G43 Accuracy?

[Reise]

Am I the only one who thinks the accuracy on the G43 is a bit off? Just today I've missed many shots that I can hit no problem with the earlier G41, including a target standing 15ish feet away in clear view (missed that one 5 times before the guy bolted and killed me). I'm not a bad shot by any means, but I always feel less capable using a G43 as compared to maybe an SVT-40 or a G41.

I'd just like to see this rifle make the same shots as the other semi-autos. But maybe I'm just inherently better with the G41 and SVT-40.

If it's meant to perform like this, please let me know.

You have to aim between shots, unless thier standing 5 feet or closer.

Personally I think the G43 is more accurate then the G41, while the SVT is the best semi-auto rifle in the game. Also you need to rest the G43 when shooting at long range more then other rifles, its heavy and sway kicks in fast. It may not effect the game but the sound of it isnt exactly music to my ears either.

No, your shots just missed or lag-missed. G43 is very accurate but I prefer SVT-40 with it's excellent sights over every else weapon. I'd rather "snipe" with it open sights than with scope.
I hate G41 sights and it is very inaccurate while leaning.

Thing is, I was aiming between each shot, and at that range it wasn't hard to keep the sights aimed toward him. It looked like I never even hit once.

I notice that sometimes as well.

It's only with the K43 though. Probably all in my head.

G43 is the most unreliable rifle in the game..unless you're going to be playing close range then take a bolt over the semi's imo. You get far few WTF moments with the bolt. If its close-medium range then this is my order of preference:

G41
SVT
Bolt
SMG
G43

...the SVT is the best semi-auto rifle in the game.

That is the problem is it not? In terms of accuracy it should be the G41 (because it had machined parts), G43 (which is a combination SVT 40/G41), and SVT 40 (which had vertical shot dispersion and was the least accurate).

It was noted that the SVTs frequently suffered from vertical shot dispersion. For a sniper rifle, this was unacceptable and production of the specialised sniper variant of the SVT was terminated in 1942. At the same time, the milling of scope rails in the receivers of standard SVT rifles was discontinued.

I can't hit **** with the G43

Plus, it sounds like it's shooting greased sausages.

 

[PermenentMarker]

I also have what I call bad luck with the G43

I know what you meen tho.

Greasy sausages/*magic crystals/*screen door opening & closing.

I cant hit crap with the sniper SVT, it disperses the shots all over creation. Yet I can hit the same shots with IS on regular SVTs. That is pretty wierd

K-98
SVT
M44
m91
carbine
g-41
pistol
g-43

is my preference in RO rifles

 

[Nimsky]

You have to pull down the mouse after each shot, to compensate for the recoil. If you don't do this it will take much longer to realign for the next shot. This is especially important for medium distances and up.

 

[Mogget]

It's clear2me that the G43 ****s as it is woefully inaccurate. End of discussion.

 

[Pagan]

Unfortunatly I have to agree and the sight picture is crap too.

 

[Reise]

It's unfortunate it seems it's meant to be this way. I wish I didn't have to follow any trends and fight for the G41, but I'll have to if the G43 is supposed to be that terrible.

 

[Wolfstuka]

The g43 does seem a bit too inaccurate for me also.

 

[Zennousha]

And yet, I have almost no problems using it. Sure, I'd do a bit better at using the G41, STG44, or just a regular Bolt, but by all means I can still get huge kills with the thing. I personally like the sights a bit more than the SVT-40, too (though I find the SVT-40 is a bit more accurate).

Same here...

Same here...

Last time I played I had bad luck with the G43... and not the first time. No one has mentioned if it has any tendencies, meaning it pulls towards a certain direction, I have not noticed this. Think I'll do a little testing and see if I can find out anything. Frankly at this point I normally want a bolt, but I must admit one can have A LOT of fun with a MG in the right location...

i have more success with the g43 than the svt. i think the g43 is more accurate both scoped and unscoped than the svt. the only thing i dislike about the g43 is that the IS is real pointy like the kar. it hurts my eyes because i have to squint when i really need to nail a shot. the g41 has a bar (like the mosin) and the svt has fatter sights which are a little more eye friendly.

i think that the claims that the g43 in RO is very inaccurate are not valid. Toiletduckie posted awhile back some figures in the coding behind the g43/svt/g41. im pretty sure the g43 was the second most accurate semi auto. if someone wants to go dig around for that thread its somewhere around these forums. g41 is the most accurate, g43 is the second most accurate, svt is the least accurate. but in the end i think all of the semiauto rifles are accurate enough to be very effective with the right use.
