Is it just me or does anyone else miss good ole regular Barb? Options

Not to take anything away from the MOD weapons Barb (and other maps on that server). I sure do miss regular sniper rilfes and just getting smoked by Abuse by a bolt action. So, is it just me? Ok, let me have it, i can take the abuse.

You need more team work now to plant and defuse b/c of the firepower one person can wield.

Use smoke to neutralize the range and effectiveness of the Drag, etc.

The problem is that the team that works together is rare on this server. If I'm not on with 6FootUnder, IPFreely, Fresh-Jive-Five and ssgtfazz (or some combination of them), I'm screwed. In fact, I played at 5:30 PM Eastern yesterday (without other MFD) for about 20 minutes. I was THE ONLY player on the Russian team to set a base during that round. I set G2 twice and G3 once and was killed all three times before the bases blew. Want to know why? Because there was not a single green triangle on my compass within 10 miles of the base I was setting. They were all busy sniping at Germans at the sandbags, or hiding in the cornfield sniping, or sitting in the Russian village sniping, etc.

Again, I really LOVE this server and will continue to play it (and score damn well without using the Noobanov, if I must say), but skilled players are becoming much more rare. And I mean skilled as in players who get to bases and set them as well as assist in covering the plant. This, after all, is Modern Weapons BASE ASSAULT.
