DMRs need a big change in BF4: Lower RoF, 2-bodyshot kill capability at close ranges and 2-headshot kill capability to 150~200 meters, slightly slower reloading, ability to mount high-magnification scopes and different gun sounds. In my opinion DMRs wouldn't be overpowered because trigger-spamming will result in inaccurate shots and this tactic would be watered down by the lowered RoF and slower reloading. DMRs shouldn't be all-class weapons either. They should be Recon-exclusive and perhaps also available to Support. DICE has completely failed to come up to the meaning of a DMR: Designated Marksman Rifle. Designed to arm spotters, to stand as an alternative to bolt-action sniper rifles and made for accurate kills at long ranges. And what is really odd, is that one has an extremely ineffective weapon for long-ranges, a maximum of a x4 magnification scope but the zeroing feature for up to a 1000m.
