I sue a muzzle break and an angled grip. At medium and short range the initial grouping of shots is more accurate and that normally allows you to fire the 6-8 bullets you need to get the kill. At longer range you end up single or double tap shooting.

Its these short/medium range engagements I find myself in most and I have started winning a lot more of them with Angled + muzzle break than I did with angled and heavy barrel but also I found setting networking smoothing to 0% helped a great deal as well.

Yah... I tend to not have trouble at medium range. I'm thinking where the person is like 3x the height of the RDS dot.
 
-Fixed one of the issues related to the so-called “Netcode” (see below for details) [/B]

“Netcode” improvement
We’ve addressed the so called “Kill trading”. This refers to when two players fire at each other and, seemingly, both die at the same time. The time window where a bullet could cause damage from an already dead player is now calculated as intended, decreasing the timeframe when players with high latency could get a kill, even though they should be dead according to the server.

Kinda funny how patronizing this reads considering the state of the game and patches. Might not be intended that way, since this is the term people use, but I imagine some cool guy using air quotes, while his fly is open and toilet paper is stuck to his shoe.
 
Man, I've got to unlock the MTAR. Seemed like half my deaths yesterday were from MTARs.

Anyone still need this unlocked? Wanna go to low populated server and trade kills?

I unlocked that in cod but in this game it takes forever. It would take some time anyway.

I wont be able to play till late tonight, but if you haven't found anyone by then let me know.
 
I cannot believe how awful the CBJ-MS PDW is. It's so bad we should be allowed to use it on pistol only servers!!! D:

Mtar isn't too hard. The one that is killing me is the LA95 (err I think I have that right). knife, defib, and 40mm in one round. I'm not sure I've ever got a defib kill.

That's for the L85A2, got it in the first round I tried for it.

Hide in a container/train defib ready to go. Wait for someone to open the door. ZAP!
 
Just checked the MTAR assignment. Yeah, shouldn't be too tough, though I've never used any LMG or sniper rifles lol.

Should take, at worst case, a couple of rounds on Locker to get this. Nade spam FTW!

I think it's pistol, defib, 40mm

I usually start with trying to get a defib first before trying the pistol and then the 40mm (from hardest to get to easiest IMO) and it helps to pick servers that have really big ticket counts so the round last long giving you ample time to do the requirements.

I definitely want to do this... but currently in Italy so ping may be an issue. Some servers kick for ping over 100. And I am 6 hours ahead of east coast time too. I want that gun though!
 
Wow yeah game is unplayable. I have SLI and it's just so incredibly annoying to have the entire foreground texture flash constantly. I literally cannot play until they fix this.
 
Childs, you have any tips for attachments on MTAR and how to fire the gun, because it seem like to me that the MTAR have too much recoil when at full automatic
 
Looks like disabling SLI does not fix the issue, the texture is still constantly flashing for me.

But it appears to be deeper than that. Some things are not rendering on screen until I am almost on top of it. For example I was riding a RHIB boat and the water in front of me was clear, until suddenly the wreckage of an attack boat appeared in front of me and I crashed into it.

No issues here on sli. Just played for 2 hours straight, mostly jungle map from CR. No problems.

oops, I just checked & sli was disabled. Enabled it & horrible missing & flashing textures...wow.

Internet in Italy is horrible. Used to live there and it would go out all the time.
 
Seem like everybody having problems with SLi and CFx. I think I will wait for a driver update on both AMD and Nvidia or another patch from DICE.

Whoops, I *thought* I disabled SLI but then I went back to check and realized I clicked to disable it and then left open a window about having to close Chrome first and seemed to have just ignored it and forgot about it!

Now I disabled it and will check again

Edit: Yup disabling SLI removed the problem

Got the MTAR unlocked on my second try, not too bad.

Took forever to get the grenade kill, then took even longer to get the sniper kill. I'll stick to assaults and carbines!
 
The game *feels* different after this patch.

Something with the way we die feels unusual, and I felt like there are more of the getting shot after going behind cover situations and others have commented the same thing.

Also looks like they nerfed the UCAV

Why cant they include all these other changes in their release notes?
