The SA80.

TehDutchDude · 02-02-2008, 08:26 AM

Hey guys, I got a question regarding the SA80 (thats what the British Assault Rifle is called right? I'm bad with names). When I first started playing 0.7 I couldn't kill anything with assault rifles. Now I can. I do fine with the QBZ, G3, and the M16, but it seems I can't do jack with the SA80! It just seems very inaccurate for me. I use it the same way I use an m16. Aim, relax, pull the trigger every 1.5 seconds. The M16 kicks butt, the SA80 however gets it butt kicked. Anyone got some tips for me? The only kills I get is with the SA is by unloading a clip at someone closer then 20m o.0

The L85A2 is definitely not as user friendly as the all conquering M16A4 in v0.7, when it was king before (the G3A3 doesn't count because it was obviously just ... wrong). Seems a bit tempermental

it has a kick and then a werd wobel after wids, but it ok it still very accurite at lest for me. once you under stand it this weapon is deadly but we cant realy explain it you have to figger it out your self triel and error.

:O BLASTPHEMY!!!!

Love the SA-80 and here's my tips for it's use...

Keep the gun on full auto alll the time, the delay between shots is enough so that you can still quite easily squeeze off single shots.

in my experiance the new version rocks on woodlandy maps, when you see your target drop to a knee and aim for his gut, fire a burst of shots whilest leaning into the gun to counter the recoil and you should have an enemy looking like swiss cheese

i find the l85a2 to be one of the more accurate assault rifles.. but it is a bit annoying when on sigleshot from a distance it take like 6-7 shots to kill them. But it is THE best weapon in pr right now for close quarter battle.

Yeah, L85 isn't a problem for me. Auto for in close, single at range. To be honest I use it the same way I use the M16A4 and the QBZ-95. Well aimed shots at distance, close in burst/auto. Never really noticed much difference between the 3.
