I've been using the lmg's more, and the only one I think is worth using is the one with the fastest fire rate. Can't recall the name, but it has around 850rpm. I use it with bipod and extended mags, great for closing down areas and clearing rooms. With that fire rate very few weapons can beat it at close range. Got around 10 kills within 20 seconds on metro yesterday with it.

Or when the opposite team is pinned down, use your recon class in one of the crowded hallways, throw down a motion sensor, and snipe as you get a steady stream of points.

I remembered the name of the lmg; it's the M249, and it has 900rpm.

I tried out the M60 and PKP last night (since I haven't used them for months), and they seem good for long range. Slower fire rates so it's more steady, but they don't fit my style of play.

Every time I play with the M249 I just go Rambo mode. Such as last night on damavand peak rush. I flanked the building that has an m-com (third set I believe, the one before the tunnels), and wiped out everyone in there. Had to be around 10 people in there and they couldn't stop me.

ACOG scope with the M249, then hip firing in crowded areas is magic.

Though my favorite part is looking at the beautifal art created on the walls.
Bullet holes and blood brings a tear to my eye.

LMG's aren't my style so if you see me using a LMG, I'm not trying. But my try hard weapons would be the M416, or MP7.

And Santi do you play PS3 or 360?

Omg Matrix, you cursed me. My Battlefield just froze on me.

There are problems with it. Horrendous problems, shotgun with frag rounds? Jesus...
But then, how long has it been since we've seen an FPS without bad balancing in one or two weapons?

This whole CoD or Battlefield arguement? Please. It depends on what you want. CoD is fine for switching off your brain and shooting annoying 10 year olds for a few moments.

Battlefield is an emmersive game. You have to think about it. Work well with your squad and plan things out. Your tactics are alot more important in battlefield than they are in CoD.

Anyone who plays both games will also understand the whole 'camping' arguement. But they should also understand that in CoD or Battlefield TDM, sitting in one spot doing nothing but shooting anyone who walks past IS camping. On conquest or Flag games? It's defending. Tactically.

That's one thing battlefield players get and CoD players don't.

In my personal opinion? Battlefield all the way. CoD is just getting slow and repetitive.

shotgun with frag rounds?

Balanced months ago. I haven't seen anyone run frag rounds since.

I have a 360.
I'm so alone . . . from AG users at least.

Wow, another Xbox 360 player.

[b]BF3 > MW3

Well, that sucked. Right when I pressed submit my internet crashed...

I've been using the F2000 a lot recently. When BF3 first came out it was the best gun to use, but after a few months they nerfed it. I started using it again because it's in my top five for most kills on Battlelog.


It has some bad vertical recoil, but using the foregrip reduces it. For the second attachment I usually use suppressor or laser sight. Suppressor so I stay off the mini-map when I want to flank, and laser sight for small maps. It already has great hipfire because it's a bullpup, but the laser sight makes it better.

A month or two ago using foregrip and suppressor would actually make the gun worse, but I guess they fixed it.

I've also only been using the A-91 for the engineer class. It's a bullpup as well so great hip fire, it has a fast fire rate, and is very accurate. I usually use it with foregrip and heavy barrel, sometimes I'll attach the laser sight on small vehicle maps likes Seine Crossing.

*spawns on teammate* Enemy in front of me, take 5 seconds to bring weapon up... What the hell, Battlefield?
