Assault Kit

I guess the game makers wanted it to be an easy kit to play... but I started an account just to play assault and unlock the G3 to play around with. It only took 6 hours roughly of all infantry combat (no armor whoring) to rack up the points for LC and the unlock... most of my time playing I was just screwing around and I easily was over 2:1 KD. The armor, the noob tube, the punch of the assault rifles... I'm surprised I can take down assaulters at all when I play my main account (support/AT).

The unlock is a piece of crap too... even though the stats say differently I find it to be LESS accurate than the M16/AK in single shot over a distance. Oh well, that's the fourth account I won't play anymore... :D

Anyone play Assault only? I can't deny the mindless fun of lobbing nades and spraying crowds of dudes... too bad the unlock sucks balls.

I did, but stopped after going 50something-3 a couple times.. support is my favorite kit, but sometimes you just need to whore off some steam.(AK-101 ftw)

i only play assault when my team blows and i need to start clearing faggots out. Otherwise its AT or Med

Is it my imagination or was I landing one shot to the head kills with the AK?

Coming from playing tribes I just love the mortar effect of the noob tube, I've picked up the g3 off of dead guys, it packs a lot of punch in close quarters you have to go single fire/prone/iron sights at medium distance to take down people. I kind of like it but the clip is too small/not enough, I don't want to have to depend on support guys to drop ammo. I swear sometimes I almost feel like taking the TK when I see a support guy standing next to me, I'm spaming "Need ammo!" and he just keeps walking by.

The PKM is pretty cool, inaccurate as all hell for me, even prone. I just like to walk through those narrow alleys between the buildings on SaK like I'm the Terminator, mowing people down as I walk through.

PKM/Support guns definetly take practice to shoot people from distances. Took me a couple of days to get used to it.

I'll pull assault if the team I'm on is backed up to one point and we're fucking surrounded by spawnkilling fucktards who refuse to cap the point or even TRY to cap the point because of the easy points they are getting raping people who are spawning.

Kill some fucks, and run like hell, hope I can get to a point and cap it before we run out of tickets.


Other then that its pretty much SpecOps/Support, I unlocked the g36c first and I love it, I did unlock the m95 second and its "meh" I can kill shit loads of guys with it. But if you are sniping you really aren't being much of a team player so I don't end up doing it very much on pubs unless I get pissed off at crappy snipers on the other team. The PKM is a fantastic weapon, takes a little to get use to, but its a fucking human cheese grater if they are anywhere medium or close range. The RPK (MEC support gun) is pretty decent itself, the SAW can suck me, and the PLA one is even worse then the SAW.

I'll probably get the PKM next, just because on city maps like Sharqi/Karkand/Mash its a devistating fucking weapon if you know how to use it.

I'm the same, I will do anything but assault until I need to avenge myself after a few consecutive deaths. But only on city maps.
The ak101 is a human lawn mower.
PKM is good, DAO is lethal, Medic unlock goes through the ammo fast. That's all the unlocks I have so far.
I also love the USMC shotgun, close range is a one shot kill. I was playing last night, and cleared 4 enemies with 4 shots around a flag.

I wonder how they thought giving up the grenade launcher was worth the G3 and a couple of hand nades?

I have the PKM and DAO also, if I ever make Sarge I'm pretty sure I'll get the Jackhammer. Other than my main account I have a sniper account with the M95 that I plan on getting the G36C unlock for at Corporal. That way I'll have a up close spray/shotgun guy and a sneaky/no armor guy. :D

I'm very interested to see the Assault Kit in the expansion (and what new weapons will be added to the other kits).

Well rumors are abound that with the patch due sometime next month that the rank system won’t be so ridiculously difficult for the casual gamer to obtain unlocks and such, given the new reduction in points obtainable with the support classes and the chopper capping going away they had better bring it way down.

The people at the very top play some five to six hours a day, the first few ranks go pretty easy but once you hit that 25,000 till your next rank mark it seems like an eternity. Two to three hours a day for a about a month of playing mostly on a 24/7 SaK server and I just hit 50k points last night.

It’ll be interesting to see how they tie the rank system into the SF expansion, all they’ve said so far is they plan on doing something and “no comment”

i love these timely threads
im comin up on my next unlock at corporal and was thinking of either sniper or spec ops guns.

ive been playing assault alot more lately and sniping is fun but i really rack up the points playin medic and helo capping have the medic already unlocked but cant quite decide whats next

This unranked server has all the weapons unlocked 69.13.215.131

I'm not very good with the iron sights on the g36c but if you can aim at peoples heads at distance then it's a quick death for your opponent, they're going to give credit for destroying commander resources in the next patch though, something to consider I guess.

The m95 sniper rifle is great if you don't like the MEC or China sniper kits, it can shoot through glass of a chopper, I've read that it does more damage to assault armor class than the m24 but I think it's the same.

in most cases i find the AK more accurate than the M16, but i think the M16 is supposed to be more accurate as a single shot, probably is. you can still get good shots with the AK though, you just have to get used to it.

Get the g36c you won't regret it.

The m95 sniper rifle is great if you don't like the MEC or China sniper kits, it can shoot through glass of a chopper, I've read that it does more damage to assault armor class than the m24 but I think it's the same.

The m95 has total penetration of anything that has a penetration value... thin walls, cockpit glass, and body armor. The m24 and m95 both do 95 damage but the m95 does 95 damage (down to two little health bars) on even the heavy armored kits (assault, support, AT). Both of course give one shot kills on head shots on any kit.

A quick trick I picked up when using the m95 with my sniper account is to quickly draw your pistol after a body shot... don't move your crosshairs at all and pop a quick shot... dead bad guy. Actually with the report of the m95 once you fire a shot at someone they will know roughly where you are so it's best to finish them with the pistol (silenced) if they are within range.

i unlocked the m95 first and im thinking about medic unlock or special ops gun

and the m95 crosshairs are so fucking thick its gay. also the m24 is more accurate

personally i like the mec and china sniper rifles cos they are very effective at medium/long ranges 3 shots or one head shot and dead guy

the medic unlock is hard fucking core in single shot. i wouldn't bother with the FA unless you're at point blank though (though it kills pretty quickly in FA at close range if you keep it down to 3-5shot bursts)

[edit: i have the DAO-12 and L85A1 unlocked and plan on unlocking the G36C in about 8 months when i hit seargant *grumble*]

It won't take you that long.

I'm at corporal now, with just over 17000 points, and it was 2 weeks ago when I got Corp.

You'll find you'll start getting more points, just start ground pounding like a motherfucker on 64 man city servers.

Ever since I hit corporal, my rate has slowed dramatically. I haven't been whoring vehicles or grenade launchers like I used to, and now I'm actually starting to have a lot of fun with the game. Sometimes, obviously, the mindless slaughter is more fun, but most of the time it just gets old too fast for me
