Aiming difficulty

[Mr Fraggle (UK)]

I have no idea why but I cannot seem to get my head around how to aim in this game. Even at
over relatively short distances I cannot seem to headshot yet it really should not be that hard.

Whereas I appreciate the wind can play a part it should not matter over short distances and I find the dotted white line that curves away when looking down the sights puzzling as I cannot decide what it is suppose to represent?

If anyone has any tips for this old gamer I would appreciate it.

the white line shows the trajectory of the bullet the orange marks left side or right show the wind blowing ,measure distance then look through the scope for the distance taking into consideration of the wind. if 200 mtrs check orange mark line up
with scope and fire

use your tagging binos to get the range to target alter the scope to that range move if you need to so as to get as near to scope range to target ...if you are at the correct range the horizontal line thru the center of the scope will be at the right height watch where the wind line the dotted line that drops at the side .........place the spot it starts from the horzontal line on the targets head ..you should get a headshot kill

Must be me then as I still cannot get it. Thanks anyway.

Sorry but the aiming remains absolute rubbish.
Since when can he only hold is breath for a few seconds and then needs to recover?
Mortars are stupidly accurate.

Have you watched Centerstrain01 video on YT?
Frankly speaking I'd like "extreme difficulty" to be added to the game without dotted white line, radar in bottom left corner and even tagging enemies...

I've noticed third mortar's strike is accurate.

There was so many videos IO had no idea which one you meant.
I have no idea what the dotted white line is supposed to indicate.
If an enemy is close enough the wind will not play apart except of course in this game.

OK the game wins the prize for really pissing me off.
For some reason it has decided that I need to restart Kolchak Harbour again even though I have completed the first part of the contract which was hack the logbook which it clearly shows in contract details but I can only press a box which says " Start the Contract."
Enough is enough, uninstalled.

Orange lines on scope tells you to distance between you and the enemy. If enemy is 150 meter away then you need to line your lines between 100 and 200 if there is no 150 marking. Using default setting you can calibrate your snipers scope and increase your score when ever is needed if enemy is father way.

Dropping white line on left or right side tells how strong winds are and bullet drop. by lining your white dropping line with the enemy you can see how far left or right you need to place your aim. When both of your white lines and orange lines are close enough on enemy. You can shoot and see if you hit. Bullet cam tells you immediately that you hit, if you don't get one then its either hit or miss.

the falling white dotted line is the fall of the bullet at diferent ranges ...i just ignore it i only see when it leaves the central horizontel line of your scope set your range as near as you can if you have to move a little nearer to gte it to say 250 and the target is 265 try to move a little closer ...the spot where the falling dotted whiite line leaves the horizaontl line is the ainm spot put this spot on the targets head oyu should hit

[corveinus]

also i have found when i restart the game i allwasy use continue to go to last auto save it will be the last time you used the yellow data transfer if you didint do it after you got the hack it wont save your progress allways try to use the data transfer after each one of the objectives

Before I uninstall it I thought I would give one last chance, completed the first section and the bounty and moved on to the next part. I was 56 metres away from three enemies and I had to allow for wind, the devs are surely having a laugh?

Thanks for all your help but it just is not for me, I play games to have fun not be frustrated at every turn.
