There was a "Jackhammer" in Planetside? Was it similar to the BF2 "Jackhammer" engineer unlock, a fully automatic shotgun?

Anyways, as I mentioned in the old thread (which was understandably closed when this thread was created), I can't wait to plop a Clark-RDX round on the hood of a Jihad Jeep.

Totally different. The Planetside Jackhammer was just a shotgun that could shoot at medium ranges with an alternative fire mode (choke), but suffered in both damage and ROF when you used it in the choke mode.

Actually, if you look at my avatar, the toon on the far right is weilding a Jackhammer

Ah, well thats an interesting idea, a mid-ranged shotgun.

Still, I always did like the BF2 Jackhammer, it was the perfect panic weapon when ya thought someone was sneaking up on ya while you were repairing someone's ride.

WoooooHooooo my favorite weap just got a whole lot more interesting, APM's RDX and motion mines just lost some significance, the rof increase will make it easier to get kills rather than kill assists through damaging. Nothing worse than plopping down 2 rounds and have one go off and losing the kill to someone else before the second detonates

Or adds, with new problems appearing. I mean, how the hell, all they're doing is adding a new map, tweaking afew guns and getting the kit layout saved, yet they go and screw with something else that didn't need touching and kill the bloody thing for some of us. Either that or they've rushed the thing for release. I don't know

Oh, another point of interest, this will be patch 1.40, yet when you check the reg version it says 1.28b - they must purposely have more changes in store that they've not mentioned. Probably why it's dying for some of us too

I would also like to know this as all the servers are quite laggy for me and i'd like to play the old maps again as i find the new one a bit boring.

Also I recieved that badge for capturing the assault lines last base but did not get the unlock point, is it because it was the EU base not PAC? or it was not a northern strike map? Or are the servers just unranked?

Any of those reasons could stop you getting the badge. . . make sure your server filter gets ranked servers only.
