That also means a huge crapload of kids that think Recon means they're a sniper and camp on a rooftop all day shooting everything that moves with no incentive whatsoever to get a flag, spot enemies or take out vehicles and complain about being in a "omg noob team" when they keep losing.
Sniping is hard on this. It really is nothing like CoD 4. I was probably shooting a man 500m away with him exactly on the center of the scope and I didn't even skim him once. I now understand bullet drop and need to compensate for it.
MINIz guy11 is my other name for an engineer guy. Much easier to spray and pray than have actual precision.
Then I might as well say that it's much easier to stay out of the battle zone, outside the range of enemy weapons. And we all know spraying an assault rifle is suicide; if you're not accurate enough, your enemy will be.
Truth is, all classes are powerful, as long as they're not used to get a high K/D (worthless), but to own the bases and suppress the enemy's chances (goal).
If I'm doing my best deep inside the combat zone spotting enemies, laying down suppressive fire if my buddies are making a move, going around corners to flank strongholds and infiltrating enemy bases so that the team can win while they just stand there doing jack shit, I'm annoyed.
Granted, most Recon do utilize strategy when picking targets and some of them even move in on enemy bases, so it's just a minority of useless dickheads.
Haha, wish I had FRAPS running. I flew a Heli into D on the Oman map and bailed out above the building...went to deploy the parachute but ended up surfing on my own helicopter, which then landed on 3 people, I got a triple kill and then it blew up and took me with it.
If they would of told everyone after the closed beta you would only be able to make 2 soldiers...
Cause now I'm stuck with medic and recon... i want assault and engineer
