Problem with current deviation in far distance combat

[007.SirBond]

The problem is when you and the enemy spot each other at 100 meters. Both of you stop and steady your devation to hit each other.

Now currently deviation is not effected when being struck by a round. Therefore even if one player gets hit first, they are still able to land a hit on the other. This results in the survivor in bleeding after the firefight.

I don't think in real life, this is the norm.

I mean even in the wild west, during gun duels, there was enough force to affect his aim so as he wudnt be able to land a shot on the other guy who shot him first and they were about 10 to 20 meters apart.

It is a bit unrealistic, but this that you suggested is probably impossible to do on BF2 engine.

Maybe when you take your initial hit your screen could flash black so you cant see what your aiming at or/and your ability to shot could "freeze" up so you cant return fire briefly.

Well PR is only a game (and just in case DEVs read this PR is the only reason to live ) and think of this - in rl, if you get shot like in PR (20 7.62x51mm from G3 on full auto slicing through you body), you are a dead man, in PR if you get shot, you still live and if DEVs made those changes, you would only have to look at the enemy killing you without any chance to strike back.

Must say I am pretty much satisfied with blood screen when hit as it is. But really don't know, how it would change gameplay, if we had something like you suggested.

I like it how it is now. At the end of the day PR is still an FPS, not a military simulator.

Deviation will get a complete overhaul in 1.0.

Forgot to add in my post, yeah...

Yeeee!

Although i'm actually quite used to it now.. Getting headshots from sprint better than the other guy!

Thank god. Lately I find myself using a grenade or risk sneaking up on enemy infantry if they're more than 10 feet away. Winning a firefight even with clear element of surprise is a **** shoot(no pun intended).

You're obviously doing it wrong.

If you're good you might be able to get three players of a squad if you surprise them. Although going by the attacks on Coalition forces in Afghanistan by ANA policemen that 'turned', that seems the right number.

You only have 30 rounds for most guns - if you ambush a squad of six, that's only 5 rounds each max. Less with the G3 (only 3 rounds each[ish]).

It is possible to kill an entire enemy squad, but it relies on them being trapped in a building and also being fairly inept. Otherwise they have a habit of running everywhere with full sprint, and accidentally flanking you and messily killing you.

That's why it's important to have 5 other guys with you and a medic

helps to have the machine gun and run up on em
