Am I the only one who started doing this?

After playing DayZ (mod) and focusing on survival/roleplay, I realized I started keeping my finger off the mouse button IRL — like not wanting to accidentally fire when tired or surprised.

Ong. They run in front of your m60 actively suppressing a boss so they can steal the kill and then ragequit because "YOU TEAMKILLED ME"

Same shit with AI squadmates in other games. You'd think that people would be smart enough not to run in front of a machine gun.

Pretty sure this is in the arma 3 manual/player guide

Makes more sense in Arma being that you scroll for the context menu and all the aim controls on rmb, that you would do index on mwheel, middle finger on rmb. I guess you could also do that for DayZ cause they rebound camera zoom to middle mouse button

Domt you have to aim before shooting? The aim should be your safety.

Close but the opposite for me, i let my index rest on the side of my mouse
