Greatly improve gun aim/hit reg without the help of mods
The gun play is very garbage you just miss like 90% of the time even at point blank, I get theres stats that improve gun aim and how panic reduces aim but even then you'll still miss. At least let me kill them at point blank because dealing with a horde with melee is not viable less you have the Katana. But then I'm gonna have comments saying "oh this is a stealth game" not really zombies spot you 8 times out of 10 anyway so whats the point of stealthing if I want to go guns blazing.

What aiming skill do you have that you're missing 90% of the time at point blank? You're doing something wrong somewhere.

Are you moving, or feet planted? Are you panicked? Lot of things go into it. But the two biggest ones are panicked, and people moving while they're trying to shoot.

Enable the aim outline in the options, and watch how the outline color changes as you stand still while aiming at a target, and watch how it changes when you start moving. Stop, Aim, Fire, Move- Do not fire on the move or you're going to get exactly what you're running into.

I miss maybe 1/10 with a pistol at point blank with 1 aim skill when fairly panicked. By aim 4, I can fire a pistol at targets up to half a screen away and still hit them 80-90% of the time.

I literally do that same with my friends and guns do jack less you have mods to improve hit reg. Sounds stupid how you have to literally stop moving, crouch and not be panicked just to hit a shot sounds very dumb balance stand point. Better off using a machete or katana as they are more reliable than a gun. And you should be able to kill zombies at point blank just sounds stupid too if you can't.

im curious to what the conditions are aswell, i have my aiming level 2 and long as my feet are planted i hit 80% medium range, if i get panicked i just take beta blockers and boom back to the shooting range
