I get killed more times while dug-in than at any other time - why 'cos I can't aim down the sight - so I have no idea where I'm firing - the only time I can do this is when fighting with a German weapon that has a scope.
The same thing happens with the .30 cal or german light machine gun when fired from behind cover.
It wasn't a problem while I was playing first time around you get the aimpopint - but I'm playing through on Authentic and its losing a lot of the authentisity when you can't aim right - hopefully a patch can sort this out.
