AWS < MG4

Ace 23 (my number one gun - been experimenting with others and like the m416, l85a2, scar h, and I've been slowly trying out others. Ace 23 is not OP just overused like AWS)

SRR or M98 -recon

Mtar < acw-r (I'd prefer the ak5c or ace52 cqb)

 

Just my personal preference and opinions and not a bad list mouse. I see you play support a lot mouse and I think you'd enjoy the MG4 more. Put a coyote, laser sight, no barrel attachment or suppressor, stubby and you will be a man upon boys. The thing is like a laser beam and will shred most infantry. Also gives you more suppression against enemies then the AWS assault rifle model. The tap fire on that bad boy is amazing.

Not the Ace 23, the AWS or the MTAR for sure.

 

Those guns, they're the best in their class for pretty much every map. They have too little recoil, not enough spread, too high a rate of fire and too short a time to kill to be any challenge. I get 6 kills in one clip with an AWS, that doesn't make me feel like I did something special - with that gun, you don't NEED to do very good for that sort of slaughter. The ACE-23 is effectively an "I win" button for infantry fights - unless pointblank versus a shotgun or over 150 meters versus a DMR or bolt action. So 90% of the time, you have the upper hand simply by the gun you're using.

I don't like that feeling. I didn't play with the m16 in BF3 because of it and I won't use those guns in BF4 beyond needing to unlock all the toys for them.

 

So my favorite weapons are the ones that are only good if you play to their strengths and work around the weaknesses.

 

On my list would be the M60. Slow firing, inaccurate at full-auto and absurdly unlikely to hit stuff on the move, it forces you to play more tactically, more carefully, and one step slower than your enemy to ensure you're in a good position to surprise them and to get your gun talking at the perfect time. It makes finding a good defensive position or flanking stealthily a priority, because if you just run around a corner and start firing at some guy with another gun, he's going to win that fight despite the advantage of surprise. And yet, my kills per minute with this gun are higher than pretty much anything else.

 

If you can't use the M60, or want something more run-and-gun, I am right now using the SG553 carbine, which though low damage is pretty easy to keep on target. You won't win a head-to-head with it, but you can use it over a fair distance at decent firing rates, making your victim suppressed, wounded, and then dead, without them ever getting a chance to get a good shot off themselves.

 

If long range won't do, or you're playing Assault, I like the FAMAS for it's insane one-second mag dump. 1000 rpm so you don't so much aim this thing as you point and spray. It's not much good for groups and it's absolutely shit at range, but unless you've got some guy with a shotgun against you, you're winning the face-off stuff. Run and gun works well with this, despite being out of ammo all the damn time.

 

The DMRs have their uses, especially if you're a crap sniper like me, and I prefer the M39 for being decently capable of putting your bullets where your aim is at range while on the move. Fire a little slower than the maximum firing speed and you've got a very decent sniper rifle in your hands with this. Again, don't face off with people - shoot them in the ass, hit them from the flanks or keep them at a distance to take advantage of the DMR, or you die.

 

And, because we can't always be bothered to play for keeps: the USAS shotgun, with explosive shells. If you need to ask why a rapid firing, full auto shotgun with explosive ammunition is good, even though you will likely need 6 or 7 hits to down a player, you and I are never going to see eye to eye on this "favorite weapon" thing. When there's no USAS to be had, the DBV12 takes its place.

 

But by far and away, with hands down no contest, the weapon everybody should bow down to is C4. Stick it on a car, stick it on a ceiling, stick it to a wall and stick it under bushes, then BOOM. Stick it on someone's tank, then hit that with a shotgun with slugs or explosive shells. Or a hand grenade, or a flash bang grenade. Snipe the C4 bricks you stuck on a wall and watch as people ragequit because you blowing up their vehicle with a sniper rifle MUST be a hack. Go into pistol-only servers, deck the halls with boughs of C4, lalala, then hit it with the Rex when someone shows up for the fireball from Hell that takes your opponents component parts and smears them across four surfaces, leaving them with a killcard saying they got shot with a handgun. There is no better way to troll, and I prefer it over RPGs for taking out vehicles quickly.

I usually use the 2x magnifier for distance shots, but i may switch back over to a laser site. I'll have to try out the MG4 again. Once I got the AWS I havent used any other LMGs.

 

I have been running with an angled grip. I tried the stubby, but I think I am already used to the responsiveness of the angled so i need to retrain my hand lol.

@ducky those guns are well rounded but by no means op. They are extremely overused but not the best.

 

I'm with you though I do want to try out the "pig" some more and c4 trolling is awesome.

You mainly run and gun so the magnifier use is pretty nill. Angled or folding is awesome but if you do a lot of run and gun stubby is more suited. The superiority of the MG4 is quite astonishing and if you control that tap fire you will think about why you didn't use it more often. (The superiority ofc is mag size, suppression, range, muzzle velocity I believe but not entirely sure).

Simple for me, C4...I'm the biggest C4 whore there is and proud of it!  I've pissed more people off by "jihading" with every vehicle on the game that it's now "my crack" as Ozzie says.  Can't be beat.  :)

I didn't say they were OP, but given that they're always a good choice, and in many cases the best choice, for most maps, they still have the "easy-mode" problem that the m16a3 had in BF3. I just can't enjoy playing with them, because I know that when I play well with them, it's down to the gun.

I have tried several guns and I enjoy the AWS, ACE 23, MG4, DBV-12, M240B and the F2000. I also recently started running with the ACW-R. I also love C4 and there are loads of maps that I will spend half the round loading up a jeep or bike to blow something up. It may not make for much of a good K/D, but it sure is fun.

 

I also tend to be more run and gun or kamikaze while trying to PTFO.  :cheers:

I must say though - the AR160 with an angled grip and red dot is a monster. So controllable and accurate, and high round speed.

So far.....

 

Assault - SCAR H - good tap fire

Engineer - ACE 52 CQB - set up for high hip fire (heavy barrer, tridot laser, any grip that gives hip fire accuracy, 3.4 sight for mid range tap fire)

Recon - Aggressive recon - M98B (Flir 2x, 14x zoom optic, Silencer or muzzle brake) or Rage quitter long range trolololol heli pilots - SR338 (14x zoom optic, 40x scope, bipod, muzzle brake)

Assault = AEK

Engi = ACE 52 CQB

Support = MG4 (for the bigger magazine box)

Recon = SRR-61, but I've been using the GOL Magnum a lot more recently.

Lately I've been using the ACE23 Assult / AKU12 Carbine / AWS support. I don't snipe mostly because of my playstyle and/or I suck at it. I used to roll with the SCAR's and the ACE52 but found that I'm a little too aggressive to really take advantage of their high damage output. It seems using a well rounded and stable gun works the best? Weird.

I used the AUG for a little bit and it's a pretty decent gun. 

 

I just use the suppressed AEK more because it wins firefights more often than not.
