"hello soldier, your gun is empty"

Actually, the variable affects not only when your gun is empty, but also when it is low on ammo. I'd like to be totally in control when to check for ammo, and when to reload, as the latter takes more time.

I don't think the reduced fire rate on the fixed MG's is useless, I like to use it so I don't burn through ammo so fast.

If you are in cover and holding a grenade, pressing MMB makes you simply throw the grenade on the other side of the cover. If you're in the upper floors of a building and you know there are enemies outside on the ground, this move becomes invaluable.

[Cpt-Praxius]

If a team mate shot an enemy and they are staggering around in a slow death, if you shoot them yourself and drop them, you get the kill and they just get an assist.

Basically it's stealing a kill, but that's the way it goes.... make sure you drop your target if you want the kill to count.... in other words, don't just shoot a guy and run off leaving them to have a slow death.

• They can shoot you back
• Someone else can easily take the kill from you

Its a feature. The bullet you shoot representing field aid and evacuation to a forward medical station

I have taken out the guy who shot me AND several of his teammates because he has never finished the job. I admit, it is rare when that happens.

Always finish them off. I hate the fact that like "Last Stand", once shot, the staggering victim is automatically aiming back at you and can spray and pray with often good results.

Bandaging will help you look through walls.

You can go to iron sights while shooting and this will immidiately center your aim.

Those are actually bad things (not features) that should be fixed

Just like you can (sometimes) kill people through a wall with the bayonet?

[MostlyHarmless]

Resupply points sets your ammo to a fixed value rathern than suppying you with more. You shouldnt run past them after spawn as they reduce your ammo count.

Example: spawn with 5 magazines, run to ammo dump and you have 3 mags left.

depends on the wall. what wall are you talking about anyway? there's no reason at all you shouldn't be able to stab a guy through a lathe and plaster wall. (the walls in pretty much all houses in the game) but not through a brick wall.

They're not automatically aimed back at you--I've slow-died many a time facing in the wrong direction to return fire. But it is annoying that you can still use iron sights in slow-death mode...

Again, sounds like a bug and NOT a feature
