Recoil on three shot burst

lonelyjew · Post by **lonelyjew** » 2006-03-19 18:59

Am I the only one who thinks the recoil on the three shot burst is way too strong? Even while you stand it kicks too hard. You're lucky if you can hit a standing target 10m away with all three bullets with how strong the recoil is, and hitting someone in prone is damn near impossible to do with even one bullet. At the moment the three shot burst is useless in every situation other than extreme close quarters spray and pray situations. The lmg's on the other hand are able to hit a small sign(I was shooting at a sign maybe 1ftx2ft) from 50m and get every shot inside it by just unloading.

I personly like the recoil. I only use burst mode when in CQB. If i aint in CQB im in singal at all times. in CQB all you have to do is point the middle of the screen at the target and send off lotso f burts. They panic and if you first burst dont kill them your others probaly will but for me its normaly first burst will kill them

You're right that at ranged combat you should use single shot, but it just isn't right that I couldn't kill a guy at 5-10m with 5 shots of burst while he was prone(I was also).

leave the m16. Fix the Chinese weapons. The AK-47 is better than the m16. Not so in the Mod

The Chinese weapons just don't feel strong enough at all. Feels like you're firing an airsoft gun

not necessarily, they are better in reliability for sure.

M16 is more accurate

the m16 has quite a bit of kick for single shot IRL. i imagine that the burst kicks 5x worse. the ak 47 kicks like an angry mule on crack

I'm not saying get rid of all recoil, but what I said above, where I fired at a guy at a very close range at three shot burst five times, or 15 shots, and he kills me with no problem shouldn't ever happen. It wasn't spray and pray at first either(first two bursts were aimed, spray and pray when he turned around).

Yea, kind of have to agree. I have shot people many times in close quarters, and even when they have full health, it usually takes around 2 3-round burst in order to kill someone. Further away and it is alittle harder, but no where impossible. Point I am trying to make also is that it could be a little less because if the LMGs are that accurate on full auto, this should be more accurate on burst.

The AK needs to be a little bit more accurate as well.
