They nerfed magnum ammo :qq:

I guess they really do want to make snipers worthless in this game.

Yeah, all they have is the Scout Elite which has PDW highfire, super high velocity and the fastest rate of fire of a bolt action in any BF game. Snipers gonna be so trash.

How good is the G36C? I never got to try it during the beta. My two favorite guns from the beta, the M416 and the AKM, are now criminal only and that is kind of a bummer. I guess I'll be playing criminal for a while until I get those weapon licenses. :jihad:

G36c was the worst Operator weapon to me, by far in fact. SG553 felt far better, and the AKS-74u even more so.

They should've definitely brought in a G36k or the G36e as a burst-only rifle a la BF2 (both of them wrecked faces pretty well in BF2) instead of reusing the G36c.

My question is what police force uses the Swedish K? That seems like it would make more sense as a criminal weapon.

None, they moved it for balance purposes because all of the Criminal Engineer weapons were garbage except the P90 so they gave it one slightly less useless PDW (the UMP-45) in a trade with the Swedish K. Didn't really do anything, because only the P90, K10, and MPX are really worth using.

It is, however, pretty neat to hear that they made it so you can get the full stock and full barrel on the double-barrel shotgun.

So which is it? Is the G36C good or bad? Dammit Goons! I need to know how to most optimally spend my Halo dollars! :argh:

Also, I know we have established the CUM Police but what are the criminals called? The CUM Pack?

The Good Guys having the UMP makes no sense because the UMP is pretty much like the signature SMG of cops in real life so it's weird for them not to have it. And yeah, I can't find anything about any US law enforcement agency using the Carl Gustav. Popular with Egyptian cops though!

I'm guessing you meant that the Cops should have the UMP? Yeah, probably, but they should also probably have the P90 to be fair, but then the Criminals would be stuck with all lovely Engineer weapons until you got 1250 loving kills with your decent PDW of choice.


Edit: I really want an MP5A3/4/5, it's like the forgotten SMG of this era, everybody throws in an MP5k and forgets all about the classic.

Premium only loses value the longer you wait, I guess, so if you're going to buy it you might as well do it now.

I preordered this game just now and will preload prior to release because it's been way too drat long since I gamed with goons. I remember we all had fun with BC2 back in the day (yes, it's been that long). Now I just need to get a gaming headset (yay for payday tomorrow).

This is not a console game. Every time I see console footage of any BF game my first thought is "oh this is what it would be like if fat 10-year-olds went to battle"

Giant Bomb Quick Look is up, btw, if you care:

They seem generally unimpressed by the campaign. IDK, it looks marginally more interesting than your average AAA multiplayer shooter campaign. More stealthy. Bad acting. Stylish and dark.

Drivable couch, GOTY 2015.


Edit: Also, from the console peasant gameplay I've seen, the ACWR (that is given to either all pre-orders or all purchases, guess we dunno yet) looks like a really good weapon, people will probably not even be using the R0993 at the start of the game because they will all the the ACWR which looks to be a good bit better. Fire rate seems to be lower than its BF4 counterpart, though.

If they kept the tone of the Bad Company campaigns (maybe moreso the first one) they could at least differentiate themselves better. But noooooo, CoD takes itself very seriously so they must do so as well.

At least it manages to sneak into the multiplayer in the form of Megalodon and the alternate reload animations.
