There are probably 219041284 threads about this, so dont flame.

Im coming very close to my Seargent rank (only about 500 points away) and I was wondering which gun I should unlock next. Ive already got the L85A1 (Medic) and M95 (Sniper.) Ive found myself playing Spec Ops more than any other kit (besides medic) and was going to unlock the G36C. Then I picked up a DIO-12 and Jackhammer, and they are beasts at close combat. I know im not going to unlock the G3 or PKM. So, if anyone has any of those 3 guns, I would like to hear how they perform and if their worth unlocking or not. I dont play Karkand much, so im leaning towards the G36C.

i got the G36C on my corporal unlock and it rocks.
i will neve ever again use the MEC or chinese spec ops guns and havent used the M$ since either.
its dam naccurate and has nearly no recoil. popping enemys on mid to long range is no problem at all and the high fire rate makes it also a good close encounter weapon.
im only thinking about the M4 from time to time because of the aimpoint but the ironsight of the G36 is very accurate and easy to use.
i didnt go for the DAO or jackhammer cause i prefer to take enemys on long range and i also play mostly spec-ops. i only take the other classes if theres need for it

Just get whatever class you're gonna play with the most. No sense in getting the anti-armor gun if you're only gonna be that class when a tank is camping.

I vote G36C.

If you like spec-ops get the g36c, you can take out anything (UAV, tanks, 6 camping infantry in 1 spot)

IMO the Special Ops unlock (G36C) is REALLY an upgrade! This gun is almost perfect...
K, u have to deal with these heavy armored guys.....
The Jackhammer, if u get used to it, rockz da house in CQC.
The DAO-12 is the best in CQC, imo.....12 shots with the power of a Jackhammer....blows a$$!
So, choose the unlock of the kit u prefer atm. I would recommend the G63C.

i'd say either the g36 or the dao, i got the dao at corporal and i love it; but the only time i use it is at mashtuur; use the eryx to take out the blackhawk, and no one can beat you in close quarters if you have the dao out
the g36c will be my next unlock, i love the spec ops kit, just bc blowing things up with c4 is so much fun, and having a better gun is necessary

I love my G36C however there are only two complaints with it. For one it's a Spec Ops gun without a scope. Granted it's good at long range and medium for single shot sniping but a scope similar to the medic gun unlock would have been nice for long range shots. I'm used to the iron sights now but it's the principle of the thing. Also I believe that the damg. is just a tad too lacking. 2 or 3 more damg. per shot would make a world of difference between 5-6 well placed shots to about 3-4. When attempting to hit someone on the move it's just a pain to shoot them several times and still see them get away.

I also unlocked the DAO-12 for my second unlock because I do play AT quite a it. Often Spec Ops and Anti-Tank trade up for total time played most. Granted on maps that I need long range shooting I don't use the DAO however on city maps where I basically attempt to get into close positions to take out vehicles its nice to be able to turn a corner and take people out quickly with the DAO. Also when I die and I know I am going to respawn into a firefight I also choose the DAO for that added close combat punch.

Don't really know what my next unlock is going to be quite yet. Since I don't play the other classes as much as I probably should unless the situation calls for it. So we'll see.

Cheers.

I suggest you take the unlock for the class you play most ( behind medic and sniper ). when it's spec ops ( which it seems to be ) take the G36C. Nice high rate of fire, very accurate.
Don't take the DAO-12 if you don't plan to play AT. that would be an unlock wasted.

I wouldn't call it an unlock wasted
Using my first unlock to get the SA80 (L85A1) was an unlock wasted (not that the gun sucks, but I only got it bc it was of the kit I played most)
I unlocked the DAO second and don't really use it much now, but I will when I get sergeant, bc then I won't really care about points and will be more concerned with having fun, and the AT gun is fun, and the DAO adds to it
same with the G36C, I'm unlocking it instead of the PKM next bc I find blowing things up with c4 fun, and need a gun that will defend me better

what I meant to say was that I feel there is no use in unlocking a certain weapon if you don't plan to play that kit on a regular basis anyway.

I'm about 200 pts away from my second stripe, I already have the DAO (which is pretty neat when in CQC), I'm really not sure what to take next as the most kit I play is the AT .. I think I ought to be more of a 'team player' and the engineers kit looks inviting but I realy don't know what to do. I don't want to waste an unlock, I've been there before

Looking at my stats I think I need the 'shoulder launch missile' with strategic nuclear capabilities, but would that be cheating

I could try the sniper's weapon but I get vertigo .... all in all, I'm a bit stuck.

Everyone was new to the game at some point.

Anyway get the G36C, you won't regret it. It's the most accurate full auto weapon in the game. It was my first unlock and it was and still is my favorite unlock.

Now the pkm is a unlock waste. The default support MGs are much better, especially the RPK-74. PKM has slower firing rate and less accurate.

G36c is one of the best guns in the game, i would get that.

Edit: added a c to the g36

I just ranked up to 1st Sgt. a few minutes ago and unlocks the P90 and the MG36. All I have left is the MP7 and the Jackhammer.

All the unlocks are good though. Even though I use more than others.
