how do you aim and hit in this game?!
what am i doing wrong? is there some option to turn off or what? feels like spaghetti limbs holding the rifle and its sooo wobbly when firing. others seem to aim and hit well, but i cant hit for nothing in this game anymore. im not a super professional at fps games, but i usualy can hit things reliably. not here tho. what am i missing?

just do what the cheaters do and run around with ESP aimbot no recoil and no ICO config... they like to turn some off and on makes them feel like big boys when they can land a shot with ESP only...

1. Basic movement seems quite slow.

3. Reloading like your 90, cant see, and out of breath from pulling out a new mag/clip.
4. Camera shake. Holy hell.
Im pretty sure from just playing the training, Im going to have to refund.

Better do a refund. A lot of long time players quite because of this nonsense you describing. The people that really like it are bad shots and immersion larpers.

I think everyone who can't aim or kill anything with ICO just never had any skill to begin with, I've been much better at shooting targets since ICO, especially with hipfiring shots.

Stop Sprinting 90% of the time.
I came back to the game after a very long time, had the hold habit of sprinting all the time, when you figure out there a 2 white dots in the middle down of you ATH that indicate the accuracy you have and when you see how slow it takes to reduce it you will understand how to shoot.

That is a misconception you have. It is not about not being able to kill anyone. I know a bunch of people that make kill-death ratios of 29 to 3 and they still do not like the changes. The gunplay is rediculously unrealistic and more importantly unenjoyable. It is just bad game design period. It is made for immersion larpers and people that did not know where shots are comming from.

Buttom line is OWI wanted new players to feel more engaged and more usefull. Does not mean they are more effective.

Move less, move in short bursts, stay in a place for a moment to regain stamina, move while ADS. Its really not that hard to hit targets when your stamina is not drained, you are not wounded and besides, its the same for everyone.

Also keep in mind your stability is higher when you crouch or go prone and when you hold the SPRINT key while ADS your aim stabilizes faster as well.

Its a different pace compared to other fps games, get used to it.
you are actually so dumb you didnt even realize i was talking about moving while ADS the whole damn time... Stop commenting on these threads you have been coping for years lol

nothing in your inital post indicated you were talking about moving while ads..., and as you wrote others seem to have less issues hitting their targets, so its really about your own pacing and sensible stamina management and movement.

For you to shoot well, you must:
1. Reach position, like crossroad corner, bush, rock
2. Aim scoped/ironsight with RMB
3. Wait to sway stop
4. Calculate target movement, make adjustments (horizontal speed, zeroing)
5. Shoot and check impact point in case you calculations were not precise enough
6. Repeat calculations and shoot again

After some time, you'll figure how to shoot intuitiuvely.
Even how to stop and shoot on the move

This, I forgor about this. There is some funky shiz goin on with the leading of your shot and whatnot. I think it kinda depends on your "ping" so yeah that also is a pretty important part of the actual aiming and hitting however, being in a good place to exchange fire is much more important.
Oscar has the right idea.

if yall are bad and want easy games shut tf up and go play something else, sound like a bunch of babies crying about a game you dont HAVE to play, go back to cod.

Quite exaggerated lol. But the point is that it's far from any regular shooter, and tries to make a believable tactical and more grounded experience, but to translate that in a videogame controlled with mouse and keyboard you have to gamify those aspects in creative ways.

If it's not your style, definitely refund. It's a niche.

It's plagued by a bunch of other problems tho that make even long time players infuriate, that I can say.
