I just tested out sprinting with the M203 selected and you can sprint with it.

Gerv, it seems you frequently complain about how MP games just dissolve into a retard deathmatch game where people just run around like morons. You can't do that here. The idea is you're supposed to stay together as a squad, using all the different weapons in your squad as they're supposed to be used. You should always have a sniper, SAW/RPK, and a rifleman together, and alternate point man positions as needed.

As for having no clue where you got shot from, there seems to be an issue, and a pretty severe issue at that, where people can see your player model and yet you can't see around a corner. I've noticed before getting shot when I'm behind a wall, so that's obviously a big deal. See this thread for reference.

But going back to your first point, what's bad about dying in one shot? You run across a street with no cover fire from a SAW/RPK, what do you expect? I'd much prefer getting a kill in one shot than having to fill the guy with lead 4-6 times to kill him. Newsflash, if you get hit in the chest with a rifle round, you're ineffective, even if you don't die right away. Since video games can't simulate being ineffective on the battlefield, you simply die. I believe further down the road they will implement a wounded system where sometimes if hit in the chest you fall to the ground, and it's up to the Corpsman to medic you and get you back on your feet.

In real warfare, getting hit in many places with one round will kill you. If you're hit in the thigh, if it severs your femoral artery, you will die from blood loss (almost 100% chance unless immediately treated in a hospital). If you get hit in the arm and it severs your brachial artery, you have a 70% chance of death. At least this game is gracious enough to allow you to get hit 2-4 times in a limb and stay alive. BTW, your femoral artery is pretty large, and it's not hard to hit it if you're hit in the leg.
