So... Battlefield: Bad Company 2

get outta here lol. i hate mw 2 that game is CRAP. i played it for a week and thats it. this game blows away mw2 and i love playing it online but its either im lagging slightly or the hit register is off....which many people have complained about.blues35301

A couple guns are actually inconsistent and maybe even buggy, I think. I've been seeing inconsistent bullet trajectory with the G3 as of late (a global weapon unlock), and it seems to happen at random. Sometimes I can nail people with it over massive distances with perfect accuracy, taking them down very quickly, whereas other times I cannot even TOUCH people with it at mid-short range (this is tapping single shots, which normally means the bullets go *exactly* where you're pointing.)

I've also seen it with a few other weapons on rare occasion. Hopefully they figure out what's going on, because it's a pretty frustrating when I do experience it. The G3 would be so much better were it not for this..

Is it true that in BF: BC2 it takes too many shots to kill someone?

[QUOTE="Roland123_basic"]

[QUOTE="blues35301"] I think its pretty much terrible. Using assault rifles especially. I use the AN-94 which does 2 burst shots. I put usually 6 or so bursts so 12 shots into someone to kill them, and its the most powerful AR. and im saying when the hit register actually shows up for every single burst. Theres been times where i find a stationary sniper and put 3 or 4 full bursts into his HEAD before he dies. So thats 8 headshots. Thats just how this game is, head shots aren't instant kills.blues35301

and you are lying... big time. please...

nobody listen to anything this guy is saying, he is either trolling or a MW2 fanboy....

i kill people with one burst from the M16... and it is FAR less damage than the AN94. M16 fires 3 round bursts..... so please do explain your **** logic?

This is not a lie. This happens to me constantly. Even with a sniper rifle you have to get 2-3 headshots in most cases. It's outright ridiculous. Spewaged

No.

The M24, GOL, and M95 are always 1 shot to the head. No exceptions. Even with body armor. Even at max range, it's always one headshot.

Your bullets are just dropping and hitting them in the body. Those aren't headshots that are registering.

The SV98 is also one headshot if the target is not wearing body armor (most players don't.)

Seems to be fine for me.

And I use SMGs most of the time.

Use the irons and aim for the head.

The SMGs are actually pretty boss and can kill very quickly. Unlocked 'em all, but I think the SCAR-L is still my favorite.

Not that I use SMGs much as Engie. Trying to get the platinum star on my Carl :lol: (I'm at something like 6 gold stars.)

THAT is a total lie.... with the M24, it is one shot to the head for a kill... i have done it countless times. COUNTLESS. with the 50cal sniper it is one shot to the body MOST of the time for a kill as well.

you people are being totally ridiculous and spreading falsities.

I love the sniping in this game, pretty realistic because you need to angle your scope a little higher from the target in order to get a clean kill. Not the usual 'aim exactly at the body' type of sniping.

[QUOTE="morrowindnic"]

[QUOTE="Swiftstrike5"] Not really, you always aim for center of mass and let the recoil shots hit the head. The game was recently updated and has MUCH better/faster hit reg in close quarters. Long range is still iffy, but players are fully capable of killing at range with any weapon in the game. It just takes experience and weapon control. Swiftstrike5

Aiming for the chest and waiting for it to hit the head is:

1. A waste of ammo

2. Gives them the chances to get away.

3. Gives you a greater chance of being spotted.

Aim for the head, or a little above it. 2 shots and they are dead.

Actually I've sniped people from really far away with a pistol quite a few times.

imo its just right.

depending on the gun, yes...it can take more than a few shots. On average, I'd say it takes half a clip to kill someone, less if you get some headshots (yes, that is plural).

Some weapons (like the engineer's submachineguns) take a lot of bullets, while others (the recon's sniper rifles, or shotguns) take one or two shots.

Fortunately, the damage system (the "bleeding" effects) work well, because if you unload, the guy will be close to death for a few seconds which leads to some intense close combat stuff...you get the guy this close to death, run out of ammo, yell "OH SNAP!" then whip out your pistol and doubletap him.

BF: BC2 really is an awesome game.

[QUOTE="dakan45"][QUOTE="Roland123_basic"] uh.... 10 shots for any FPS is far too many shots.... it takes about 4-5 shots with an assault rifle, 5 or so shots with a sub, 2 shots with any sniper other than the 50cal, and 2 or so shots with a shotty.Roland123_basic

I should also add however, that I play Bc2 on PC and MW2 on 360, and I recently heard that BC2 on consoles has an increase in damage by about 25% compared to the PC version... I am not sure if this is the same for MW2 in which case that would definitely explain why I think MW2 is more effective in shot usage...

Lox_Cropek

YES, its a fact that every review I've seen has brought up. There was a huge thread on the beta forums about it when I used to play the beta. The fan boys just don't want to admit it for some reason. If you say otherwise they start attacking you with insults or say you're bad at FPS games.

[QUOTE="Roland123_basic"][QUOTE="dakan45"] Thats way too much for my taste.gamer620

People will complain about it taking too many shots or too little, no matter how its set up.. most people view it like this.. (while they are the ones shooting) it takes too long to kill someone or too many shots... (while they are the ones being shot at) it is way to easy to die.

I personally think the non-hardcore servers in mw1 and 2 are not that fun to me, hardcore is where i play (need some hardcore FFA) seems a little less like bs.

It is preference.. those that say its based on skill and skill alone, you are wrong.. (many things come into factor, especially in games like this)

mice, mousepads, the rig itself, the servers, the latency, the hit-detection on the game itself, etc. there are so many factors.

So to say skill is the only thing that matters is an uneducated and bias statement. (though skill plays a major role)
