Vanu weapons choices
I popped for the $15 Gamestop card that helped me acquire the VS11 (or NS11... whatever), and it is marginally better than the noob rifle you get standard.
My question is, What are the better rifles, pistols and such that a new player should work towards getting?
I know it's class specific in some cases, but maybe a hint at the next rifle a player should try to acquire after he/she gains points.
Maybe I've missed it, but I didn't see any discussions along these lines yet.
After the stock rifle a player should try to get...?

Re: Vanu weapons choices
Its all a matter of how you want to play your class that determines which gun is an upgrade for you. We'll take the EM-1 for example, which is an unlock for NC Heavy Assault.
The EM-1 has a higher magazine count, and faster reload then the base LMG. It also has a slightly higher RoF. What this does is allow you to dominate in close range with an lmg, because the bigger mag and faster reload lets you stay in The fight longer, and spend less time out reloading. The higher rate of fire makes full auto accuracy at range really bad, but close in it destroys.
Just like in BC2. I played recon and all the rifles you can unlock let you do something different then the last. But because of the way I played recon, I never used anything other then the M24, even though the M95 did more base damage and had less bullet drop then the M24.
It's all a matter of how you play that will determine which gun you want to unlock. Read the stats and compare them with the gun you are currently using to see which one you want to unlock, because all the guns are useful for certain situation and playstyles.

Yup, pretty much all the weapons in the game are 'side-grades' not upgrades. A shotgun instead of a standard rifle might destroy face up close, but after 30m or so it isn't doing jack.
I actually use the standard assault rifle on my combat medic vanu and just use certs to rig it out. I have a scope for distance work and the laser dot for when they are face hugging me.
Better SC is spent on vehicle weapons than infantry in my opinion.Phyrelight liked this post
