I cant aim for ****.  At least not as good as everyone else - I get headshotted all the time. But it really sucks when people punish you for stepping on your mine, or otherwise accidentally killing them...
I've been playing 2 or 3 days and I only have a global score of 200. Maybe 6 hours total?

Which guns did everyone unlock?
I unlocked the G3. Its nice, I get alot of kills with it but its smaller clip size is very annoying. I wish I unlocked the G36 or L85 instead, since I play specops and medic far more than assault (except now I play assault almost constantly so I hone up my g3 skills).

How do I unlock a weapon?
You get your first unlock when you get promoted to Lance Corporal, just give it like 10 minutes and reload the game, it'll prompt you to unlock one. You get an unlock every promotion after that, too.
lol at those rules, btw.

I hate Songhua Stalemate and Mashtuur City. Former because its so foggy and its hard to get around, and the latter because I get pwned by black hawks all the damn time.
Favorites? Well, I like Dalian Plant alot. I haven't played Sharqi Penninsula that much, but I love it. I also like Fu She pass, but I think I've overplayed it.
The others I'm pretty neutral to. Except Strike at Karkand, I either hate it or love it, depending on which team I'm on.

I dunno, the g3 is nice, but the small clip combined with the lack of a grenade launcher is pretty lame. I've got 8k more points before my next unlock, probably get the L85 because I'm usually medic anyway. I only chose the g3 because a friend of mine that I squad up with already picked it.
the l85 that is.

The only thing I hate more than people taking off in cars/helis without any passengers is people punishing when running over your mines. I was about to break my keyboard in disgust on one particularly evil round.

It kinda sucks that it takes so long to get promoted after Corporal. I'm debating creating a second account so I can unlock the PKM and G36, two other guns I want. Though it means my time and points are spread across two accounts so my epeen will be shorter

I just played commander for the first time.
I did OK, as it was my first time. We lost, but it was fairly close - 21 - 0. Its really a full time job and even though I was sitting in base the whole time I couldnt really keep up with giving all the squads orders, so I really only gave generic attack orders. I didn't do too well with getting artillery kills... but at least I didnt teamkill anyone.

I cant hit crap with bombs, and my missiles never hit. When I get in a plane, it ends with me crashing into a hill.

I got kicked while commanding, apparently because I was using the comms TOO MUCH. That is, I whenever I used the scan I would pinpoint and call out all the enemy locations I could... and apparently my team mates didn't like that.
Bastards.

My game crashed as usual... if I had only gotten one more kill.  I seriously kicked ass that round though, I joined mid round, got a silver medal AND my combat action ribbon.

My new favourite tactic is filling a buggy with a full load of c4,
Driving at brek neck speed to a full enemy apc, jump out half a second before impact and blow the c4.
That is called the Jihad Jeep, and it pwns.

Yeah, I was wondering why I was able to use all the weapons.
Man, its really great because I was trying to decide between the PKM, L85, and G36 for my next unlock. The L85 is, by FAR, the best of them.

I dunno, I kick ass with it though. Its got a little more recoil than the others, but the scope means you can snipe snipers. On strike at karkand, for instance, I killed 3 snipers at once with my trusty L85
Someone did an actual comparison of all the guns to their unlocks, the L85 is sort of average except that it has that scope. I think it makes all the difference for me. Lots of people say it sucks up close too, but it works just fine for me. I guess I like long range firefights.
BTW, playing as medic I'd get maybe 1:1 K/D ratio with the standards. With the L85 I completely wipe the floor, except for when I get raped by an m203/tank/blackhawk.

Lost all my ranks/medals and unlock's due to that hacking thing
Ouch... did you send a message to EA support?
Well, I didn't lose anything. I'm still dissapointed though, I was hoping I would be able to re-choose my unlock... but it seems like I'm stuck with the G3 forever.

Tip for snipers in bf 2 - there is no bullet drop at all in the bf 2 gun physics.
Are you sure? I can't hit jack at long ranges.
By the way, I haven't sniped in a while and just tried it again today... the Type 88 (PLA one) pwns at medium ranges. 3 shots and your guy is dead unless you get a headshot. Just don't fire too fast, its not like he's going to be able to a. stop panicking enough to find you, b. find you, and c. get off a well placed shot before you can take him down.
I think its awesome on Fushe Pass.

