I'm beginning to think that DICE has never held, fired or read any detailed info about the guns they put in their game. For example:
The L96A1: Look at the way he is holding the sniper rifle, if you were to hold it like that it would hurt your arm and make aiming impossible. I have a replica L96A1, you are supposed to put your thumb in the hole in the stock.
P90: In RL this gun has a very high ROF and its rounds are capable of penetrating armor. In the game it has the lowest ROF of all the SMGs and it does less damage than a 9mm pistol.
G3: This gun is 1 meter long and used 7.62mm rounds, it is extremely accurate but its large rounds give it quite a punch(so more recoil). So what does DICE do? They give it the least accuracy of all the assault rifles and the least deviation when going full auto. Just the exact opposite of what the gun is supposed to mimmick.
The G36 series: I have a replica of a G36C w/ the vertical grip and a red dot sight and for long range shooting the vertical grip makes aiming harder, it is meant for CQB yet the G36 is one of the most accurate guns in the game. There is also no three round burst selector on the real gun that I am aware of.
I know DICE is going for weapon balance here, but why the hell give the guns properties opposite the real ones? Why not just put in a different gun that has similar properties? Its apparrent the devs never really even held the guns, so I wonder if they bothered looking up the specs on them.
