i think im gonna stop with the support (stock guns r good enough to me) and im gonna start recon and get the Lambert....im ready for a change from my old sniping in BF2
You do need sprint, no matter how you play. It is the best unlock.elite3444 wrote:
I WILL NOT!!! I REPEAT WILL NOT!!! GET THE CLARK!!!! I DO NOT LIKE SHOTGUNS.....
after yelling what i have is//// Grenade (dont really need sprint how i play) up to Baur, shock paddle, and EMP grenade in support...my plan is to go for the Ganz HMG
how good is recon?? in BF2 i was awesome at sniping but i dont really like it in 2142...should i get Lambert?
For what it is worth...
The stock recon weapon is a sniper rifle. You will have more fun with that class when you unlock the Lambert.

ok i ranked to LCG and i got Demopack and im gonna go for lambert...i dont want sprint because if i need it that bad ill take off my heavy armor
A Recon without Sprint ?! BLASPHEMY !!
Yeah, worry about the sprint upgrades and certain things like Defibs and Demo Packs (that just belong to their respective classes) first.
Don't bother with the Zeller, everyone hears you and it's a piece of shit anyway.
Don't bother with the Ganz either. IDS infantry sonar is okay, I personally prefer the Heartbeat Scanner as I move around a lot. That and the sentry gun, and a stock LMG.
Don't get the Voss, get the Baur. If you get the Voss you'll be tagged forever as a noob. Defibs and rockets are the jackpot combo.
Have fun.

The Clark sucks tbh, especially in Titans cause the hitreg and framerates are so crappy._-_911_-_180891 wrote:

The Baur is my favorite gun, very high damage and good accuracy. If you would like to keep people at a distance as Assault, I recommend going up this tree. This is the only gun I use for assault now, and I've had quite a bit of success with it.
And as everyone has said, the main player unlocks are probably the best and most essential.

i dunno whats so great about that voss...i have baur and even before i had it the voss was just like a P90 or something it sprays!!! i OWN with the Baur but if i have a Voss it feels like it doesnt hit
look, im a recon moose, YOU DONT RUN MUCH WITH RECON, you find a spot, you then kill 2 not 1, 2 people then move, dont move far but dont stay in the same place, go as far as the basic sprint will take you (also never take off heavy armour not needed
Recon isn't only about sniping ; Lambert tree makes recon awesome cqb specialist . Even if I snipe ( which is very rare ) I move all the time . Movement = and you're alive . Camping = insta death , if enemy has atleast one skilled assault\reconSniper-UK-Ghost wrote:

Well If you play as support alot maybe you should keep going in the direction of the Baur H-AR (thats my favorite gun)
however if you havent unlocked the FRG-1 Grenade thats an excellent choice.

If you're gonna focus on playing a single tree first , then go straight for the class unlocks (you'll be promoted real quick early on anyway) and then go for the Player Abilities like Grenades or Sprint upgrades.
Well, going back to the original inquiry...
Having scored more kills with the Assault kit than with any other, when picking between the Voss and the Baur for an upgrade, I'd have to recommend...neither of them. The Baur has incredible shot power, but jumps higher than a kangaroo; the Voss is accurate at a standstill, but has rather little stopping power. I believe the faction rifles have the best blend of accuracy (even when moving, to an extent), shot power, clip size, and number of clips (for when you just can't find an ammo caddy). But hey, if you can overcome the Baur's jumpiness or the Voss's lack of Oomph, kudos.

i disagree, i think the voss has immense stopping powerThothexy wrote:

ZELLER H- ADVANCED SNIPER RIFLE... that is one unlock i would go for....
yes you only get 3 rounds per clip... and the scope can use a painjob.....but having your health down to 10 or even being killed by a zeller chest shot is very nasty..
people complain about the 3 round clip... i dont complain about the baur being 20 rounds per clip when the voss has 40 rounds per clip...and i love the baur H Assault rifle a lot.
the zeller has amazing stopping power and laser pinpoint accuracy.... does 90 -100 points of damage per bullet.... but dont use the zeller if you cant aim or snipe..
your stock rifles give off a certain sound ( moretti SR4 or Park 52).. if everyone uses a zeller, its hard to diffrenciate what side the zeller user is on .. PAC or EU..

The Zeller is an awesome Sniper Rifle which is balanced out with a bad scope and low shots per clip. Not only does it have the potential to 1 hit KO with a chest shot , it's also capable of blowing up explosives !!
It doesn't matter. Anyone can pick up a kit belonging to the other team. You differentiate betw a friendly or foe by looking at the mini-map and where the shot comes from...not the type of sound.thebestshooter wrote:

The only useful thing a zeller does, is that it takes out mines, etc. But APM are usually hidden around a corner, so you wun know till you die from it. Players don't really put RDX around a flag that much, plus its not that different to find a position not covered by the RDX. So that leaves motion mines, which with the introduction of the Bait... leaves the Zeller pretty much useless... to me.
2 words: bullet trails. You can easily pin point where the shooter is from the bullet trails of the Zeller-H. This is the major reason I don't use it.lobo76 wrote:

dude is saying that Bullet trials... you know when a round goes off leaves the sniper barrell...looks like a line or a comet. ive have seen bullet trails from a zeller...but i have also seen muzzleflashes from a park or moretti.Sniper-UK-Ghost wrote:

Yup that's what I'm talking about. With the Park and Moretti, you have to look at the guy to see the muzzleflash, makes it harder to pin point. With the Zeller-H, you see the trail and gives you an idea where the sniper is. Can't count the number of time I snipe back a sniper using the Zeller-H because I could easily find him from the trails he is leaving behind. And the Zeller-H sounds much louder too, also helps to know where the sniper is.thebestshooter wrote:

I'm in the top 15 in Canada with both the Morretti and Park and top 300 in the world.... I think I know what I'm talking about
PS.: if you don't see the trails, your settings are just too low.

I'm in the same boat as the OP'er.
Also is there anywhere I can view my stats and updates?

small country small sample size.
never really noticed the trails unless i was the one firing. Probably coz no one really uses the Zeller anymore in my area of the world.
