Usually pointed in the wrong direction as well.

This annoys the shit out of me. Why are the mounted .50s always Russian? Even on the Chinese maps they’re Russian.

Really? I wreck face with those things all the time. Nobody ever sees it coming but I can usually hold off a whole island of people until a sniper finally gets me.

I rarely see anyone using them. Unless they’re wildly firing into thin air.

Honestly, not really… I’m burned out lately on all the issues with BF4. BUT, I’ll give them a shot!

They need to re buff the damage..  
7.62 always does more damage than 5.56..

Why when I hit an enemy with a burst of 5.56,doesn’t his health go down more than 20 at mid-range (50-75 meters)..but he can turn around and hip fire with a 9mm SMG and kill me?  
That’s a call of duty-ism right there..

The 7.62x39 assault class rifles have more recoil on single shot than the SKS..makes total sense..whether you are moving or not.

Chest shot with a 7.62x51mm sniper rifle at close-mid range? Health drops 40 points.. Real life,you’d be on the ground,bleeding out.
