I was playing Gulf of Oman as the MEC an hour or so ago and I was a medic. I was at the hotel base and had recently been sniped by someone laying in a grassy area behind the base (I wasn't dead though), so I went behind the hotel to take cover and heal. I do so, and then take out my AK101. Full health, I come around the hotel ready to charge at the sniper, only to find he is coming around the same corner to charge at me with his pistol. I let off the first shots but then this guy releases 1 shot from his pistol and kills me instantly. What's wrong with this picture you ask?
1. The fact that a sniper would come charging at me instead of staying in his spot. There's no worse kit to charge at someone with than a sniper. I am aware that he could have seen I was a medic and sought to prevent me from healing myself, but the odds of an AK101 losing to a pistol during an extremley short range encounter when both soldiers have equal armor is probably about 5:1.
2. He managed to kill me with ONE pistol shot. From my experience even a single HEADshot with the pistol can't kill anyone. If someone could test this though, that would be great.
3. The fact that he managed to survive that burst of AK101.
I have had a similar experience in which I was killed with 1 shot with the sniper's pistol even though I had shot the guy who killed me in a way that was sure to kill him.
