    What happened to weapon handling?

    What happened to weapon handling? I hadn't played since before 1.4 and I played for a bit a few weekends ago when there was a 50% sale. Recoil seems to have increased substantially since I had played last. It's bad enough that we are dealing with bullet sponges that take several clips to kill but now we have to be at point-blank range just to get our bullets to to strike reliably. All while fighting an enemy that can one shot us from 50 meters with a shotgun.

    I think they are trying to run this game in the ground so they can shut the servers down. They only have a few thousand more users to get rid of.

    I was wondering that myself but couldn't decide if it's in my head or not.
    Since the last maintenance,I can't seem to hit the broadside of a barn from the inside.

    Anybody else notice a serious change since Thursday/Friday?

    I haven't noticed any change to my G-36's recoil since the maintenance.

    Rummaged through my stash and found a g36 in there that goes nice with my M4.
    Thinking of bringing out my MDR instead of m4 as a playmate.

    Well seeing as this game is based around people shotting 65 round magazines in the head of enemies i never expected the gun handling to be good, it was never great actualy

    For shotgun like super90, I think quick magazine are good. But extended for everything else.
