BF1942 Desert Combat

The iraqis also get better RPGs. The coalition one has notches for distance but the iraqi one has a narrowing thing on it to help determine how far away the tank is. I really like the iraqi RPG.
it's strange the things I've been noticing for the last couple of weeks
The shika can take any allied copter down in 2 to 4 seconds (even the big transport gun helo, I can plant the shika on the west arm of guadalcanal and can take out every helo launching off the carrier before it even gets close to land), and the allies aa takes forever (both mobile and ground based).
The t-74 can take 4 direct hits from the abrams before meltdown, while the abrams can only take 2 before meltdown, 3 to explode and the abrams fires slower. The only way one abrams can go up against a t-74 is to drive around back of it and stay directly behind it so the t-74 can't turn his turret around and shoot you. (I even saw 3 abrams go up against 1 t74 and the t74 was getting pounded and still killed all 3...I snuck in close to him while he fought the others and blew his ass up with an ex-pack though
)
The allied attack copter can be brought down by a single stinger, it takes 2-3 to take out the scorpion attack copter.
The scorpions machine guns can take out armor, but the allies attack copter doesn't even dent it.
The allies sniper can't hit sh!t I don't know how many rounds where I hit dead center on the scope and it misses. (and I'm a crack shot with a sniper in the regular bf1942, and as an iraqi)
I agree on the assault troop bit, I've gotten where I won't use allies assault I use special ops, just because it fires fast enough and tight enough to kill as fast as the AK.
I didn't start noticing this until some of the allied guys where b!tching about not winning (I thought they where just whiners at first), I had been using iraqi troops since .6 since few people could fly the attack copter worth a flip. then I switched to using allies and have noticed they seem to get wooped at least 1 out of every 20 games.

Interesting feedback, maybe it's just the servers I visit. I don't join servers with less than 28 players active, there is too many servers running huge maps with too few people in them. and I prefer wide open maps like el alemein, and no fly zone (wish more maps would put no fly zone into thier rotation) that map is extremely even weapons wise, it always has close finishes.
Thanks for the responses guys/gals.

hahahaha, awesome point :beer:
yeah i've noticed also. some of the armor in some maps are unbalanced as well. in gazala for instance. the iraqi base get 2 tanks that respawn whereas the coalition base only gets 1 tank. in el alamein, the iraqis get 3 respawning tanks vs. 2 coaltions tanks. in general, the iraqi armor can withstand much more damage than allied armor. and don't forget the the iraqis get the worst weapon of all: the damn scud!! lol!

Considering those are real men and women being killed over there I guess I fail to see the humor.

I also failed to see the humor in it; of course, I'm one of the few conservatives who also failed to see the humor in "Bring it on!"
