I'm coming up on Sergent Major and have 2 unlocks left, the L96A1 and P90. I'm not really sure which to chose. I use Anti-Tank more than Sniper but I like the DAO-12 just fine. What would everyone recommend unlocking?
I dunno, the P90 isn't that bad though sometimes i get puffs of smoke and no hits. But i don't use the AT kit much either. The P90 is a lot more stable than the other submachine guns you can choose and is deadly at long range. The L96 really isn't needed if you've mastered the bullet drop on the M95.
Final deal:.....unh, yeah

P90 is just the same as MP5. this means it sucks. Only upside to this gun is the large ammount of ammo in one clip and laserdot sight. The sniper gun is just awesome, since I unlocked it I play sniper for 80% of the time while before the unlock i didn't at all.
Umm, you get both of them. One last rank, two unlocks, P90 and L96A1
I believe you get two unlock points per promotion so.........
I love both of them, if you only have 2 unlocks left at Sergent Major & you have SF you should get both.
So... unlock both?
damn guys got their post in before me grrrrrr!

i cant wait till i have all the guns unlocked pwning action
P90, like all the other Anti-tank subguns outside of the PP-19 is a joke. The only high point is that on single fire it's a little better for making long range shots than a pistol but it's dot sight makes it much easier to aim. My brother uses AT a lot and has switched to it, he just double taps their heads now. It's rate of fire and magazine capacity also allow it to compete with the shotguns at close range much better than the other subguns, but the shotguns will usually still win.
So, for your current play style the DAO's the best, but you get some range capability with the P90 if you want that.
As for the L96, it's basically a M24 that you can use as MEC and China. If you want that, go for it. That's what I did.

i dont yet have the p90 but the L96A1 owns hardcore
what i like about the DOA is the high amount of ammo it has, the other guns suck with ammo
dude, you'll get both..

Yeah, 2 unlocks, grab both lol.
But if you want a recommendation, take the P90. I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I believe that if you play a whole lot of AT, the P90 offers you a better midrange weapon which is very useful on some maps. The DAO is a monster and anyone using AT will usually use it anyway, but when you need more distance it's not a bad gun from the few times I've picked it up.
The L96A1 is by far a better weapon, but if you don't snipe much then you really won't make much use of it. On the other hand, the L96A1 is BF2 sniping on easy mode. It's basically the win button. The only sniper rifle I use is the M95 because of the damage, and the armor pierce, it's just a more useful gun to me. But if you want headshots with minimal effort and practice, the L96A1 is a solid choice.

i know that, how many clips does the p-90 have?
2 extra + 1 in use (3 total)

ah lame, i blow thru ammo so much, and i never find anyone to get ammo from
Working on aiming fixes that issue better than any support kit ever could.
you're supposed to be behind your team, providing support. AT gets those 3 clips for self defence, not for storming enemies.Cohammer wrote:

whit my new rank i gonna choose p90 and the black medic gun
i unlock the p90 because i play AT a lot and the medic gun simply because i want to test it.

Indeed you get both guns...
The L96A1 is a good snipergun, but has quite a bullet drop. The m95 has the least bullet drop of all snipers, so if you like long distance sniping go for that one (also handy for shooting through glass).
Furthermore, it seems the l96a1 does only 60% damage on troops with armoured vests and 95% on troops without vest. The m95 does 95% damage on all the troops regardless of vest or not.

So why are we even discussing this?
He gets both! done!

Well, the P90 is friggin fast after the patch. IF you know how to use it properly, you can own all in your path. Just remember to get a support guy to tag along, as someone forgot to tell DICE that a faster rate of fire means you run out of ammo reaaly quick.
L96 is an excellent sniper rifle. The sound is amazing. Apart from that, not really sure.

Unlock whatever you want and use stocks , they pwn
ffs when will people start reading...
L96A1 has the LEAST bullet drop and for some unknown reason M95 has MOST (well, except Type 88 and SVD).
This is due to size and speed of projectile. L96A1 round is supersonic whereas M95 is not. Also M95 fires the heavier round.
As to P90, i got all unlocks and prefer P90 over DAO-12 as me and auto shotguns are not friends. P90 is like a goddamn mini-minigun at uber close range.

Ah I didn't realize I'd get two unlocks next rank. Guess that solves my problem. Thanks.
