They did something to the UMP. It is a much better weapon now. I will stick with the AK-74u because it fires faster, does the same damage, has the same accuracy, but has a larger clip. While 5 bullets seems like a small price, the game works in clip counts, not bullet counts. So everyone defaultly gets 3 clips (Recon Rifles get 5 or 6 I think). So UMP vs. AKu is - 15 bullets. depending on distance and game mode, that is 1 to 3 extra kills out of the gun before you go dry. You know....assuming you shoot like me.....well.

SNiiPE_DoGG · Apr 27, 2010

Somehow, even thought the AK74u should for all intensive purposes be better than the UMP as it is stats wise, for me its missing something and just isn't quite as effective.... Very odd.

My only guess as to the reason for this is that the lower rate of fire on the UMP results is less automatic fire deviation over time and so you land more hits for a given time period firing at a target.

lets just all agree, that the knife is the best gun, Snipers should be 1 hit cuz im bad at headshotting, and i should stop playing css and play bc2

o and that lemonade is my man bi**h

haha

EastCoasthandle · Apr 27, 2010

Wow, all the low ping servers in my area all show:
0/16
0/24
0/28
0/32
Ever since the patch was released. I thought about waiting a few days but they are still empty. Nearly all my favorites are empty :shadedshu

kid41212003 · Apr 28, 2010

Pretty much, only HC mode servers are worth to play.

TRIPTEX_CAN · Apr 28, 2010

Anyone up for a few rounds this evening?

Mussels · Apr 28, 2010

i hate HC with a passion in BC2, but i'm not finding all servers empty... it just seems that the clan servers mostly are, and everyones sticking on the laggy main ones (all telstra gamearena servers lag. its cause they suck)

Stearic · Apr 28, 2010

I've been playing mainly Assault, and I've come to love the AN-94-magnum-RDS combo for its stopping power and accuracy :cool:

Played a bit of Medic (so easy to level up lol) and recon too, but for some reason the Engineer class really doesn't appeal to me. I am tempted to start playing engi just to get the CG. Then I could visit retribution on some local server regulars who've made me target practice dummy for their CGs. :cry:

Anyways, what's the shotgun + perks of your choice? I rarely use shotties, except for the 40mm attachment to the assault rifles, so I am not really familiar with those. But lately, due to my sucky sniping skills, I find that shotgun + recon balls (free points lol) suit me better....it's just a question of picking the right gun.

I like the Saiga + extra shottie ammo. Try using it on Panama Canal as part of the Engineer kit. You can spend almost an entire round running between points A & C - because there is lots of building cover between these two points you'll rarely be caught in the open where you'll be at a disadvantage due to the Eng's kit's lack of range. Plus there are plenty of vehicles in Panama Canal to blow up (use the tracer dart).

I hadn't used the Eng kit much until recently when it was the last of my kits to need leveling up. Now I love it. Have played as Eng probably 90% in the last week, whereas previous I floated between different kits for different situations.

TheMailMan78 · Apr 28, 2010

Until I can get my password reset I wont be playing anytime soon. One thing about steam......the support sucks.

kid41212003 · Apr 29, 2010

My Steam got disconnected while playing, and then my game freezed, had to use task manager to kill the process...

erixx · Apr 29, 2010

i have more than once seen that after leaving BC2 (Steam version), it stays on -in task manager- consuming about 250 MB....

erixx · Apr 29, 2010

aah and btw, what is HC? HardCore? And what does it do? I have not *felt* what it is...

kid41212003 · Apr 29, 2010

More weapons damage, no minimap, no spotting, no crosshair.

SNiiPE_DoGG · Apr 29, 2010

I wont touch hardcore BC2, but in MW1 it was literally the only way to play for me

i'm exactly the same. in MW1 the weapons were too weak, thats not the case in BC2.

People spams GL or rockets because guns are too weak in BC2 (a lot less in HC mode). I don't see people spamming them in MW1.

yes yes yes...

engies spam gustav
assault spam 40mm
snipers spam mortar strikes
medics spam M60

its not spamming when every class does it.

kid41212003 · Apr 29, 2010

The general idea is needless explosives at close range.

I think they could reduce this a bit by switching on team-kills for the 40mm & CG.

The M60 has been hit way to hard with the nerf stick, any Medic using it now is spamming because it takes as much to kill at range with it as it does for engineer guns to (when it has much larger bullets and much slower rate of fire). Seems the best choice now is MG36 with Magnum rounds, need the Magnum rounds otherwise it just lacks the power too, and the accuracy now for all LMG's is pretty bad, seems to be I'm only hovering around 12% with all of them.

Before patch though, I would have agreed.

Black Haru · Apr 29, 2010

I miss this game. I've been out for a week. anyone open for tonight?

lemode · Apr 29, 2010

almost to plat with the m16!

this game is getting more and more boring even playing it less doesn't seem to change how i feel. 1 more week till Skate 3 and 2 weeks till red dead redemption. at least they will give me a real break from this horsesh*t.

1Kurgan1 · Apr 29, 2010

Look what just showed up...

ZenZimZaliben · Apr 29, 2010

They really need to fix the CG. I am soooo tired of being shot in the face with it from 3 feet away and the shooter doesn't take any damage.

On a positive note I finally got my KD to 1.21! I know if I started over I would be very close to 2.0 but I'm not starting over..
