Agree, i can't stand fucking noobs going around with the AT out.
It's ok for long range targets, or if you are waiting for a tank and an infantryman comes out of nowhere.

But using the rockets as primary weapon in close quarters is just pathetic, the ultimate noob-tube.
If they're using it in close-quarters, you should appreciate it. It means they're not about to blow you away with the DAO-12.
That's the point. AT have one of the best weapons for close quarter, and I would appreciate more some DAO shells in the face.
AT rockets in close quarter are for noobs who can't even use a DAO and usually blow themselves up in the process.

Anyone ever hear of All is fair in Love and War?

If you want to talk about being realistic then anything in the game can be used against anything else...hell I'd kill you with a rock if I had to.

As for the AT, the above posters are right, it's not an easy kill with an AT rocket vs. Infantry if you don't stay still. When I've killed infantry it's usually because they have the drop on me or will so shortly and I don't want to switch weapons. I'd much rather use my SMG or Pistol but it's much easier to unload that rocket at center mass.

If you don't want me to have an easy kill with the ERYX or SRAW, get in an armored vehicle, then I have to hit you more then once to kill you.

If U think its noobish to use AT rockets on infantry and that you need to be SKILLED to use the DAO you are totaly fuckedup
Learn to use the mp5 or U are the noob.

I have had to use a rocket to take out infantry that was leading a tank instead of following it...  shit happens...  in the heat of battle... you have to "Gitter done."  - Cable Guy

mp5's are generally only good at close range due to it being a souped up m9!! mp5 is just 9mm, therefore good at close range. AT should be used against armor really as you are all aware, i have expert AT and used it in the appropriate manner, however down to me being last man on server with last flag nearly capped I have used it to kill 3 men capping the said flag and saved the day, and had a heros handshake from team!! The weapons are what you make of them really. Good luck owning AT whores, they are easy pickings if you jusat 'zig-zag' towards them with your knife out.

Dao owns, the only downside to using it is it messes up your accuracy as it did mine =p

Is it just me or does NOONE USE BULLETS ANYMORE? Every server im on now the kits being used will be about 80% AT and most of those will be retards who ONLY use the rockets, primarily against infantry.

Anti-Tank

I'm sick and tired of spending time getting an advantage over somone (i play as sniper, go figure) proceeding to empty a clip of pistol ammo into their face and then having them reflexivley turn around and fire an SRAW in your general direction, saving the day. I wouldn't mind everyone going AT if they would use the actual GUN for once, this whole AT mentality of using the SRAW as an anti infantry cannon would be far more scarce if dice decided to implement some of that 'realism' they were pushing as a selling point of the game and realise its not physically posible to carry 6 missile tubes on your own.

There, rant over: feel free to bitch more about SRAWS and crap as long as you don't start trying to justify using the AT kit like a moron, there is no excuse, i dont care how n00b i am for not using the SRAW exclusivley; i just don't want to hear it.
this is why i fly the J10 a lot now

I like to use AT on infantry only servers, when everybody's using the noob PKM rifle and spamming grenades and claymores everywhere, combined with an extreme force of noob snipers.
The rocket is very effective against the nubzors, and the DAO-12 will finish the other bitches off.

Actually, I didn't say that. Please read the post more carefully, you'll see that the person who quoted me was the one who said that.

I think that you should use whatever weapon you have that is best in the situation... if you come around a corner to see infantry while you have the AT out of course you should fire it, but if it misses rather than reload I would pull out my DAO (takes about the same time).

Edit: Just checked Jestars posts as well as mine, he didn't say that either, Degman is just making up quotes.

You getting killed by that long distance rocket is your own stupidity to keep lying on the ground thinking that you'll kill that guy before that rocket reaches you. Instead, get on your feet, strafe a meter to the left or right and almost 80% of your hated AT'ers will miss for sure!
Im pissed at people using the AT rocket in situations where they would get torn to shreds by it as well; all you people saying omg if you had realism then all the near-misses would kill you can suck me. ^ that guy needs a bullet, i never complain about getting ranged by an SRAW (its what they are used for in real life more often than not), i dont complain about people going AT and killing armor; all im sick of is people thinking "hyyyyk AT rockets+half-concious aiming ability=easy kills-fun for anyone not playing exactly like me" Everyone else not saying something that at least considers my point of veiw; see my line about dying in a small hole full of hurtful things if you try to justify retarded use of the AT kit.

Wow, I think you really are frustrated on this part. You need to chill down and spend some time away from your computer, cause I think all this BF2 experience isn't doing you any good.
My logic makes complete sense, unlike yours. SRAW or Eryx is one shot, ONE FREAKIN' SHOT! So it's less than 1/2 chances I instant kill you. If I hit, big deal: your dead. So you were too close and too easy to hit ->You would have been dead too if I had a DAO in my hands instead of a AT-launcher. (but oh no, thats also a lame weapon!)
By the way, as someone said above: It's so funny to see an enemy panic when he misses his one shot opportunity to kill me.

Long range I dont mind. If it happens I should probably have seen it coming. But from about 2 feet away if begins to piss me the hell off. Id say expanding the blast radius so that whoever fired it becomes engulfed in a fireball was t he solution, but then that would just worsen the problem. Prehaps some form of arming distance, ala Grenade Launchers these days?

If they did add some realism then EVERYONE would use the SRAW as their primary weapon as one shot could potentially kill about 10 people due to splash damage.

I added a line in my orginal post which basically said that if you dissagree-dont post, i dont care. So im pretty much covered for anything anyone wants to say, if its against my narrow perception of enjoyment then its off-topic, go home and die. Patronising mofukas who say shit like "you need to chill man step back from the computer" need to shut the fuck up, i have played this game for a total of 200hours since i bought it, which is why im so pissed that every time i attempt to play like every other game - to have fun, im getting fucked over by some dickhead who spends all day trying to max out their k:d ratio or some shit and when thats not happening some pissy glitch youd never noticed before suddenly springs up to screw your game. More than half an hour of bf2 a week hurts my mind, but i payed for the bastard so i get to go agro and abuse randoms on forums like anyone else.

I think I'm the only person who uses the MP5 instead of the DAO/ERYX against infantry most of the time.

Of course if I've seen a vehicle and you pop around the corner, of course I'm going to fire my damn missile at you, because I kinda have it out already, hmm?

exactly, if i have my rocket out expecting to shoot a vehicle, but instead i see infantry i will unload the rocket before trying to pull my dao. i would rather kill than be killed
