... could you maybe, take a momemtn to realise, that you're supposed to be posting about the video, and that those semi automatics, while doing less damage, fire MUCH faster, and on average get more kills? do you know why? they're more forgiving, sniping in this game is hard as hell, and anything that makes your weapon more forgiving makes it more lethal overall... you may be an expert, but that doesn't mean the hundreds of other players are, or ever will be for that matter.

The new missile launchers are not the same in any way, they are all completly different launchers; they're like comparing a bear to a lion, sure they both hunt, kill things, and are effective, but they are not the same, and do not operate within the same environment, or use the same tactics and strategies.
