Re: Fix Wingman

@Sir_Named This is a completely different scenario. But even still, the wingman user will be strafing faster and harder to follow in a zoomed in scope. My position will always be - a pistol should not out perform an AR or sniper at range. The sniper/AR should always have the upper hand.

    @SolitaryMassacre You literally can’t strafe too fast for the scope. If that happens, then scope you used is too high magnification, which wouldn’t be happening on a 2x-4x at sniper distance.
    It really isn’t that different of a scenario. Plus, people typically put scopes on their weapons anyway, (especially G7, nobody uses G7 iron sights unless you are a psychopath.), so your example wouldn’t be that relevant.
    In my scenario, I’m putting the Wingman up against a semi-auto assault rifle at sniper range. And they are using sights, as it’d be ridiculous if they tried to snipe each other at sniping range without any scope.

    This is a fairly common scenario, as it basically is just two squads sniping each other with at least semi kitted guns, at a long range.

    Mid range, the Wingman probably can do better than some other guns, but at long range it really shouldn’t unless you are messing something up. Primarily because the Wingman doesn’t have access to high magnification scopes, and as such can’t see the target very well at long ranges, whereas the target will be able to see the Wingman user much better.
