how rare, my position on that leaderboard happens to be quite high, despite barely playing the game

. (Pxnspd is me btw)

Hmmm, that's odd. I've just spent about 3 hours as a medic and my stats still only show 1 revive and 35 points. I've filtered out non-ranked servers too. Arse

it might take a while to update.

if you look ingame, that's always pretty close.

Give it a while, the rank server sometimes takes a bit of a while to catch up. By the time it registered my first promotion, I was over 3/4 of the way to my next one already!

I'll go for the PKM, but not sure what else - the eng's existing shotgun is adequate, so unless the jackhammer's great, I might go with the AWP or F2000 as I've gone to the trouble of unlocking the earlier guns to make them available. I never play as medic, as I can't seem to get the paddles to work properly.

Although, what's the SCAR like, might have to unlock the G36 to get it next time?

I've just discovered how this can be used as a sniper rifle and it was fun.

Close range its arse though

it's still pretty good, you just have to switch to ironside mode.

The SCAR-L is poo. The G36C is more accurate and has lower recoil. The only benefit to te SCAR-L is the laser dot scope, which isn't really necesarry. The G36C is much better. You're much better off unlocking the PKM or DAO-12 than the SCAR-L.

I wonder how many people will actually get that.

bad joke, right clicking using pkm = using the iron sights

Post by **deject** » March 20th, 2006, 17:33

really, at anything farther than about 5 meters you should be using the sights.

Grrrrrr.

I added myself to the league ( didn't appear to be on it) and that now works, but I'm missing a few badges and I'll never make boy scout without them. Basic Combat medic says I need 10 kills as a medic: I have 22 but no badge. The other basic medic badge says I need 10 heal points: I have 15, but no badge. Basic armour needs 10 mins in armour: I have 38 and no badge. Why anyone?

You need to get each of those things in a single round, not as an overall total.

If you notice, those say "IAR" which stands for "In A Round."

I did notice it said IAR. I didn't notice any explanation as to what IAR means.
