Handling
What firing does to your view
The muzzle climbs 12° after every shot. How much of the screen that eats is not fixed - it depends on how wide your own field of view is, so these are drawn at the game's default 55°, and a wider setting costs you less of it.
- The kick itself plays out in 0.1s, long over before you can fire again at 0.3s.
- It walks 2° to the right as well as up.
- Aiming slows how fast you can swing the gun around to 60% of normal.
- Its kick is steeper than 64% of 154 pistol loadouts.
Where the shot goes
Your weapon rests shouldered, so that is the cone an unaimed shot uses - crouching, walking and jumping all scale it. Sighted, it closes to a point.
- 6 Jumping ×2
- 4.5 Walking ×1.5
- 3 Shouldered
- 1.5 Crouched ×0.5
- 0.001 Aiming
- The grey dashed ring is the shouldered cone of a Conversion, for comparison.
- Its shouldered cone is better than 71% of 154 pistol loadouts.
- Jumping throws a sighted shot away entirely - the cone opens from 0.001 to 5.
