задумка прикольная но мод сырой

Updated the description to show the hotkey.

If any server owner wants to help me get this running in a game please contact me.

Thats a yikes from me.

If I wanted to use this in my server, how could I make it work? Does it only work in the test map?
gotdank? 16 Sep, 2019 @ 7:42pm 
What are the controls?
SonicTheWarthog 4 Sep, 2019 @ 4:24pm 
and btw, the jihadis always do this so i think letting the jihadis do this would be great
SonicTheWarthog 4 Sep, 2019 @ 4:22pm 
@SuperSoviet, there are no civilians in the area, also if you are outnumbered and causing diversion, then why not blindfire... if someone has their sights on your position and you are taking accurate sniper fire, blind fire is good so other people can move maybe, it might confuse the sniper(s)
SonicTheWarthog 4 Sep, 2019 @ 4:18pm 
hello squad devs, you need to make this
☢GHOST☣ 1 Sep, 2019 @ 8:24pm 
Why are the DEV's not funding this?
Supersoviet 30 Aug, 2019 @ 3:23pm 
"Are you saying people don't blind fire in war?"
No, and as you're asking this question you must be aware I never came close to saying this. Of course it happens.

I'm saying it's not taught in any professional military because it goes against all modern ROE.
If it happens, it's necessity and not encouraged. Whether it's a responsible use of force is opinion.

Again war crimes have to do with evidence. If you're on trial and your squad says you were blind firing, you are in violation of the 'rules (of engagement)' and this is why it's not a good idea to accept or condone the activity.
Also, take your anger meds.
JeremyRS 30 Aug, 2019 @ 7:37am 
he is right, and it does happen look at any funker video on YT, but you do have a legal obligation for every round you send down range. there is no black and white just grey.
Supersoviet 28 Aug, 2019 @ 2:20pm 
You quite evidently don't understand what the concept of laws in war implies, like the other opinionists here.

Laws in war are in place to direct the process of preparation for and reparation from warfare. They do not control what happens on the battlefield, to attempt this would be pointless.

Now that you actually understand what laws in war means (in the most basic sense,) it's a simple thing to understand why 'blind firing' is equivocally frowned upon. It's not taught or encouraged in any 1st world training (even in cqc situations) and admitting you'd done it in any after action report would gather ire.
Khalon 24 Aug, 2019 @ 10:21pm 
Wannabe soldiers over here talking about laws of war lol, it's all bullshit. modern wars are against people without any consideration of any law (most of the times from both sides) blind firing could be very useful in specific situations.
Supersoviet 24 Aug, 2019 @ 5:03pm 
Wow, say anything about modern warfare doctrine and the avalanche of cringey keyboard warriors will follow. True also on steam workshop comments I see.

Rules are not useless in war. War isn't crime and it isn't a drunken brawl, children.
If you think they are, you would be considered useless in any shooting war by your CO, your squad and the enemy. And you would probably get brutalized much harder than any brutality you can imagine being able to dish out.

It's a cool mod but a gaming novelty. Blind firing is not a reality in 21st century warfare unless you're a villager conscript fighting a bushwar. In fact that's probably a good analogue for your combat performance right there.

Laws of war .. Like when drunks wanna fight, they think they are the new boxing champ. And when you kick their kneecap of and poke their eyes out or put a table in their face, they say its not fair.

If someone wanna polka with me, laws of any f-ing war. I assure you, I will do what ever, use what ever, so im not the one that will go down first.

Cant fight back against someone, then get better and think faster.. Or stay entirely away from the "dancefloor"
.⁧⁧neo 24 Aug, 2019 @ 6:34am 
its not a crime if there's no witness

laws of war are useless
Wiggly 24 Aug, 2019 @ 3:17am 
cool concept, but I think this will only promote incorrect weapons handling (you don't blindfire irl, against laws of war) and also will probably be prone to irritate by potential team killing and being killed by someone who you have no chance of fighting back against.

DEV MUST ADD THIS IN GAME

allah will lead the bullets too the enemy
Larks 22 Aug, 2019 @ 4:19am 
You should make the recoil based on the orientation of the weapon. What I mean is that the rifle dp recoil back and up if the gun is fireing on a stardard position but if its sidewais it will continue having the same local recoil but, on global coordinates, it will be on the horizontal plane and not the vertical.

I'ts just a thought but it would look and feel cooler than what it is now

Dobakjang 21 Aug, 2019 @ 6:10am 
it should be featured in game
Johnny Chimpo 2 21 Aug, 2019 @ 4:30am 
may allah guide your bullets brothers
праздник доброты 20 Aug, 2019 @ 5:58pm 
nice job, can you please also implement more features like that ? I saw blindfiring only in Tarkov

FreakinCnitis 20 Aug, 2019 @ 9:44am 
how the hell do I activate it
Zaren 20 Aug, 2019 @ 9:16am 
good concept for a game, but you have to be in a pretty desperat situation to throw away accuracy and the knowlagde of what you are shooting at. i for once have got it knocked into my head in the military that you are to never blindfire.

@Chomusuke, blind firing grenade throws might be possible.
Chomusuke 19 Aug, 2019 @ 12:17pm 
you guys should add a blind thorwing too like there is a door and enemys in house so you can throw nades near from the door without show yourself ı think everybody understand that
Cormick 19 Aug, 2019 @ 3:37am 
Very nice

The concept of Blindfireing was invented by something called Real Life (you can`t download this if some pleb wonders) and it`s actually used by Militaries in CQB situations.
DemonPuke 18 Aug, 2019 @ 10:18am 
this is so sick
Mr. Z  [author] 18 Aug, 2019 @ 9:37am 
I did base it on the Escape From Tarkov mechanic, if it were feasible I'd do it like Red Orchestra 2 but that would require making a complete cover system.
Spoogles 18 Aug, 2019 @ 9:33am 
i may be wrong here but, i'm pretty sure the concept of blindfiring was not invented by battlestate games. again, may be wrong. who knows!
Tavish 18 Aug, 2019 @ 8:31am 
definitely not ripped from escape from tarkov
DemGloves 18 Aug, 2019 @ 7:08am 
EPIC!
Ludwig Steiner 18 Aug, 2019 @ 6:57am 
@Bitsy

Like they did in Red Orchestra 2, it works super good !
SoaP 17 Aug, 2019 @ 6:15pm 
Perfect for that Taliban "spray n pray" milsim
Sopni 17 Aug, 2019 @ 2:16pm 
any servers using this yet?
Timmeh 17 Aug, 2019 @ 10:03am 
I'd like to see this mechanic integrated into the base game.
Nice work.
Nib 16 Aug, 2019 @ 10:25pm 
Yes, now I can stylishly clear out hab blocks with my gun held over my head...But in reality, I think this mechanic needs more automation to keep gameplay streamlined. Otherwise you're gonna have comedic firefights rather than more intense and immersive ones.
RetailPale 16 Aug, 2019 @ 7:57pm 
Very cool looking mod, great idea!
Mr. Z  [author] 16 Aug, 2019 @ 7:20pm 
I shall investigate.
wasti 16 Aug, 2019 @ 3:52pm 
how did you compensate for how the weapons actually fire? (using the camera look at location as the end target for the line trace or projectile spawn vector) I fear this might have gone unnoticed, try running the command sq.showweapontraces 1 in console in sdk to see if the projectiles are flying as they should. (maybe something like this will finally force owi to correct the way bullets/projectiles fire from infantry weapons)

bc the dev doesnt want Squad become middle east untrained militia threwing rock at each other XD
