[0860] Weapon - LMG "SAW" - Accuracy

[Fire Fox]

Description:

The LMG "SAW" has the same deviation/accuracy standing, kneeing, proningwhile aming down the sight through the scope. The deviation/accuracy does not effect when you start to shot, its stays the same for all stances

Reproduceibility:

Twice (7 houers in betweeen)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. spawn or request the LMG "saw" kit
2. press 4 to deploy the weapon
3. aim down the scope and wait 5 seconds (to be sure wait 7 seconds) to steady your aim
4. now repeat step 3 with all stances and monitor the accuracy while standing upstraight, knee and prone

Screenshots/Video:

none

Tested On:

Kashan Desert, Training Mode, Local Server

Video Settings (if needed):

none

Additional Notes:

I have tested it for the MEC HK-21E and it has the same issue but its hard to monitor as it dont have a scope. I really suggest a quick bugfix patch should be released as this weapon bug really allowes even the LMG to be more acurate and deadly on long range while standing compared to a sniper/marksman.

This is intentional to simulate deploying the bipod on a ledge/etc. There is a long cooldown in deployed mode after moving to get maximum accuracy to prevent this happening mid-fight.

it should be the same for the sniper rifle with bipods then aswell, if it is what your saying.

I think it pretty much is...

BF2 engine v1.41 is not capable of applying new deviation on every stance change. According to developers posts in offical BF2 1.5 patch forum, some form of prone/stance change deviation is coming to offical 1.5 patch.

what they then atleast can do is to disable W,S,A,D. if your deployed then you cant move if they are trying to achive that the gun is supose to be supported with the bipods for it to be steady. you cant bring your cover/support with you that means you have to stay untill you zoom out, how about that?

[Fire Fox]

this thing should be added to all weapons with bipods, even the marksman weapons
