    Red face APC's shooting trew walls

    Could it be that apc's and/or tanks can shoot trew wall's? I often get killed (especially at karkand hotel, love that map) while proning at the back of a wall, but making sure nothing of my body is visable true the wall.

    And how about the upgraded medic gun, I am a better killer with the standard guns, could someone give me some tipps about the upgraded medic gun (L-something- something) Thanks.

    I definitely know that the 50 cal on a vodnik/humvee can shoot through fences, but I'm not sure about APCS and Tanks shooting through walls.

    the medic unlock is my absolute FAVORITE of the unlocks, followed by the anti-tank shotgun.

    FYI, the TG servers don't allow for unlocks to be used. That is because most of the players here play exclusively on TG (an unranked server), and such players don't get any global points and therefore can't unlock any of the weapons. it keeps the playing field level, in other words.

    the medic upgrade should be used like any other assault rifle. switch to semi-auto and use the scope when the enemy is at medium to long range. the scope is exceedingly accurate, and on most public servers you can outduel a sniper if you know the interval to pop off three shots in a row (that is, unless he gets a head shot in). the ONLY time to have the weapon on full auto is when you're engaged in close quarters combat, and in such instances DO NOT use the scope.

    hopefully this is how you're using the basic assualt rifles; the only advantage of the medic unlock is it has that beautiful scope mounted on top, instead of the iron sights.

    happy hunting!

    Dice does not conisder unlocks "upgrades". The tout them as "alternatives". I prefer the normal medic rifle over the unlock. Contrary to that, the AT unlock makes the AT vastly superior at close range, the ultimate close range weapon if you know how to use it.

    I believe splash damage goes through fences and even walls.

    Splash damage may or may not go through walls; most likely your foot is sticking through the wall or something. It's pretty dumb, but you can be killed like that.

    Sniper rifles also shoot through metal fences. It's kind of hard to aim though... (hint: you can see feet under the fence).

    In BF2, there is a difference between cover and concealment. Just because that tank can't see you doesn't mean he can't launch 5 shells at the wall in front of you to kill you.

    Re: APC's shooting trew walls

    Thanks guys for the swift reply, especially the first one, I allways had issues when comming into CQB, with the "unlocked" medic gun, but sometimes, I got a nice long distance snipe, but this was also whe I fired single shot.

    But still for short and medium range i prefer the ordinary gun, and then at the utmost the kalasjnikov.

    The doa12 is also a fine gun. but only to sneak up on people and wack them from close range (2 - 7 metres)

    Well now I try to keep away from the wall'I heard that before (black hawk down) But I didn tlean true the wall, and still I got shot from a meter away of the wall, more times than one

    fact, the most effective way to kill infantry in a tank is to fire the shells around them rather than at them
