G3 Marksman Accuracy Glitch??

[AgentMongoose]

Maybe its just me but it seems like the g3 marksman rifle is more accurate while standing then prone. in a skirmish on kashan I was firing at a squad in the open (while prone) and couldn't hit anything. ran dry. reloaded. Stood up in a rage (Rambo style :P) and dropped 5 guys in 6 shots 4 head shots and one double tap.

Has anyone else played around with it and noticed the same thing?

Odd, not really used it to be honest, more of a uber 1337 snipah than marksman

Below is the deviation code for the G3 marksman:

ObjectTemplate.deviation.minDev 0.25
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setFireDev 1 1 .033
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setTurnDev 1 .075 .075 .025
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setSpeedDev 1 1 1 .013
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setMiscDev 5 5 .05
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModStand 2.0
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModCrouch 1.6
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModLie 1.6
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModZoom .4

As you can see, the stand deviation is significantly higher than the crouch/lie deviation so in theory, standing should be worse than crouching. In game, however, all marksman rifles seem to be acting a little strangely; sometimes they're deadly accurate and other times they're way off... not sure why.

[Scot]

What is the unit or whatever for the 2.0 and 1.6?? Like how much difference is the 0.4 between the stand and crouch and lie?

[Wolfe]

At 200 meters:

stand: .698m grouping
crouch: .559m grouping

In other words, crouching is like being 40 meters closer than standing.

That's incorrect. At 200m it's:

stand: 1.39m
crouch: 1.11m

And here is the code for the G3A3:

ObjectTemplate.deviation.minDev .25
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setFireDev 1.5 1.5 .05
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setTurnDev 3 .225 .225 .075
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setSpeedDev 1.5 1.5 1.5 .02
ObjectTemplate.deviation.setMiscDev 5 5 .05
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModStand 2.2
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModCrouch 1.8
ObjectTemplate.deviation.devModLie 1.8

Lol, minimum deviation is exactly the same. Err, Wolfe? Arent presition rifles ment to be more accurate than assault rifles? And isnt a soldier supposed to be more accurate when prone than when in crouch?

[Wolfe]

Wah, the "mindev" value does not mean minimum deviation. Take your trolling elsewhere.

I keep forgetting to multiply by 2.
It's important to note, however, that the deviation pattern is not linear. It's exponential, meaning that about 75% of the shots will be towards the center, with only a small percentage deviating towards the edge.

I get 8 inch groupings at 200yrds with my rifled barrel 12 gauge.
