DICE\u2019s senior gameplay designer, Alan Kertz, has listed some of the gameplay updates that the developer is currently working to implement in Battlefield 3.<\/p>\n
Apparently players have been complaining about a problem which occurs when playing the recon class.<\/p>\n
Players have been experiencing extreme inaccuracy when firing very soon after aiming down the scope using the red dot or holographic sight.<\/p>\n
The theory that this is a deliberate nerf intended to prevent \u201cquick-scoping\u201d has been squashed, and Kertz has stated that this is a problem that will be fixed soon.<\/p>\n
In response to players complaining about the M320 grenade launcher, Kertz suggested that perhaps \u201cthe refill speed [when replenishing ammo] on them is too fast\u201d and that he \u201cwill update.\u201d<\/p>\n
He also mentioned possibly nerfing the Javelin anti-aircraft missile launcher, specifically against helicopters.<\/p>\n
The .44 Magnum on the other hand, will be seeing \u201csome love\u201d in the near future.<\/p>\n
One player complained that the hand-gun is severely underpowered, saying \u201cI love the .44 Magnum but don\u2019t you think 5 hit kill at range is a little much? It has 6 rounds.\u201d Kertz responded \u201cwe agree, you and I.\u201d<\/p>\n
We can hope to see some of the above mentioned tweaks made in the forthcoming February patch.<\/p>\n
