Looting a machine, go to scope a nearby machine and you have to stand a ways away from the destroyed machine to use any scopes. This exposes you to a lot more fire from nearby machines and is very annoying. This is a new feature?
PC, solo or co-op.
Can’t take a screen shot due to the scope will not come up all the way.
Have been noticing that annoying problem the last few weeks. Have to do a fast loot everything on close machine causing the problem. I don’t remember this happing before.
I think I started noticing it after the RECON update. It wasn’t there before. You can’t “lean” with your character around something so you get as close as you can and view out your scope.
May work for dead machines, but not for doors, cars and other interactable stuff. And to be true, I don’t want to loot every machine completly. It doesn’t help if I can’t move any more because of weight.
You are right on the doors and cars and such. I usually stay well inside of doors and I don’t hide behind cars since I was blown up using one for cover a long time ago. The biggest problems are when destroying FINX forts. Once you get enough blown up to start running through destroying shield gens there are dead runners everywhere. Hard to bring up scope without finding a clear spot.
Yeah, that’s with everything. If you’re close, you can’t shoulder your weapon to aim. I can see in the case of walls and door perhaps if you’re right up against them, but that’ not exactly what’s happening here. You can be as far as about 1 metre back from something and still can’t aim. And that makes busy, close up fights or killing shield generators in the presence of a lot of dead machines very difficult.
