Any left handed people want some love?

Doesn't cause me any problem.

You use a weapon based on whether you're left-or-right-EYED, not handed. If your right eye is dominant, you'll shoot righthanded, and vice versa, even if it means you have to use your non-dominant hand.

I had to do that when shooting a bow, not when using a firearm. But then again, I'm not playing IPSC.

I'm right handed (extreme dominance, I can't do sh*t with my left hand) and my left eye is dominant.

I don't think it would take a lot of development time to make a mirrored left handed option..

It actually takes a lot of time. It is not only 1st person stuff, it is 3rd person as well. Left and right handed cover? Yikes.

Same here. I'm right-handed and my left eye is dominant, but I can't even shoot a pistol with my left hand. My finger just gets out of control. I fail to see how eye dominance could have something to do with it.

Well, the thing is that when you judge something, like the trajectory of an arrow or a bullet, from point a close to your face to point b, you will get problems if you are using your right hand to do something and your left eye to judge.

I had extreme difficulties when shooting a bow until I switched arms. Right hand holds the bod and left hand draws the bow string. Feels awkward and I have a lot of trouble with drawing the string due to lack of coordination of my left arm. But I can actually hit targets pretty far away if I manage to draw it correctly.

Having something else like sights or optics enables you to overcome this by closing your left eye.

And when we start talking about leftys why exclude the colorblind ? Or the fat guys ?

I don't think it would take a lot of development time to make a mirrored left handed option, as was included in the mod.

I know it wouldn't be historically accurate, as they didn't issue left handed weapons and trained them to shoot right handed. Quite frankly, this is one feature where that simply wouldn't matter to me.

As I said in my previous post, if you are a lefty, playing right handed feels awkward. It just doesn't sync up in the mind. It's almost uncomfortable. I know I'm going to catch a lot of flack for saying it, but it is a game and I would rather feel comfortable playing than not.

Really? I play air guitar all the time left handed though I am right handed (and play a real guitar right handed) and it feels very comfortable.

Twice the number of animations :L
