Ойындар
By popular demand I am back with a Holdfast: Nations At War tutorial / Guide on how to aim. I am by no means an expert but have played the game for a while and have a good understanding of the bullet drop mechanics and hopefully this video will give you a few tips that'll help you vanquish your foes :-D

My problem is that I am aiming at a 5 meter distance dead on and still miss

It can sometime be a bit like that, remember this video was edited to show how It should be done, I often miss as well :-)

That's not just luck and there's more to the shooting than in this video. If you're playing on na and you're from the eu you will need to aim to the left of them, imagine the shot is coming from your shoulder not the end of the musket or pistal. When you spawn go to a tree and shoot it from 3m away and determin how servere this is, as it does change daily. If you keep missing all of a sudden the swing may have changed so try shooting shoulders hight at 30m to the the right of them. But usually sticking to the left side of them works as a rule.at 30m = A mm left for riflemen, left side of shoulder for musket and pistal is hard to explain. This technique is true but less so on your regional server.

My first game and kill was a flute man. I successfully got to the enemy's back line by going around the edge of the map and convinced them to let me stay, a chinese player wanted to kill me but wiffed because I ducked. I shot him back and killed him and then his team 'rightfully' avenged him, the jerks.

Yeah they can be a little over powered at times, i'm surprised they haven't reduced the reload rate, to say half the speed of the musket, that would at least slow down the damage. + yeah they can be hard to get, it seems to be a first come first serve so those who can load in first get to grab them. Having said that almost all the shots that can be done with the rifle can also be done with the musket its just a lot harder.

I love this game, but mostly because of the clusterfuck of people using proximity voice chat. Never been in such a quiet match as you're showing here, and I don't intend to! Great video though. Thanks a bunch, good sir!

However, for this i wanted to be able to make reliable long distance shots for the recording, it still took me about 8 hours to record and edit it all, if I was trying to get them all with the regular infantry I think i'd still be going haha

Yes I was thinking the same a musket is still highly accurate at 50m. Even at 70m it still somewhat accurate. The developers don't know the accuracy of those guns, I'm pretty sure they have been only watching movies or something. I don't even think they have shot one. The belief that they are that inaccurate is a complete misconception. The Rifles in reality shot extremely well at 100 and far passed that. They tried to nail the accuracy in game but to me I think they did a terrible job the only thing they did right was add bullet drop.