Its not just the engineer 'exploit', its those damn miniguns. They have a much higher arc of fire so you can hit stuff in more directions, and they do assloads of damage. Plus you dont even need to aim, you just fire in a general direction. Its a freaking death cannon. Can't wait till they stop the chopper whoring.
Best use for the MEC and PLA transports imo is slapping c4 to the front and ramming full rapehawks. Thats what I call them now btw.
Oh yeah... is anyone else celebrating like hell that they are going to redo the punish system? Lets hope they get it right. Maybe then I'll play engineer/commander more...

G36 is probably the best overall unlock imo. You can snipe with it even though its a carbine, its got great ROF, unmatched accuracy and its a specops gun, and specops are awesome anyway. Although the other 3 specops guns are pretty good already so its not that much of an upgrade. Since you've already got that i'll give you my opinions of the others.
M95 Barrett: Unless you LOVE sniping, you shouldn't get it. Its basically like an M24 except slightly stronger, slightly less accurate and can shoot through aircraft glass.
G3: In my opinion, this gun is pretty crap. At short range you will run out of ammo real quick, and there is no grenade launcher for noobing people. Not only does the gun only hold 20 rounds you also get less spare magazines. At long range, the recoil of this thing makes you cry along with the iron sights. Its decent at medium ranges though, as it hits hard. I would only reccomend this if you only play assault, and only play on maps like Mashtuur and Karkand - and even then, the AK-101 is just as good, if not better.
PKM: This thing hits like a freight train. Its much better than the other 3 LMGs, since you can actually hit stuff beyond 10 feet. It fires slower, which is good because the recoil is very manageable, while still having awesome damage. If properly used this thing will mow down squads with ease. This one gets my stamp of approval.
Jackhammer: Its awesome up close, but it takes a while to reload and you need to make sure you don't run out of shells mid fight. Nonetheless, its the engineers gun, and engineers at the moment suck because you will always get some friendly APC filled with 5 noobs that runs over your mine and they all punish you.
L85: Lots of people hate this gun, others wear by it. I'm one of the latter. Basically, this gun has lots of advantages and lots of disadvantages. I'll start with the disadvantages which you already know. Its got high recoil, it doesnt do that much damage (more than an M16 though), and its got a little more aim deviation. Unless you're really good with it you will not win most fights up close. However, this thing features an AMAZING scope. The L85 should always be switched to semi auto except when you may be exposed to a close-range fight. When you are using the scope plus semi auto... you will absolutely dominate at medium to long ranges. This one gets my stamp of approval too, especially as its the medics gun. Medics are real fun to play, can heal themselves and teamates too. With the L85, you become a sniper that can heal himself and reasonably fight at close ranges.
DAO-12: Ok, this one I'm not so sure about. In almost everyones eyes this thing is an amazing upgrade over the SMG's that AT comes with standard, and it probably is. It does great damage, you can reload one shell at a time so you never waste ammo, and it comes with the AT rocket so you can kill vehicles too. However, you are seriously lacking in long range fights. The AT rocket won't hit infantry unless its a noob. I won't give this a positive or negative stamp, because I'm not really sure about it. I do OK with the SMGs personally.
Not knowing your playstyle except that you suck with the L85, I'd say go for the PKM. Although thinking about it the DAO-12 might be a decent choice too - you have the G36 which is good at long-medium range, the DAO-12 might be a good choice so you can have a good close-range gun too. But, the PKM is also good up close. Besides, the DAO-12 is ugly... if they make it so engineers aren't crippled by punishments in the 1.03 patch, I'd suggest the jackhammer.

OK guys.
1 theres a simple super affective way of beating the choper *****s.
AS mech and China transport heli is so rarely used.
get in it and ram the black hawk.
kills you but u gank the blackhawk and get upto 7 kills.
Don't do it on normal choppers as thats just lame, only the ***** blackhawks.
yup, its even better if you put c4 on it. That way you're guaranteed to get the kills, otherwise it will occasionally count it as them killing you and them suiciding.
