ive heard its good with extended mag and red dot. unfortunately with the 20 round mag and iron sights i cant fucking kill anything to unlock the nice shiny things. the iron sights are horrible and hip firing makes me run out of bullets before the guy dies usually

for comparison, before attachments its got pretty much the same stats as the G18 pistol. same clip size (almost, 20 round mag in MP7, 21 with one in the chamber, G18 19 round mag, 20 with one in chamber) same damage up close, the G18 actually does more damage over range, MP7 has slightly faster ROF. for a primary weapon that sucks balls

I must be thick as fuck - i cant remember one map from the other and hardly remember one gun from the other. I still use the default guns from every class just about.

I constantly hear you lot say things in a conquest game like "He's over where 'A' is on this map when we're playing rush..."

WHAT? How the fuck am i supposed to remember something like that?

I'm in the same boat as Steve!

Maybe i'm getting too old for this sh*t!

Never!

Yeah im still usong defualt gums too. Think the progressiom suxks balls on this game. Prefered bfbc2 where if you unlocked an attachment you could put it on other guns.
Ill just wait till they have super unlock for 800 msp like they did for the last game. Oh to hear gary's rage will be such sweet music

nah i agree, the progression sucks arse. makes you want to stick with one gun and class rather than change around (i for one used the M249 as support for ages before really giving anything else a go). i like that theres always something to go for but it sucks to have to start with a basic weapon again if you want variety (something i love about the game), when you know you will do better with your pimped out weapon. also you need to try out all the guns to see what you like, but you cant really decide how much you like it till you unlock and get the good attachments as well. kinda annoying.

for the vehicles its much, much, much worse, my pimped out L85 rifle might still be beaten by a basic M16, even though mine is pimped out, but my pimped out little bird will never, ever be beaten by
a basic Z11W. with my laser painter and guided shells against them only having miniguns they stand no chance. even against dudes with just heatseekers and flares im far more powerful, not because im better, but because ive spent longer at it. and thats unfair. similarly my reactive armour on my tank means tank VS tank i can take more hits and get the kill first, again not because i fought better, but because im a sad git with hours in tanks. thats fucking bullshit really when you think about it.

i wouldnt have a problem with a fast track progression for 800MSP, it wouldnt be a problem. it would be a good solution for someone who wants the most from the game in a shorter period of time. i wouldnt buy a fast track for this as i plan on spending loads of hours on it anyway. but if i was someone who could only manage a game every now and then but really enjoyed it i would consider such a thing.

also, one thing to note: default guns are all well and good but they are team-specific, so you cannot rank them up as fast. you can only use the AK74 for at most half your matches (at first), as it is only for russians. your better off unlocking the first team free gun (M416 maybe?) and focusing on that, you can use that for all your matches and so it will unlock faster

And the m416 is actually a good well rounded gun

I am starting to focus more on the objectives especially defending them. Before i would charge around as a medic and i am finding by trying a few different attachements i can improve my gameplay alot. On Metro etc i always go Famas with RDS and Suppressor so i can sneak around a little more on the wider open maps i always chuck a scope on and hang back a little picking off targets and getting loads of revives. For those on the standards guns try a few different models and attachments they can make a big difference
