Battlefield Bad Company 2

[Quixon]

I have the second gun unlocked. It's got a weird ass scope, but I did a lot better with that since you can shoot more than 1 fucking bullet at a time lol.

The scope on the original gun is much better though, but your fucked if you don't get a head shot or the guy is already damaged... because it was taking 2 hits to kill for me... regardless of where the shots were located (aside from the OHK Headshots).

I'll also admit I'm a fairly average sniper.... so if you're a bit better than myself you may be a bit more productive with the first available gun (bolt action one).

All of the semi automatic snipers require 2 shots to kill with, at least. M24, Gol, SV98, and M95 are 1HK for headshots, and 1 for extremely close ranges. Otherwise its two. M95 with magnum ammo and 12x scope is 1hk at almost any range. SVU + ACOG + Sniper Spotting Scope = rape though. Super easy to use, good at close range, and decent stopping power.

M24 is by far the best next to the GOL. M95 is also pretty beast.

Uh what? Are you sure you're playing BFBC? Cause there's zero scope sway in any BF game. There's bullet drop, but no sway or windage.

You're either on crack or mean something different then I do with the word sway, its very easily noticeable on sniper scopes. Vertical only and about half a body length.

There's no movement of the cross hairs on any BF sniper. I think you're confusing actual picture sway, like COD, with bullet drop.

Sight picture sway comes from the natural breathing of a person. Thus why you steady in COD for each shot. In BF, you just factor in bullet drop for varying distances.

There is no sway. However, BF games tend to try to model realistic bullet physics, so you end up having to account for lead time and gravitational drop.

What versions are you two playing on? I seem to remember the snipers swaying a bit on the PC beta version, but not at all on the 360 demo.

If it turns out that the console versions don't do this, I retract the YOU DUMB commentary and replace it with this.

[Korietsu]

Welcome to being on the only version of any BF game with that happening. Sorry they fucked up your version =(.

PS. BC is not a PC title. It's a console title.

[TheDirtyHobo]

PS. BC is not a PC title. It's a console title.

Then how do you explain this?

And I play on 360, but you really walked into that one.

[Korietsu]

BF2 is hardcore PC. BC is an arcade shooter that's aimed at consoles.

[Trocian]

Sorry they fucked up your version =(.

You mean they didn't remove it from the PC version. Goes nicely with the aimbot on consoles, I guess.

[Akucaen]

I don't see why people are bitching about the sway on the PC version. It's CONSIDERABLY better than most games which make you fight with your mouse for a clean shot. It's honestly not all that bad.

[Celeras]

Saying BC2 is a console title when there are more people playing on PC than all the consoles combined? Lol.

At least now I know why you won't give your soldier name if you do in fact own it, I'd be embarrassed to whip out the 360 tag too.

BC2 is way to go. MW2 landed in trash already i own both pc and ps3 versions. like ps3 more (couse of bigger screen i guess). great game. campers isnt an issue really they easy to take down. great game dice, great game.

[Akucaen]

BC2 seems like this wonderful present too since MW2 sucked so goddamn bad.

Extra kudos for sucking me in so much since I've never played any of the prior games before.

For those that want to rank up quickly.

I'm getting a constant 5k-15k points in squad deathmatch. Swapping between assault and eng packs. However if I want unlocks then typicallly conquest is where I sit, swapping packs constantly.

So is this game a snipefest like all the other bf games?

[Belragga]

Just wanted to share my recent experiences with slugs.

They rape face... literally across the map sniping with a shotgun... priceless.

Also awesome at medium range, 2-3 Saiga slugs to the chest kills anyone and its very easy to get headshots.

I foresee nerfs to the range of them since "sniping" with a spas 12 is kind of ridiculous.

Lots of snipers but in conquest the majority of people I run into are assault and med packs. Most people seem to swap based off of squad needs or capping needs.

[Deadgye]

Watched my friend play a match or two today. Wasn't really that interested. The whole not being able to prone thing pissed me off too.
