New Deviation - small request

Hi!

I hope you don't mind if I put up a completely new thread for such a small request. I don't want to suggest or change anything concerning how deviation works. I just saw in the gameplay video that sometimes you hit where you aim right after stopping, and sometimes you are lying around and shoot but miss. At least that's how it looked like in the video.

Once the deviation system is set to its final stage (= finished working on it), can you post a video where you have some kind of crosshair indicator or something like that, and run, jump, prone and camp through a map, so we can see how it actually works? Perhaps even for different weapons?

I think this would be only fair, as usually you feel how good your aiming is and you know how likely you will hit something, but in PR you get no feedback regarding this. So give us a video to show it, next to the fact that I would find it most interesting to see how it works, simply from a "technical" point of view, not only from "performance maximizing" view. You know what I mean, "now THAT's how deviation is working - interesting!".

nedlands used to do a complete explanation of the deviation after each new system (based on the mod weapon files). I hope someone do that when 1.0 comes out.

Still an explanation or testing a bit by observing bullet holes is not the same like actually seeing the deviation area spread or shrink. I know about those explanations (5s rule and so on), but I'd like to see it like you can with those "brackets" the US HAT has for example.

Why not just... train with the weapons and see it for yourself?

That^! Hardly there is a need for DEVs to do that when it lies in your interest and how dedicated you are. Want to become better, join a organized tournament/team/clan or do it on your free time.

Shooting myself wouldn't be the same like actually seeing it. I'd like to see how it is changing, e.g. does it change smoothly or in steps every second? How much does swinging affect it? And other questions. In my opinion bullet holes are only a really unpercise way to measure this. I like to know things for sure, and not only "it's roughly that way... somehow...".
