Discussion thread for Assault Class, share your thoughts!

I'm currently still stick with F2000, no idea which weapon is better than this one.

Most of the time I heal and revive soldiers around me, check out my heal score.

I think weapon are not really important, till now i'm still using M416 as the recoil are not high, very easy to control. Most of the time staying at the front line with medipack healing me.

+1 im using it too atm..

defib can kill ppl?how?

M416 is better than F2000?

backjolt. Does not seem to work from the front

assault class are special yet common in battlefield 3
in my opinion
many thought that support class will give better supression but at the same time
carrying those LMG aren't easy either

if you are equipped with
M16A3/AEK-971/AK-74M
try to shoot at enemy location to assist your team
you will see that it have same effect for awhile which is enough

having M320 as underslug also help alot as you fightning in tight corner(never use this though)

weapon like AN-94/F2000 and M416 is firepower > rapid fire
but sadly people tends to use this to camp more
not only easy to aim but have stopping power
eventhough assault is medic
they have to advance first because their weapon is the most stable then other class
even engineer M14A1 and AKS-74u isn't on par with M16A3/AK-47M on accuracy issue


there are also issue with attachment
which many prefer grib/heavy barrel/4xscope(or 3.4)
they tends to be multipurpose player
long range/short range/accuracy

RDS/Holographic is some vets favourite scope which offer fast aim in combat with nice barrel aim


this is what i think of assault class

i use holo on all my gun, the best scope for me, even better than rds

Awesome sharing, like it.

I like one thing about AEK-971 which it able to fires very quick.

F2000 has a lot of firing damage, but recoil wise, so-so.

AN-94 is firing two bullets at a time, not really suitable for me...

err you can switch it to auto by clicking default button V
but i warn ya
beginner going to with that baby recoil

Yeah I know about button V, but for AN-94, maximum only 2-dots. If suddenly an enemy appear in front of you, you will need to click spam your mouse instead of holding on it.

I am used to that since the engy M14A is that mode. Only spray and pray if lot of enemies lol

My fav weapon, F2000 so far with very minimal recoil with the fore grip attached. Spam med kit and revive ppl. i mainly use KOBRA or IRNV scope, depending on situation.

i prefer M416 + IRNV as ez to spot enemy... as some dark place or those place tat camo...

hurm....interesting...
want to see you handling F200 sometimes

Come aussie server

I prefer RDS tho, faster scoping than holo, and the holo pointer is a bit distracting, can't find enemy with it :S lol

Changed to M416 today, fall love on it.

AN94 feels powerful and fires like LMG at fully auto and like LMG the rate of fire is slow, unless you use burst mode.
AEK, felt funny in the beta, so i never bothered to use it so far.
F2000 has the highest rate of fire, again something i dont like cos its hard to conserve ammo, usually 1 clip at fully auto kill roughly 2 ppl due to it blazing thru the ammo real fast.
M416 and M16A3 are the most balanced ones, from stopping power to conserving ammo, usually 1 clip can kill 3-4 ppl since its easier to control the ammo at fully auto.

all my assault rifles always with foregrip and heavy barrel.
scope depends on the rifle and map, some rifle easier with kobra, some with rds, some with holo, so depends.
but they all share the irnv in common when i feel like it.

I'm about the same with you, never use grenade launcher.

Anyway I have no idea why I can't control well with scope, I prefer assault rifle without scope. Maybe I'm used to play a lot in Call of Duty, which I never use scope for rifle at all.

i only use scope for medium to far enemy that I kill with controlled burst. Close quarter I rarely/never use the scope since the crosshair is more than enough. The 4x scope is the most comfortable for me, not too much magnification but still good for me to be accurate

i like assault, in fact i use assault in every match. becoz
shooting >low health >find cover >throw medic kit >regain health >keep shooting

Let's just say after the nonsense of bad companies series (both of them) I'm glad that the medikit is now back with the assault class in its rightful place.

well, M416 is my love,
equip it with foregrip and heavy barrel.
scope wise, based on the map.
if the fog concentration is a lot like He**, i'll be using IRNV,
if not ACOG is my default.

OEC88!!!!!medic whore hahahaha!!

zefarius here hehehe.

