The same applies to AH9 miniguns too

I agree with this. The helo showcase was difficult to accomplish due to the pin-point accuracy of the machine gun. A degree of shot dispersion would up the realism as well as make it more reasonable to use.

ArmA2 values are just perfect, IMO.

yes i have found it to be considerably accurate but who uses a fixed machine gun to take out infantry. it is quite useless even with dispersion

the only thing i find it useful for is taking out tires of vehicles and to a much smaller extent, helicopter to helicopter combat

Then you are missing the shitload of fun that comes up when you have inf on the ground calling in a littlebird for CAS :D
Also, this is a simulator, not just a game.
In real life the miniguns have quite a spread around the aimed point when firing so it should be the same in A3 !

It's what makes ArmA different from all the other games out there: Fidelity !

If you zoom in while firing the littlebird, you can see there's actually a decent amount of dispersion. I think the real problem is rate of fire. The ROF is waaaay low on the AH-9. It's somewhere around 1/3 of the low ROF on the AH-6 from A2, and close to 1/7th of the high rate setting. 2 miniguns firing at 4,000 RPM should absolutely devastate infantry in the open.

This issue was processed by our team and will be looked into. We thank you for your feedback.

For me, the KA-60 gatling impacts are spread about 3m in diameter at a distance of maybe 150m
Version 0.60

The miniguns have been tweaked recently, could You, please, give it a go and close the issue if it seems OK?

I think it's quite ok now, but different RoF modes would be a welcome addition.

Still way too easy to bring down houses with them.
