Which weapon or weapons do you like best to take on other BA's?

Bear Autocannon, hands down. Just hold down the trigger and point at the target. I like using the MP-PPC too, but too many times I nail someone with it, and the hit does not register.

No, just for some reason, BA can occasionally survive a DIRECT HIT.

Even though your own splash damage will one-shot you, I've hit and been hit by the MP-PPC and survived.

Would be kind of nice to melee the hell out of a ba sometimes since the opportunity pops up most of the time when going mano-a-mano.  However, since I can't, I go with either man ppc or the bear cannon for the kill.

I like to use the AC2 at as close to point blank as I can manage. It actually works quite well.

I've gotten a lucky kill with the AC2, and whittled someone down with the bear, but Manpack PPC just is the most efficient and powerful.  SRMs can be brutal in the right circumstances, too ;)

All of the BA weapons except the TAG (try as you might it just wont burn through the BA :( ) or the AC2 are efficient in killing BA.

How the hell are you guys hitting BA with the PPC? Are your opponents all running/ jumping in straight lines or standing still? That was the last response I expected.

I'm most of the others will answer the same, "wait till they're landing from their jumps and aim where you think they'll land."  A couple of the hot shots out there wait for the peak of a jump and aim there as well. ;D

Ya know...one thing I think I'm missing with the gauss and PPC in this mod is...I'm gettin' the sneaking suspicion you don't really need to lead the target like you do in the other MW games...

um, yes you do.  The MP-PPC I've never seen anyone survive a direct hit from one, everytime I've hit someone, they're dead.

I actually like the small laser... all it takes is 1 and 1/2 shots to kill a BA. You have to be good at managing your jj and not being predictable. Other wise a mppc will get you. But while they are trying to line me up with ppc or lead me with bearhunter, and i am already working on them with the laser.
