Bayonets? Affects accuracy now?

[Zingu]

When playing the RO mod for UT2004 awhile ago, I got an opportunity to ask a dev who was playing on the server I was on if bayonets affected a rifles accuracy, the responce I got was "It should, but it doesn't.".


Well, anyone know if this has changed now, or not? Because I developed a habit of always attaching my bayonet at the beginning of spawning since bayonet > rifle butt.

i think that the sway will kick in faster. But when shooting for example with a Soviet mosin nagant it should be more accurate with bayonet up. But i believe there has not been any official notice about this matter yet.

Good question.

Do we have an official answer about it?

(Taken from the RO-Spain interview.)

"RO.es: Will attaching a bayonet to the gun affect the accuracy of the weapon at all?

AW: It makes a small difference -and even that small difference goes away when you are resting your rifle on something."
