No. This is why it is better to use 3rd person camera in any assault situation.

It is highly unfair when compared to the 1st person camera.

Depending on how close you are to the target... if in 3rd person mode, you are actually able to physically aim the reticle outside of the target. For example, maybe about a meter above their head.

However, even though you aren't actually aiming at your opponent, due to your angle and distance from your opponent, the actual hit point (the red dot in the middle of the reticle telling you where you are going to hit) stays ON your opponent.

It is because of this reason that makes sniping in 3rd person MUCH easier in close combat. (Not to say that it doesn't effect all the other weapons too.. it does.)

Recruit

i use it to but i hate that part. you aim for the head and even tho u r dead on it still hits the chest. having to aim above the head to get a hs gets annoying
