Not really, it all boils down to accuracy, people firing at their opposition dont know when they've hit them or how much damage, but when there killed they blame the game. It's like when I go up against Alrik with the shotgun, I know he's going to kill me most of the times as he's a lot more accurate than me in shooting, but thats one of them things.
People often forget about active re-loads and whatnot and cry when they are downed in one shot, I kept doing the active reloads last night thats why I managed to get a lot more kills than I usually do. Its the same game for everyone in the end so there are no advantages (apart from Miss K

) or disadvantes for anyone.
