As far as I know, yes. This is true of nearly all games on Steam.

I believe so , however steam recieves patches later on than the rest of people due to the fact that they have to authorise it before they can throw it out to the public.

Okay...So what about medium range?
Thank god , no shotgun fixes!
Boo, no shotgun fixes
It's fun n'all dropping on slugs and MGM and head-shotting folk 300m away but really they need hit registry to be improved, sometimes you can just be stood 3m from someone and only 1/4 pump action shots will actually register.

GOL Short range is 8m, Long range is 25m. Base damage at 8m or less is 100, base damage at 25m or more is 70. The damage curve drops evenly between the two ranges and damage values. So at about 16 meters, it does about 85 damage for a bodyshot with no magnum ammo.
I thought it already had everything but the grenade launcher?
Nice one, cheers.... quite odd to see the GOL is the worst for damage at long range. I'm guessing there's no way to bump the M95 long range body shot with magnum ammo to be a one-shot?
Well that's not much good, considering I can't even see the pingsFixes said:

I think the damage values for the M95 were deliberately set so you can't 1 hit kill with a bodyshot at all at long range. You can one hit kill with a bodyshot at up to 40m though. Try taking it with a red dot sight/4x zoom.
Also, for ping list in browser run with admin privileges. Source: http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/
Doesn't work for me, setting "Run as Administrator" on the .exe gives this when I try to load it through Steam.

Too right - same scenrio happened to me last night. Emptied 6 shells into someone at 2m, and then they ran away leaving me perplexed! Did sound good in the confines of a container.
Who the hell is going to be using a sniper rifle at under 8 metres?
I play close range recon with the M95 (I used the M24 until I unlocked it). I bodyshot and dead at that range is great against a squad, because you can kill one with that, 1-2 with the 1911 and then another 1-2 with the knife. It's also good if you happen to run into a sneaky guy in your base.
Shoot it with a tracer dart first or get someone else to. When you zoom with your RPG, you should see a small red box on the tank (even if you can't see the tank). Aim at this box until you see a range appear underneath it, then aim up and fire.

lol i have went around a corner and then there was someone, then you just put the rifle on their chest and pull the trigger
Once someone has placed a traced dart on the vehicle, an orange box will appear when you look down the sights of the first 2 launchers. Wait until you see the distance has been calculated, then fire and forget.