HAHAHA WHY CALL ME A MEDIC WHORE!?!?

hai oec
hows your BS in UB doing

Assault is the most versatile class among the four. You can flank, suppress, revive and heal. Its biggest shortcoming is its lack of power against vehicles. I'll be the first to run when a tank approaches.

doesnt matter, cos there will be 38910 other engineers with rockets in ur team of 16.

assault FTW!!! still using AEK not bad for long range burst !

Yeah, rpg spamfest in Bazaar Rush.

EDIT: But most of the time they aim at infantries instead of vehicles, oh well...

and i got stupid idiotic gunners who enter my tank and fire at enemy tanks with the MG, revealing my position when i'm trying to sneak to the back for easy kill.

AN94 is really under power. M416 and M16 are my best weapon. i feel engineer got all the good weapon compared to assault class.

Can't believe that someone still recall my old character.

Anyway, no off topic please.

trying to get area behind the tanks are sometimes useless if the enemy have radar
i don't remember what its name
but it use to detect anything close to you
like god save em support class with C4


i like the Coxial Heavy Machine Gun then Light Machine Gun
lower firing rate
but have high damage

Still using F2000, less recoil and fast firing rate. When silent rushing, I always equipped IRNV + silencer. You lose range accuracy but enemies don't hear/see what hit them. AEK recoils too much, shame since it's my fav gun in BC2.

Still can't figure out how to properly use AN94. This gun's underwhelming and I rarely get good kills with this gun. Also they need to put auto mode on default instead of 2-burst mode.

Assault class is more all-round with the noob-tube. It can do some dmg against vehicles if fired at it's back. Consider another med bag Medic for maximum effect

i like AEK yo,feel powerfull when at near distance,its very pain

I still want my old M416 from beta that has laser, holo and front grip.

The one I have now sucks. Acog is quite crappy at close range.

Engineers weapons are awesome though. Not sure what dice is doing.

yeah this morning I do tanking, when 6 rocketers + 1 tank against me + Iam medic. woah.......

BF3WDB

Assault's weapons are mostly the same damage wise, but somehow engy's SCAR-H has higher damage than all other guns.

Retail m416 have none of those attachments? I ran most of my guns with iron sights..

still testing out after all weapon unlock then i tell..

when playing sudden attack,famas F1 was my top fav

lets see if bf3 famas are really suits me not?

But engy are limited to carbines right? Depends on your preferences imo. I prefer Assault"s rifles as I feel they are more accurate

Nope, i just havent unlock yet.

Gawd, i want the BC2 unlock system back.

I hate unlocking attachments for each gun separately.

anyone know how to set AN-94 default fire mode from short burst to fully auto ?
it is annoying when you need to remember change to fully auto when respawn

press v dude

i know how to press v =.=....

just that everytime respawn, the fire mode will auto back to burst default

Ahhhh.. Which weapon less recoil? Base on the table I can see no different.
So less recoil or higher shooting speed win the assaulth weapon

Instead of looking which is better to spray rather change how you shoot. Grip is a good addon as well

For me is AEK-971 ( Holo, Foregrip & Laser Sight)

no possible way.
an-94 works better in burst mode, faster rate of fire.
not sure exactly what it is in-game, but if follow real life its 3x faster than fully auto, so 1800rpm.

Current Assault Build,

IRV scope, hand grip, Heavy Barell

mind sharing the best combo for M416
I currently used it with foregrip + holographic + laser sight

IRNV + foregrip + heavy barrel

tq bro...gonna try it right now

Its not possible because DICE wants me to sit through a few hours using that gun with no grip.

BF3 has the stupidest unlock system.

its smart way for DICE to force players to spend more hours of torture to slowly grind your way up.

and the game has huge balance issues, especially higher rank players vs lower rank players.

Depending on personal preference

I'm more of a M416 Guy like cheesy here , and the AEK when on the russian side

Even lower rank also can pawn higher rank like crazy, depend on their skill.

Any other An94 users here?

finally unlock my desired weapon..F2000

^

I think that F2000 is on more or less similar to AEK both their fire rate is f***ing hell.

