"Hold breath" button

[Strambo]

This game needs a button to hold your breath, it's a basic function and I can't understand why it's not in the game.

They said it won't be added, because it's not realistic.

you can lay your gun on cover or use crouch/prone

Yeah but it is soooorealistic that you pit half of mag into sbd head and he keepa running….

Holding your breath is actually frowned upon and I don't think they teach or practice it in the military. Marksmen may do it but not even sure about that. Usually you use your respiratory pause, which is about 3 seconds right after exhaling that is almost natural. It is not like in AMRA 3 where you hold your breath till you cant, although it does a pretty realistic job of penalizing you for holding your breath the maximum amount allowed.

dude just use "rest weapon" on a rock or stump or something. works 1000000 times better than call of doodoo "hold breath"

[Miles]

It's not even holding your breath, just being able to steady your weapon better for a short period of time isn't unrealistic.

guys this post is 1 year old, other arma games have the feature and to ask about it is obvious if you know arma. and if you think this has something to do with cod, you simply have no idea about arma.
