this. epic firefights, and if you had a really good surprise position from behind you could actually get more than 1 guy.Souls Of Mischief wrote:0.6 deviation was awesome. People actually used cover and were scared to get shot. Good times along with 0.5 Albasrah and Muttrah.

Re: Weapon aiming does not fit reality
Scared to get shot? puh-leease, 0.6 also happens to be the version when SAWs were the least used squad-limited kit ever. I think it's also the time when the term "jack-in-the-box-riflemen" was coined.Souls Of Mischief wrote:0.6 deviation was awesome. People actually used cover and were scared to get shot.

There might have been more skill visible shooting-wise, but a lot less tactics.

Ofc they were scared, firefights lasted for about 5 seconds because everything was uber precise. I've seen people spirinting across a street and shooting and killing at 100m+ distance, that was ridiculous.
This summs it up how it was in 0.6-->Vanilla with more damage, period.
We could also make a SW mod if you guys don't want any devation/recoil. Blaster rifles for the win.

Re: Weapon aiming does not fit reality
LOL, okay. Maybe I was the only one who used cover, ordered my squad to suppress the enemies. Least used? I used it quite often when I wasn't a SL.jerkzilla wrote:Scared to get shot? puh-leease, 0.6 also happens to be the version when SAWs were the least used squad-limited kit ever.

Now they are better? Automatic lasers, easiest weapon to use.

I'd say yes. When the enemy SAW deploys now, you NEED to reassess your position. I don't remember having a problem dealing with them in 0.5 and 0.6.
But that's not the point... look, I'm assuming you guys ran 0.5 and/or 0.6 on your own server. Is it private or public? Because if it's private, or used solely by a dedicated community, one of the reasons me and Brainlaag have such different memories as opposed to you might be because we remember pub games, which, well, you know...