F2000 with IRVN+grip is really powerful man for cqb....feels like OP already lol u can control your burst easily.

me, when i feel like using it

I am not sure what he mean balance, but I often see good people stacking on 1 side a lot of the time not due they want, but its the game itself doesnt auto-balance.

even if u group base on squads, a lot of time the best and the second best squad stack on same team. lol. Sometimes even 3 best squad stack on same team.

dunno if u realise, but if u click join game beside ur friend's nick in battlelog, u will be put in the same squad as him once u join in-game, provided the squad has space.

imo, good players are those who take the initiative to attack / defend etc.
sure everyone can shoot, but how many actually go out of their way to attack / defend flags / mcoms etc and most likely end up winning?

i still see flags getting capped by enemy, and got like 5-6 friendlies around the flag just camping like nothing is happening...

well, people are farming K/D ratio thats why. K/D need to go, I dont understand why DICE want to CoDfied Battlefield 3

cos its a FPS, again its not the sims
those who say k/d ratio is the one and only thing, obviously have the wrong idea about the game.
theres also SPM, skill level, accuracy etc.

like in BC2, u find ppl with decent kdr, but have 0 skill level...which basically means they camp alot / dont even bother to do any objectives.
so no matter how these guys try to be proud of their kdr, anyone can just see thru them via their stats.

Added on November 12, 2011, 2:23 pmand kdr ratio has been around ever since BF1942.
dont even bother trying to bring COD into this.

This post has been edited by Everdying: Nov 12 2011, 02:23 PM

Well if u try to insert ur idea of K/D ratio != skill or e-peeners to those people u gonna fail pretty hard. Because their block head is always thinking that K/D ratio is SKILL

Just say hehe

yea, but again...they can claim how skillful they are, but the stats will always tell a different story.
anyway its all nothing until they prove themselves in competitions.

Accuarcy is hard to sustain
if i change to Support class
prepare to drop from 16% to 14% after two round
W/L ratio is depends because even in losing game i try to make sure my points are worth the time i play on the round
winning round only give you 200 points while MVP 500 if not mistaken

thats why got accuracy for individual weapons.
and i never mention W/L ratio also

my W/L ration is stupiddd. 1.03 SPM also, 218..but I don't really camp much.

if F2000 can just decrease its recoil a little bit.....uuurrgghh!

Trust me it is not even worth a try to bother W/L ratio when half of the team are "sniper" wannabe that shot air only instead of human

lol you need to be brave.

Mostly the losing team is due to afraid of fighting with defender defenses. w/l ratio mostly depend on that.

just unlock f2000 it seems like the damage of this gun is more powerful than AEK hmmm or its just my aiming got better?!?! its easier to kill with f2000 :-|

imho, AEK > F2000. I find that F2000 bullets love to fly all around the place but problem with AEK is that amno finish up very fast..

yup agree with that..im noob when using F2000 but better when using AEK

my fav is still AEK and M416 SCAR-H is ok, but the magazine kecil, 21 only but now I'm using F2000 cause planning to unlock IRNV for every Assault weapon.

yup...i love using f2000 compare with other assault weapons

F2000 FTW!

firing rate all the way~~

I Tried shotgun Dao-12 the other day, die a lot, quite hard to gain kill on this thing :/

yep F2000 is fairly good to use. Awaiting to unlock night version scope.

Classic M4A1 and M416 is the best!

dammnit, I suck at an 94

i got bullied so hard using an94

not that hard actually
its just annoying to use
but got to love its accuarcy and firepower

I'm used to auto rifles I watched those vids in Youtube, and those people was like tap, tap, tap..are we suppose to use it like that? CS style.

you can change it to auto by pressing V
that is the annoying stuff i talk about
everytime you respawn,revived
you have to re-enter V then it turn to auto

One more important that u muz test fire to confirm... if not later die dy.. wtf... y single fire..

u r in trouble when ur in combat zone

imo if use night scope i rather use sniper rifle,with night scope.

umm, any gun also u tap tap tap for very long shots.

its happens when i see long range ppl camping..
i tap tap him..he turn back..and then headshot..damn it he using sniper

snipers are funny.
all u need to do is pop behind cover and MOVE.
most snipers just put their crosshair over the place where u pop down below cover, and wait.
ie. they sux at reacquiring targets.
so just pop down, move, pop up, fire...and keep repeating

Now tat a pro sniper does... like Everdying... all BF otai otai... pro sial...

eh where got pro sniper?
i only got like 2 mins playtime with sniper and 829 pts only.
only reason i play it is cos one time i ran out of ammo, and just picked up the nearest dead kit to me
