I hope you're not expecting a nice even playing field though, semi autos and smg still utterly dominate everything else, and there are still far too many of them available. If I could find populated bolt action rifle only servers I would probably give the game another go.
 
Just a heads up. The Humble Weekly Sale has this for as little as $1.

You would be bonkers to miss out on that price. The new online campaign mode is awesome! Get some practice in for Rising Storm!
