Track Rate of Fire
Please ask them to add in a tracker for rate of fire. Just came across a wattson using a 301 on single fire like a machine gun. There has to be a tracker that can easily see this gun is firing faster...

Sure, but as you can see at 0:18 in the very video you just linked, the Flatlines rate of fire on single fire mode is IDENITICAL as its rate of fire on auto fire mode and same goes for the R301. And if you try it out in the firing range, you will see that the recoil pattern for BOTH auto fire and single fire with macro is EXACTLY the same.....
What I am trying to say is that you wont get any advantages from using single fire Flatline with a rapid fire macro, compared to using a Flatline on autofire, neither RPM or recoil-wise. So once again; I dont understand what you think is unfair with it. The only weapon I think have a slight advantage using a macro is the p2020 since you, without the macro, need to click very fast to fire at maximum rate which might disrupt your aim a bit.
@BalladalidilaOh i wont try out macros. I have no intentions on altering the games functions to provide support. I have seen friends use it. This is not 100% manually shooting players. These are 100% macro recorded .5 ms set shooting.
Being single fire means it actually does more damage which is the point of using it on single fire for them. You deal more damage then on full auto bullet for bullet.
I do not find it to be a legit player when you have to use advantages to attempt to be good. All those players should be dealt with. Altering of a game mechanic. This allows one to deal much more damage and fire faster then the human finger can click.
The recoil is not at question here whats so ever. Its shooting a gun faster then a human can click dealing more damage. Recoil means nothing to me with that gun its using macros to shoot. With this macro set up you do not manually press your button. You hold it down and it fires the way you see. They do not click but 1 time and holding to keep it going.
No, single fire with either the R301 or Flatline does not do more damage per bullet than auto fire... You must be confusing it with the Anvil receiver hop up or something.
I have tested it many times in the firing range and even if I detected a slight difference in the pattern I wouldnt say it give you any real advantages. The pattern with Flatline on auto seem to have slightly more upward kick than on single, but on single the pattern seem to be moving more horizontally. This becomes more apparent on longer range. So if anything, I would say that the pattern is easier to control on auto since vertical kick is easier to control than horizontal but thats just my opinion.
Here is a video that shows the recoil pattern for a Flatline, first one single fire and then on auto fire, just firing with no mouse movement what so ever. But anyways, Ive learned from experience that there are no point of going further into this discussion since you seem so convinced of your point of view. I am 100% sure that Flatline and R301 on singlefire with rapid fire macro does not give you any real advantage over using it on regular auto fire and you are 100% sure I am wrong so lets agree to disagree =)
PS
"On top of that I would also like to state that the comment from the link in question which was posted is completely false."
You must ofc understand that this isnt a matter of being false of true since its 100% based on your own preference. Some find it easier to hold a mouse button while aiming, some find it easier to rapidly click.
- @Balladalidila You are correct after me doing some testing when comes to single/auto fire bullet dmg. Dunno why I had thought other wise I could swore they dealt tad more damage on single fire. Makes me wonder why they even do it other then turning a p2020 into a mini 99 with hop ups.
As for flatline and 301 you are correct though. Turning a p2020 and a hemlok to mini machine guns is where it first started with me then noticed tons running the flat and 301 on single fire and I assumed they also was just increasing fire rate for more dmg. The p2020 though that is a huge one to change when it has the hop up. @BalladalidilaAnd that is where the differentiation occurs. You're on PC and i'm on console, we definitely have a lot more recoil lol.
Also, with single fire showing a direct pattern with no overlaps and without spinning out of control (in ex A) proves the bullets are looser the longer you spray it, and the bullets overlapping and kicking more to the left and being more tightly packed and looping (in ex B) do indeed prove it is harder to aim in auto, but the looping in the pattern does give a sort of "aim forgiveness" at long range. This also proves that the patterns are similar but they are not the same at all. This means it is a lot more predictable to spray in single fire and easily reset, thus making it easier to aim in single fire.I thought the recoil was less for the flatline in single fire mode.
