Tankwhore spotted.

You should check the sig size restrictions for srf.

And yes I fucking hate using IRNV now. It doesn't work on Metro in the tunnel AT ALL.. No map has many dark areas.. Nerfing it made no sense whatsoever.

Gotcha

They nerfed it simply because it was Over powered, and a lot of people bitched and moaned



Tanks are very overpowered, so why not take advantage of it!

It wasn't over powered, it was just used by a lot of people. Now it's useless on every map. The tunnels on Metro, Damavand peak.. useless. It does seem to work on snipers still though. Now the new fetish seems to be Shotguns with Frag Rounds. That'll end up being nerfed simply because people will bitch and moan. And Tanks aren't really that overpowered. You just gotta be on a team that has a single competent engineer or support. Had a game where I destroyed 8 or 9 enemy tanks myself.. That was ridiculous. For being a game based around teamwork, there sure is a lot of lone wolf type people playing.. The only reason people even heal others or give ammo is for their own points..

Why would so many people use it, if it wasn't superior in some way or another to almost every other scope? I'm not saying I didn't use it all the time before, but that's just because it was far superior to a RDS or holo any day.

I really hate it when idiotic tank drivers take the ONE tank we have for the map, then get hit by an rpg in the back, bail out, get mowed down by engineer, and lose the only tank we had People just need to use Proximity scan more!

It was overused because people assumed it was overpowered. When in reality it only assisted campers. Which camping makes any gun or sight Op in that regard. I do better without the IRNV than I did when it wasn't patched. It became way too easy to rely on it and fooled you into thinking you couldn't be beaten with it sometimes. If it was anything more than 1x I'd say it was overpowered, but it still made long distance troublesome for most guns.
I know what you mean. We lost ALL of our tanks on Caspian once from a similar issue.. Morons bailed and engineer took it.
Same thing on Noshar Rush with a little bird in which the enemy pilot went over 40 - 1. All because our team bailed at the first sight of trouble. If I assume I'm done for, I die with the tank or chopper. 1 death for you to prevent easy kills for the enemy? More than fair trade off.

Haha same thing just happened except on Noshahr Rush, They jumped out of the Mobile AA , got killed, i repaired jumped in, and proceeded to go 32-0 the rest of the game , i think by the 3rd or fourth base their team was all

I hate it when poeple cry on a map where there is only 1 tank to rush in its so stupid >.> Imo in maps where there is 1 tank infantry does the asaulting and the tank does the suporting big maps other way around ofc

Can anyone explain the mobile spawn to me? I put it down but I can never select it after I die o.O how can I activate it or something.

I got my first MAV kill today, it seems like it's only possible on Metro.

I got nearly 50 now after just getting my first last week. It's something you have to learn. It's not easy at first. I still don't see how people can get them so often though. I hit people directly and bounce off a lot of the time.

You should be able to Select it,

Generally the only time you wont be able to select it is if it is Destroyed after they kill you, or if you are playing a Rush map and the Bases change. Also, if you spawn on it 1nce, it is destroyed and you need to place another one down, but if your Squad spawns on it, no worries.

Other than that i don't think i've come across a time where i cant select it after dying.

You can spawn on it as a non-recon class and it won't be destroyed. At least not the first time.

Weird :/ One time I even put it down -> suicide from the menu and it still wasn't there o.O

I believe if your NOT in a squad the mobile spawn beacon won't pop up to spawn on.

That could be the reason yeah, how do you join a squad? o.O on xbox you would just be put in one but no idea how it goes on the pc >.<

To join a squad, press Escape, then you can click on ''Squads'' and join one.

Played Rush for the first time forever today. I got reminded of why I don't play rush anymore.

I had the complete opposite experience. I was playing and was wondering why I don't play it more often. It was like a whole month since I had played it.

My accuracy went down to 14% from 18% ever since I started using the SKS

I can't stand the Sks unless I'm on a 4x with a suppressor.

I can't stand sniping with the SKS; so I play it with RDS, foregrip, and suppressor

Once you get used to bolt action they are pretty dam fun. Not as inconvenient as I used to think.

I always see everybody using the SKS am i the only one that likes the M39 Beter oO ?

Agreed! Just got the service star on the M98 today, love using it with the straight pull especially on maps like metro

I love the M98B. It's a great sniper-rifle, I like sniping on maps like Grand Bazaar, city maps mostly.

M98B stats.

I started using the M40 today and it was amazing. Then I unlocked the L96 and that was even more amazing. Then flew up to a building only reachable by flying on the MAV, and it was K

Double post. I was playing on Tehran Highway or w.e it's called and noticed people going up on the highway (I was US). So what do I do? I whip out my MAV and destroy their asses. I managed to finally wipe out their whole squad just by running them over and destroying their spawn beacons. The best part, it was only the squad leader left, and he decided to shoot me head-on, and I managed to kill him and destroy his spawn beacon, and when he tried to get back up, I destroyed his MAV.


I ended up just sitting in a corner and killing people with my MAV for a couple of maps, and then it changed to Operation Firestorm (I hate that map), and I managed to be the first to spawn in the jet. What do I do? I cut off my teammate's jet while he's trying to lift off and he gets forced to fly into a rock and die.

Bastard lvl 99

What the fuck do I use to level up my mobile aa? I thought they were the shitty turrets at your spawn.
