best sidearm

Post » Thu Dec 06, 2012 5:17 pm

I am thinking of doing some pistol only instan actions and have down one already. to me, the best pistol and one of the best looking ones is th hammer with cell camo and supressor and ext mags and rapid fire, it would early always knock them down and has a great rate of fire with the rapid fire upgrade on what are your thoughts?

I dont think its necessary to have extended mag for sidearms, you can kill an enemy with in armor with one clip. The only attachment I use is the supressor and the cell skin :) As for the ay69 not may pros use this.. I currently use the Nova cause you can shoot faster but the hammer is more powerful; both are pretty good, its up to you.

But I noticed some of the best Crysis 2 players use ay69.

Well, I don't think I could be considered one of the best, but I think my opinion would count.

I only use two sidearms regularly, the MAJESTIC and AY69.

Majestic has enough power to kill with 2 shots, and it's deadly with rapid fire.
I know, most people consider Rapid Fire HAMMER to be superior, but that's just because of the bigger mag in my opinion.

The Majestic can be used similar to a shotgun-like primary weapon, since it has enough ammo and is good at conserving it. It is capable of countersniping, as in, killing snipers in one shot before they decloak, and to top it all off, it's hipfire is accurate enough to be called reliable.

_____________________________________

The AY69 is very different from all other sidearms because of the fact that it's the only Machine Pistol in the game and it spits out ammo pretty fast.

It's possible to use it as a backup weapon to finish off the opponent since you can "spray and pray" if you're in a panic. This is one of it's advantages.
BUT
If you use the module AIM ENHANCE III, you will be moving at nearly sprinting speeds while aiming down the sight on the AY, and it's VERY accurate at close to medium range. Considering it's firing speed(rpm), your absurdly high speed while aiming down the sight, and it's deadly accuracy with Aim Enhance III, the AY69 has one of the quickest kills in the game in close quarters combat(as far as sidearms go). The only sidearm that may kill faster is the Rapid Fire Majestic.

It's only problem is that it doesn't carry much ammo, neither in it's clip nor in total. So you can't run around with it pretending it's a primary like the Majestic, at least not for long. I use it for quick kills when I sneak up on an enemy or on the rare cases where my primary is out of ammo.


I'm not one to use easymode weapons, so these may need some getting used to, but trust me, every weapon in this game is a killer when used right.

AY69 Extended Mag is what I use, people who say it svcks are just going to be that much more pissed when they die by it.
