I use the M-16 with noob tube and danger close, it's great. may be noob but I use it because it's fun as hell lol. Try it. of course I play ground war so people like to bunch up and I get plenty of kills that way.

I frequently use:

M4 + M203
Thumper
Semtex (I should use C4)
Scavenger Pro
Danger Close Pro
Commando Pro

Kinda tempted to use SitRep to see how it feels. Honestly, I do this just to piss people off 🙂

haha I do the same. I use my danger close class on terminal most of the time, but seldom use it on other maps. I will pull it out if the other team is constantly noob tubing. I'll show them how to noob tube lol 🙂

I guess so. AUG reloads, raises and drops faster than the RPD. But it also has less than half the mag capacity. Damage is the same. What about accuracy?

can't tell you lol, I don't look at charts or anything. I'd say it's fairly accurate, with grip and aiming down the sights, I don't use it much so maybe someone else can chime in, I only have that class for the stinger.

nothing wrong with it. it's just that noobs like to spray and pray with it. hell that goes for any LMG.

I guess.

I got called a hacker using it last night after going like 16-8 🙄

its not great on about half the maps due to the close quarters

all the akimob SMG/MP people own you then

RPD is nice, but the AUG HBAR is where it's at. I'd say it's the best LMG.

Personally, I think the MG4 is the best LMG, but that's me. I can wreck with that thing, but I haven't used it since my last prestige and going for challenges. The damage is a bit low, but the lead it puts down fast and accurately is ridiculous.

It takes enough skill to aim it. Honestly, saying someone is a "nub" for using an assault rifle is kind of silly. If they only used something like the RPD or 1887s pre-nerf, then yes, they are noobs. I do better than 95% of the people I play with or against and I use the lowest damage rifle out there (silenced ACR). Weapons are outclassed in this game by tactical advantage 9/10 times.

Since when is using the RPD a noob move?
 
The RPD has no recoil whatsoever. Plus, it is just a pure spray and pray. In fact all LMGs shouldn't have the ability to be shot while not prone. And jumping with it: out of the question.

RPD has always been associated with noobs who can't aim well so they just spray until they can't anymore.
 
i hate this whole noob vs not noob. who cares what gun someone uses.

omg.. just play the game and adapt. if u cant adapt then get over yourself.

they put the gun in there for people to use. if the game is balance then everything is fine.

jesus.

for the noob tubing, I noob tube back 😀, and for the constant marathon/commando/lightweight shit, I kinda just deal with it or pull out my own m/w/l class. It's annoying, it stopped for a while on PSN, I didn't see kids use it much, but now almost every lobby I've played in the last few days has at least one on either team. ugh, at least they fixed the care package glitch.
 
I play PC version and the TAR-21 is amazing! I find that a 2-3 shot burst will take down anyone, no matter the distance. I also get tons of headshots with this thing too. The only thing I don't like is the red dot sight for it. It sucks ass (it's like it's dirty or something), so I use the holo sight.

I use Tar-21 with stopping power pro, ninja pro, and scavenger pro.

Scavenger is essential imo. getting refills on ammo, flash/stun nades, m203 nades, and sticky/regular nades is just insane.

yeah I found they hate getting killed by the g18/p90 etc
 
Ok so I spent some time with the TAR tonight.

Definitely a helluva weapon. Actually managed to get my first 9+ (hell 7+ for that matter) killstreak ever with this thing on sub base.

Hit 5 kills - called in a predator, killed 2 with that called in harrier. Killed 2 more guys and called in pavelow. Pavelow and harrier mopped up and won the game for my team.

Ahh it felt so good!!


I may be sticking with the TAR but it does take getting used as it is way more sensitive than the Scar (ie I tend to miss more as it moves and pans a lot faster than the Scar does -- at least to me).

My fav assault rifles are -

Scar-H w/Extended Mags
Tar-21 w/Holographic Sight
FAL w/Holographic Sight + Silencer (Bling)
M16 w/Holographic Sight

I can't pick an absolute fav but those are my tops. With the FAL, the gun requires both those attachments to be of any value to me, but with them it rocks. 2 hit kill at any range w/stopping power.
 
Hi I just joined, and so my comments are pretty late; but you did pose a question whether the M16 or TAR21 is better than the other one. True the M16 is a venerable weapon and has been in use since it first came out for use by the GI's in 1971; however the IDF, you know those folks who have been fighting the Arabs, and everyone else in the desert have used the M16/M4 platforms for a long time, have now gone to the TAR21.

But the question I do pose to you is this. What difference does it make if the M16 or TAR21 is better than the other one; especially in an AIRSOFT game? Every one of these rifles is a copy of a real steel one, and have a max range of between 400-800 meters. But with airsoft battles in close proximity of less than 300 yards or less, does it really matter to an airsofter whether the M16 is better? I've used M4/M16/AK74,MP5 all with good success, so my answer is this. If I was going to put down an airsofter for good, I'd use one that will do the job. Oh thank you for listening....

You are like the unicorn of the internet. Randomly appear out of no where for no reason and disappear after without a trace. You exist in the past, where this thread was and should have stayed. You don't even exist in the same context, since this was a thread about a now dead video game and your response was about air soft(this is a video game forum). You are a myth that doesn't make sense.

At least he's not a bot. Necro threads are a decent way to start out. But yeah, people stopped playing mw2 a while back.
