Weapons firing above 950 RPM experience no recoil for the first few shots. The best Symthic has figured it out is that the weapons are firing faster than recoil is applied.

So it's not so much that the Famas (or any weapon at or above 950rpm) is OP. It's the fact that the netcode has a hard time dealing with such high RPMs. From the reviews of the weapons in CTE, the Famas has been made better. Sure, it's RPM has dropped from 1,000 to 900, but the recoil is now manageable, it has a standard 30rnd back (up from 25rnds), reloads have been shortened. Essentially it is now a bullpup AEK for more manageable recoil making it better at the medium to long range engagements. If anything, the new Famas will be OP.

I think you have that backwards. If the netcode has a hard time dealing with such high rpms, then high rpms are OP.

I still maintain that any weapon that Wabbit kills me with is OP.

...that's my story and I'm sticking with it.

Sounds good to me. I've equipped the loadout: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/loadout/superwabbit/240668312/pc/#overview
