Centerfire literally not living up to its name in shooting at the center

[s5yn3t]

Category: Texture / 3D model

Reproducibility: Always, since inception of the gun

Description: This has been mentioned countles times that centerfire in ads mode does not shoot at the center, and it hasn't been fixed since the gun was added into the game.

This is a detailed example of how badly the scope is zeroed in... Speaking about the scope, it always looked weirdly to me.
To my eyes the scope itself is off center of its mounting point, at the same distance as the red dot.
Tripwire please fix.

Odly it doesn't let me add a photo in the post.0

This is how it plays out ingame.

The nice thing is, once you're aware of the problem you can see the target clearly w/o the dot covering it up lol...

doesn't make it less annoying to use.

Renaming the weapon name should fix the discrepancy then.

This is a known issue and the fix should be in the next major update.

known issue that took..... what? over half a year to be worked on, that would take a day or couple tops to fix? Cmon guys you can do it faster (but then again you have incursion, vietnam to deal with....... got yourself an arsload of project to work on on your own head xD)

Solution: rename it to "Offcenterfire: the OCD gun"

Other issues were prioritized.

I know, I know I'm a dick.
The "Centrefire" name is a reference to how it deals with ammunition, not the accuracy of the scope.

Funny how you haven't noticed that the Railgun has the same issue, kinda. (It has inherent sway, so is less likely to be picked up)
Also, Railgun sway is weird in that the recticule moves with the aim point in the sway.... works for me...

no i did notice that if you move while adsing with a magnified scope, the aim stays on point while the scope sways in horizontal 8 pattern... Which makes it easier to use the scopes tbh.
