In Response To: Re: Halo: Combat Evolved and Bloom (uberfoop) : Actually, no. This is the point my video makes. In the 2nd of impact hits, I : was releasing the trigger between shots, and yet the overall spread was : fairly large. : Basically, the first video that my post links to has created a lot of : confusion, as many people look at it and think that Halo 1 has : RoF-dependant bloom. My video tries to clear up the confusion by : demonstrating that the bloom is probably trigger-pull-style-dependant and : not RoF-dependant; I'm claiming that the confusion started because in Halo : 1, "firing semi-automatically" can actually mean different : things, and the first video doesn't take this into account. Presumably, : the player in that video was firing similar to the type-2 shooting in my : video. Actually, you're right. It's not ROF-dependent regardless of whether it's fired full-auto or semi-auto, but rather a flat value. When testing it just now, it appears that when firing in full-auto, the first shot is subject to the 0.2° spread figure, while each subsequent shot is subject to the 2° figure. I included tests with 3-round and 4-round bursts at 20 meters, and while the first shot hit within the reticle every time, the second, third, and (for the 4-round burst tests) fourth shots would often hit well off-center, sometimes even nearly the 2 degree maximum. So, spread on the M6D is fully dependent on whether or not you keep holding down the trigger after the first round, not whether you pace your shots.
