When I want to play a slower-paced (amazing game), then chess is definitely one of the options. When I want a faster-paced, exciting gaming option, then I look at BF, COD, TF, etc. ---

I’m 35 and I know plenty of people my age who play video games still as well as much older people. My father enjoys the campaigns from BF and CoD, but he won’t play online because he says there’s “too many loud mouthed kids on there”. I’ve got several friends in GTA Online in their 60s who love to drive the cars around and play the races and other non-combat related game modes. Most of those guys aren’t so into the combat, but a few are and do pretty good. I haven’t played BF with anyone that old, but I’m sure they’re out there. I do know a couple guys my age, but most of the guys I play BF with are in their mid-twenties, ie 10 years younger than I. ---

This is true. In BF3 I eventually stuck with the M417 DMR (why no in bf4 DICE??) because I found it performed well at all ranges with a foregrip, KOBRA, and laser and it had the most amazing sound when it fired unsuppressed. Intimidating sound. My other gun in that game was the AS-VAL, which I could use in any class. BF4 I would say the ACE21CQB before the 1st shot recoil got increased (it got the same change the ACE23 did) and it made it less user-friendly; I now use the M4 across all classes and have found it very good. MTAR-21 is good, if you get used to switching to single fire for long range, otherwise the spread makes it nigh on useless. ---

Why on earth would you use a non-magnified scope on a weapon thats most effective with at least a 3.4x??? ---

Because I’m used to the Kobra. Its reticle is good for judging distance. I do sometimes use the M145 on rush maps. Depends on my range requirements. I’m usually pretty aggressive as a recon and don’t require a 3.4x because I’m usually within typical AR range or closer. I don’t want any magnification if I’m right in the . The M417 is really good for CQB and it’s my top weapon, so I’m used to it. SKS with irons is pretty sweet too. YMMV ---

37 here. Banned from most UK servers on bf4 & 3. I’m better now then my early 20s. For one I don’t get that adrenalin feeling anymore, my knowledge is far better, my Spidey senses have grown and my mouse Sens has got so low that I never miss with accuracy just under 30%. Accusations flying for days! ---
