    They are basically the same gun on the outside, theres only real differences in the inside.

    you you realize how old that pic is? That pic was released before BF2 came out, it was in the early alpha builds of BF2 and if you look you will in fact see its the center island of Zartar Wetlands, with not much texture, overgrowth and statics applied to it as its in there alpha build, with loads of photoshop filters applied to the image to make it look "cool". It is not BF3 the image has been on the net for over 4 years?

        Yeah, you can even see from graphics it's BF2 (albeit with an absolute shed load of Photoshop effects)

          So basically, you dont really know, and are just guessing.

          :laugh:

            you didn't even know there was a difference between a M4 or M4A1 so I wouldn't talk like you know anything :p

            The fact is if its a real photo, its a M4 thats fact. But if its not a real photo which it most likly is not cos of the way that guy is "posing" as you put it, it is a 50-50 chance. It could even be a BB gun :p

            EDIT: if you gave me the gun I could tell you in a few secs if it was a M4 or a M4A1 :p

                They probably don't want to say too much about something they're not even half-finished with.

                If BF3 is anything like BFBC I'm happy.

                  more or less yes, but there are other minor visual differences :)

                    Hence you dont see me being a smartas5. However, since you dont really know what gun hes holding, and are guessing based on stats, even though its known that both M4A1 and M4 are being used in Iraq, gives you limited credibility aswell, dont you think?

                    Amusing, but we were talking about how the guy was holding the weapon...

                    The fact is if its a real photo, its a M4 thats fact. But if its not a real photo which it most likly is not cos of the way that guy is "posing" as you put it, it is a 50-50 chance. It could even be a BB gun :p
                    Mhm, even though you just earlier said that theres a 10% chance that its an M4A1. So once again, you dont really know. So where did the whole "facts" and "wrong" came from?

                    Didnt you say that you havent held an M4A1? Or that apart from the selector switch, you cant even make a difference between the two?

                    So I think its funny when the "Project Reality" experts, being beaten in their own game, quickly switch topics to still appear adequate and knowledgeable.

                    EDIT: if you gave me the gun I could tell you in a few secs if it was a M4 or a M4A1 :p
                    You have a picture, and a clear set of eyes. Oh wait, you cant see?

                    :laugh:

                    Like I said, dont try to be a smartarse.

                        no cos in r/l things are much higher rez, where that pic its not, and it only shows the right side of the weapon where like waaah_wah, one if the essayist points to see if it was a M4 or M4A1 would be on the left side of the weapon where the fire mode switch is :)

                        again, your trying to be the smart *** here by claiming that holding a rifle is more comfortable then holding it in its popper and this is how r/l soliders hold there weapons?

                        If you want I can get some one on here who is a US Army solider to confirm that I'm saying if that helps you?

                        EDIT: anyways I've got better things to do than argue on the internet over a pic in a mag...

                          You dont say... I dont have my wrench with me, so we cant repair your sarcasm detector.

                          again, your trying to be the smart *** here by claiming that holding a rifle is more comfortable then holding it in its popper and this is how r/l soliders hold there weapons?
                          Actually, I never claimed that soldiers use their weapons while holding this on a regular basis, I merely explained to you WHY some people prefer to hold their M16 type carbine by the magwell, and you can ask anyone who has operated one, if it holds true.

                          Less control over recoil- yes
                          More control over rifle- yes

                          Two separate things. And you yourself said youve never held an M4A1, so you wouldnt know, would you?

                          If you want I can get some one on here who is a US Army solider to confirm that I'm saying if that helps you?
                          Just please, dont ask someone of your "army buddies" who has gone through 2 months of basic, to do the talking.

                          You dont believe me? Thats fine, except that this very same picture youre watching, is a living proof of what Im saying. Be he a professional, or a poser, hes holding the gun that way, because its more comfortable.

                            You'd think that this thread would be about Battlefield 3 confirmation, not which gun the promo soldier is holding. Jesus.

                              Youd think that everything in that article, everything in the original thought of this thread, weve knew and discussed through months ago. Jesus.

                              Pay close attention, people even pointed out the BF2 promo pic (doesnt come close to DICEs "Highway Tampa- NEW MAP!" fail, but still...). Hence the original topic being, for the lack of better words, boring.
