''Misanthropes have some admirable if paradoxical virtues. It is no exaggeration to say that we are among the nicest people you are likely to meet. Because good manners build sturdy walls, our distaste for intimacy makes us exceedingly cordial "ships that pass in the night." As long as you remain a stranger we will be your friend forever.''

btw pp2000 sucks, play the coop missions and try to get the mp7, that is a probably the best pdw.

Nope.

P90
Okay the p90 is beast.. But since OP just got the game it'll take him a while to get it where as the mp7(which is still a damn good gun) can be got(along with all the other stuff from coop) in a couple hours.


It always comes down to the MP7 vs. the P90. The MP7 shoots crazy fast and lets you kill really really fast, but unless you get the extended mag, you will burn ammo like rice paper. The P90 is nice because it is extremely accurate (even over distance) still has a high rate of fire, very manageable recoil, and even though at a distance it's damage steeps horribly...

You can still kill people if you spam half of your 50 round mag at them.
Yeah I always have to use the ext. clip on the mp7 which sucks cause I can't go all ninja but I find it to be a better gun, they're both extremely adequate though.

Silly rookies.

I read the word 'shotgun' and got sad.

I make a living of selling my body, and I don't mean sex.

Nope, I use various guns in the all class pool. Hell, I don't even use my sniper rifle as a sniper.

Semi-auto snipers in BF3 are so -blam!- annoying because of suppression. Just use a PDW.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

OP, you need a SPAS12 then Wookie mode can truly activate.

TBH, I've been thinking lately that the game would be better without any sniper rifles at all. That would force people to move on the objectives instead of sitting on a hill for 20 minutes taking potshots at people. Keep doing what you're doing, OP.

  • 12.29.2012 5:26 AM PDT

No, you use whatever you want, that's why the other weapons are there.

Just counter snipe. It's easy enough when every sniper that's zoomed in has a light on their face.

I like the rifles, but I always put a Holo sight on them so I can move around. That way, if I see an enemy, I can take them out from any range.

I do know the type you're talking about though, and I don't like them either.

Go put your head through a mass spectrometer. One of two things will occur:
1. Your head will explode :)

2. [Error No Element(s) Found]

I recently got BF3, i enjoy the recon class the most and i dont snipe uber long distance is use my gadgets accordingly getting up close to my my TUGS down. But i recently unlocked the first bolt action sniper, the SV98, i like the semi auto nature of the MK11, but one thing that puts me off is whether i should really like the starting gun instead of the SV98. I use the Mk11 as a battle rifle with the 8x or iron sights, depending on the map. Is it OK to stick with the starting gun, (sniping is fine but it takes too long and with the fire rate of the MK11, most enemies die quicker with the MK11 than the Sv98), is my observation correct, and if so who else uses this.

ps: i would also like to know when one unlocks that automatic pistol.

I'm not saying I have any problems taking out snipers. I just think those rifles are unnecessary in the game and promote really boring camping.

Do not invite me to your private group. I will not join.

Equip a PDW

Or use one of the close range Battle Rifles. The SKS, or M417

"If practice makes perfect" and 'nobody's perfect,' then what's the point of practice?"

Who needs a sniper rifle when you have a crossbow with balanced bolts?

No tracer and low projectile speeds.

Brainwashing, idiotic media: "hur dur, vido gaems cas vilenc n iz nt gud. dey ned 2 b baned."

Logic: Really? Then please explain how there's violence in third world countries. I guess they're all poor due to the large amount of video games they buy.

You're doing fine OP. It's called the Recon class, not the Sniper class due to people that play like you do.
