Maybe it's just me but it seems like anyone hardly drops ammo/health and not that many revive when you die.

How are you guys playing more than 30min at a time? No one in group i play with can even play for the last week because of constant disconnects.
Maybe we're lucky, but it's not happening for a lot of people. In fact, I put up a pretty respectable score last night playing game after game totally drunk...

AK74M/M16A3 are the best guns in the game if you ask me. 0 recoil and they kill quick.
May seem strange, but I haven't used them yet. When I started with Assault I used the M1014 until I got the M416. I dont like the faction specific guns, as unlocks on them are useless when you are on the other faction.

That is my favorite gun in the whole game too... planning to use it primarily once I unlock all the other weapons for other classes... in terms of RPM, Range, and Accuracy I think it's much better the m16a3 and AN-94... and I'm praying they don't nerf it by the time I get back to it...

AN-94 was my favorite in BFBC2. I'm looking forward to it.

Maybe it's just me but it seems like anyone hardly drops ammo/health and not that many revive when you die.

It could be because they paired the ammo pack with lmgs with 200 round clip. The only time most support guys drop a pack is when they need ammo. At least with BFBC2 the assault class had guns with small clips and less overall ammo, so they dropped them all the time. And in BFBC2 I used to be a reviving savant, but now it seems to just get me killed. I only do it when the ticket count is low or its a squad member, or I am sure no one is around.

A big thread on it, but nothing from dice for a whole week seems odd.

I still get dropped and/or the game crashes. I just hop back on. It does seem to be a little bit better after the last server update.

I just got MVP in a 64 player server. yay.

As for ammo drops, I do it all the time. I have the extended mag on my M249 and, honestly, I just spam. Set it up on a ledge, throw an ammo box next to me, and just mow down. I get tons of kill assists and suppression assists

I learned my lesson from BFBC2 not to be a rambo medic... so I make sure I clear the area first before reviving - but by that time it is usually too late...

Just stick near me on the AT server, I spam ammo boxes like you would not believe. I had the 50 resupply ribbon medal before I even hit 10 hours in game, and that was with the first 5 hours being almost entirely engineer. I'm up to around 90 ribbons now for it, nothing I like better then tossing a box of ammo amongst squad mates.

I'm getting into other kits as well but I keep coming back to support. I love the M249 and I like being a help to the team, or at least feeling like it. I place my claymores around any doors behind me and drop ammo like an animal

As for the medic thing, that's the price we pay for having assault choose between grenade launcher and health.

It's not really any different than having separate medic and assault classes, other than causing confusion about who can actually heal you.

Anyone else getting better at dealing with the negative mouse acceleration? It's still there and still sucks, but my accuracy is returning. I was like 35% accurate in the beta and last time I checked I'm around 20% now.

I just remember being able to completely dominate the outdoor part of operation metro with the m40a3. The mouse input was so good in the beta. Hope they fix it soon.

Mouse input in beta was perfect. I have no idea why they put in two sensitivity settings.

The labeling doesnt really make sense. One says mouse the other says soldier movement..

No it doesn't, but I realized that the bottom one changed the sensitivity of my 360 pad because I had it set so low the joysticks did nothing. Turning that bottom slider up fixed it.

Does a tank get a perk where you can drive over mines? I saw one guy in a tank drive over all my mines and when he did, my mines disappeared.
