You can't name more retarded mechanic than this

>>717638813 (OP)
aim down sight

>>717638813 (OP)
change your weapons at a safehouse periodically, thats all you have to do

>>717638887
Bait

>>717638813 (OP)
I like when games go all in in one direction, but don't half ass it
farcry2 is still a shit casual console shooter so adding random pseudo realistic milsim stuff is schizo design
if i wanna play arma or gamma i'll play those

>>717638813 (OP)
Why are you retriggering the anim? The mechanic is cool as hell and forces you to adapt and take care of weapons. The only good implementation of weapon durability

>>717639001
no really its ass and ruined the fast paced chaos of fps games.

>>717638813 (OP)
>>717639097

>>717639031
They went all in on making weapons degrade after several shots.

>>717639108
Shut up, Countersissy. That's what you do when you shoot a gun, you aim by looking down the sight.

>>717639225
>games
>real life
Kill yourself you fucking retarded fagget

>>717639108
counterpoint: it looks and feels cool

>>717638813 (OP)
This webm is retarded and misleading. Your character automatically clears the jam when you press the reload button again.

>>717638813 (OP)
>we want realistic gunplay
>NO NOT LIKE THIS

>>717639031
>random pseudo realistic milsim stuff is schizo
no its not
its resistance
going in guns blazing requires preparation/planning

>>717639269
You're fucking pathetic and bad at video games hipfirefag

>>717639298
It doesn't honestly, not when the template is used instead of actually doing something interesting

>>717639269
We play games because we want to emulate parts of life we cannot experience for ourselves, you homofaggot

>>717639225
game may as well be set in featureless box rooms because with ADS I have a gigantic gun model blocking most of the screen at all times

>>717638887
true it just slows the game down & incentivizes camping

I have shot thousands of shotgun shells and I have never once had one jam on me. I've only had handguns jam with me when I used shitty reloaded Russian ammo

My biggest pet peeve is any game with a hunger mechanic because it makes it like you're an American having to train for a hot dog eating competition to stay alive

Anti-ADS fags are some of the most baffling retards I've ever come across in this hobby. It's truly bizarre how BTFO you retards get about this.

>>717639298
counterpoint: it looks stupid and feels gay (just like you)

>>717639474
>plays
>THIS IS LIKE REAL LIEF HUR DURR
why are npc normies like this?

>>717639298
>filling up your screen with gun sights to shoot looks and feels cool
Nah.

>>717639586
not an argument just sperging

>>717638887
In theory down sight aiming offers the moment to moment tactical choice of mobility vs accuracy.
However barely any games actually balance one end of that spectrum against the other.

>>717638813 (OP)
not even the most retarded mechanic in this game

>>717639726
Yes, you are just sperging out.

>>717639659
Try again without the buzzwords.

>>717639218
They want all in on making the game shit by respawning niggers 5 seconds after you kill them.

>>717638813 (OP)
>gun jams
kino mechanic, stop mashing the baby rage button and let the jam be fixed

>>717639391
>"we want realistic gunplay"
>it's someone who hates playing shooters and doesn't want shooter gameplay to get in the way of their larp

>>717638887
i was gonna say reloading, but yeah aim down sight is the worse

oh sure let's make the rng aspect of the game even wider than it would otherwise be, but they we add a button for you to hold down that REDUCES the rng
such compelling gameplay

ADS breaks up spam jumping gunkata fights with other players. It's also the only way to balance high rps guns

>>717640129
Yeah, have a better chance of landing your shot, but also higher chance of getting hit. What's the fucking problem?

>>717640039
Welcome to Far Cry retard

But /v/'s favorite game has this mechanic.

The malaria pills were a way worse mechanic

>>717638937
Why don't any of the bad guys have to do that? Why does everyone else have a rusty piece of shit gun that works flawlessly for them indefinitely, but as soon as I pick it up, it jams more than a Zip22 and explodes in my hands after firing one magazine worth of ammo?

>>717638813 (OP)
Gun jamming made me quit Tarkov because of how fucking annoying it was to clear it. "Hurr first you have to do some shitty button combo to look at your gun and then do another shitty button combo to actually clear it" meanwhile time to kill is like 0.002 seconds so if you gun jams you just fucking die.

>>717638813 (OP)
In-depth obsessive reload autism is worse.

>>717641706
Doesn't the 3D fallout games have that mechanic apply to enemies?

>>717638887
>>717640129
they have computers in the nursing home?

>>717641945
just lower the difficulty and it will go away

>>717638813 (OP)
>you have limited mana, ammo or skills required cool down to use
>enemies have unlimited mana, ammo and don't have cool down for skills, also a gorillion more HP

>>717638813 (OP)
Weapon/item durability is one of the most infuriating mechanics to deal with if its not balanced correctly or gamified to the point of being silly. I couldn't stand how in The Long Dark something like a crowbar, a solid piece of metal with zero moving parts, was apparently losing more than a percent of condition per use. Then there's the whetstones that somehow became useless after using them for so long, and the knives/axes/guns that seemed to be degrading way too quickly. It was never enough to kill the game for me but it was a constant pain in the ass to be babysitting gear that should function damn near indefinitely with minimal maintenance.

>>717639726
You just want every game to be TF2

Far Cry 2 sucked because like this anon said: >>717639031 it absolutely didn't commit.
It cares about "realism" only insofar that it's a console shooter, but with really fucking annoying features that aren't even realistic to begin with.

>Malaria is apparently super AIDS and Fallout Radiation.
>Classic Far Cry in that enemies have super range and accuracy, but the second you pick up their guns, they're shit.
Gun jamming would have been a much better feature if, like a good milisim, the enemies were operating on the same rules that you are.

>>717638887
Are there any games that portray aiming similar to how it looks IRL with both eyes open? Like a ghost image of your sights instead of blocking 70% of the screen as if every professional soldier is squeezing one eye shut real hard.

>>717640404
No other Far Cry game does it though. They got rid of respawning checkpoints in 3.

>>717642253
only people with bad reflexes defend ADS, they can't aim without the game forcing everyone to move at a crawl to make your gun shoot straight

>>717642383
Depending on the game this is okay. In a "realistic shooter" I just think the balance is shit. I drastically prefer low time to kill than high, for both me and my enemies. I want to be able to die in one or two hits, but I want the same to apply to my enemies. We're using the same goddamn guns, and we're the same squishy people.

>>717644548
I liked the Killing Floor 1 method of no crosshair, the ability to ADS, and having no accuracy penalty if you didn't aim. Pulling off precise muscle memory headshots at a distance without sighting in was so satisfying. Of course you couldn't really make it work in pvp because there's a jillion ways to force a crosshair outside of the actual game nowadays.

>>717638887
if I cant aim down sights I refund the game

>>717638813 (OP)
One of the game designs that I absolutely despise is when they make bosses with bland mechanics, but to compensate for that, they spawn some of the most annoying mobs with them. And it usually something that slows you down, stuns you or has insane AoE attacks. Lazy ass cancer design.
