this is the only game where I f-ing rage constantly.
So many inconsistencies it's ridiculous.
Apparently I am now not able to do 1 hit melee kills meanwhile everyone else can do them
See shots land on enemies but no damage marker
AA blows me to bits in seconds but when I use AA, I can never take out a plane. It always does like 2 damage per hit
Enemy plane gunners shred me in seconds but when I play as gunner, I can land every shot and the damn plane is still flying like nothing is happening
Get shot through walls/rocks constantly
People can stand out in the open and snipe and get kill after kill, meanwhile I fire 1 shot and everyone on the enemy team focuses fire on me
10-A hunter always kills me in 1 hit, and a lot of times from super long range, but when I use it, damage doesn't register or only does like 40 damage half the time
This doesn't take into account the crappy bugs.
I can't find any tactic that works for me to do well. I try to be sneaky and tactical and I get sniped or stabbed in the back. If I try to run and gun I get sniped or killed by a tank (which need to be much louder and more noticeable!).
I do the best when playing as assault and kind of running and gunning.
I really suck at medic. I can't use their guns worth crap. I do better with the Taschenpistole (spelling?). I love that pistol!
Not great at sniping and feel like I am not helping my team when i play it. I always get countersniped no matter what how I try to hide or get behind cover.
I want to like support but the guns are so terribly weak. BAR is ok but the 20 rd mag is too low. Actually most of the guns have too low mags. Around 30 rds for most for an LMG sucks, and they are slow.
Not only that, they do the same damage as SMGs. These guns are firing the same cartridges as the sniper rifles and do SMG damage. Not saying they should do sniper damage but at least medic rifle damage would be fine.
The
machine gun, which so came to dominate and even to personify the battlefields of
World War One, was a fairly primitive device when general war began in August 1914.
Machine guns of all armies were largely of the heavy variety and decidedly ill-suited to portability for use by rapidly advancing infantry troops.

LOL, they certainly don't dominate in BF1!
