AN-94(ABAKAN) is actually more lethal now when shooting with Heavy Barrel. I use it in burst mode, previously I couldn't use it with any attachments(Supressor made it weaker in 1-on-1s, and Heavy Barrel was just out of control for my liking). Now it's more steadier with the 2nd burst shot.

Apart from that, I've noticed that we can see our own pings, which I couldn't previously.

Using SOFLAM to target vehicles also bring more points now in Recon class. So far haven't played in Metro yet, huhu. But I've yet to see anyone use USAS-12, from what I've heard it's been nerfed? Haven't seen it for myself so far.

It's just been a few servers that I played(post update) but the vehicle horn is really getting on my nerves, haha.

My favourite shotgun right now is the SAIGA, but I've been meaning to use the DAO once I'm done with it.
I've never tried the USAS-12 but seems like it was a bit overpowered for a shotgun.


Haha, it was announced before the patch. You can buy all unlocks instead of playing through it. You won't get the stats or skill points of course.
Not that I agree with it, but I understand some people have time constraints and I can empathize with them doing so.

Because if you just bought the game now, everyone else most likely have already unlocked everything.

We can argue that skill is skill regardless of weapon, but when most servers are Metro and Caspian(where some unlocks are crucial for survival) I think it's understandable.
In my opinion it allows a more level playing field for those who are busy with study/work.
Basically time=money.

I agree with the running part, the stamina bar should be depleted at a quicker rate if running continously. I know marines/soldiers are mostly athletic but even they would have suffered from fatigue.

It sort of reminds me of COD with the Marathon perk, but not as bad obviously.
