You've always had to unlock attachments except this time, the guns are so bad in base form (except smgs) that it's a real pain in the * to actually level anything up. My first few games I could barely get 3-5 kills with any AR weapon because I was getting melted by Level 60 no-lifer, basement dwelling, streamer sweattard playing 18 hours+ per day. I don't remember them sucking so badly in BF4, BF3, BC2. (I didn't like BF1 or BFV because I don't like WWI/WWII games but those sucked hard also until you levelled them up)
