BF3 No One Hit Body Kills with Snipers, More Weapon Recoil, and More
When asked about the AK47 and the two M16′s, Kertz stated, “the M16A3 and M16A4 are both in the game, [this] was decided after the fact sheet was printed.” What could be the in-game difference between the two is still unknown. Perhaps they are meant for different classes? In regard to the AK47, Kertz said the “AK47 is obsolete. We have the AK74M.”
Kertz also talked about weapon customization. Weapon optics were a point of interest for many fans. When asked about the recently announced enhanced night vision, Kertz stated, “the ENV is a weapon optic. It only turns on when you zoom in. There is no always on ENV. It cannot be disabled in zoom either.” In regards to side arms, Kertz said there will be “no pistol customization, but a wide variety will be available.” Kertz was also asked if all weapons could have suppressors attached to them. He answered, “not shotguns, pretty much everything else. Some are more effective than others.” He also mentioned the flashlight attachment. “Shadows play a big role, and flashlights make a big difference.”
Kertz also elaborated on bullet drop saying, “gravity is the same but velocity is different giving [bullets] different drops and travel time at the same ranges.” He added, “the distances are larger so the drop has been tweaked accordingly.”
Another interesting feature that was shown in the latest tailer was the scope glint on the weapon optics. Kertz informed us “glint is based on the scope. Out a high zoom scope on a AR will give glint too.” When asked about whether glint would be noticeable only if the enemy is aiming at the player or not, Kertz confirmed, “yes it’s directional.”
A hot topic about weapons that was noticeable in the leaked alpha footage was regarding the recoil. Daniel “zh1n0″ Matros replied to the question of whether or not there is more weapon recoil by stating “yes, depends on what guns you pick.”
One very interesting, and potentially controversial statement that Kertz made was, “there are no 1 hit body kills with sniper rifles. Pull your side arm or use a semi auto for fast follow up hits.

But, if the bullet was to hit your artery in your arm you would die within 30 seconds, But still hit in the leg wouldn't kill you unless it was a calibre and just took it off lol.

PrinceMysteryTrue 1 Hit Kills in the arm are unreaistic, but what about in the chest?Stevs I guess i'm not sniping then :/
Why are the developer's so retarded!
BF3 is going for REALISM. Let me ask you this, is being shot in the forearm an instant kill? No it's not. I'm actually quite happy that it's no instant kill to limbs. But did he mention being shot in the head won't be instant kill? Nope, because it most likely is.
I for one am looking forward to BF3 more than MW3. Oh, and for reference I have always loved the COD series. So it's not a one sided thing.

this hole realism crap is just that CRAP!
if you want realism, then if shot in the leg, the player should not be able to run period! you should bleed out slowly. and if your going to have 'medics' work on you, it should be realistic and take a while!
if you get shot in the right shoulder then you cant hold up your rifle to shot correctly!
wtf is it with you guys and 'realism'?
its not in the game!!!!

I think the sniper is going to be just like BFBC2...at long range body hits didnt kill, but at close range it did...thts what i think. And if snipers were to be one hit then everyone would use a sniper because the maps are so big and you can easily spot people

-KrazeBlakeaphobia I liked Bad Company 2 for 1 hit kills even on body. The fact that they're getting rid of that is disappointing.
It's going to end up like Black Ops sniping if they nerf the snipers like that. :(
BC2 was never a 1 hit body kill unless you were really close to them, it has always been hitmarker'd from neck to toe; only headshots were 1 shot kill...
M95 is always a one hit kill for chest and head. I've even one hit killed with the first bolt action sniper. As long as you have magnum ammo, you're likely to get one hit kill to the body
