assault class are special yet common in battlefield 3
in my opinion
many thought that support class will give better supression but at the same time
carrying those LMG aren't easy either

if you are equipped with
M16A3/AEK-971/AK-74M
try to shoot at enemy location to assist your team
you will see that it have same effect for awhile which is enough

having M320 as underslug also help alot as you fightning in tight corner(never use this though)

weapon like AN-94/F2000 and M416 is firepower > rapid fire
but sadly people tends to use this to camp more
not only easy to aim but have stopping power
eventhough assault is medic
they have to advance first because their weapon is the most stable then other class
even engineer M14A1 and AKS-74u isn't on par with M16A3/AK-47M on accuracy issue
there are also issue with attachment
which many prefer grib/heavy barrel/4xscope(or 3.4)
they tends to be multipurpose player
long range/short range/accuracy

RDS/Holographic is some vets favourite scope which offer fast aim in combat with nice barrel aim
this is what i think of assault class

err you can switch it to auto by clicking default button V
but i warn ya
beginner going to    with that baby recoil

AN94 feels powerful and fires like LMG at fully auto and like LMG the rate of fire is slow, unless you use burst mode.
AEK, felt funny in the beta, so i never bothered to use it so far.
F2000 has the highest rate of fire, again something i dont like cos its hard to conserve ammo, usually 1 clip at fully auto kill roughly 2 ppl due to it blazing thru the ammo real fast.
M416 and M16A3 are the most balanced ones, from stopping power to conserving ammo, usually 1 clip can kill 3-4 ppl since its easier to control the ammo at fully auto.

all my assault rifles always with foregrip and heavy barrel.
scope depends on the rifle and map, some rifle easier with kobra, some with rds, some with holo, so depends.
but they all share the irnv in common when i feel like it.

zefarius here hehehe.

hai oec
hows your BS in UB doing

its smart way for DICE to force players to spend more hours of torture to slowly grind your way up.

and the game has huge balance issues, especially higher rank players vs lower rank players.
