Gun shopping by FABIO 08/20/2005, 7:42pm PDT
Seeing as how my second gun unlock will be a LIFELONG COMMITMENT before having to pass this game on to my children, I've been doing some shopping around.


Chart on all the gun stats in the game


I've taken to scavenging every dropped gun kit I can find in hopes of finding an unlocked weapon and trying it out. Even if I'm a medic and see a downed friendly, I'll loot his kit first to see if he has any cool guns before reviving him.



Impressions so far:

M95 barret (sniper unlock): Slightly less accurate than the M24, which can still get a one headshot kill. The only point to the barret is being able to snipe helicopter pilots, and how often is that going to happen? I'd rather stick with the M24, though the M95 is a huge improvement over the worthless chinese and MEC sniper rifles.


G3 (assault unlock): This gun was supposed to give up the grenade launcher and be limited to 20 round clips but be super accurate and damaging. It failed to impress. It wasn't that accurate at all and the damage increase wasn't too noticeble. Not worth giving up the grenade launcher, let alone spending a precious weapon unlock.

G36c (special forces unlock): Now this gun rocks. Smallest accuracy reticle in the game, shrinks to smallest (most accurate) size nearly instantly, good rate of fire, good damage, decent clip size. I'm probably going for this one next. You get kickass anti-personnel and anti-armor/building in one.

PKM (support unlock): Worthless. Even more inaccurate than the other support guns, giving it the practical range of a shotgun. It does 180% the damage of the SAW, but has half the rate of fire. Sooooo....what's the point? Everything this kit can do, the anti-tank unlock can do better. Better anti-vehicle capability, better close quarters fighting with the semi-auto shotgun.
