Part 1 : The "D" word........

Apart from the previously mentioned "prone spam" fix, this is the only deviation change made for 0.9 that applies to all weapons.

WEAPONS: Deviation on ALL hand held weapons modified. Full settle time for ANY weapon is not required unless you've been on the move for 5 seconds. This works linearly, so if you've been on the move for 1 second, you'll only require 1/5th of the settle time, for 2 seconds, 2/5ths etc. (jaymz) 11388

It's safe to say that basic deviation in 0.9 will function just like it does in 0.87 but with two major improvements,

1. Instaproning will be completely useless (unlike previously where hitting "z" and spraying would win every CQB engagement)
2. You will be able to make minor "wasd" corrections with almost no accuracy loss (unlike previously where just tapping any movement key reset all deviation to minimal accuracy)

No, we don't have leaning, sway, weapon collision or any of several features that can properly simulate weaponry handling in the FPS realm. But what we do have in place for 0.9 is a system that's far superior than what we're used to and will, dare I say, greatly improve both CQB and medium/long range firefights!

Part 2 : Why do I hear Hueys everywhere!!! Oh god!!!! Wait, what? I can't hear you, it sounds like there's a Huey inside my brain!

You all know what I'm talking about. You're on Jabal, or Barracuda, or Ramiel......and the invisible helicopters of doom are everywhere. Well, fear no more! Because thanks to hours of brainstorming, Ancientman's Aussie intuition (which before this I never believed in), db's magical scriptorium of wonders and my......something! 0.9 will be sound bug free!

Disclaimer : We haven't fully tested the sound bug fix, but we're pretty sure it works..... <- famous last words

So.......I leave you all with comedian Bill Bailey on "Starsky & Hutch Music" : Comedian Bill Bailey - Starsky & Hutch Music - Video

"but we're pretty it works"
You're pretty? Well... I guess .

Great job nonetheless .

No more sound bug aye? Too good to be true me thinks

No more overly harsh deviation (Within reason), no more soundbug AND Bill Bailey.

Epic. Win.

CQB, we are together again
i hope ))

"I'm pretty, it works."

awesome

Good , thank you for this.

Amazing news

THANK YOU GOD! This deviation change is so brilliant I love you. This is worthy of a realease in its own.

Yay for sound bug fix. It should work, I mean, it worked when I tested it . No, it works, it has to work, if it doesn't work, no... It'll work. IT WORKS!

Maybe we will eventually see a Chinook or Lynx on Al Basrah again then?

Can we get helicopters back on Basrah and the likes then?

Wait, I think I missed the "aforementioned pronespam fix".

What is the pronespam fix? The 1.5 patch prone deviation?

Also,

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE HELICOPTERS ON BASRAH?!?!?!?

Epic sh*t happening right here...

If you will take a look at blog post with map loading screens you will see that there is a version of basrah with attack helicopters

i came, twice

If you continue to hear Hueys everywhere, you may have post traumatic stress disorder.

But seriously I can't wait to test out the new deviation system, even if it just improves close combat it'll be epic.
