Now don't get me wrong guys, I believe Battlefield screwed up with their sniper rifles, making them nearly all bolt action and to cycle you need to unscope, but in doing so they balanced it. But they are unbelievably good at making a game people love. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I have never heard a BF fan complain about noob-tubing, no-scoping, quick-scoping, hatching, and glitching (I may be wrong). This proves that they know what they're doing. But I just don't like the amount of realism in it. I played BFBC:2 online before, crept up on some guy to knife him expecting a quick, easy kill. This was not the case. My guy pulled out his knife, seemed to examine it for all of eternity and then swung it downwards. The guy had turned around with his AR and out me into the ground before I could knife him, despite my stealthy approach. That being said, again, I do not hate the series, I respect it 100% and kudos for the balancing. Hope everyone enjoys their gaming when these games hit the shelves :)
