Some love for DMRs?
One thing is certain with this fast pace, hip fire focused, tiny maps BF6 with tons of accurate weapons the DMRs have no hope of ever being competitive SVK has some use but it’s marginal and it’s r...

I’ve used every DMR and the only real dud is the LMR27. The SVK 8.6 hits like a hammer two shots and done. But sure, if you’re trying to hip-fire a DMR and wondering why it’s not melting people, that might be the problem
Hip fire is more about the fact every other weapon you face is going to hip fire, so the ADS plus TTK make it hopeless. Makes sense but it’s just another weakness when there is so much emphasis on hip fire and cqc in this game. SVDM can be build into a hip fire gun but at the cost of everything else, while most other weapons don’t need to make any sacrifices.
SVK 2 shots with a very slow rpm, effective TTK is hopeless in nearly all ranges, does have some niche where it’s good but the point is that it’s marginal.
Think I remember every death to a DMR since release, that says enough.
I get what you’re saying, and yeah the TTK is pretty bad considering the damage numbers it just doesn’t feel right. The SVK can still two-tap if you land your shots, but DMRs aren’t meant to win hip-fire fights anyway; they’re mid-range precision rifles that reward accuracy and positioning. I also hate the weapon point system it limits a lot of potential setups and kills creativity. Add the bad netcode and hit reg on top of that, and it just makes the whole experience feel worse than it should.
