THIS is what i hate about this game more than anything… it breaks the immersion and it looks really dumb… possibly give it a cooldown or make the accuracy bad during the leaning with shooting or disable it and leave it only for the automatic lean when around corner
Leaning on open is hilarious, but it means nothing, it will not even help you with anything. It’s completely pointless.
But it’s still game. What a surprise some individuals will act completely nonsensical, we are on internet.
We shouldn’t be restricted just because some clowns are overusing certain mechanics.
Can we not complain about leaning we need to complain about the camera angle it’s in our neck So leaning doesn’t even help because the camera angles broken
It’s kinda useful, but only in cover. The ability to pop-up and shoot without exposing the whole of your body reduces the chance to be killed by body shot. But the “lean-masters” that do it in the open gain nothing, because leaning messes up your aim and while making it harder to headshot, they will definitely die to the gut shot instead.
A possible way to limit this is give more dispersion and/or more recoil just during changing position from straight to lean (not while at lean), as well as add a little more time to change position to lean or change back from lean, so people have to be prepared to lean and shoot, not leaning left or right randomly and frequently, otherwise they will have reduced firepower.
which adamn forgets that people complained about historical accuracy and matter of fact, devs did removed the actual panther F from the battle of berlin and replaced it with a panther g.
( the panther F can still be found in the editor and used in mods )
In other games which have long TTK, that reduced chance of headshot do help, but here, shot in centre of body is usually still lethal (also large impact on aimed direction), so that “lean technique” will not be practically effective.
I think that these leaning guys are more than likely not the kind of player that you will see just blindly running into battle and getting shot to bits time and again. They keybind so’s that they can play with tactics, showing very little of themselves when in doorways and obstacle’s etc. I`m sure it works for them, so why not, even if it does look a little silly out in the open.
