    My favorite support guns were the 45 rounders.

    While I like the stopping power of the starting Russian support gun, I much prefer the accuracy of the American one. I dont know if either of those are actual things or if thats just in my head though.

    They both deal assault rifle damage (25-18.4). The RPK also has less vertical recoil and a smaller first shot recoil multiplier.

    Plus, you know, a bugged 200 round magazine that reloads in 3.0 seconds or 4.0 empty.

    People badmouth the starting weapons all the time, or at least ignore them simply because they think they are inferior. The funny part is that they are just about the best all around guns in the game. Before the patch the AKs kind of sucked a little next to the M4/16/27 but post patch, they are the poster children for playing battlefield. Afterwords the guns get more specialized and better for some people's play style. That is developed not bestowed, however.

    The fact that the RPK is the best support gun, hands down, right now is hilarious because I almost never get killed with it. I still get killed more with the PKP, post patch than the RPK. That first gun stigma really hangs around, even if they are statistically the best guns in the game.

    Edit: I have more to say. Stay tuned

    I think I have finally come to terms with what happened after the patch. All of the chaos from the changes fucked with my poor little stoner brain a little too much. I have been realizing more and more that this patch made the game far more nuanced and subtle. Gone are gigaOP combos like AEK, Silencer, Forgrip. Sure we still have the mass, but overall you have much more balance. It took me a while, but I think I have found my niche on most maps now. Firestorm is no longer fun for me. The changes to the guns and the new FUCKASS of suppression make it far harder for me to run and gun between the 3 middle flags, you poke your head out and you are instantly unable to hit a target 50 meters away. Most maps I feel it has improved, though. Bazaar is like this magic new world again.

    Like I said, I havent used it since the patch but before it felt like the M27 was more accurate but less powerful while the RPK was the other way around. However, checking Battlelog, apparently Im more accurate with the RPK and I killed faster with the M27 despite missing so...

    ITT we learn feelings are bullshit.

    Heavy barrel affects the damage. More drastic in the G3.

    You might have a problem if you've got your CPU overclocked. I've got an i5 CPU and the game hitches like crazy for some inexplicable reason if I have it overclocked. That's the only thing I can think of.

    Me and Johnny were playing a game last night and some dude was basically 1-shotting us at any distance with an M26 DART and it was super frustrating.

    Yes, it works on any AR that has a Heavy Barrel. It is quite aggravating, because I enjoy Conquest on Operation Metro but now at least 3-4 people a match are abusing the glitch.

    It was amusing last night when I sent a guy a message saying "lol glitch" when he killed me all the way down a hallway in one shot with it, after which he stopped using it.

    Meant to increase accuracy at longer ranges and increase recoil. I don't think it's supposed to affect damage, just accuracy.

    It turns each individual pellet (of which there are 12) into one of the rifle's rounds as fired from the rifle. You essentially have a 12-barreled G3 or whatever you've got it attached to when you use the glitch.

    According to your battlelog you don't have B2K. On your profile look next to your age and there should be a B2K. I don't see one on yours.

    Yeah, I've been looking all over for that (I saw people with that B2K on the forums). I bought it on XBL, so I don't understand why it isn't working for me. Stupid EA with their stupid stuff...

    How'd you manage that without exploding from getting within a hundred feet of some of those invincible telephone poles and light posts? I swear if it weren't for that I'd be a good pilot.

    My iPad came in today and is waiting for me at home.
    Diablo 3 has open beta this weekend.

    But no, I want to shoot stupid people with BFbros on 360 all night (and maybe tomorrow morning, too). I am going to be lighting up the surround sound and turning it up to 11 (more likely 22 or 33, 11 is pretty quiet). Dug, Mink, Johnny, Other bros I expect to see you all there, I'll be getting started around 6 or so PST.

    It was actually pretty goddamn ridiculous, I was hovering next to the house on the other side, a helicopter bumped me and the nose of the plane went through the wall, I killed a sniper inside with the plane's cannon, and then when I tried to ascend (with the nose still inside the building) it flipped and landed like that and I hit E and the flipping plane launched my like a catapult

    Still trying to get the hang of BF coming from MW, but MAN does this game look good. That much I can appreciate already.

    I am so very upset right now. My precious Blackwidow keyboard bit the dust tonight. Pronounced her dead at 11:45pm. Cause of death is a massive internal hemorrhage leaving it stuck in "razer bootloader" mode. I let the BIOS update run for about 4 passes before calling it.

    I am going to call Razer tomorrow and try to get it warrantied. Maybe they will be cool like logitech and do the first replacement with no questions asked, just send it out in the mail. Until than I am stuck with this 10 year old dell rubber dome keyboard. It feels like I am trying on..... god I can't even think of a good analogy, it's just really really bad.

    And we are back in action. I called Razr to get an RMA today. The guy I spoke to wanted to go through a very specific process of loading the firmware from another computer entirly after plugging it in while holding down the FN key. For some reason you can't load the firmware with the computer the malfunction happened on.

    You missed this.

    It's a dumbass glitch. The one where you can silence your mortar at least has some comedy value ;-)
