Ok so basicly nyxtis and I play dod togeather all the time and over all i think we do pretty well. However i basicly suck with the kar and the einfield and i cant figure out why. those of you who used to play tfc with me know that i have pretty rediculosly good aim and i can pretty safely say that i think i should be hitting people yet i miss for no apperent reason. and yes i do stop moving / crouch and such. Anyways any tips that would help me not suck with these guns or an explination as to why i suck with them would be alot of help. thx---- Piggeh

Try switching your crosshairs. I switched to a red dot and I think it improved my aim. Also, I always aim at the chest area because the hitboxes get weird when they are in certain positions. Also, I always seem to hit moving targets by shooting just behind them. If you practice a lot, you'll find your own techniques.

You actually dont even need to crouch. A new x-hair might work for you, but it really all about the aim. Unlike auto guns where recoil is the problem, with the bolt action guns it's a hit or miss situation. Also reaction time is a key. If you see an enemy, the faster you can stop and kill them the better.

Also straffing is a very affective tool wen shooting from behind a wall. Straffing is where u move side to side from behind the wall to the open space where u shoot ur target and then go back to hide behind the wall for a split second and then back out again! u can also double shoot the enfield and kar Good Luck
