[Q] How to achieve maximum accuracy with rifles/mg - Page 2

When you use ironsights you can watch your character align their rear sights with their front sights slowly. Does that animation have anything to do with the current state of your deviation?

If not I really think PR could do with some visual cue as to the state of your deviation.

Visual cues would be nice and thanks for the post!

A rifle doesn't operate with a cone of fire in real life, it's going to hit where you point it, but this is implemented here for gameplay just as a visual cue would be implemented for gameplay. That said, becoming familiar with the deviation time and getting in the routine of resting for several seconds before firing your first shot means you do not need a visual cue.

excatly, im sure everyone here can count to five, so a visual cue shouldnt really be necessary

Wrong. Don't you think it's a little tacky that we're expected to count under our breath before shooting? This is warfare, not hopscotch!

I've heard here-say that we may be getting a deviation indicator in a while. Might just be rumors.

But I have to agree that visual cues would greatly help newer players get a feel for it. Hell, I think it took me about a year before I really got comfortable with knowing when to shoot based on distance to target, stance, and time spent aiming. It's a tough thing to do and can be very frustrating if you don't know how the system works.

it depends on ping. i've almost completely stopped using scopes becuase i always play on a server where i have 150+ ping so i won't hit anything.
