Stoker Ironsights


(Kiris) #1

Am I the only person that has problems with the ironsights on the original Stoker rifle?

It’s basically unusable because the ironsight is so horrible and the recoil is all over the place.
I love the gun when shooting “from the hip” but doing any long range shooting with the ironsights is impossible.

I just want to make sure I’m not crazy, does anyone else agree?

I’ve seen players use the IS on stoker to great effect, but had always been struggling myself as well.

Guess some CS people really got a handle for the recoil; for me, aiming for the head is erally hard; as the gun will kick upwards, making the player disappear behind the weapon on the hud.

I play Stoker the most out of all the mercs. I love the original rifle and have no problems with the IS.

They did some nerfing/changes to the original gun to balance it out a bit but it’s still fine, imo.

I think people that come from CSS/CoD/BF use iron sights WAY too much in this game on all the guns/mercs.

The Original gun for just about every merc is accurate without using IS.

Truly the only reason to use IS is so you get a nice zoominess with your gun when someone is far away, hiding behind something , or you want to shoot a head poking out or a sniper’s motion sensor, etc.

Other than that… maybe customize your crosshair, keep it at head level, and hip fire.

There aren’t any iron sights in counter strike. Personally I’ve never found it useful ever to use iron sights. The mobility penalty just isn’t worth it. I come from UT and Quake so my WASDing is above average and tracking is really easy in this game.

And Stokers iron’s are the normal standard AK irons. I doubt they will/can change it.
