Im fairly certain that now of the fore grips have any effect at all after testing. - Page 2

I dont have a saw upgraded.
Could one of you who has one do some wall tests on high graphics and see if its actually doing anything?

I do have a GR-22(medic gun which has the most extreme sideways recoil I have seen_ and the advanced gripit has no noticeable effect on it.

Foreward grips have at least One benefit: They make me feel better. Empirical evidence be damned.

WEll i was getting that effect too - until I shot about 30 patterns on the wall.

I tested the bullet spray patterns with and without foregrip on the GD-7F. With the foregrip it noticeably pulled to the left less during firing. This was before game update 1 though, I haven't tried recently.

Thats my primary gun. When I tested it the other day - I could not see any cinsistant difference either way.

It could be that the patch fubared it or it could be intermittent bugs.

Yeah that's probably because yo crazy ass can't tell the difference between grip and NV scope.

What I notice is that while ADSing, the pattern of my bullets seems tighter left-to-right than if I do not use a foregrip. It seems to suppress horizontal outlier bullets, especially when going full auto. However, it does not completely eliminate them. You still have to control your fire while ADSing and the gun can still jump in unexpected ways.

I also prefer foregrip over laser sights anyway if for no other reason than I want to avoid that giant red lightsaber thing the laser sight emits that gives away your position.

I heard that doesn't actually work. If someone can confirm or deny that, it would be nice, but I hear that turning it off only turns it off for you.

I tested fwd grips to regular set-ups several times and I have a hard time noticing the difference in bullet spread.

Which makes me think that the fwd grip effect will only become noticeable over distances (which makes sense) or that it is a placebo attachment that just makes me feel bad ass.

It definitely has a slight effect on my NS11a. Try strafing while ADS and shooting on a wall, there is a difference. If you don't move there is not really any improvement.
