I mean It weighs 28 Pounds, and when marching and fighting all day, It wears you out. I think there should be a "Readying" button that would bring the weapon to your hip for close range firing, and then a "Laying" button, this would throw your body down, and you would look down the weapons sights as it rested on it's bi-pod.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

how can they do this in a FPS game , i mean , how can you actually see yourself carrying those guns over the shoulder . the only way i can see this kind of weapon representation is in a 3rd person game . where you actually see your character holding the gun over the shoulder .

but anyway , in the ingame footage , in the beginging , you can see the guy next to you in the higgins holding his gun over the shoulder and in another screenshot you see a guy holding his gun over the shoulder too . so maybe its possible to do it , as in the same way you would press a button to put away your handgun or something .
