at least one of my pistols isn't bronze. all shotties aren't either.

i thought trying to get stars on different weapons would make BC2 more exciting, but i'm not even trying for that as much. the mg3s aren't as cool. i may be done trying to get any stars after i go platinum with the xm8c and aug. using different weapons and playing hardcore fucks me up so bad. hardcore is only if you want to get sniped by the Saiga. 80% of my hXc deaths are from that Fn weapon. it's bullshit! ahhhh.. i feel like playing some BF2MC!

speaking of the Saiga, i played some squad deathmatch and it was so Fn weak! everybody SNIPED! if it wasn't a svu, it'll be a bolt and half of the people used Saigas. it's BS! zombie and i were the only ones running assault/engineer. i think hXc on BC2 is what's making me like mw2. if i want to yell after every BS thing, might as well play cod.

booo!

i'm getting just a little bit tired of it. i don't want to stop though. i need my Battlefield! i'm sure i'll get bored if were to only play BF2MC again. same with MW2.. i'm sure i'll get tired of those games even sooner. i just know that BC2 isn't as good as the others. yeah, it has new features, but it doesn't make it better than the other BFs.

the weapon damage on BC2 also ruined BC1 for me. i can't play BC1 anymore. i don't see why they did it that way on BC1. now, i know why A LOT of MC players gave up on the Battlefield series after Bad Company 1. BF2MC also had it down right. assault rifles and smgs kick so much ass on MC. dude, MC gave you a 30 bullet clip and the damage was perfect. BC1 gave us a 50 round clip and it takes almost every single bullet to kill somebody. WTF?

I think the reason it doesn't bother me to go back to BC1 is the damage is virtually unchanged in the recon class.... in BC1 and BC2 a SVU is 3 shots to kill and a bolt is one shot at close range. The pistols take a lot more shots to kill, but its not like I sucked at pistols.

Yeah the bullet damage on BC1 is why I can't see myself going back much. Sure, flying the choppers is fun but that random noob with the LMG who takes you down is annoying.

it took me a while to get back to the chopper after flying on the BC2 demo. i'm sure it'll fuck me up even more if i were to try it out now. the chopper looks tiny on 3rd person. it also takes a little more force to fly around on the BC2 chopper. the BC1 bird would be all loose. i have to try it again though.

speaking of BC1 choppers.. hehe i played about a month ago. it was not pretty.

update on my stars! all assault rifles and smgs are platinum. fav ARs? xm8 and m416 rock! i tried the an94 the other day and it felt pretty good too. fav SMGs? ump and pp2000! the 9a91 and scar also kick ass.

LMG platinums? m60, t88 and m249. i just started with the pkm, but the xm8 lmg feels a little better. the AR is way better, but if i'm making another LMG platinum, it'll probably be the xm8. this will take a while though. i'm not a big fan of the medic class.

m2cg, rpg and pro pipes are also platinum. pistols? the grach is platinum and i've been getting a lot of kills with the m9 recently. so, that's next.

the gold star excitement is kind of over now. i'm sort of done. the other weapons don't really interest me. i've been making my sniper rifles gold, but i really don't see them going platinum any time soon. the m24 and sv98 with a 4x are pretty fun though. oh, i picked up the gol, here and there, and that was fun too. i've been running with sniper rifles on the last 2 nights and so far, the m95 gave me the most trouble. shots didn't register and more than half the shots weren't 1HKs. no, it wasn't on hardcore, but the m24 and sv98 were dropping people so Fn fast!

i still love my assault class, but playing with SMGs gets me more kills and i survive longer. having my rpg ready also helps, A LOT. anyway, that's it for my score whoring. no more stars for me. i'd say, "i know nobody cares", but i may be wrong. B-) XD

The SV98 gives me a lot of problems. It feels under powered compared to the M24 and GOL. But like you, I only run 4X or red dot on the SV98 and M24.

i get atm gold stars randomly. it takes a long time to get one, but i like getting those random stars since i don't keep track of atm kills.

my favorite sniper rifles are the m24, gol and sv98. then again, the vss and svu get me even closer to the action. i thought i wouldn't try running recon again, but i sniped some more and it was fun. i put the red dot on the vss and svu for the 2nd gold stars. that was cool, but the most fun was on the gol. damn, now that' a really nice rifle! i went silver and gold pretty fast. i have a lot of time on the gol and i'm not sure why. i went gold right away.

oh, i picked up somebody's t88 with a 4x and i got a bunch of kills. i decided to get my own t88 with 4x and went gold on that too. it wasn't that bad, but i doubt i'll be using that any time soon. i may start using the gol more often. either with a stock, 4x or a red dot. yup yup

yup, that's the only problem with the vss. it sucks that you can't get extra ammo with a red dot. i run out of ammo pretty fast. oh man, i've spammed the back button on so many assaults. 95% of them don't have a Fn clue. it's not like i'm asking for ammo across the map. i run all the way to them! :mad:

my GOL missions are pretty fun though. i usually kill an assault before i run out of ammo. so, i always have my grenade and sensors. if i do run out of ammo or find that an AR or SMG would be better, there's usually one on the ground. wookiee with a pp2000 or ump is pretty Fn fun.

yup yup.. the GOL rocks! that is all.

nah, i've been trying to get some gold stars with the G3 and Thompson. it'll just take a while! oh, i had made my shotties bronze. now, i've made a few silver. i had some BS moments with the 870 and spas, but they still gave me some good runs. i tried the ns2000 the day after and most my shots weren't Fn registering. there was a time were i stood behind a wookie while a shot him twice in the back only for him to turn around to stab me as i shot a third time. what the fuck! anyway, the 870 is fun to use.
