Bug with Shotguns - not fully fixed yet

[Nevedimka]

I did some testing on shotguns after the patch. The damage is a lot better but there is a bit of an offset while aiming. I used various scopes with different ammo, and different ranges. Every single shot, using a slug or buckshot type ammo, placed the center of the spread or the impact of the slug at the bottom right quadrant. This was a consistent result. So to be able to hit the enemy's head, I had to aim a little above and to the left of it.

The shotgun used was the M870.
Ammo tested:
12GA SST Sabot Slug
12GA FC 00 Buckshot
12GA Slug

EDIT: Forgot to add that I tried the tests with and without the silencer attachment. The silencer adds 55% dispersion, which I wanted to test as well as the 12GA SST Sabot Slug rounds negate 50% dispersion.

Have you tried recent testing after the Night Ops update? I find the FC Buckshot can drop AI from 50m consistently, i'm curious to see SST Sabot vs FC Buckshot in terms of center mass armor penetration shots on the AI.

I have died many times during this experiment thus far but will continue collecting data....

To be honest, I haven't played all year due to other commitments getting in the way. I'm also waiting for a bit more progress on the game as well. The overly eager and accurate AI made me want to stop playing after I completed all the quests last year. I'll pick the game back up later this year after some more patches.
I'm still very interested and hopeful for the game. With AI tuning, it can be a fantastic mil-sim that I would have a VERY hard time putting down.

Necro topic.

That's like saying our past history is all "necro topic". People can refer to any given information in the past, and follow up at any time as long as its relevant to them and what they seek. If you find this useless, then don't comment and move on.

You haven't touch the game since last patch.

Today Isn't May of last year... That's what a necro-ed thread is.

Are you new?
