After weeks of watching bullets stray off like they had a mind of their own, this latest patch finally feels like the fix we’ve been begging for. The maddening bloom mechanic is gone, so now when your aim is dead-on, shots actually land where they should. The result? Gunplay that rewards skill instead of random luck. And tucked among all the weapon rebalances, one rifle has made a huge leap forward—the AK4D. If you’ve not tried it yet, you might be missing out on something that could change how you play. I first gave it a proper go while running in a Battlefield 6 Bot Lobby, and it instantly felt like a different beast.
The New Feel of the AK4DBefore this update, the AK4D was fine but never really stood out. The TR-7 would beat it close-range, and other rifles held their ground at distance. Now though, it’s hitting like an updated G3—hard damage, solid precision, and that annoying sideways kick dialed way back. A four-shot kill out past 70–75 metres is something you can actually rely on. Whether you’re playing Conquest or Breakthrough, it’ll hold its own at range without suffering the drop-off that ruins so many other guns. Tap firing shreds distant targets, and sustained fire keeps squads off an objective without fighting the rifle’s bounce like before.
Attachments That Unlock Its Full PotentialShooting it stock will get you somewhere, but customising turns it into a proper meta-weapon. My go-to starts with the Lightened Suppressor—ideal for flank routes when you don’t want to give away your position, and now the loss of bullet speed isn’t so painful. I pair it with the Heavy Extended Barrel for extra reach and the 6H64 Vertical Grip to smooth out that upward climb. For larger maps, I swap to the 3VZR optic, which gives just enough zoom to battle DMR users without tunnel vision. With these, the rifle feels balanced—quick enough for close fights but dominant at mid-range.
Why It Beats the CompetitionThe AK4D sits in a sweet spot that few others touch. The M277 still holds up but loses stability past 40 metres, and the TR-7 cannot match this gun once you step beyond point-blank. Its 720 rounds-per-minute rate makes it forgiving if you miss, yet deadly if you stay on target. That rhythm lets you control engagements at almost any range. And if you’re hunting for those later attachments without suffering endless defeats, there’s no shame in hopping into modes with lighter opposition—it’s quicker and far less frustrating.
If you get hands-on with the AK4D now, you’ll see why it’s dominating before the devs inevitably bring the nerf hammer down. Take it for a spin, even if it means spending some time in a cheap Battlefield 6 Bot Lobby to unlock the best gear—you might just find it becomes your go-to rifle.
