Yeah, i've seen that with the medic gun. It's like you don't put the tip on the target, you have to get the full target filled between those two poles in the middle. Looking at it is like looking through a microscope, gives me a headache.Brent wrote:
Ok, my favorite weapon is the assault rifle. You point and three shots take the guy out. It's simple! But the other weapons i'm having problems mastering. I've seen people get a one shot kill with the medic unlock.
SO, does anyone have any "Weapon" tips and tricks or links to some sites. Lets create a library of this stuff for all to see.
Thanks!

I disagree with most of your statements...Talon wrote:
"The" assault rifle? There are quite a few different ones. Lets start there, and how to use them effectively.
G3: The biggest mistake people make with the G3 is going in close. The G3 has amazing accuracy in short bursts, and a very good sight. Unfortunately, it comes with only 20 bullets per mag. So don't get in close, or that third/fourth enemy will kill you. Now, the G3 does 40 damage per shot. Only the PKM and snipers do more. The PKM is innacurate, and the snipers need time. 3 shots from the G3 will kill anyone faster than they can kill you. Plus, you get hand grenades, far better than GLs.
F2000: This is by far the most versatile gun. It'll outshoot most things at close ranges, and has an excellent scope for long range. Firirng in 3-4 shot bursts at long range will surprise people. Also, the flashbang is far better than a smoke, as it will effectively freeze people.
AK47/101: These two guns are both high powered but tend to lack accuracy. Up close, they are the best guns in the game. The 101 will work at medium ranges as well in controlled bursts, but the 47 is less likely to. Avoid using these guns at long ranges. If you have to, always get prone and zoom in. But the advatange of these guns is quick, non-zoomed killing at close ranges.
M16: With the burst fire and low damage, this is best used at very long ranges. But the M4 is normally better as it can handle short range as well. Rubbish gun, really.
L85A1: The scope fails to make up for the pretty hopeless accuracy. If you like singleshooting, its great. It gets outpowered at close range though.
G36E: The long/medium range dream. Amazing accuracy. Always remember to zoom, it doubles the accuracy. You cant miss with this. If you get in close, aim for the head.

Definitely agreed. I stopped using the M16 for awhile because I got pissed off that it took me at least 4 or 5 shots to kill somebody with it but it's definitely the most accurate assault rifle and you can fire single shots more quickly and accurately than with any other assault rifle. I used to hate three-round burst but I learned to time my clicks instead of clicking maniacally and it works pretty well (same with the DAO-12 - if I click as fast as I can, some of my clicks don't register and the gun doesn't fire for every click, which ends up causing lag between shots).Spearhead wrote:
M16 is anything but a rubbish gun, any experienced assault player will know that. It is extremely accurate at long ranges, and the 3 round burst is great for close quarters combat. That's my opinion, anyway, based on 75 hours of playing with the assault kit.
Well Talon not a bad synopsis on the weapons except for one unbelievably huge error, the pkm is not inaccurate. I have used it with way way more success then the sniper rifle, i know it is due to the recent pactching efforts but it is the truth...just ask around.Talon wrote:
