For those who don't know, the accuracy stat is actually the "hipfire accuracy" stat.
The control stat is how quickly a gun recenters when you move it while not ADS.
Because laser sights reduce control, they actually make your hipfire worse. I think laser sights should give a small accuracy and a small control bonus, with a downside of some kind, maybe a small first shot kick penalty.

they just shouldn't change how the gun fires entirely
maybe add a bit of weight to the gun, but it shouldn't perform any differently
karmic ocean
control does jack shit, and for there's no recentering in this game at all

Putting weight on the front of a gun will affect the recoil of the weapon, technically

its actually how much you gun moves when you do. you can see its effect while shooting while ADS, especially with snipers(RPGs too)
karmic ocean
*no one knows for sure tho
gentle valve
the effect on ADS at least is known, since its easy to see with 100 accuracy. Hipfire is still guess work
gusty jolt
Damn I didn't expect this to get downvoted. For me most of the side attachments are useless and I don't use them, excluding rangefinder on DMRs/snipers.
I would've like laser sight to have a real purpose with a downside of some kind so there's more choice to kitting a weapon
gentle valve
if it was a tac laser and we could use the canted weapon at anypoint it would be more useful, but right now its just there to learn where you gun moves in hipfire early on.

Yeah there's hardly a spread in hipfire. It's not like other games, it's basically a laser coming out of the gun model that isn't centered in the middle of the screen. The laser sight just tells you where the bullet actually goes.

*where gun is pointing, but close enough

it has no real downsides and helps with hipfire

Are there cases where the bullet goes where the gun isnt pointing?

honestly it feels like it, but its actually a little off if your close to your target, and far enough that its beyond your zero

There is some bullet spread (accuracy) but in general no, wherever your gun is pointing is where the bullets and your pings will come from. There is no bullet function difference between ads/hipfire

That's what I thought

Throw on a quick mag, the grip of your choice and go hipfire things with the pp19. Its very amusing and a good highlight of the hipfire mechanics as they stand
karmic ocean
there is hipfire accuracy which seems to be less accurate then pin point
and then there's ads accuracy where the bullet is basically pin point and comes out of the camera
muted scaffold
Bullets do not appear from your player camera
gentle valve
Bullets do not appear from your player camera
shot enough walls to agree
karmic ocean
Bullets do not appear from your player camera
they do when ads
gentle valve
no they dont it just seems that way, but height over bore does exist
muted scaffold
Nope, they come out of the gun.
karmic ocean
when ads, it's rather apparent when using a scorpion with nvgs

This will be the last attention I give the topic but, bullets come from the end of the gun. If you have a situation where that does not happen, it either 1. a bug or 2. you are wrong.

i have tested - screenshotted - that shit, head glitching wouldn't be possible and night time shooting would be a lot better
gentle valve
having used the guns in this game and peeked corners, if you don't not move far enough the bullets will hit the wall even if your scope is clear, its more obvious on the larger scopes since you tend to move farther with them.
karmic ocean
let me guess, you only started to ads while peeking?
gentle valve
...what?
anyway, you can also see it happen when shooting over things, again, much more obvious with the higher power scopes
karmic ocean
yeah it really only does that once properly ads, it's weird af ik
but bullets come out of both the barrel and the camera

The guns don't recentre at all in hipfire. The only description of the control stat from anywhere online that might have some truth to it is from the wiki:
'Control - How fast the scope will return to its starting position after firing'
And the accuracy bloom is so low that it won't make any difference hipfiring
