Don't have the AN-94, but the M16A4 is burst or semi-auto only. I didn't use it much but you'd think it would be more accurate or powerful if it has no full auto.

I can't wait for the An-94, love it in BFBC2.
It's not like I just one day DECIDED to play Terran. I was born that way, and there isn't one thing I or anybody else can do about it.

AN94 is probably the best assault rifle at long range, but it just cant compare with the rate of fire of the AEK-971 at short/middle range, where most of your fights will be.

AEK-971 is such a beast. Still feels decent at range with ironsights, hard to control with any sort of scope and the kobra RDS kinda makes it feel less accurate for some reason. At close range its incredible, but i find myself short when i run into a bunch in a corridor because the fire rate is so retardedly fast. tempted to go back to the m416 until i unlock the m16a4

Care to elaborate a bit? What game mode you play, what class, previous FPS history and everything.


Since I have basically the same question as him (any tips for starters^^):
CS 10 years ago, some Q3 around that time as well (sometimes on LANs after that), after that only ET and lately (~half a year) some TF2 with RL friends.

Class - probably all, I think I will focus on support when I'm with friends and assault/engi/recon if I play alone.

My problem is I'm a bit overwhelmed with the amount of weapons. They all feel very similiar to me (well the standard groups assault / mg / pistol / sniper / shotgun / ...) and I'm wondering are they balanced or are some just "better".

Also I'm interested in vehicles What's my fucking job, when I drive a tank / fly a jet / heli?
Just flying/driving around and killing stuff seems not really benefitial to the team. (I assume buggys are just to get to points of the map faster).

+ Show Spoiler +

Weapons right now are fairly similar. What i have read, there isn't many (or any) weapons that are far more powerful than others. Just use what ever you feel best, won't really matter. Except snipers..

Your job with the vehicles are pretty much destroying as much as you can, hold/defend "bombsite"/conquest flag. You should be shooting pretty much everything that moves with a tank. Helis pretty much the same but they are fantastic for picking out tanks. Jets are far more Air vs Air than helis, but you can still try to destroy vehicles and such with them too. You can't do much with air vehicles than clear the sky, possible ground vehicles and defend what you have to.

General tips for someone who has a CoD/CS background would be to take it slower. You don't need to rush somewhere and just shoot while running - that won't work. Stay with your squad, help teammates by giving them supplies (medic, support), always use your RPG/other rocket launcher to destroy tanks/vehicles etc. And of course depending what game mode you play - do what you are supposed to do. Don't just sit in a hill and snipe there, cap/defend points/flags/bombs.

As i said earlier, Medic is very good to start with. Easy, helpful and you get lots of points rather easily. But play whatever you like.


Thanks!
And I'd consider medic, but 2 of my friends want to play medic only and I think some diversity is best

Question would a GTX 460 and Phenom II X4 955 with 2 gig ram run this very well? Anyone else have a similar rig ?

I'm running the 460 with an Intel i5 at 2.8Ghz. It can run it fine on high settings but it does get pretty hot in there, i wouldn't recommend gaming for like 5 hours straight. I usually hit mid 60*C on the CPU and 80*C on the card.

Edit: and ya, you'll definitely need more RAM, 4 is minimum but 8 would be better.

You can see it's weekend: 80% of your team consists of people who don't care about the objectives, let alone team play and spotting. Kind of the same as with SC2: the chance of getting cheesed during the weekend is at least three times higher than during the week.

There were a lot of trolls spouting racial slurs earlier when we were kickstarting the server.

The 2gb if RAM will cripple you. I have a nearly identical system but with more RAM.

GTX 460 1GB @ 810/1002
Phenom II X4 940 @ 3.5
4GB DDR2

Runs great on High settings. I start to run out of memory on Ultra, however. I'm still rocking 32-bit so I actually have a few hundred megs less than 4GB.
