@emerson1975 Nothing wrong with weapons in BF2042. Good recoil and balance. Pick one for style you play with, trust me, with custmizations available you can adopt any gun for your needs. No more airsoft-style shooting, if you're spraying with xbox controller thats your own problem.
SMG are OP at close range, as its supposed to be. ARs fine at mid-long range. NTW high damage but slow and heavy bullet drop. I can see + and - for nearly every gun in game. Can just play with "most balanced" AR15, I did with silencer, subsonics and rattlesnake grip - its deadly CQ. Probably real reason of "poor weapons" is that your playing skill is at poor level. Think about it
People just keep crying about everything without reason
