Wait you can fire from the hip in goldeneye?
- ericlewis 4y agoYes. I’d argue zooming was less likely, the AK47 that looked like a bottle of Chianti and you sprayed everywhere being a good example. It was really hard to try and use the aiming mode but key to levels (I forget exact name) where it’s a maze that people can end up on different stories. The one with all the hidden doors is what I’m referring to.
- ericlewis 4y agoPerhaps it didn’t look like it was from the hip - but for all intents and purposes it was. Holding down the Z button and aiming with the joystick was “down the sights”. I don’t recall if accuracy differs much in either scenario but the Z button version definitely did differ in accuracy when you were panic-shooting.
- hombre_fatal 4y agoI just mean shooting the gun without holding R to make the reticle appear. IIRC Goldeneye even had horizontal-axis auto-aim which helped.
- gridspy 4y agoYeah, realistic guns and sights were only introduced to FPS several years later. Those were a major draw of Counter Strike. You'll find the same in Quake, Quake 2, Doom, etc
