    I don't get what PB does, I think a proper anti-cheat system should verify events. Or in other words, the cheaters game does something, victims game says WTF was that. Creating a tally of mismatched ideas of what happened, when the tally gets too high you've identified a cheater. Downside is extra CPU work, but if you've just been deaded, thats acceptable.

    Sounds awesome. Lots of mid-air crashes i can imagine though. Need something like mountain terrain/antennae to make for tactics otherwise it's just an empty field/airspace.

    PKP is my Support weapon of choice. Last night picked up two more service stars for it. Lots of Op Metro/meatgrinding.

    Easy. Holo Sight, Foregrip, Exstended Mag xD

    My accuracy has gone to hell. But I have picked up loads of head shots with the PKP. It seems to fire the bullet spread up the body of the enemy. So aiming mid body allows for severe damage and headshots.

    I use it with a silencer, find it's tighter grouping makes it easier to kill if you keep clicking fire for short bursts.

    I will give that a go. It's high rate of fire also gives a lot of suppression assist and supression kills. To the point that I have fired 187656 rounds to date lol

    My way of avoiding cheaters is to play on a server which has regular admins present!

    That's how I use the PKP without the silencer and I have an O.K accuracy of just above 16%. It is truly deadly though.

    This comparing of guns is like a gathering of children playing Top Trumps.

    The PKP is good, gave it a go over the weekend. Didn't take long at all to progress with it and it definantly helps improve your K/D. I prefere to use the bipod though for better acuracy.

    I am crap with most weapons, oh wait a minute.... M249 with 4x scope for sniping and taking them down one after another. Only thing it's crap for is running and shooting.

    I have been using it a week or so, and currently have 2657 kills with it. Bipod is good if you stick to one location or don't move much. I run and gun with it xD

    I thought it was awesome for running and shooting :p. I have over 2k kills with it. Haven't used it for over a month now as I wanted to try other guns.

    I do tend to hold a postion more especially on maps such as metro where there are a lot of choke points. Foregrip is useful in more open maps though. Need to give it a try.

    Foregrip is great, I hold a position at choke points but I am usually stood up not prone, that way I can shoot at more than one location and not worry about the Bipod getting in the way like it has done in the past.

    I have good control over the PKP after firing for a longish time the recoil seems to not be any kind of issue. Plus single clicking on the mouse I can single shot fire the PKP got a few headshots that way xD

    Yep, the recoil is manageable after a while.

    I think I'm just crap at running and shooting but I am worse with the M249 because it really hurts my arms.

    I use the foregrip with it sometimes but I am still crap when running around with it.

    When I use it to snipe with the scope is when I get some good kills.

    On metro I like to get on the floor with it and snipe through the scope. My best use though was in one of the buildings on metro, upstairs, sniping the enemy who were in the building opposite. Kill after kill.

    My problem is when I run around and shoot I panic when I confront someone sometimes and don't aim properly. Having said that I still win quite a few shootouts with people.

    I like to get in on the action, I don't stand back and LMG snipe people from far back at B. Though if the team I am has pushed right back to doors of A. I sit near lockers and shoot down the right side. Supression fire and plenty of kills. Currently using the PKP I have a kill streak of 17.

    I'm kinda proud of that, as I could just M320 constant and get a higher kill streak.

    Running up the escalators I will typically fire M320 smoke first, then run up and shoot everything.
