BIPOD (!) feedback

Things improved:

  • horizontal aiming angle is much better
  • bipod detection is better…

Things worsened:

  • …but it sometimes still doesn’t work properly
    Often it can’t deploy on windows. I’m yet to check how it works in the normandy beach bunkers (arguably one of the worst places to bipod).
  • vertical aiming is still trash. I’ll guesstimate there is like 10-15 degree freedom of movement.
  • sometimes the weapon jiggles, the soldier also sometimes jiggle

  • it feels like the recoil is bigger than it used to be, although I had a break so maybe I’m wrong
  • on the left and right edge of the aiming angle the weapon tends to “spring back”

Things not fixed:

  • dispersion is still awful, one taping is a death wish

A wish:

  • coppy this:

    Here I’m bipoded but I still can aim everywhere else, I just don’t get the bonuses. A really nice mechanic on top of increased firing angles.

Overall bipods raised from F rank to D+. Another 1 and 3/4 years and who knows, maybe they will make it into B rank.

I also face the issue with the wooden bunker windows in Moscow where you sometimes need to crouch to trigger the mechanic… or it doesn’t work at all.

Some more thoughts:

  • accuracy is bad as fuck, with some luck and skill player with SMG has better chances of killing me at mid-long range than I have with bipoded MG
  • sometimes deploying doesn’t work on the ground (when I’m prone)
  • when prone I sometimes ket kicked out of the bipod
  • german MGs in stalingrad are still bugged (theiy recoil downwards)
    It’s like 1-2 lines of code guys!!!

I remember, when I joined the game last year the bipods were so stabile and responsible. But then they got subsequently worse with every update…
