lol i gave u a karma tushers
do u guys think the g3 is really worth it?
i swear by the G3 as the best assault rifle, but one you have to be very patient with. as with all weapon preferences, it depends on your playing style. and no, i don't mean what you can glean just by looking at your stats, I mean what you actaully enjoy and want to do in-game, as opposed to what you find you're better at (the two are not always the same).
having said all that - the G3 and PKM both adhere to the same principle - firing single shots is devestating and will get you many, many kills, but if you fire in bursts then you'll miss just about anything unless its 3 feet in front of you.
there are other threads you might check out for comparisons between the rifles... for example, check out some of the comments in AK47 and AK101 in 'BF2 chatter'
also, in this thread there is a link to a funny vid about just how devastating the PKM is since the last patch, which illustrates my point about single shots against full atuomatic firing...

G3, best assault rifle?
I guess it is a matter of opinions.
AK-101: Headshot = kill
m16 : burst (headshot+anywhere else) = kill
also, the ammo of the g3.. what is it, 80 bullets? 100? That's far too little for me. With the m16 you carry a total of 180 bullets, the 101 gets about 150. Reloading is a pain for me too, I can shoot down 3-4 enemies with the g3 and boom, got to reload. with either of the non-unlocks on single shot I can mow down lots of people before needing to go on a ammo hunt
Remember, it's all just personal preference..

I unlocked the MG36 out of pure principle. I was willing to rack up a couple more deaths per rounds to prove to myself the MG was still as good as the 1.12 days. After two rounds (the end of one round and the beginning of another: about 5-10 min total) of not even getting a kill assist after laying a few rounds into an enemy, I switched the the PKM and bam. 1-3 shot kills.
Well thought out and I agree but it's circumstance.Tushers wrote:
i would do is get the pkm cuz you need to unlock the base unlock first then you can unlock the SF gun(IDK if you already knew that or no) since you have 2 unlocks i would get the PKM and the P90 both ar like totaly uber in the sercumstances. Say you me on gulf of oman and ur caping for say rock fortification were you are sourunded i would have the pkm, longer range asome if you use it one shot at a time. sercumstance nuber 2 doing the same thing capping a base and you got the p90 you sitting there waiting for the people to get close and then uber oning them, but you do lose ur range. Um since your favorite map is oman i would take the Pkm, and then the p90 soi yea, jesus christ i write alot could i maybe have +1 karma i will +1 for you all pretty please with a cherry on top. I hope it answered your ques have a uber day
Peace out Eric
