I will use whatever fucking gun I choose on any map I choose in any situation I am put into.
If I need to use a nade launcher, then I will. If I need a G3, then I will use it. Same with every other god damn weapon in the game. I couldnt care less if they are so called "noob weapons" - I will use them as I like and kick your whining ass back to the stoneage if you dont like it (not implied at anyone in particular )

As far as Im concerned, they were put into the game to be used. So by fuck, I will use them at my leisure.

I actually like the F2000, the crosshairs suck for long-range but in close quarters it gets the job done. I used it a lot in SF before I got my G3 unlock and I still choose the F2000 as my 2nd unlock but I prefer the Ak-47 lately. Either way who gives a shit about unlock whiners...people will whine about anything. Just fucking use what's appropriate to the situation.

Kind of funny anyway if you play SF where a lot of the unlocks are available no matter what your rank.

You know, I've never understood why people bitch so much about unlocks. For the most part they're pretty comparable to the stock weapons, and the only way to get them is by actually playing the game and ranking up - which means that they technically can't be noob weapons. But I think you get free unlocks if you buy SF.

There's really only one weapon that I have no respect for, and that's the G36E. I just have to roll my eyes when I get killed by it. It's way overpowered.

~"I used to use unlocks whenever I could, but now that I have gained a few ranks, I have gone back to the original guns"

I agree with this completely. When I was a noob I ALWAYS chose an unlock, and if I didnt have an unlock in that kit, I didn't play it. And then a few months ago, I was playing on a new account name to try out an unlock that I didnt have. Naturally I went into a karkand server and immediatley became a medic. I was MEC and was like.. awww, the AK, I hate that gun. Oh well.

I proceeded to own the entire server, and get a gold past the tankwhores and the commander. That was the day that I started using(and owning with, mwuahaha) stock guns.

I dont bitch about them, I like NOT to use them because what is the point of using the same old guns everyone else has, I like to rape with non obvious weapons, its more fun.

And even though I do think people who use the G36E are pathetic, I cant be arsed to go on about it. Its like the PKM situation, an obviously overpowering gun to most things, more plus points than evened out good and bad points that most other guns have. And its just annoying when everyone uses the damn thing and doesnt bother to actually try and learn some skills other than your 'pick up and be perfect accuracy' gun.

Its like picking the obvious gun, saying " oh I suck with all the other guns so im gunna use the rape gun " or something.

And if you say well why dont you use it, what kind of game would that be, if everyone was using the same bloody gun.

Doesnt bother me anymore as I fixed my lag, its just kinda pathetic seeing everyone with a G36E.

Go learn with other guns.

Unlocks give people an advantage of some sort, or they wouldn't be used.
Not all people have all the unlocks.

Therefore, people who use unlocks may have an advantage over some others.

I'm sure you can see why there are complaints.

i have all unlocks but i dont use all of them, they all dont give advantage, most of unlocks are made for different playing styles.

They don't radically change your playing style. Without unlocks, you walk around shooting people. With unlocks, you walk around shooting people. Some unlocks are better at certain things than the base guns, and if they're used to win fights people who don't have them will complain. That's why everyone complains, 'cause of an unfair situation. Someone in a tank, someone in a plane, someone with a superior weapon they don't have.

You're not going to stop people complaining unless every single person is equal. Even if you do that, they'll still bitch because their skills won't be equal.

If your have ever played in a match before you can't use unlocks. So the tactic is to only train with non-unlock weapons.

My CAL main team enforces a rule that we can only play with non-unlocks. This is how we learn to practice and become better with them. So when an important match comes we can play any kit with any non-unlock weapon that it uses.

If someone is complaining about unlocks then it's most likely a player who plays in matches and/or competitive. It's something that the majority of the BF2 community doesn't do or expect.
In the competitive league it's disrespectful to play on a CAL main team server with unlocks.
It shows you're not competitive and you don't belong there.
