Been slowly but surely working towards sharpshooter infantry medal. Got medic, assault, support, specops, knife and pistol out the way. Was really dreading playing anti-tank, using up most of the hours playing commander or flying the chopper.

But......since 1.3.....the p90.......Damn that thing can mow enemies down like crazy. Very effective at close range with its rate of fire of a gazillion bullets a second, and its not too bad at range. Hell......even got a handful of gold medals as anti-tank. Prefer it to the DAO.

Thoughts?

Isnt it that, Once again, It just Fires Faster? + A new Sound, But In my Opinion, The P - 90 Was Always Good. You just had to know how to use it.

Rate of fire dramatically increased. At least 50%. Now you can kill guys 50% quicker

I'm pretty sure they upped the P90 rpm in one of the 1.2x patches actually.

It just sounded like crap so no one really liked it...

Yeah, they boosted the ROF of the P90, I never use it, but see my self using it at long ranges, the damage of 19 really sucks though, its the same as a pistol, but cant beat the ROF, it has 900 as does the MP-7. Still like my shotty though. I play SF alot so the P90 doesnt effect me until I go to vBF2 and Euroforces.

They boosted the ROF many patches ago (well 2 I think it was, the one before 1.3) but they didnt change the sound effect for it. Now they did, but its still the same thing just with a different sound. I guess it does help with the feel of the gun.

Wow. Amazing that I started up a topic ages ago which shared EXACTLY THE SAME TITLE!
It's a bit out of date now as the ROF has been changed, but still pretty thorough.
The original "The P90".

I <3 the P90. About 5 more hours and I'll be eligible for expert AT. The P90's gonna get it done for me. I still almost like the PP-19 better. It mostly depends on my mood.

I have noticed that the P90 is beastly. It took me down in about 4-5 shots when I was running away at like 50m. How do i know the shots? I could hear them hit me b/c the rate of fire didn't seem to change, to me the victim neway, but the damage was kicked up. But that was only the 2nd time I was legit killed by a P90 user.

It definately helps with the feel. I mean, if you can't hear the bullets, how do you know they're being fired? When you hear the new 1.3 P90, you KNOW you're firing them. but before it was all speculation, unless you were looking at the meter and watching them go. pfft, but who does that?

Actualy, the RPM is exactly the same as it was pre 1.3, fire rate was 900 before 1.3 and it still is. All they did was fix the sound sync. If the RPM was increased they would have mentioned it in the change notes. Thanks.

But, it still makes a difference. If you can't hear or see the bullets exiting the gun, you're not going to know anything.

So yes, it's all in your head, but that's actually saying something. Now people are finally realizing that hey, this P90 really ain't so bad.

yes, P90 is great, but still there are so few guys to play AT with me, no one likes engaging armour except jihad cars...that is so funny to see spec ops driving away with Vodnik fully loaded with c4 and get blown before he reaches the target anyway, P90 made AT playable, so you can kill some infantry without pulling out pistol. Still it is great to snipe out snipers with SRAW. There are so much advantages of AT... Hate to see maps, where all my team is formed by medics and medics...and snipers in armour.

When it first came out it was 600 RPM.

That always happens to me too, lol. It's one of those guns that makes you have bad luck for killing it's owner.

Typical:

- SRAWs vehicle
*Sees enemy, switches to P-90, presses left mouse button, oh noes!!1wtfshootdammitwtf!?!?

*dead before even gettiing a shot off*

For some reason, this bitch hesitates way to long before it fires it's initial shot.
