I played Sharqi and Karkand last night for a couple of rounds and I noticed something.

I whas walking towards a enemy flag, suddenly 2 enemys spawned, A medic *unlocked weapon* and a Anti Tank with the DAO. As soon as they spawned they started running around the flag and what not, immediatly I shot at the Anti-Tank guy. He started to panic and jump around unleashing his full clip on the Medic. Now that the medic whas dead, I could terminate the AT guy. This happend to me 4 times last night, if you see it it will surely give you a laugh .

Therefor i'd like to praise the paranoid DAO users.

Thanks for the laugh guys

Ah yes, I love playing psychological games with people
It's especially fun when you're a sniper or engineer... mines are awesome to play with people.

I know. I love it when you can stay on top of a building with a ammo box as a sniper. Infinite claymores for the ladder, and if it's tall enough, people can't shoot down on you are throw grenades up to you. FUN FUN FUN!

The DAO is dangerous in the hands of paranoid troopers...

That's true, but don't worry. I very rarely do it. I don't like to camp too much. I like mowing down attacking forces with a G3 and a couple clips. It's even better when a Medic's at hand to help me out. Then if he get's killed, I take his kit, and defib 'im. Did it yesterday... On Topic: I don't have the DAO-12 yet, and I want it. Is it very good?

It's like all the other shotguns.

Advantages: good at short range and house fights, greater clip than the other shotguns (12), semiauto

Disadvantages: medium and long range is no chance (really, I tried it often enough), long reload time, less damage than other shotguns (?)

For a AT, it's a must to be fully useful

That's what the pistol and rocket is for! pistol for medium range, and rocket for those long range anti-sniper shots. Now all you'd need are medic bags and you'd be the best class on the map

It was my first unlock and I hated it with a passion. I play mainly engineer and I found the transition from the excellent USMC pumpy to the short ranged, high recoil and weak DAO-12. Still the AT SMG's don't give you much of an option...

well... you could

1. Jam DAO into face of enemy
2. Click away as fast as you can
3. Laugh Maniacally
4. Repeat As Necessary

that's pretty much all you need to know about DAO hehe

The DAO is really good due to the pairing of it with your rockets, it's a;ot of fun but that varies from person to person. I just starting getting really into it and im happy.

I had an incident like this, only I was alot closer. I was rushing a cp and had ended up killing a couple ppl just before I got there, turned a corner before I finished reloading and spotted two guys trying to tag team me. I was out of ammo so I whipped out my pistol and started firing as they ran around me trying to get their crosshairs on me. I ended up running between them and one guy got confused and wasted his teammate and ran out of ammo at the same time, so I knifed him while he tried to reload.... hilarious!

Funny how this is brought up. A couple of days ago, I was carrying a DAO with low health remaining. I was hiding around a corner expecting a few enemies to turn the corner so I could blast them close range. A teammate ran around the corner, only to die almost instantly. I thought "the enemy should be coming soon, no doubt I'll annhilate them when they do in fact turn the corner!" I heard the voice of an American saying "CLEAR!" I forgot that I was an American and immediately ran around the corner to blast the unsuspecting medic that I thought was on the other team. I killed the man only to realize he was on my team. I was so intent on killing the enemy around the corner that I flipped the moment I heard a voice. Whoever that was, sorry, my bad.

I love my DAO. I just can't stand the submachineguns. I mean, they suck long range anyway. They're inaccurate, and have slightly more power than a BBgun. You need to be careful with the DAO. Go click-happy and you'll be reloading for the next 20 seconds, vulnerable to a small child with a sharpened stick. Save your shots and you'll be on the ground before you know it. You need to time your shots well. Make sure you're hitting flesh, not air. 3 well-aimed shots are enough to kill a guy in a firefight. Sure, it's not good long range. But I know most of my AT fighting is done short range. You shoot a rocket, and somebody comes looking for you. You turn a corner (or vice versa) and you start duking it out.
If you're AT, you're not going to lay on top of a building and shoot sub-machinegun shots at people, are you? Yeah, I love killing people with the rockets, but they're in short supply, and you always run out right when a tank rolls in.

Yeah, I agree on every point, RedFiercare. Couldn't have said it better.

I actually take the DAO sometimes on mostly infantry maps just to have the high ammo capacity, and the gun's firing rate in the hands of a fast clicker makes the Jackhammer look like a pump-aciton.

That's my main issue though - I click so fast with it now that Im often clean out of a clip on one enemy, and I usually end up using up more than half my clip with any one guy. Not that it matters, of course - you get like 59 extra rounds.

As for this particular story, I once took out two teammates doing the exact same thing. Us AT guys are jumpy, Ghost! You can't sneak up on us like that!

As a side note, how cool would it be if the commander had like a radio operated safety on all DAO's? Or the AT guys spawed in cages and had to be opened when they reached the enemy? lol, I know its stupid, but think of how funny that would be.

*30 Cages are placed along the road at Sharqi Peninsula.*

SomeRandomGuy: AT is in place, and all friendlies have cleared the area, commander. Set them free.

DrDestruction: Roger. Releasing safety and opening cages.

*War-like shouting is heard followed by the blasts of dozens of shotguns*
