Can't aim like before ?

[Tricky]

Hey I've been a big dod:s player until 2014 where is stoped the game but still it's my all time favourite game.

Sometimes I come back for 1h every 6-9 months for the memories and the fun.
But for today I feel something has changed and I can't tell if it's my memory that tricks me or something really changed since my last play.

Before, I could hold the sight with right click on the mouse and when I released right click it would take off the sight but now when I hold right click it zoom in and out and, I can't aim at all....I have to click one time to aim and one time aim out and it's very very annoying because you lose time and end up with a 1sec lag before being able to SHOOT after aiming out wtf ??

I remember there was an option to hold the right click to aim or just single click to aim in/out but now I can't find that option anymore..

This is frustrating on many levels, If I miss my shot the ennemy will kill me most off the time because of that small lag. I had a nice technique to "quick aim" since QQ was a ban on most servers (that's sad tho) but I can't use that anymore..


It doesn't mean I can't play anymore but it slow down the game a lot to me.
I have 1k+ hours on the game, that's why I feel weird about that.

Thanks you if you can lighten me up and sorry if my english is weird :)

The setting will be "weapon secondary function" same thing as punch, toggling support to single fire etc.

Quick Switching to get out of scope or to work the bolt has never been an advantage. Its a myth and takes the exact same amount of time. People who cry about it or ♥♥♥♥♥ are simply bad at the game and use it as an excuse. The only reason it is done by higher level players is to get a momentary cross hair with the pistol in order to noscope if you must. Or to just have ur pistol ready after every shot incase of a rush. No other reason, no advantage, no magically sped up time.

To quick scope you need to press your sprint button directly after scoping in with a sniper rifle and this will reduce the lag time by about half. It only works with snipers not normal rifles.


The aim down sights in DOD:S has always been a toggle in other words you press once and its on and press again and its off. There is no option to hold it down. You are thinking of another game and time may have clouded your memory.
