QBU-88 is a two hit kill. SKS is like 3-4. The upside of the SKS is you can spray a bit more.

Really? I may have to try it again because I swear I have to hit dudes like three times, either way the 10 round clip thing still makes it worse imo but I’ll try again anyway. Thank you.

It’s a shotgun and it’s semi-auto bro of course you need to spray(Unless you use slugs). If you want an accurate Shotgun use the 870.

I don’t need a shotgun I was just salty my kill streak got broke lol.

It’s funny that in this game guns like the scar are still great even more so that the later guns. Except the Famas, I can’t hit shit with that gun.

Assault Medic. All day, errday.

That gun is only good when you’re target it within melee distance. It got nerfed crazy hard and is now a joke.

I would not go that far but yeah it is not what it used to be. Scar nerf was completely unnecessary though just like the Famas nerf. No one thought about the fact that both guns were already ass at anything besides close mid range or the fact that they both already had high recoil.

Post Patch FAMAS

-Recoil Increased
-25 round magazine
-Fore grip nerfed

Add that along with the longest reload of ANY Assault Rifle and yeah it’s kinda ass. I’ve been rocking the Heavy Barrel alot lately.

Don’t you just love how DICE has been over-compensating in every single fucking patch to the point where
something was good—now it’s not even being touched by players (FAMAS)—and then let’s not forget about
creating new bugs/game-breaking idiocy at the same time. -_-

~K.

Very few of these changes have been necessary. Mav glitch, Frag Round Nerf, maybe weakening the Armor alittle bit and buffing pistols were all that was needed. All this other shit should have never been touched. (Probably missing something else tbh but 95 pct of the changes made were unnecessary). Especially the Aircraft buffs, aircraft was already strong people just did not know how to use them yet.

That’s why Air Support dominates the game ala MW2 right?

Air Support in MW2 was easy to shoot down, you just needed people who weren’t kill whores to switch to a CB class with stingers.

Mind you this is all on Console. From what I have been told even in BC2, Air Support was never the problem on PC it was on console.

air support only dominates if people ignore it thinking they won’t die from it. both CoD and BF I have been on teams that do nothing and let air support rip them up because they didn’t think it was a big deal to let them have it.

With Jet cannons doing less damage to other jets now it almost makes Heat Seekers a must especially as they’ve been buffed. Choppers are the main air-to-ground attacking unit now to me unless you equip Rocket Pods on a Jet but I feel you’re gimping yourself.

Yeh I don’t know why they nerfed the shotgun and made the bipod so good that it turns LMGs into 200 bullet sniper rifles. I don’t think anyone really had that much against the foregrip other than DICE. It didnt exactly turn every gun into some nuke laser blaster gun. Nerf or not, I don’t stay still enough to use the bipod in any way that it would be efficient for me so Im still running the foregrip just for that little bit of steadiness that it can give me which gives me at least a tiny edge in face to face encounters now everybody runs with bipod.

I think the heavy barrel is so good now. It used to kick up so much but they tweaked it a bit and then they nerfed the suppressor a lot by increasing the penalties it gave to your gun. Heavy barrel is really the go to attachment for me in that slot.

I started using the AK-74M for Assault tonight and that gun is really accurate now. The recoil has been reduced quite significantly so its got an easier to handle full auto and the tap burst method can really destroy people quickly. Its a very good gun with very decent range.

Yeah the AK-74M got buffed so much. I use it with a KOBRA sight and a Heavy Barrel it’s better than the L85A2 cause I can slap on the M26 MASS as an under-slung attachment. It also has a smidgen less recoil too.

Rival vids can be pretty useful for some players. Hes never really taught me anything I didn’t already do but I like watching his vids just because its good to see someone out there who plays just like I do. I’ve not played enough TDM the past week and its showing because I am on a huge dip on my bf3stats graph the past 2 days.

Too bad the AN-94 can’t use the M26 MASS with the Under slung Rail Equipped. That would be the ONLY Assault Rifle I would use, you could handle Close Range, Mid Range, and Long Range.

I dare say that the PDW-R is the best PDW post patch.

After using the Dart for acouple days now I have to concur that that thing is pretty fucking stupid. Funny thing is, if you hip fire it the damn thing is useless. It does not miss, it just does no damage.
