@betsill I thought the same, I have been spoiled with the ebony flintlock

@betsill or you know...use google to see it before you buy it? You know that search engine you used to come to this forum? Also I bought every single bulge rat cosmetic and still got 130 doubloons left over so hardly a waste to have a unique limited time weapon.

@theothervillain I've heard a few other people say this and it really doesn't make sense to me. You only have one shot and if you miss you are stuck reloading for 2-3 seconds depending on the gun. Not to mention this game doesn't have animation canceling so if you need to move before the animation finishes, you have to start all over again(this really needs to be fixed). Your target is also a jumping madman that is constantly healing. This game requires more precision than the average FPS from what I can tell. In BF3(or any other FPS) I have 31 rounds before i need to reload and the reload is MUCH shorter, so missing is not a big deal at all.

Eh, I'd disagree that it requires more precision than the average FPS. Crysis, Titan Fall, Halo, Destiny, Brink...all highly mobile "jumping like a madman" games. I was/am able to at least land body shots on those game. Heck, I'd often hip fire and place the shots (its almost a necessary skill in Titan Fall. That extra time to aim will get ya killed). Point being, this isn't a twitchy, technical game.

I bought it aswell, but I switched it back for my sailor pistol again. Way smaller barrel and centered aim! Somewhat dissapointed but I can live with it.

Pistol is fine they all works in game like this your aim is between two bones:

@betsill the row of bones is not in the middle. that throws off my aim. but they could put a small crack in the middle to improve aim a bit.

@betsill yea, i didn't think so. I guess thats why I didn't care about the sights on limited edition guns. This game isn't really about precision.

@betsill double tap the xbox button then it will have an option to take a screen shot or clip

@BETSILL I had some friends send me some pics of the ADS for the weapons before I decided not to buy the pistol or the blunderbuss (which is a shame bc they're such cool looking weapons), and I'd rather use the doubloons for leveling factions.

Hopefully your post does what you intended it to do, simply allow more people to make an informed purchase.

I agree with everyone who said a cosmetic item model view/zoom/tilt/etc should be available. Would be a great QOL improvement. Hopefully in the future!

@theothervillain There are no headshots. unfortunately.

@betsill speaking of guns...you ever get your answer about head shots

Hello,
I wouldn’t say it’s misleading, it’s a gun that shoots, yeah yeah, people might think that it’s weird, but that’s what this update is all about, different approaches to thing.
Best regards!

@betsill yeh i think your alone on this one maybe you need to get your eyes checked

@aod-fluid Actually kinda glad he did. As this game does the barest of bones job of allowing a player to view an item before purchase I appreciate any information I can get.

I can get behind that logic.

@genuine-heather The only thing that changes on pistols is how accurately their sights relay information. The bone-crusher is by far the worst, because not only does it obscure your vision more than any other pistol; it also deceives you into thinking that you are aiming somewhere else.

I realy like it, the aim is not central, we just need to use it rigth. The center is the rigth side of the aim.
It just looks cool.
The shotgun is nice but abit big on the scren.

I'ts the worst pistol in the game no question

I don't fancy it, but I wouldn't say it's the "worst". Since all the pistols fire exactly the same way, with the same range, power, and accuracy, whether it's the "worst" or the "best" is an entirely subjective matter.

All weapons are completely cosmetic, so that "sight picture" you mentioned is completely irrelevant to the design.

@eredhar I like the design of the bone weapons, but you have a finite amount of doubloons that you can earn in this game. The biggest problem is not that they made a really bad pistol, but that you still can't test anything before you buy it. I'ts the worst pistol in the game no question, but they can see for themselves in my post if they still want to or not.

@aod-fluid I like to help people lol

@genuine-heather said in The Bone Crusher Pistol is VERY bad.:

The new bone crusher gear reminds me of the Flintstones. I skipped the first set, the dress, jacket and hat. They were unique but not my style. I did buy the weapons. But again...not really my style. Part of me wishes I’d saved my doubloons.

... which is why this game needs a pan, tilt zoom option for items like most games made in the last ten years.

@aod-fluid Actually kinda glad he did. As this game does the barest of bones job of allowing a player to view an item before purchase I appreciate any information I can get.

I played with it all day today. Works fine. If you're saying the site isn't centered, that's just the style. I use the right edge of the site and I actually like it better.
