I would never know where to aim..

It would essentially negate sights all together unless you are firing within 100 yards.

If you had sights that wobbled around you would never have a clear point of aim since it would never match up with the actual aiming point of the round.

So you are saying realism is horrible? And you are also saying having no clear point of where you are going to aim is horrible? guess aiming straight on a target without a ''slight'' sway and shooting 5 meters left of it is realistic yes

If you were shooting at longer range, which I do a lot, the sway movement would throw your shot off even more the further out you are shooting.
Realism IRL you have a sway, im just suggesting a slight visual sway wich covers the weard looking ''i aim on a guy but my bullit missed tottaly, WTF''
also it wouldnt shoot any further becouse the cone has been narrowed, wich makes bullit dont come out of the side of the barrel anymore

Say a sway that would sway around in a 1 meter circle at 100 yards, that would be just multiplied at a range of 500 yards, added to the standard deviation. With no center point of reference to know where you are aiming for sure, no matter how long you settle. There would be no way you could make a shot.
Read the post, i said a slight sway not a sway of 1 meter

Basically what everyone here is crying about is not wanting to wait a second or two longer for an accurate shot, if you do that in real life, you will miss.
We are not crying, we want realism, not bullits coming out of the side of the barrel, and irl you should know when you are about to be ready, and you will never be able to keep youre rifle fully steady.

I've used the rifles in PR and I make long shots all the time with no problem, in fact the M4 with the ACOG scope is just as good as the M14, just with the M14 I get more positive kills, with better zoom.
Something is wrong then

Get over it people.
