Featured Replies

ive been useing the m79 a lot on every map but crash for a few days now and ive racked up a lot of kills with it. now i see people in chat calling me cheap and saying i have to use a spam gun to get kills, or that it takes no skill to get kills with it. now i see a lot of these guys useing a famas(which i consider cheap) and its mostly those guys who complain. now my question is, is it cheap to use a weapon in the game that isnt bugged to kill people?

As long as you play on the Armory, you are fine to use any weapon. Don't consider anything cheap. And if they get really annoying, I'll just bury or llama them. :roll:
Well, I use the M79 usually as a weapon when there are lots of snipers or tough to get at area that needs to be cleared. Contrary to some opinions, I don't always carry this wep. I run outta cover and get sniped by some very good snipers (Azntwon, M3rc4ry or whomever) and get tired of it so I grab the missile thing and launch a few. Cheap? I don't know but it is strategic. I don't use it to just rack up kills although sometimes it gets you to 10 faster and a upgrade in skill. I say if you're good at it use it. You can't fire it while moving and the aim sucks and the grenades bounce and don't hit a lot so if the other people are so good with their Famas or whatever then they should have no prob killing you. If you get them first you are better :shock: . M79 is annoying in a few maps where everytime you turn around you get shelled but so is getting sniped everytime you run out somewhere.Klink_Out!
I don't think so, I'm pretty good at landing a grenade from it wherever i want it, people just get mad when someone kills them, most of the time because they are too dense to fathom someone else killing them so they make an excuse to try and make themselves feel better. In my opinion, it's good that these people get shot, it shows them once for.
Ya, if I am standing still I could probably hit someone right between the eyes with one but when I run and plant then shoot I always mess up and then fumble to grab my gun and get shot. LOL. I'm just a spaz I guess.

Yavol Hair Commadant :D With lots of practice you get eye for getting distant even small windows or doors :wink: If you get more kills then deaths you hel pyour team wit hrein battle atleast :wink:
Like in the "real field", they are life-saving for front line troops that encounter well hidden enemies :wink:
Why do y'all think fa made it unshootable when moving, and hte big machine guns ? Guys I know that are reasonable size, in army, say it sounds dum to have to stop to shoot so sniper get ya.
m79 is a good weapon when you're not using it for spamming. I use it to kill snipers or guys who are not moving (like mgunners) and other campers. It's not my primary weapon (I mainly use the g3a3), but I'm good with the m79 and I'm poor with the sniper rifles... so the choice is quick made :!: :D

'everything is cheap until proved otherwise'

 

... using ssg (or m82) is cheap coz ur sniping, and u don't want to move ur butt from one spot...

 

... shoties are cheap coz u can own everyone in cqb...

 

... m16 is cheap coz it's the best-all-around-weapon available and coz of the bug in burst mode (dunno if fixed)...

 

... clays are cheap when manualy triggered ....

 

... etc. etc. ....

nothin in that game is cheap...... especially the m79... now tell me how many of those players used the famas way back from 2.65!!!
The one thing I hate in this game are campers. People that don't do anything but snipe. You know what I'm talking about. The proners with an M82 and the bipod lying in a little corner bragging about how good they think they are. C'mon anybody can do that. When they rush they pull out that FAMAS which is still the ultimate noob weapon.

It's why I'm using a m79 :D

LOL!!!

Dunno if u're referring to my reply but there was a small note of sarcasm in my tone.... :D

I don't think there're any 'cheap' weapons in the game, ok... maybe arty markers near spawn- it's the most annoying on iwojima.

 

Anyway i'll try to be more precise next time :D

well i have 650 kills with the m79 now. and i gotta say its becoming more fun to listen to people complain about it.
One well placed nade in the middle of say 4 rushers, which sends them to rushers heaven makes me feel so warm and happy :LOL:
everytime u get killed ppl will say that was lame or cheap coz they have to run,depends on the map of course,all over it again.but running is good.its good if u wanna lose weight!! :LOL: lol
It's called survival, you do what you have to stay alive and kill others. And if people are going to bitch and say it's cheap or whatever, just kill them.

just dont listen to anyone when u hear "omfg spammer lamer fagmas" etc etc now they wouldnt be complaining if they had ur skills would they? just my 2 cents
i frankly could care less.... i use famas all the time. i am good at it but i am also proficient with the m82 and ak-47 as well so its not just the gun. and its been 2 months since last post.. probly shoulda started a new thread here. -G
...talk about a necropost! before it was revived this thread was last posted on June 25th!but just to make you all happy, the m79 is not cheap just amazing annoying :twisted: i can understand using it to get people in hard to reach places, but you should also use a gun to better your aim and to not just rely on the spam launcher :mrgreen:
If a weapon is available in a game, everyone can choose what he wants..(only the TAC People can change that/should ban some weapons, if they cause serious problems, like a server crash or anything like that).
yeah for necroposting the m79 post ^^Agreed with Arnie. I would add that if you don't like the game how it's played here, you can change of server... or set your own and limit the weapons.
