Shooting while using vehicles | Forums

[GreenBunker09]

Dear Ubisoft

Can we please get the option/animation to shoot from a boat while driving??

Many times when I'm playing solo I want to sit in a boat and use my sniper rifle to snipe an enemy?
The same goes for all vehicles

Thanks

That's not shooting while driving though. Many have mentioned the desire to have squad AI drive vehicles so the player can take command of the turret while moving, though after seeing what a mess the companion AI in Far Cry can be, I'm not sure that's a good idea. Ubi still have a LONG way to go to get their squad AI to the point that they can do that without making what's supposed to be a tactical shooter look like a chaotic arcade shooter.

I remember in original Far Cry I often shot from boats while stopped, and even from hang gliders, but that is again more circus stuff than real tactical practices. A highly trained sniper on a ghost squad is going to want something solid to perch on to shoot that kill shot reliably without missing and alerting everyone.

I get it though why many want things in this game that are not true to real world military practices, because they did make the game a bit arcade in some ways, especially the crazy car chase shootouts.
