Surfing through the psychostats2, I noticed that for most players, the hitbox they got the most was the right arm. I find this strange.... is there a reason the right arm is so much hit?

Because the other arm is making a peace sign?

Because the other arm is in their pocket?

Because the other arm is playing a piano?

Because the other arm is smoking a cigarette?

When someone's shooting, their right arm is raised. I guess that when you're trying to shoot someone in the chest, you're hitting their arm most of the time.

It's pretty scary that the body shot percentage is so low. :\

Yep this is why garand users are all angry bitter souls

And yet any thompson user can still get a random headshot 50% of the time at any range Welcome to Day of Call of Duty?

Doesn't the right arm show more when you are facing someone straight on. The left arm is holding the gun so it is straight out, exposing less of it to the enemy.

yeah, I think stevo is right. When somewhat face to face, the left arm has a smaller crosss section (should that be one word or two?)

Well....

At least two ss's

Most peeps are right handed causing them to over-compensate to the right also.
