I was able to play all the unlocked weapons and have to say that they are not worth the time and effort... EA should have upped the ante a bit and unlock some real worth wide weapons. Maybe one time use type weapons, I dont know. I just find the whole unlock weapon thing to be to time consuming....

Headshots

Post by Italian Hitman »

Question. Can anyone tell me if they ever got a headshot in BF2. I shoot people in the head all the time and they walk. How does this happen? I've heard that the bullet bounces off the helmet. Is this true? :confused:

I have gotten a headshot, but they are extremely rare as far as I know. The weapons balance isn't very good yet. Hope they fix it with the upcoming patch.

There is the Reality mini-mod that eliminates that, but can't be run on ranked servers.

the regular sniper rifles are not worth a damn.. however if you get the sniper weapon unlock then you are good to go to shoot through windows and kill someone with one shot :)

:thumb: I like that one the best as well. :cool: Just a few points shy of my next promotion. But I'll probably take a gun with the kit I use the most....engy or medic.

I got the medic and the assault now ... I play spec ops more than medic but didn't really like the gun ...I wanted the high damage/high accuracy :D

I'm very close to hiting first private , and once I can unlock a weapon I think the G3 will be mine as well. I like assault but I can't hit much with the weapon unless pretty close range. Spec ops Weapon is pretty deadly.


Although .... Sniping through windows of a helipcoptor would kick ass :)

I've just hit over 13000... it takes forever sometimes to get points.. what annoys me the most is the TK's that subtract em that shouldn't happen if you ask me.

the G3 and the medic are the best that I've seen.... now that the ranking has been changed you have m95 noobs everywhere which drives me nuts when you can't even stop for a second cause someone snipes ya.

Both are REALLY nice in CQC...absolutely deadly...if when when pings are right, LOL.

Of all the unlocks, I think the G3 is probably the best one of the bunch...second most powerfull gun you can get behind the M95 obviously. With the two ID's I play with I have five unlocks. Working on getting the G3 with my |D| account now. :thumb: :cool:
