Shooting while sprinting

[hotcakes 348]

Is it going to be implemented? Muh realism.

OMG... yet another dead horse being beaten beyond reason. Yay. >.>

try and sprint with a mosin and fire it in real life, the kick would probably throw you of course a little, unless your pretty built

You're missing the point. It doesn't have to be accurate, it just needs to be possible because it makes sense.

 

It's entirely plausible to be laying suppressing fire while moving.

Yeah because suppressing fire is needed in 99% off all survival situations.

I dont think its needed. Because I have played paintball, and to hit the end of an oil drum, shooting on my good side (to the left because im right handed) and consistently hit it at 30 feet took about a month of practice. All of this is on flat terrain, I could not imagine doing this in a field or on a hill, I would break my neck.

 

I also think that the necessity of taking a firing position adds strategy to the game.

Only way I see this working, is when you charge an enemy in a narrow corridor with an assault rifle.Otherwise it would make no use in this game imo.

The point isn't to be able to kill people while running; the point is to be able to scare people while running.

I had this idea as well but I was thinking that you could only shoot while moving if you are wearing a chest holster.

Any pistol that you have in a chest holster will be able to be pulled out while running to suppress anyone that is firing at you while you are running from them.

Of course it would be very inaccurate, but it doesn't need to be.

 

Also if you have a pistol in a chest holster you should be able to shoot while climbing ladders also.

Plus it should allow you to pull the pistol out faster than one that is in your backpack.

It should take much longer to pull a pistol out of you bag then from a chest holster.

 

I had this idea to give the chest holster a trade off for wearing it over a vest, because now the chest holster is only good until you find a vest or if you just want it for looks.

They had this back in Operation Flashpoint...

[artisan661 13]

i dont think they will put that in, I can already see all the noobs sprinting around and trying to shoot people

 

i would rather see different shooting positions like in arma 3. That would be fun.

Second. Give me more Arma 3 type stances and i'll be quite happy.

As i see too much bugs in this game, probably it will be almost last one../sarcasm on.No i am wrong, it will be pre-pre-last, the last one is fixing zombies passing thrue walls,and pre-last is loot spawn system

Here's a better video from Operation Flashpoint.

You can see the sheer ineffectiveness of firing while sprinting... compared to aiming down the sights while slowly walking.

I don't have a problem with introducing shooting while running: you can do it in real life. It just has to suck as much as in real life.

When I meet some scenery that needs suppressing (because let's face it - that's all you'll ever hit), I'm going to regret mocking you.

[DedicateDdos 50]

I understand where this is coming from, if you're in a location with little protection and you're getting shot at it'd be nice to lay down some rounds in an attempt to make them cower behind their cover while you sprint for your own.

 

optimally talking about suppressing fire as in retreating or advancing in a team composition you'd want the guy running to just run instead of wildly spreading his ammo across the land while everyone else takes shots/suppresses.

Pretty much this, you'd be making tons of noise and wasting boatloads of (currently not so precious) ammo but at least it offers a chance to move into a better position.

 

Though I wouldn't consider it a priority.

[gibonez 3633]

I hope not. More realism and mil sim aspects please.

[pacific_coast 632]

if you can do it in real life you should be able to do it in dayz
