My exact response as well. Apparently a weapon that you actually have to aim with each of your shots is OP. Ironically the opponents of DMRs usually still can't kill anyone with DMRs but will still claim they are OP. Not that I am accusing anyone of that here.

Dont overreact,
The entire point of this campaign is to get bf4 in a place where everyone enjoys playing.
It says:

DMRs to be analyzed

Which doesnt mean theyre going to be banned.

I for one dont have an opinion on the issue, but if you do just state your arguments for or against, so that the comunity can come to a consencus.

The claims over DMRs being banned is because if we lower the percentile health overall DMRs can 1-hit-kill, but as dan1mall said, they are still being looked at.

^^^^^
This.

Expressing my own opinions: I don't feel we'll please everyone, but we're going to try our best to come to a compromise most folks can live with. With regards to DMRs: listen to the podcast. We haven't settled on Player Health % and, in that context, DMRs may very well be OP.

I appreciate the input, though. Please keep it up.

Following the DMRs topic.

We talked about as some members already mentioned, and we tested some things too after some ppl (officers) left.
We got some of our results, but we're still trying to figure out what's the best for the community when playing with a full server, and we want to test that out in the next battleday.

DMRs= spamming semi-automatic rifle= frustrating death.Seriously though, I don't think there's a lot of skill in clicking(spamming) your left mouse button and holding the right one(you can skip this part),especially SKS .

What are the arguments for lowering the HP?
