Hi,

More and more games make it mandatory to ADS (shoulder aiming) in order to be accurate while firing.


Especially for Space Marine 2, we can agree that there is a lot of close quarter combat, hence the need for hip-firing a lot.


However, hip-fire in Space Marine 2 decreases A LOT accuracy by increasing A LOT bullet spreading.


Could you make it so hip-firing is as much accurate as ADS (shoulder aiming) firing ?


The goal is to have fun and I think a lot of people like to use hip fire because this way we see our character and more of the surroundings.


  • Example: Max Payne 3 is one of the greatest 3rd person shooter because the bullet goes exactly where your reticle is, either if you hip fire or shoot ADS.
  • Meaning it is not mandatory to have bullet spreading to have a good game, at the contrary and especially in a 3rd person game. 
  • Having to be precise by aiming your reticle at the right place is the only thing that should matter.

So much yes.

This is a third person shooter, and hack n slash game, the idea of inaccurate hip fire is very out of place.

your example or max payne 3 is great, hell max payne 2 & 3 is like that.

What more, space marine 1 also doesnt have hip fire inaccuracy, you can shoot where you look at, but to be able to pull headshot you need to ads.

All Gears of War game also doesn’t have hipfire inaccuracy, you can hip fire, blind fire from cover.

The only things those games force you to ads is the bullet spread. You have to aim to control the bullet spread. And the recoil (how upward the gun move after firing).

To conclude, so much yes, if emperor allow, i would infinitely upvote this. You can hipfire and the bullet where you aim, but the spread is in line to max spread from when you ads so that you have to aim to reduce those spread (much like gears of war series).

to illustrate my suggestion/point, here is a link of Gears of War 3 blindfire with automatic rifle (the lancer):

As you can see, the bullets go into a stream, but is not like a laser beam, it spread around very close to where you aim. It is like firing at max spread when ads. Therefore, Ads is still needed so that you can accurately score headshot and all.

+1, already made an Idea or five on this. It's like all the Primaris marines got parkinsons. If you hip fire, 99% of your shots will make a nice circle around your target but not hit.
