n00b question here.
I just started playing BF2 over the last week & I'm enojying it.

I love the sniper kit & had a question about the BF2:SF sniper rifle. 

At Lance Corporal I get an unlock which I would take the M95 & again at Corporal I get another unlock.  If I had SF would I then be able to get the L96A1 or is there something else that needs to be done?

Thanks

If you had SF you would...but there is an option to turn global unlocks off ...so on some maps even though you have unlocked it you still might not be able to use it!!

It doesnt matter if you have Sf, because the L96A1 sniper is originally on EF booster pack, but it is worth getting SF as it has good maps and the other unlocks are purtically good, or you can log in at your freinds SF and you will get your unlocks that way.

If i helped, maybe some karma?
YOU NEED SF to get the L96, you can use as the basic EU sniper weapon in EF, but if you want it as an unlock you must have special forces.

If I had SF at the first unlock is it possible to get the L96A1 before the M95?

No
The L96A1 was part of 1.22
It is a Primary weapon in EuroForces
SF is NOT needed for the L96A1   -EDIT: Strikethrough added - This is not true
You CANNOT unlock the L96A1 before the M95
However
If you have SF, you get TWO unlocks at each rank instead of one, so you could unlock 2 weapons (i.e. M95 AND L96A1) with one Rank Up.
These extra unlocks are bacwards compatible, so if you install and play SF after you've unlocked 4 weapons, you'll get another 4 unlocks when you finish your first round of SF.

Are you sure? I'm pretty certain that I unlocked it BEFORE Ii bought SF.
Though, I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time, won't be the last!!

You can't use the L96a1 in SF it is only the m95 or standard sniper rifels.

Karma is mainly used as a tool to give positive feedback on good, helpful, well thought out, well constructed, interesting, imformative, funny, original and otherwise amazing posts.
NO ONE like a karma whore. So don't ask.
And seeing as you're new, you might want to reconsider verbally abusing more long-term and well respected users of these forums, mmmkay?

You can't USE it in SF but you need SF to be able to use it in Vanilla as an unlock
HOWEVER you CAN use it in EF as a default weapon

That option is no longer available in 1.4. Servers that do enforce it are breaking Ranked Server rules.

And for the last time, if you have all sniper rifles unlocked you can choose from these per country:

V:USMC : M24,M95,L96A1
V:PLA : Type 88,M95,L96A1
V:MEC : SVD,M95,L96A1
SF:MEC SF : SVD,M95
SF:SEALS : M24,M95
SF:SAS : M24,M95
SF:REBELS : SVD,M95
SF:INSURGENTS : SVD,M95
SF:SPETZ : SVD,M95
EF:EUROPE : L96A1,M95
EF:PLA : M24,M95
EF:MEC : SVD,M95
AF:PLA : M24,M95,L96A1
AF:USMC : Type 88,M95,L96A1
AF:MEC : SVD,M95,L96A1

TIER 1 (You need BF2): M24,Type 88, SVD
TIER 2 (Unlock 1, you need BF2): M95
TIER 3 (Unlock 2, you need SF): L96A1

And for those that are still confused as to why you can't choice TIER 3 weapons in SF, that is because many of the TIER 3 unlocks are standard weapons for the armies in SF. For example : the SAS use the F2000, MG36, MP7 etc. etc.

The P90 and L96A1 however are standard weapons for the European army, thus not included in SF. To play these weapons as STANDARD - I repeat - STANDARD you need EF. To play these weapons as TIER 3 UNLOCK you need to have them unlocked and you can choose from them in regular BF2.

WTF?  Some people are so dishonest, two-faced it's unbelievable.

By the way, as a Mod, shouldn't you have moved this thread to BF2:SF - Help instead of berating a guy for saying people should help, not be rude?
