yeah i heard about the 'baby' sa80's. just an sa80 with a tiny barrel, well cute.

'[R-DEV wrote:Evilhomer']Don't fret, it's all being prepared! The UGL will possibly be with the assault class, carbine may also take over the shotgun for the engineer, and there may even be the choice between the minimi and the LSW!

Isn't a rifleman class going to be implemented? I think the grenadier should be a totally separate class.

Possibly, we havent spent enough time tweaking infantry yet to fully comprehend what our game plan is. So it is sort of a watch this space kind of thing.

Yea I've heard the L22A1 carbine, was only for tank crews. Is it gonna be added?

Holy Thread Revival, Batman!

Anyway, AFAIK it might be added for the crewman class in the distant future.

Also, congratulations on your sucsessful operation of the forum seach feature. You are a fine example to us all.

Anyway know if the L22A2 is gonna added for the tank crews + pilots?

This is the A2 version, notice the picatinny rails.


And this is the older A1 version (notice different cocking lever), I only added it coz the top pic doesn't show you what it looks like with a clip.

£10 on him having tried to do a direct link from world.guns.ru

Wow, I was reading this thread thinking wtf?
It all makes sense now, +23xp to Necro.

Ah i want to see the GPMG in game as a Heavy support more than anything else.

1) The carbine SA80 has a shorter barrel and no rifleman is going to want to use it as their personal weapon. The accuracy over range is decreased from the standard rifle. It is a weapon for armoured crews, since it is easily manouverable and can save someones life as they exit or enter a vehicle (not having to spend seconds trying to rotate it to get it through the hatchway, even though the standard rifle model is already bullpup!)

The rocket you see attached to the barrel of the SA80 in the first page is what in the early 90's we called the "Claw rocket" and was being tested out in Northern Ireland. You switched over the rifles gas setting and fired a round which impacted the rear of the rocket, setting off the firing cap and launching the rocket. The UGL is the better option and has taken off. The very inconvenience of having to flip the casing cover and use a tool to adjust the gas setting doesn't make the Claw rocket anything more than a policing type weapon needing preparation time.

hahaha, the Carbine will eventually come in. Why not? It's a valid weapon. Just needs the usual staff to spend immense amounts of time getting it done for a future release.

Good job on searching. And possibly, I think.

I think they had some problems with the belt-fed ammo. Something about not being able to have ammo go over the players body instead of in a box like the other MGs.

From what I heard due to the way weapons are modeled in BF2 the belt would just hang static off the weapon and also wouldn't appear to be fed into the weapon and bassically would generally look **** (with such antics as having an entire belt hanging off the weapon even if it were empty, and the reloading would probubly look fairly strange). Bassically you can't have "magazines" (which is what the belt would be in game terms) that disappear into the weapon or that waggle about as they move.

hmmm... crewman weapons...

I'm sure I'm supposed to say... something... about something...

I'm pretty sure it invloves one of these weapons:


And this man:


Now what was it...

zomfg, you're supposed to say P-90!! Bob.

this thing on the Carbine is very interesting, i must say...

OOOOOOW a fire cracker

£10 goes to bob marley! Well anyway if u type L22A2 into google image search, then check the "World-guns" link, you'll see what I mean.

Yea I'd really like to see it in, it's quite unique looking, and specific to the British

What can I say, I really wanna see the L22A2 in PR lol! Bob what's with the pic of the M4, P90 n crewman, I don't get it, and yes I am n00b.

Unsurprising, if you haven't been around for a while you wont get it.

Anyway, you have commited something which is something not so easily forgiven. You misidentified an M733 "Colt Commando" as an M4! An M4!

You sir, deserve to be modernized. (see my sig).
