This game is so much fun/very addicting. I ended up playing for probably 2 hours with the same squad, which all the players were very team oriented, and we were able to win quite a few matches. You defintely get an idea of what everyone is doing, and what kind of strategy they're using. overall, just very fun.
For the first time, I switched up my specialty after I got repeated killed by tanks etc, so I played a few times with an RPG (or whatever it is) and got much needed revenge. Slowly, I'm building up my rank; I unlocked a scope, but haven't been able to attach it yet; not sure what I'm doing wrong (probably), or if the attachment only works on certain guns/maps. I've primarily played as support using the RPK/M416.
I'm off for 5 straight days coming up, and I plan on playing a lot (first time I've had more than 3 days off in a row in 3 years).

Awesome, man. And yeah, this game is amazing once you realize how to go about it.
As far as that scope goes, everything you unlock using a gun is specific to that same gun (with a few exceptions, like when you unlock stuff for the M16A1 it works for M16A3, I think). In other words, every time you select a fresh gun on any class, you start out naked again. The other things you unlock for the class, stay there (like C4 and Mortars, etc).
Also, M416 is my favorite gun so far, but that's an Assault gun. The first American MG is called M27 IAR (it looks like an M416 with an extended mag and a longer barrel, though, lol).
If you want more control over what you start with, I would just put a universal gun for every class, that way you level it up faster (you don't get stuck with 2 different guns depending on what side it puts you on).
