I think the L85A2 is the best assault rifle, the damage is slightly lower than other rifles but the precision is amazing, I take out enemy snipers on long range all the time. Thus this weapon is best in a bit more open areas like Metro in the garden or Karkand. I only use reflex or holographic sights on my assault rifles as the others limit the field of view too much. For closer combat I switch between almost all assault rifles to try to get all unlocks and because they are not that different.

Well if you can control the full-auto by firing only 5-7 rounds at a time, it'll be better than the 3 round burst, because you get more damage faster, and accuracy isn't really sacrificed.

The L85A2 is gonna get a pretty good boost with the next patch. I'm gonna be checking it out after that.

Unfortunately, (imo), the patch fixes the op-ness of frag rounds partially, but it doesn't do much to reduce the effect of the other ammunition choices.

At close quarters, none. Forgive me for speaking anecdote-ly (I don't feel like checking the stats), but I remember making a mental note that about 5-6 pellets at maximum damage kills.
A question to you usas fraground haters/lovers, do you play on consoles? Because i hate the usas with fragrounds, cant kill shit with that gun. The only situation where this gun is good is in the metro tunnel when you flank a group of enemys and just spam or shoot down the left corridor (as RU) and get kills because the splash kills the million guys that usually stand there. In a standard 1on1 situation i almost always lose. Also i very rarely get killed by someone with fragrounds. I can only imagine that the usas is op on consoles because aiming is harder there and with the usas you dont really need to be precise like with other guns.
To the MOH video: In the description on youtube it says the developer is Danger Close not DICE
I play on XBox, and all I can say is that it is like being shot at by a tank, but it's just some dude with a shotgun.
Shotguns have always been good upclose in BF, but the effective range on the USAS is sick atm. Like I say, we'll see how it works after the reduction in pellets. A similar thing happened to some gun in CoD (I forget which gun, maybe striker?), and it was a very big nerf.

What makes you think this is a CoD wannabe? MoH has its own history.

I'd probably choose the L85A2 over any other weapon for ANY situation other then close-quarters. Unfortunatly such engagement often occure when fighting over objectives, even on large maps. The weapon look badass too :D
