This in my eyes is a perfect example of what's going on with the levelling system in RO2. Now fellow Charmed has invested a lot of time and effort into the game and probably through his real-life experience, became a better player. He will know the maps better than many other players that didn't invest as much time as Charmed and probably he already knows greatly how to balance or handle weapon sway. All of this is legit and just normal for players that learn the game.
However, what I find is ridiculous is, that Charmed gets additional bonus for being more experienced already. ~10% improvement for aim time. Cool! The new players, or players with less time to play the game have another disadvantage. And it will just increase over time.
Why the hell are unlocks/achievements (that in general I am not completely against) changing the game mechanics, if I might be allowed to call that? Instead of increasing skills mecanically, why not allowing charmed to unlock other skins/uniforms/boots/socks/underwear or even girlfriend picture for his avatar? This would create enough strive to the normal player to achieve them and bind him to the game.
I mostly played Spartanovka so far as the map voting system is a bit confusing to many players I assume. And I see the Russian team almost always winning, because the GER Squad Leader is too busy with laying down spawn exit artillery all the time, rather than throwing smoke. In 90% of the times, the Germans failed to cap the last objective because of now smoke near the building. The Squad Leader was the same person round by round and I am pretty sure that his k/d ratio is high, but the w/l on maps is very low... For me, it's the opposite now, if I wanted it or not....
@Charmed: I am not trying to bash you at all mate. You stated urself that the unlock system is unfair and I just used you as a realtime example. Hope that's okay with you.

at all the people saying to ignore stats and such, when they give you significant boosts to your combat potential. All else being equal, the player with a higher rank will win an engagement. Most of the time it comes down to angles and timing, but sometimes it is just who is higher ranked with the weapon or class or both.
