Ironsights

Nvm. lets say its hard to control…

Edit: Didnt mean it literally. But if you only got this kind of vertical recoil every weapon would pretty much the same and would be damn easy to control.

Out of interest, what weapons and classes do you all use the most?

(Maca) #23

I love to lemming so most often roll engy. Then medic or fops, and recently more assault for c4.
But I never choose what I want to play based on what weapons they have, so my view might be irrelevant for this conversation.

Previous Patches: I used to play Engineer fulltime on offense and defense.

Lastest Patch: I play Engineer but I switch to other classes since the Engineer is not required as much and the shotgun has been nerfed(almost too much I’d say) and not really effective for anything but map objectives.

[li]Play Medic on pubs because there is no loss of ammo.[/li][li]Play Soldier when trying to break through a heavy-camp spot.[/li][li]Play Field Ops to disable EV on defense then suicide and switch back to a more utility based team class, ie; Medic.[/li][li]Play Sniper for fun when not concerned with beating objectives.[/li][/ol]

Vassily, medic, fops, in that order…

(Dthy) #26

Medic > F.ops > Sniper

(montheponies) #27

Medic / Soldier / Eng / LT / Sniper in that order.

Biggest grind against ironsights for me is that they block half the screen, well, half of the important part. A red dot sight might improve that.
Only use them when i need to shoot very far and even then i need to burst 1-2 bullet at a time.

Mostly play medic/covie, seldom soldier when it comes to meatgrind and obj pushes.

If I want to win? Soldier>FOPS>medic. Weapon wise soldier gun2 or current fops rifle.

My personal preference of class order would be: (Most used) Medic > Covie > Fops > Soldier > Engi (least used)

My percieved view on strength of weapons for each class would be: (Strongest) Fops > Soldier > Covie > Medic > Shotgun Engineer (Weakest)

+1 for no recoil on all weapons except for sniper. Compensate with spread.

Give me shoot from the hip with no recoil and I’d be in (ET) heaven and DB would be my new game!

(Humate) #32

Fops / Sniper / Soldier / Medic (in that order)

(Hundopercent) #33

Medic > Soldier > Sniper

(j4b) #34

i try to Change my class day by day so i can get a fealing of every class and weapon.
prefered order so far: LT, Medic, Soldier, Engi, Covert

Try to play F/Ops or Medic, but often find myself having to go Engy or Soldier just to get the objectives done. Don’t mind playing Soldier as he’s effectively got 2 primaries, but hate playing Engie cos I can’t use the Shotgun to save my life. Quite enjoyed Engie when he had an SMG.

Somebody forgot his Echo login :rolleyes:

Probably Medic SMG, Fdops AR, then depending on team needs, either Engi shotgun or Soldier LMG. Apart from the Fdops AR, I hardly use IS for anything and in the case of FDOPS it’s mostly to discipline my mid-long shooting a bit, but I reckon that has more to do with the slight zoom than anything else. A common situation is to “snipe” the enemy manning that machinegun looking into the attacker spawn on first phase Victoria.

Along with the gun rattle while in IS, the size of the current sights makes it pretty difficult to actually use it consistently, at least for me. Actually the only situation where i use IS almost “all the time” is the mounted gun on the EV.

(Bangtastic) #37

since last patch medic, soldier, engy most used

(luQx) #38

Thread bombing level: developer ;x

medic > engi soldier if needed

(MrEd) #39

Unfortunately Echo doesn’t tell me which guns everyone’s talking about on here :wink:

Engineeresses for the mines & turrets, but i prefer soldier guns for pew pew.
