Do you play with the view models on or off as scout?

[N0WBIE]

For some reason turning the view models off just makes my performance poorer than turning it on.

I normally keep all of mine on, except for the Spy's ambassador, in which I have a script for.

People say view models are distracting, I say no view models are very distracting.

Fov of 70 or 90 helps

I'm used to 54 I use 16:9

I found a nice balance between having them on/off in using cl_first_person_uses_world_model 1. Usually turn that off if I'm playing demo / spy / medic for various reasons, but it's made my scout / pyro / heavy gameplay a lot better.

Ah, I hate FOV of 54, it looks like I'm holding the gun to my face.

Hey, everyone has a favorite FOV.

Well having it at 54 can make it more distracting as the scattergun reloading takes up most of the screen

Edit:spelling error corrected (I hate myself)

so you like having part of your screen blocked by a stupid looking scatter?

Barely see it with an FOV of 90, and it doesn't really bother me.

Almost felt like throwing up at higher fovs

I turn them off for scout because I feel like it helps my aim but I keep them on for all the other classes cause im used to it

You do realise that higher FOV means you can see more of the world around you and therefore will perform better because you get surprised less? :s

I also have a viewmodel FOV of 85/90 (can't remember) when I do have viewmodels on (have scripts which turn them off for a few weapons)

 

[N0WBIE]

I turn my view models on because I have to remind my self:I NOW HAVE A FUCKING SCATTERGUN, I NOW HAVE A FUCKING PISTOL

 

[Ruelel]

all this fov talk makes me want 110 fov :-(
