Deployed/Undeployed fire mode bug? (Hopefully the nail in the coffin)

[X-Alt]

After nostalgically loading up PR .973 (Now that I played it again, I don't know why I used to like it better than 1.0) and playing SP, I realized that the deployed/undeployed L86 had multiple fire modes and the magazines were linked between each other. I remember a match on Vadso City in .981 where our Marksman used the L86 as a makeshift AR when we were pinned down by Russian troops, I also remember the RPK-74 had this fire mode ability..

It is a feature than a bug as far as I'm aware. Reason is exactly what you said, some marksman rifles were being used as ARs and it was quite effective. Especially L86 with Iron Sights was like an assault rifle with deploy ability.

Actually, the reason for the removal of full auto in 1.0 is that having multiple fire modes was a major factor in a bug involving ammo not linking between the deployed/undeployed modes. The problem still does occur from time to time, but less frequently now.

So it is more of a "this happens sometimes and when it does can give an unfair benefit" thing, got it. Might want to put this as a Sticky
