Baur H-AR and the Voss L-AR

[BKS Wood]

Seeing as ive started playing with the assault kits now in 2142 i saw the 2 unlockable guns just a few questions about em.

1. is the Baur going to be like..less ammo, more damage, poor zoom and the Voss going to be more ammo, less damage but gd for sniping?
(cos i like to pick people off with the scar11 so id rather something better for sniping, but i hate recon :P)

2. it says the rocket launcher thing will fit on the assaults normal weapon, will this mean it can only go on the scar11 n Krylov or can it be put on the unlockable guns?

I know the attachments can be put on the default Assault Rifles. Not sure about the rest.

Well i can only comment on the beta but its most likely still the same :)

The L-AR has more ammo but is so called a weaker gun, but i had both in the beta and the fact that the L-AR had more ammo was the reason i used it the most, it didnt even feel much weaker than the H-AR. One of the biggest complaints about the H-AR was its accuacy, people didn't seem to like that and i would agree partly. As far as sniping goes, i dont think you will be sniping much with either, the assault rifles dont really seem to be like that in 2142 - as far as i can remember the scopes were very similar with both guns.

And yeah all those shotguns, rockets etc would go with any assault gun, but they are both **** anyway :D

The shotgun only holds 3 rounds, too.

The other thing that cheesed me off is that the attachments show up in weapon slot 5 instead of more conveniently in 4. So if you need to quickly switch to the attachment from your main rifle you have to go up two clicks, increasing the possibility of overshooting it (and increasing overall time).

Just another interface goof. Par.

[ShadowFury]

Yeah man, 3 rounds - your better off just switching to the damn hand gun when your rifle is out, plus i read the tip about you deciding when your rockets will explode (i dont remember that in beta) - i dont really understand that and who will be bothered to calculate it everytime they move :p

[BKS Wood]

lol, the L-AR looks like its got a huge scope on the top..oh well
so the rockets cnt do any damage to vehicles? that was the main reason y id get it.
if das the case i may go engineer, jus his smg is quite crap..especially at long ranges :(

[Sethonan]

The Baur is nice for medium range in full auto, and medium to long in single shot; you can snipe a soldier 60 to 70 meters away in the head and still get almost a one shot kill.

[BKS Wood]

in the demo im usually either assulting with my squad or at warehouse sniping people at the reactor core or cappin the silo/flag.. i dno how far away that is but is the baur gd for that stuff?

[AJED (G.Drew)]

i was thinking of getting the baur
but i think if im going to unock the defib first then i my aswell stick to that chain and get the voss

[Killa4live]

U can use the defibs with BAUR

[BKS Wood]

well this was wot i was thinkin my loadout wud b
defib, rockets n baur / voss
rockets to take out damaged vehicles, defib to revive squad n baur / voss..but if they rnt gunna be anybetter than the standard rifles on single shot or auto i might aswell stick with the standard 1's

[vbl]

well this was wot i was thinkin my loadout wud b

Are you an orc?

[BKS Wood]

Are you an orc?
i dno wot u mean, but if you didnt understand it means "im thinking about choosing these tools / weapons"

[Alphaeus]

The Baur is for longer range, higher power, slower fire rate.
The Voss is for shorter range, lower power, faster fire rate.

I'm pretty sure the Baur can use the rocket launcher/shotgun, not sure about the Voss.

[BKS Wood]

dats mostly what i needed to know about the sniping abilities.. i didnt need to know i was an orc :S
just gotta find out if the rockets damage vehicles :P

thank you..ill unlock the BAUR then

I think it will work like this..

You select the attachment, little crosshairs come up.. you fire, and pressing the second button will make the thing explode. Will be usefull for taking out people behind cover i reckon.

[BKS Wood]

i wudnt really c the point, cos apparently they arc.. so you'd have to get the angle right for the distance..wen by that time if the sniper was decent he would just shoot you.
it wud be easier and faster to hop into a tank n blast him or sneak around n knife him seeing as knifing on 2142 seems to be alot easier :P

[jimbob056]

I've seen the way the ar rockets work posted several times.

If you fire unscoped they follow a balistic curve and explode on impact. If you scope and look at something the distance will be remembered and the rocket will explode after traveling that far. Once a distance is set, you can tweak the distance using the mouse wheel.

Hahaha! Oh man, that made my day! :laugh:

Maybe he didn't put enough points in language.

[Beerman]

Best I can say is:
BAUR H-AR 20 round clip, very good in semi shot, High power. Nice scope :D

VOSS L-AR 40 round clip, good in full auto and semi. Good scope also. Low power.

Rocket and Shotgun attachments can be attached to both. You can also put the shotty and the rocket on at the same time just less ammo.

[Raiblast]

not less, ammo, but it shares ammo. you get 3 shots in each, plus 3 extra clips. so if you take either the shotty or rocket, you'll have a total 12 shots, but if you take both, you'll have a total of 15.

but since they share ammo, if you use a clip of shotty and reload, then you're down to 2 spare clips, NOT 2 for the shotty and 3 for the rocket. just keep that in mind.

[Beerman]

I know. Just didnt go into detail, I meant you get less ammo for each.
