Accuracy of fire in sitting and standing identical
New, WishlistPublic

Description

If you fire a rifle in sitting position and then standing, then do not see any difference in the accuracy of fire, the difference is only in a position prone. Actually sitting position more stable than the standing position during firing, here acts "law of the lever." Human power and recoil force the quantities are constant. The farther away from the earth (the fulcrum person) lift the recoil force, the less accuracy. This is due to the fact that the pivot point for a person is on the ground. Identical accuracy when standing and sitting position is possible only if you will be rested against the wall. Accuracy of fire in the sitting position should be better than standing.

Is this about accuracy or recoil? Where is sitting in that video?

Rifle throws up in both cases are identical.
In this video:

  1. standing position
  2. sitting position
  3. lying position

In this case, I mean:
Recoil weapons - the energy that strikes man on the shoulder, this value is constant.
Accuracy of fire - a value throws up rifle, or the distance between the holes on the wall :)

The distance between the holes on the wall when firing from a standing position can not be the same as when firing from a sitting position.

I suppose by "sitting" you mean crouching, correct?

Sitting is by default accomplished by going Prone and holding Ctrl while pressing W.

ok, i dont know how to say this to you but:

the position does NOT change the accuracy of the weapon, the weapon will remain with the same accuracy, i dont care what COD or BF or some arcadish shoter told you, its not logically possible that going from standing up to prone the rifle magically is more accurate.

this is not a problem, its a misunderstanding.

Sitting position , I mean knee.
It's not about accuracy rifle , weapon accuracy constant. It's about gun control during shooting , rifle control should be easier in a sitting position (knee) . Long ago I fired AK74 in different positions, and I can tell exactly what sitting position (knee) is more stable than the standing position , in turn lying position is more stable than the sitting position (knee) . More stable position greatly affects a person's ability to absorb recoil , this leads to better accuracy , in this you can see by visiting any site on Small Arms . Change of position has a great influence on the accuracy of a single fire mode , the automatic is less influence , but it is still there.

Kneeling and Sitting are two very different firing positions so your post is a little miss leading.

But as for the kneeling position having the same stability as the standing, you can see that the in-game kneeling position is un-supported, so basically from the waist up there is no change in stance.

In a real kneeling position you would rest your left elbow just behind your left knee (assuming your right handed) which would offer a more stable firing position, this however is not modelled in game.

In fact, there is little change, you move the center of mass (recoil force rifle) closer to the ground (support). It also gives an advantage (if to seek help from physics) is certainly not as significant if to rest the elbow to the knee.

if its the recoil, i agree, note that i haven't been able to test this out myself but even if its a little recoil reduction it should still be present
