Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Thread

lol, I knew it was something super simple but I haven’t played much to where I’ve been in the chopper a lot. At least I won’t be afraid of getting in the passenger seat only to suicide. Thanks a lot, gonna try that out the next time I get on.

Been grinding gold stars on sniper rifles for that all goldstar weap insignia. I did the sv98 lastnight I’m pretty much a so-so sniper, but the sv98 became the bane of my existence. Is it just me or is that rifle complete garbage? I know its supposedly the better of the rifles in terms of range but man, that reticle is pretty bad.

Whats THAT supposed to mean?!?

Exactly what you think it means, go back to the SF4 forums. Anyhow I just replaced my xbox so I should be online by tomorrow

Random question. When your using the 4X scope(ACOG) are you supposed to be aiming with the tip of the chevron or inside of it? Also is their a difference with guns that same similar stats i.e 9A-91 vs. SCAR, SPAS vs. 870? Or are the differences cosmetic.

I aim at the tip of the chevron.

Could be cosmetic. But I did notice that the recoil on a 9A-91 with MMN SG is all but non-existent.

Which snipe do people use more often? I’ve tried all of them and like the m24 (or the first one if I got the name wrong). Those little dots on the scope help me out for distance shots and the time in between shooting feels to be the fastest out of all the one shot snipes.

Depends on the occasion, for me at least.

If I know there are good places to hide and oversee the field, and depending on my mood, M24, GOL, or the Barrett w/12x scope and spotter.

If I’m going to be semi-mobile moving from one hiding spot to another, T88 or SVU w/4x scope and magnum.

If I’ll be using the surroundings to move in like a ninja, VSS or SVU w/red dot scope and magnum.

Got my platinum star for Gustav today. I feel dirty…

I’m 79 kills away from getting my knife platinum. I’m feeling awesome. :-p

just out of curiosity can the guns do damage to helis? I usually can shoot down a uav with an assault rifle, I was wondering if I could damage a heli before it takes me down and switch to engineer?

have any of you tried sticking a person with the tracer dart? :lol: I did it by accident thinking I had a pistol and it stuck the dude. Today I tried it and it actually makes the tracer rockets home on them.

Yea I have. It will make them appear on the map too without spotting them.

Don’t! I’ve got 1,253 to your 484 kills for it. =]

Lmao you know I love you Zack haha.

Off-topic a second:

I’ll be going to ZP when SSF4 comes out. Get your mic fixed yet?

I’m pretty sure the 870 does a bit more damage than SPAS-12, the 870 seems to do better in mid range than compared to the SPAS (less shots needed). I think the SPAS reloads a bit faster though. As for the 9A-91 and SCAR, I can’t find any difference between then. The damage, recoil, and reloads all feel pretty much the same. Only thing I could guess might be the 9A has a faster draw speed? But it seems like a straight buff to me.

Got mine back from a friend of mine today, been wanting to play it. Did shitty first couple of games then started doing good. 40 more kills with the starting sniper rifle before I get my second gold star.

This game is unbearable when playing without 3 other people capable of higher brain functions. Add me plz

^ This xINFINITY. I rarely play this game alone. I only do when the guys I play are in full servers and I need to pass time until their games clear up.

I’m also 80% sure that the 9A-91 has a higher stability stat than the SCAR. You never see the stability stat in tables but it’s definitely there. It has to do with how accurate your gun will be after you move your sights or run really quickly. The 9A-91 will remain more accurate after extreme amounts of motion and then immediately switching to fire.
