why does security with ak give some people 'faction identity ptsd'?

[Zhong Xina]

what are you going to do about security players using ak they picked up from the ground?

anyone that doesn't like the new weapon restrictions and plays with devs in livestream events as security should pick up ak from the ground as protest lol

You might be taking things too far.

Commie guns just dont perform that well anymore. People are moving on. East European nations who are making their own AK:s are also moving to Nato standard rifles. The deals with americans are just so much better. Soon we'll be armed to teeth.

Yes but middle east countries still have a ton of AKs and if you look for combat videos in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, etc you will see a lot of AKs on hands of local armies and insurgencies.

Fr its not that big a deal but i still really hate it but it really does not make sense to make the ak style weapons for insurgents only. This game takes place in the middle east clearly and all it takes is 3 sec of google searching to see the ak style weapons are used on both sides 80% of the time.

This Is what I was doing in Ins2 because in co-op you could only play as a security and everytime I kill an enemy I pick his AK, RPK etc. from the ground and then in Sandstorm I was glad that I can use weapons from the oppose faction and customize it but we can't now because of that stupid change.
