For some reason all of the weapons are unlocked and it says I have ~3000 kills... WTF?
Did you preorder the digital deluxe version?
The stats servers are messed up from what I can tell.
Is anyone's sound really static sounding? I'm running on my pos motherboard soundcard, but... I switched to digital out and I'm still having the issue. That... and every now and then a server will change maps and half the server loses all sound.
Exactly.the game is no doubt buggy, but its also awesome...they will iron the stuff out...if you arent willing to put up with a few problems give it a month or two, but honestly its already stable enough to enjoy
Does the guy with the fastest PC get it every round? ....
...and getting shot across the map, through smoke and through a fence...totally unrealistic kills...
Yes, generally the first people that load into the map get the sniper slots. It is the same in RO1. On the plus side, snipers rarely dominate a match or round. Learn to use the bolt action rifles effectively, and you will kill at similar ranges with very little trouble.
If you are dying to get your hands on a sniper rifle, hang out with your teams sniper and pick his up when he gets killed, or hunt the enemy sniper and take his.
Don't rely on the "kill cam" to show you exactly where you were shot from. It seems to be buggy, and experienced players shoot and move. So what you see after you get killed is not exact.
Also keep in mind that RO2 has penetration. This means you can be shot through fences doors, and even walls. This is a pretty big leap forward for FPS games.
I am not that experienced with the series but one thing that is annoying is how in the hell do you EVER get the scoped rifle.

Like the poster above said, whoever loads the map 1st. I'm on a Crucial SSD drive, i5 @ 4.2, and once in while someone does load faster than me. :/ Oddly enough I don't choose sniper class, either Advanced Rifleman or Squad Leader are my typical choices, though I may go back to grunt with bolt action with manual bolting.
I love using this, shoot through fences, house walls, etc and randomly get a kill, though I know someone is in the area.
I have to ask...why would you want to use a bolt action vs. a semi auto rifle (squad leader)?
I've only been playing for 45 minutes but I'm continually having trouble identifying friend vs foe targets.

I probably wouldn't as a Squad Leader but while using manual bolting, which I mean as, press mouse button - shoots gun. Press mouse button gun - it bolts another round in. Currently once you shoot it autobolts for you. Which is fine for the most part but there are two reasons for me to consider manual bolting.
1) According to a user post at Tripwires RO2 forum, it's overall fast. Ok, not sure about this myself and ranks very low on my reason to go with bolt rifle.
2) Biggy here, when you shoot, you can see where your shot lands, helpful when you shooting at someone say 125 meters away. Press button to load another round and aim again with the readjustment. So 1st shot was too much leading, reduce it by a hair or more if the shot went behind him.
With autobolting, I'm not able to tell where my shot is landing due to the graphics of the bolting action being "in my way". This will help me become a better at aiming, so when I go back to semi-auto and I flank the Russians reinforcing the church, there will be less of them for the rest of my team to deal with.
How do you set it to manual bolt action vs. auto bolt action? I had no idea this was an option.
Thanks,
Lee
Has anyone else noticed a bit of innacuracy when leaning?
I've found that If I'm hugging a wall and leaning out to make a shot. If the shot i need to make is relatively close, say, less than 30m.
When I take the shot it will be off of where my cross hair is aimed. For example - I lean right, around a corner and shoot. The shot is left of where my crosshair is aimed.
