Just wondering what ya all think of the M16.  I personally think it's the best Assault rifle in the game.  I love playing the assault kit too, not just because of the M203, I have less than 200 kills with the M203. I save it strictly for Vehicles, and groups of 2 people or more.  Peeps make fun of me because I don nade whore or jump around with it.  Should I nade whore, or keep my honorable ways?  Also is there a difference between the Assault M16 and the Medic  M16?

On the part of the difference between the guns? The M203 of course. Other than that? No. They're both the M16A2. Btw. Do whatever you feels right, it's a game. If you want to nade whore, be my guest.

If you don't use the grenade launcher, why not go medic instead?  You use the same rifle, but you can heal and revive.

I am one to use 'nades for those zippy little veichles too, but it is fun to be a n00b-tube artist once in a while. Try it out, it will be a lot of fun.

I use the M16A2 w/ 203 the same way you do bond, I also use it to reach places I can't get with my rifle, like the tops of building and around corners via splash damange. If a noob tubers misses me with his 203 he's dead, period, no amount of dolphin diving is going to save him if he does what most do and hop around trying to reload the 203 for a second shot rather than switching to the gun.

I hate the fact that people can point blank with the 203, I really prefered the America's Army implimentation where it took at least 30 ft possibly more for the grenade to activate, any closer and it wouldn't explode and would only cause minimal kintetic damage from a direct hit.

It's like picking the AT kit and not using the rocket launcher.  Be a medic if you don't want to use the grenade launcher.  You'll be infinitely more valuable to your squad.

The Assault kit has extra ammo and more armor, plus the smoke grenade/flash.

Unless you have the F2000, there is no flash.  Well, not for BF2 anyway.

And either way, 1 meter is about 3 feet, so the arming distance of 30 feet isn't that far away in BF2 terms.  I did kill someone from ~100 meters away with my 'tube today.  Took me 2 shots, but I hit them with the F2000 GL.  That would be 300 feet, BTW.

Heh, well I still try to stick my means, only 2 or more soft targets, unless I unload a clip and have to reload in a fight then I whip out the m203, vehicles, smoking pieces of armor, or hitting someone hiding behind a crate where there is a wall behind them. It's all about how you play.

If the new patch (1.2) isnt a hoax I would recommend everyone take a leaf out of [A-51]-.Bond's book & get practicing comabt this way, since that is the way it will be for all soon. How the many bunny hoppers & dolphin divers shall fall.

M203ing the back of a tank is pretty damn effective.
u only need 4 nades to destroy a tank, guaranteed...

people who only use the m203/gp30 are people without any aim and skill to my mind. but im always amused when any gp30 boy comes around the corner, looks directly into my face, shoots his nade and kills me + himself + his teammate walking behind him. nice show, happens so often...

furthermore, the m16 in single shot mode is as well as as the g36c/e in single mode. for long and middle ranges the best choice!

The only difference is that the medic M16 has no M203.  I prefer the F2000 but up until I got the G3, the M16A2 was my favorite of the 3 beginning assault rifles.
