Btw, would just like to add something to the bullet drop. Even though everyone says you will not notice any bullet drop before 500m, you actually do. Especially when aiming for the head, which is necessary to make one-shot kills on distance. As soon as my target is further away than 380-400m, I aim slightly above the head. Otherwise you will just hit his chest and not kill him.

btw what was the issue? Is it a server problem that will be fixed in 1.0? Never experienced something similar like you described. My shots always hit dead on after waiting 7-9 secs after sprinting.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I Think that it's beacuse of the view distance. The game is not showing you exactly were the enemy player is. Don't quote me on it but I Think it is a similar thing to the terrain glitch when you can see enemys on a hill but actually they are behind cover. This is just me bringing up suggestions on why it is like this. Sombody probably know.

I'm not sure about the 1.0 changes but as in 0.98, the Steyr SSG (MEC sniper rifle) seems to be way off. It's the only sniper rifle that constantly misses even on medium ranges.

I'm not sure why it sucks so bad compared to the L115A3, G22, C14 Timberwolf ... but I'm not the only one who noticed that.

All weapons were changed completely for 1.0. No point mentioning the old version anymore ^^

Snipers seem to work fine now.
