Thanks in advance for your time.
I got this game a week ago when Steam had it on sale for $6 and I'm loving it. Absolutely FANTASTIC map construction, I've never seen anything like it (mostly played CoD and CS for my FPS experience). However, I am a little bit in the dark on a few things, and I wanted to see about borrowing some wisdom from those of you that have been playing this for some time now. I studied the chart, and read through some of the recent "best gun" posts, but wanted to clarify a few things. So without further adieu:
Is the M14 any good? I can't seem to get the hang of it, but I haven't tried very hard. I just badly want there to be a good DMR for when I want to play Assault AND have C4! Is there a better option for this?
The "recoil" in this game seems to be very "fuzzy". What I mean specifically is really the gun animation I suppose, and it's most prevalent on the AEK I think. Is this strictly a visual effect, where the gun kicks vertically but the "crosshairs" don't, similar to some of the CoD guns?
Is there any point in using Magnum on the sniper rifles? I see that it's Bullet Damage x 1.5, but since they're all 1HK headshot anyway... Is it really worth it in place of say, Body Armor or the Spotting Scope? And I'm assuming that for the rest of the guns, Magnum is really the only way to go? Such a damn shame, like Stopping Power in CoD. There are some cool specializations in that slot that won't ever see use
What's the max range on the Spotting Scope? Does it spot automatically or...? I can't seem to get any consistent performance out of it.
And finally, after 40-something posts, I get to say this:
You Are My Bro, Bro.
