Handling
What firing does to your view
The muzzle climbs 5° 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 4s.
- It walks 1.5° to the left as well as up.
- Its kick is steeper than 24% 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.
- 8 Jumping ×2
- 6 Walking ×1.5
- 4 Shouldered
- 2 Crouched ×0.5
- 0.001 Aiming
- Its shouldered cone is better than 36% of 154 pistol loadouts.
- Jumping throws a sighted shot away entirely - the cone opens from 0.001 to 5.
