I'll be on later too.

You'll find me loitering on the non-AK maps, heroically flying the PH banner all by myself! shoot

In other news, I got accused of camping yesterday. Whilst in the attack helicopter.

No mean feat I can tell you.

hehe

Do you mean the Close Quarters maps Hoofy?

I had similar problems adjusting as I've never done particularly well in short-range engagements anyway- I've always preferred staying at mid range with something like the G3A3 or KH2002.

For CQ I found the M27 IAR a solid choice for support, or the AS Val (although having not yet unlocked the extended mags I like to take the suppressed G18 as backup!). I see loads of people using the PKP, yet I cannot use that gun for toffee.

If I get really desperate while playing support on CQ maps I'll play a couple of rounds with the 870MCS shotgun. I don't feel as guilty using it as some of the auto shotguns, yet it nearly always picks up my KDR (and my confidence!) and then once I've unleashed my anger I switch back to one of the other weapons. I've racked up just over 100 kills with it, with 84% accuracy!

I think a lot of it is getting used to the maps though, as I see people dominating with just about every weapon under the sun- I'm not sure any are much better or worse than others, it's largely what you are comfortable with. (One guy the other night went 32kills for 11 deaths using the basic M16 on Ziba Tower)
Guess I need to keep playing until I learn the map plus find a gun that works for me.
