DICE why do you dislike us using larger ammo mags so much?

I am leveling up the new side arm, VZ.61-whatever and there is so many times where it runs out of ammo with its starting mag  and I can almost picture the face of the enemy who is about to send me to the spawn screen :

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why do these larger mags have both demerits on them and a very forbidding point cost? I do not think anyone will consider worth it to spend half the gun's budget in increased mag size.

  • I must agree heck even the 15-20 mags like who in the right ** mind would go to war with a 10-20 mag you can barley kill one person with that then its reload time and  any mag should be normal at 31 bullets if its a carbine or rifle in general period u can have the mags featured where you can go down but some those start at 21 bullets absolutely ridiculous  i mean i dont even use them just bc the little ammo it holds and it takes forever to get an extend clip then the max is 25 or something thats stupid to like wydym..? Makes no sense to me either oh well i suppose great guns but idk what they were thinking with that horrible decision in my opinion 

  • There are multiple issues at play here.

    1) Hit registration - if you shoot all the rounds and not all of them even hit the target, you can't kill it.

    2) Tick Rate - I cannot prove but I believe the hit registration issue is partly due to server tick rate. This really negatively affects the fastest firing guns in the game (ALL OF THEM!). This is why the biggest mags win.

    3) Bloom, recoil and aim assist - I have yet to kill someone with the VZ61 in 1 mag. I have it at level 20, not hard but, as I said, I have yet to single mag kill someone with it. Now, when I die to it, from full HP to dead and it is a controller user, I know the game gave them the kill. This is because... Tick Rate benefits consoles, 25% reduced recoil and reduced bloom and aim assist, give the controller a distinct advantage over M&K and this is the result.

    If all conditions were perfect, tick rate, hit registration and level playing field, you wouldn't need en entire mag to get a kill, maybe even get 2 kills in one 15 round mag.

    Here on PC I have taken down foes with the 10 mag, but just a few misses and the other guy will get a free kill on you. It helps if I feather the trigger a bit.
