Someone posted a chart recently that breaks down all the weapon accuracies and damage amounts. The L85A1 is THE LEAST ACCURATE weapon in the game.
But anyway, each class has one weapon unlock. You can view them in-game by going to BFHQ and poking around.


So lets say if you play a Ranger and an Assault the most which woul d you unlock from eith erone of those and why ?
What class do you mean by Ranger? Spec Ops? I've been playing as Spec Ops a lot, so I'd go with the G36C. Here's a chart that breaks down all the details of each weapon.

The M4 and the M16A2 are quite good, and the G36C is about the best weapon in the game. The sniper rifles are ridiculous due to the deviation per shot added. You're almost better off sniping with a pistol.

that image isnt working, but from what i read the g36c unlock was pretty much cosmetic becasue it had the same specs as the default spec-ops gun.

The differences are small, but the G36C has a slight accuracy advantage.

You bet Nightshade :icon25:-:icon14:

I think I got the link to that image from you in another BF2 thread.

Damn I can't find much time to play. I really should find some
extra money and buy a damn Laptop that will run Bf2. So I can
run it at work when there's a slow period. *yeah right*
*Pinches self* Yup I was dreaming again. LoL!

Damn back to work. Cyas *waves*

Funny BF2 movie. Slow in parts, but it's got some funny scenes from movies reenacted in the BF2 game.

Oh hell yeah! I've been kicked from the server for people punishing me after they run into my arty strikes, and I never deploy artillary if there is a single friendly troop in the area.

[quote"EA]
# Vehicle tweaks - No more accidental kills from bumping a friend with your tank (try to avoid hitting him at speed though) and no more struggling uphill in an APC. Also no more improper TK allocation from vehicle explosions.
# Auto Team Balance tweaks - Commanders and Squad Leaders now immune to team switch.
# Anti-Air Missiles - These are now much more effective against fast-movers.[/quote]

All kinds of good stuff.

The L85A1(Medic unlock) is complete shit from what I've read.

still haven't decided on an upgrade gun...probably the medic one...

Nightshade wrote:FFS NO! Don't get that crap L85A1, it's the shittiest gun in the game.
Get the G36C or one of the shotties, depending on which class you play more.

Also, I read something that said that the LG851 was a great upgrade and a good gun...so I wanted someone's firsthand experience with the guns. That's the problem with the online guides and shit for this game...some of them I've found seem to avoid calling any weapon bad. Everything is good or solid.

Well, at least you always have the option of picking up someone else's kit after they die. :icon25:

Some of them are definitely worse than others. The larger problem is the lag-induced inaccuracy, it's fucking infuriating.
