung Rail, Heavy Barrel, Smoke Launcher)
    L85A2 (Iron Sight, Flash Supp.)

    Engineer
    G36C (Holo, Bipod, Heavy Barrel)

    Support
    PKP Pecheneg (Iron Sight, Foregrip, Extended Mags)

    Recon
    M40A5 (Rifle Scope, SPB, Laser Sight)
    M98B (P-KA, SPB, Laser Sight)
    SKS (Holo, Foregrip, Laser Sight)
    M39 EMR (Holo, Foregrip, Suppressor)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,825 ✭✭✭Timmyctc


    Medic the AEK is pretty good if you have a heavy barrel and grip to counteract the ridiculous bounce you get from it. It's TTK is really low

    Personally I can't see past the G36C grip and laser sight when using the engineer. Although the M4 is also good.

    Glad to see the USAS frag rounds nerfed beyond belief. That thing was like an LAV pre patch


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,806 ✭✭✭Lafortezza


    I agree about the G36C, it's really good as long as you don't try to shoot people far away. A-91 with foregrip and laser sight is crazy good for tight maps while needing to be an engi.

    Question... is there any difference at all between the M16A3 and the M16A4? Seems odd to have basically 2 of the same gun.


    I'm currently in the process of trying to get all the unlocks for assault and engie guns so my two most used guns for each class would be:

    Assault: M16A3 with holo - foregrip - heavy barrel or AEK with holo - foregrip - flash suppressor

    Engie: G53 with PKAS holo - foregrip - flash suppressor or Scar with holo - foregrip - heavy barrel

    I do sometimes revert to the M4A1 with holo - foregrip and flash light for engie as it makes mince meat out of most people, or switch it up to the MP7 with extended mag and laser sight when running support or recon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,920 ✭✭✭AnCapaillMor


    M16A4 has burstfire of 3 rounds, good for long distance, not so great short up close.

    Think the M16A2 in BC2 was the same
